MODULAR CLAMPING SYSTEM
A modular clamping device for a tool or a workpiece includes: a pallet having a plurality of x-y references and a plurality of z references for alignment with a chuck and a clamping unit, which is arranged in a clamped state concentrically at an outside of the chuck. In the clamped state, a tubular part is arranged concentrically between the pallet and the clamping unit, the tubular part being connected to the pallet by a first connecting mechanism and connected to the clamping unit by a second connecting mechanism.
MAIN SHAFT FIXTURE
A main shaft fixture for fixing a main shaft on a wind turbine during installation and repair work on heavy parts of the wind turbine nacelle, in the case where the fixture is formed of several sections for mounting on stable structural parts in the nacelle, including the nacelle's bottom frame. The main shaft fixture has adjustable pressure mandrels with tap shoes, which cause the fixture to be usable regardless of the turbine main shaft geometry, such that it can be mounted without fixing the rotor. The main shaft fixture also has facilities for mounting of a lightweight crane and a self-hoisting crane with a ground-based winch, respectively, as well as a rotor lock which, in combination with actuators of the main shaft fixture, enables the main shaft and the main shaft bearing to be sufficiently displaced vertically from its bearing in the nacelle to service or replace the bearing.

Compensating chuck
A compensating chuck for concentrically clamping workpieces. The chuck has a drive unit having two pairs of entrainment members, wherein the entrainment members are preferably slidingly mounted, are respectively movable in paired relationship, and are so coupled to a respective one of the main jaws that a relative movement of a respective pair causes a synchronous movement of adjacent main jaws and that both a relative movement relative to each other with respectively different movement components and also a synchronous movement of the adjacent entrainment members in the same direction respectively causes a relative movement of adjacent main jaws.
Aluminum alloy hub lathe fixture
An aluminum alloy hub lathe fixture, which includes a main plate, a mounting seat, a hydraulic power clamping head, a pull rod, a sliding seat, a connecting pin, a fan-shaped clamping jaw, a sealing cover, a deflection block, a deflection shaft, a centrifugal force balance block, a centrifugal mechanism base, a spring and screws, wherein the main plate and the mounting seat are connected together through screws, so that a housing of the entire fixture is formed; the hydraulic power clamping head is fixed on the mounting seat through screws; one end of the pull rod is mounted on the hydraulic power clamping head through screws, and the other end of the pull rod is connected with the sliding seat through the connecting pin; the fan-shaped clamping jaw is fixed on the sliding seat through screws.
Power chuck
A power chuck includes a housing in which there is arranged a drive unit having a traction guide means moveable in the direction of a clamping axis. There are arranged two pairs of mutually diametrically opposite base jaws. The base jaws are guided radially, in the housing substantially perpendicularly to the clamping axis, and the drive unit is adapted to convert the movement of the traction guide means into the movement of the base jaws. According to the invention, it is proposed that the drive unit for each base jaw has a slider which is in engagement with the base jaw and which is moveable with a movement component on a circular path about the clamping axis.
Chuck apparatus
A chuck apparatus grips a workpiece by a gripping section having a pair of chuck members. The chuck apparatus is equipped with a cover member and pressing members. The cover member includes insertion holes through which fingers of the chuck members are inserted, and seal members that surround the insertion holes and abut against the fingers. The cover member is attached to a body so as to cover base portions of the chuck members, and is elastically deformable so as to follow displacement of the chuck members. The pressing members press the seal members against the fingers.
