Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0038] like Figures 1-6As shown, a digital control device for the lower ejector of a precision hot forging under heavy load includes a machine body worktable 1. A lower die 2 is mounted on the machine body worktable 1. The lower die 2 has a cavity 3 that matches the forging 19.

A ground-mounted support 5 is mounted on a foundation 20 below the lower die 2. A worm gear 6 is rotatably mounted on the support 5. The worm gear 6 is connected to a worm 7, and the worm 7 is connected to a gear reduction mechanism 8. The worm gear 6 has a thread at its center. Hole 9, the threaded hole 9 is vertically provided with an adjusting screw 10 aligned with the through hole 4.

Two balance cylinders 13 are symmetrically provided between the upper side wall of the adjusting screw 10 and the machine body worktable 1. The support 5 is provided with a stroke limiting mechanism 14 for limiting the stroke of the adjusting screw 10. Addressing the problem that existing hot forging forming processes of ultra-large cup rods of different lengths with the same diameter require multiple sets of molds, the focus is on overcoming the challenges related to the increased strength, size, and manufacturing cost of the forging machine body worktable base due to the heavy load impact and huge vibration generated by ultra-large forming. The research focuses on the applied structural technology of precision hot forging basic equipment. This innovative, heavy-load-based precision hot forging ejector digital control technology utilizes a traditional lower die 2 with a through hole 4 at the bottom to accommodate long, cup-shaped forgings of the same diameter. A floor-mounted support 5, gear reduction mechanism 8, worm gear mechanism, and adjusting screw 10 are mounted on the foundation 20 directly below the lower die 2.

With the cooperation of wedge A and wedge B, the locking plate is driven to press the adjusting screw. After the adjustment is completed, install the forging in the mold cavity of the lower mold. The lower end of the forging passes through the through hole and acts on the upper end of the adjusting screw. Then, the forging can be die forged.
