HYDRO CHUCK
A hydro chuck includes a shank portion provided on one end side in a longitudinal direction and having, on a leading end side thereof, a cylindrical chuck portion for gripping a gripped object and an operational portion provided on the other end side in the longitudinal direction and disposed in continuation from the shank portion. The shank portion is fixable by being inserted to a tool mount included in a machine tool. The chuck portion includes a sleeve gripping the gripped object and a fluid pressure chamber formed on an outer circumference side of the sleeve and filled with fluid, the chuck portion being configured such that in association with a rise of a pressure of the fluid inside the fluid pressure chamber, the sleeve is reduced in its diameter to grip the gripped object. The operational portion includes a communication passage communicated to the fluid pressure chamber and a pressurizing piston disposed in the communication passage and adjusting the pressure of the fluid inside the fluid pressure chamber.
Self-Balancing Tool Holder or Material Removal Machine
Improvements in a self-balancing tool holder or material removal machine that allows for greater accuracy of material removal. The balancer is able to self-adjust, any changes in the assembly are automatically adjusted. The adjustment can account for tool wear, accumulation of debris on the tool and balancing at different speeds of rotation. The tool holder balancer can be a mechanical fastener, shrink fit or bonding to the tool holder or material removal machine. The balancer uses a plurality of balls or any form of movable weight in the ring to provide the balance. The plurality of balls or media can freely move around the inside of the ring to offset any imbalance. The balls roll or spin to unique positions to provide a dynamic balance. The number and size of balls or weighted media is selected based upon the maximum amount of dynamic balancing that is required.
Tool attachment for a handheld machine tool
In a tool attachment having an attachment housing on which a fastening interface is situated for fastening to an handheld machine tool, the fastening interface having an angular position setting unit for setting a specified angular position of the tool attachment on the handheld machine tool, and being equipped with a locking unit which, in a locked state, locks the tool attachment for operation on the handheld machine tool in the specified angular position, and, in the unlocked state, makes possible drawing the tool attachment away from the handheld machine tool, the angular position setting unit is operable in the locked state of the locking unit, to enable a change in the specified angular position.
Tool gripping mechanism
A tool gripping mechanism includes a tool holder and a shaft to which the tool holder is attached. The shaft is fixed to a rotary shaft of a spindle device. A plurality of magnets are disposed in pairs on concentric circles on surfaces of the tool holder and the shaft which face each other. When the tool holder is in a specific phase with respect to the shaft, the magnets of the tool holder and the magnets of the shaft attract each other, and the tool holder is aligned with respect to the shaft in that phase.
Machine tool of high-frequency vibration
A machine tool of high-frequency vibration is provided. A main shaft structure of the machine tool comprises a rotating shaft, the end of which is provided with a tool holder chuck for fixing a tool holder; the upper portion of which is provided with a rotating coil portion; the main shaft structure is correspondingly provided with a stationary coil portion; and the tool holder is provided with a high-frequency vibration module. By non-contact coils, an external electric power/signal can be transmitted into the high-frequency vibration module to avoid a wear phenomenon in a contact-rotating electrode. Because the inductive coil is arranged outside of the tool holder, the manufacturing cost of the tool holder is reduced, and the convenience of changing the tool holder is increased. Moreover, the machining stability and efficiency of the tool holder are improved by a control method of sensing/feedback signals with wireless transmission.
TOOL HOLDER FOR A CUTTING TOOL AND SLEEVE FOR A TOOL HOLDER
A tool holder for a cutting tool having a tool shank includes a receptacle which extends in an axial direction and a sleeve disposed in the receptacle. The sleeve includes a tool receptacle structured to at least partially receive the tool shank and a blocking element that projects radially into the tool receptacle. The axial positioning of the sleeve is adjustable with respect to the receptacle.
Tool system for machining a workpiece
A tool system for machining a workpiece is provided having a cylinder-shaped retaining shank that has a cutting head holder on an end surface facing the workpiece, a drive mount on an end surface facing the drive, a cutting head having at least one cutting edge, a cutting head hub corresponding to the cutting head holder on the retaining shank, a tool coupling with a tool interface, and a coupling hub corresponding to the drive mount. The coupling hub or the cutting head hub have elevated areas, with contact surfaces, distributed in circumferential and longitudinal directions of the coupling hub or the cutting head hub. The contact surfaces make contact on support surfaces on the drive mount or on the cutting head holder on the retaining shank. The drive mount or the cutting head holder is permanently connected to the coupling hub or the cutting head hub by a joining material in intermediate spaces between the elevations.
Axial machining tool and dust blower nut thereof
An axial machining tool includes a cutter holder, a collet, a dust blower nut, and a cutter. The cutter holder has a receiving groove. The collet is extended into the receiving groove and has a containing space. The dust blower nut is sleeved on the collet and has a body, at least one blade, and a positioning element. The body has a threaded hole, a connecting groove, and at least one engaging groove. The threaded hole and the connecting groove are formed in the body and communicate with each other. The at least one engaging groove is formed on the body. The at least one blade is detachably mounted in the at least one engaging groove. The positioning element is mounted to the body and positions the at least one blade on the body. The cutter is extended into the containing space. A dust blower nut is also provided.
CLAMPING SYSTEM
The invention relates relates to a clamping system for clamping an object (1), in particular for clamping a cutting tool in a machine tool, comprising an accommodating bore (4) for accommodating the object (1) to be clamped, a threaded bore, which extends in the wall of the accommodating bore (4) transversely to the longitudinal axis (12) of the accommodating bore (4), and a clamping screw (6), which can be screwed in the threaded bore in order to selectively clamp or release the object (1) in the accommodating bore (4) in accordance with the screwing position of the clamping screw (6). The invention further relates to an intermediate element (9), which is arranged between the clamping screw (6) and the object (1) such that the clamping screw (6) touches the object (1) to be clamped (1) not directly, but rather indirectly by means of the intermediate element (9). According to the invention, the threaded bore is preferably arranged eccentrically in relation to the accommodating bore (4).
