Surgical instrument
A tool, in particular for use as a surgical drill, has a main tool body which, in order to be connected to a tool attachment unit, has a fixing unit which is provided to be at least partly unusable after the main tool body has been detached from the tool attachment unit. The fixing unit has at least one form-fit element, which is provided to accept axial tensile forces in order to axially secure the main tool body to the tool attachment unit. The fixing unit has an assembly direction and a deflection element which points in the assembly direction, and which is provided for movably attaching the form-fit element to the main tool body. It is proposed that the form-fit element and the deflection element have different directions of extension.
Tool arrangement
A tool arrangement with a screw-in tool and a tool receiver, the screw-in tool having a thread for engagement in a counter thread on the tool receiver. The counter thread and the thread have different thread contours and therefore, in the screwed condition, these adapt to one another by elastic deformation.
Cutting tool
A cutting tool including an insert and a holder to which the insert is secured. The insert has a rod with a substantially circular transverse cross-section. The insert includes a shank portion and a cutting edge portion. The cutting edge portion is located at an end portion continuous with the shank portion. In the cutting edge portion, one end of a cutting edge ridge protrudes toward the periphery of the rod. When the insert is secured to the holder, the cutting edge ridge has a negative radial rake angle.
Tool holder
A tool holder comprising a base element, a deformable receiver for clamping a tool and at least one locking element configured for preventing an axial extraction of the tool from the tool holder through engaging a corresponding opposite element at the tool, wherein the at least one locking element is integrally configured in one piece with the receiver.
TOOL BITS AND BIT HOLDERS HAVING NON-CIRCULAR CROSS-SECTIONS
A tool bit connectable to a tool. The tool bit including a tool body having a working end portion, an insertion end portion, and an outer surface formed on the insertion end portion. The insertion end portion defines an end of the tool body and configured to be coupled to the tool. The tool bit also includes a non-circular profile formed on the tool body and partially defining the outer surface, and an alignment region positioned between the non-circular profile and the end of the tool body. The alignment region partially defines the outer surface to facilitate alignment of the non-circular profile with the tool.
HYDRAULIC EXPANSION CHUCK
The invention relates to a hydraulic expansion chuck comprising a main body (1) that extends along a rotational or longitudinal central axis (2) and is composed of a shaft part (20), for directly or indirectly coupling the hydraulic expansion chuck to a module of a modular tool system or to a machine spindle, and a clamping part (30), joined to the shaft part in a rotationally and axially fixed manner for receiving and clamping a shank tool. The shaft part comprises a receiving socket which extends towards the clamping part and has a central socket-opening in which a connection pin (31) of the clamping part, which pin extends towards the shaft part, is form-fittingly received. According to the invention, the clamping part comprises a stop which is radially offset from the connection pin and axially strikes the receiving socket.
HYDRAULIC EXPANDING CHUCK
A hydraulic expanding chuck having a main body which extends along a rotational axis and has a clamping part for receiving and clamping a shank tool and a shank part having a hollow shank for directly or indirectly coupling the hydraulic expanding chuck to a module of a modular tool system or to a machine spindle. The clamping part has a central receiving opening and, around the receiving opening, at least one pressure chamber to which fluid pressure can be applied and which is separated from the receiving opening via an elastically yielding expansion wall and is connected via a pressure duct to a pressure-generating device situated in the main body. The pressure-generating device is arranged axially in the region between the receiving opening and the hollow shank in a central cut-out, which is coaxial with the receiving opening and which opens into the hollow shank.
Cutting tool and method of assembling cutting tool
A cutting tool comprises a shank having an insertion portion protruding from a shank main body, a head in which an insertion hole into which the insertion portion is inserted is formed, and a spacer disposed in a gap between the shank main body and the head. The insertion portion has a tapered outer circumferential surface which gradually decreases in diameter from the other side toward one side in the axial direction. The insertion hole has a tapered inner circumferential surface coming into surface contact with the tapered outer circumferential surface. A head end surface of the head which faces the other side in the axial direction comes into surface contact with a surface facing one side in the axial direction of the spacer.
Tool retainer
A tool retainer is provided. The tool has a retainer sleeve having a longitudinal external tab to engage with an internal recessed radial groove with a tool holder, and wherein the retainer sleeve has two internal radial tabs that engage with a recessed groove in a rotating tool shank. A cutting tool assembly including a cutting bit and the retainer sleeve is provided.
Hydraulic expanding chuck
The invention relates to a hydraulic expanding chuck for gripping a tool, for example a drill or a milling tool, comprising: a clamping part having an expansion sleeve having a central receiving opening for receiving and clamping the tool; and a connection part, in particular having a HSK connection. According to the invention, the expansion sleeve has at least two pressure chambers, which are designed to run around the central receiving opening, which are arranged at an axial distance relative to one another, and which can bulge when the tool received in the central receiving opening is subjected to fluid pressure. The at least two pressure chambers are connected to one another by a fluid channel.
