A passive locking chuck for a rotary driver. The chuck has a pair of rings, one fixed and the other rotatable between a first orientation where recesses formed in the rotatable ring are aligned with recesses formed in the fixed ring, and a second orientation where the recesses are offset from one another. When an upper end of a foundation component having a toothed coupler is inserted into the chuck and rotated axially, the movable ring is moved to the second orientation and the foundation component is thereby captured in the chuck. As soon as resistance is encountered from the soil, the ring moves back to the first orientation so that upon reaching the desired embedment depth, the rotary driver may be withdrawn without counter rotation.

A core bit for producing a borehole in a workpiece includes a cutting portion with one or more cutting segments, a drill shaft portion with a tubular drill shaft, and a connecting device which connects the cutting portion and the drill shaft portion releasably or non-releasably together. The tubular drill shaft is configured as a welded spiral tube.

A cutting insert for a rotary drill tool and drill tool assembly in which an insert and a support body are coupled axially via a complementary shaped projection extending radially outward from the insert and received with a recess indented at a radially inward facing surface of the support body.

The invention relates to a tool holder with a tool holding fixture, in particular a clamping chuck such as a contracting chuck, a draw-in collect chuck, a hydraulic expanding chuck and a high-precision chuck, and a shank of a tool, in particular a rotary tool, accommodated in it, wherein the tool holder contains a means for preventing the tool from being pulled out, locking it against axial displacement. This pull-out preventing unit comprises at least one locking element and at least one locking groove, which corresponds to the said locking element, receives it and interacts with it in a positively locking manner. In this case, both the locking element and the locking groove are formed at least partly in the manner of a ball head. Preferably, the tool has the locking grooves. On account of preferably spirally arranged locking grooves along the cylindrical shank of rotary tools, the direction of pitch of which grooves corresponds to the direction of the grooves of the tool, axial locking of the tool is obtained, so that the tool cannot be axially displaced from the tool holder during operation. In addition, force-exerting elements are arranged, with the effect of making the tool lie against the pull-out preventer without play after shrink-fitting.

This invention relates to a saw blade quick release mechanism for sawing tool and a sawing tool using same, the mechanism comprising a saw blade mount, a rotary cover rotatable on the saw blade mount, a resilient member holding the rotary cover in position, and a positioning component having a positioning member on either of the saw blade mount and the rotary cover and a positioning slot on the other one thereof whereby in case of the rotary cover positioned, the positioning member is at the positioning end of the positioning slot, and the saw blade cannot be disassembled then, while in case of the rotary cover disassembled, the positioning member is at a release end thereof, and the saw blade can be disassembled then.

A tool turret, in particular intended for use in a machine tool, is for an automated tool change process. In a work station (7) of the pivotable tool disk (5), a holder (9) intended for receiving a machining tool (15) can be attached to the tool disk (5) in a re-detachable manner by a clamping device (31) assigned to the work station (7). In an adjusting position of the tool disk (5) that differs from the working position (11), the respective clamping device (31) can be activated or deactivated, while leaving the holder (9) on the tool disk (5). In a changing position of the tool disk different from the working (11) and adjusting positions (57), the clamping device (31) unlocks the holder (9) in such a way that the holder can be removed from the tool disk (5) and replaced with another holder (9) to be used.

A device for the controlled stabilization of tool holder shanks on the respective ring nut, the tool holder shanks, motorized or non-motorized, being predisposed for ER or other type fixing. The device comprises a ring nut and a tool holder shank of a truncated conical shape provided externally with a groove in which means connecting the ring nut to the tool holder are arranged inside the ring nut. The connecting means consist of an annular body formed of at least two shaped half-rings that define opposite protrusions projecting outwardly and centrally to form a shaped prominence having an arched-convex outer profile; on each of the shaped prominences a recess is made predisposed to house respective elastic pins, by means of which the shaped half-rings are firmly connected inside the ring nut blind holes.

A clamping chuck having a body (2) with a slidable spindle (7) in a housing (9). The housing is inclined relative to the axis (xx) of the chuck and exiting through the front face (3), the spindle (7) movement driven by a piston (19) along the chuck axis and the spindle equipped with a groove (15) into which slides a drive section (25) of the piston. An end of the spindle (7) has a notch (17) exiting into the groove (15) such that, when positioning the spindle from the front face (3) of the chuck, allows the spindle (7) to move along the drive section (25) and touch the latter and enable its groove (15) to be positioned facing the drive section (25), such that such that after one rotation of the spindle (7) around its axis (uu), the groove (15) engages with the drive section (25).
