A compensation chuck for centrically clamping workpieces includes a housing, two pairs of mutually diametrally opposite base jaws for receiving corresponding clamping jaws, and a drive unit which is moveable preferably by power clamping having two pairs of drivable entrainment members. Two adjacent entrainment members are respectively coupled together by a first rocker and two further adjacent entrainment members are coupled together by a second rocker. There is also provided a coupling ring which guides a first entrainment member and a diametrally opposite second entrainment member in the peripheral direction tangentially relative to the clamping axis, such that a motion play is provided between the entrainment members and the coupling ring in the radial direction.

The invention relates to an indexing chuck comprising a chuck body having an opening; a pivoting ring disposed in the opening, the pivoting ring having at least three clamping jaws that can be advanced radially, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the chuck body; an advancing device which is disposed in the pivoting ring and by means of which the clamping jaws can be moved synchronously; and two pivot pins, supported in the chuck body and forming a pivot axis, wherein the advancing device comprises a synchronizing ring which is movable relative to the pivoting ring, a driving surface extending at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the chuck body where it contacts a clamping jaw, and a contact surface on the respective clamping jaw which interacts with the driving surface of the synchronizing ring such that the clamping jaws are moved radially.

A chuck for gripping a workpiece includes: a chuck body; a jaw connected to the chuck body for constrained movement relative to the chuck body along a jaw path in jaw-closing and jaw-opening directions; an actuator body connected to the chuck body for constrained movement relative to the chuck body along an actuator path; and a slider body connected to the chuck body for constrained movement relative to the chuck body along a slider body path. The slider body is connected to the jaw for constrained movement relative to the jaw along a slider-body-to-jaw path. The slider body is connected to the actuator body for constrained movement relative to the actuator body along a slider-body-to-actuator-body path.

A lathe includes a main shaft, a moving shaft, a cutter mounted on the moving shaft, and a clamping assembly. The cutter is capable of telescopic translation relative the moving shaft. The clamping assembly includes a cylinder mounted on the cutter, an assembly member mounted on the cylinder, a moving member, and at least two clamping members. The cylinder defines an inner cavity, and a first air intake and a second air intake communicated to the inner cavity. The moving member is movably mounted in the inner cavity and partially received in the assembly member, and capable of telescopic translation relative the assembly member. The clamping members are movably mounted on the assembly member and engaged with the moving member. The clamping members are translatably urged by the moving member in a direction relative the axis defined by the assembly member.

Provided is a method for manufacturing a gripping tool for gripping a workpiece with top jaws (30) attached to a plurality of master jaws (20) attached to a gripping tool body (10). A first positioner (21, 24) that determines the distance of the top jaw from the center axis of the top jaw when the top jaw is attached to the master jaw is formed in a direction perpendicular to a slide direction in a surface of the master jaw. The method includes a step of attaching the plurality of master jaws to the gripping tool body, a step of gripping a shaping plug (70) by sliding the plurality of master jaws toward the center axis, and a step of finishing, in the surface of the master jaw, the first positioner extending in the direction perpendicular to the slide direction.

A chuck (10) includes a jaw guide (64), interleaving jaws (66), and an inclined engagement surface (84). The jaw guide defines a longitudinal axis (24) and includes jaw channels (65) circumferentially distributed about the axis. The jaws are slidably disposed in the jaw channels Each jaw has a clamping surface (88) facing the axis and a driving surface (90) substantially opposite the clamping surface and a protrusion (92) on a first lateral side and a cavity (96) on a second lateral side. The protrusion of each jaw is disposed at least in part in the cavity of an adjacent jaw. The engagement surface is on one of an inner surface of the jaw guide and an engagement sleeve (80), and is substantially centered about the axis and substantially parallel to the driving surface. Displacement of the jaws relative to the engagement surface in a clamping direction displaces the clamping surfaces toward the axis.

An air chuck includes a body and a valve core interface. The body includes output, interface, and input ports. The body defines a first passageway that extends between the output and interface ports. The input port defines a second passageway that is in fluid communication with the first passageway. The valve core interface is slidably coupled with the body and is slidable between extended and retracted positions. The valve core interface includes a shaft and a knob. The shaft includes proximal and distal ends. The distal end is at least partially disposed in the first passageway. The knob is coupled with the proximal end of the shaft. The shaft is rotatably coupled with the body and is selectively rotatable in either tightening or loosening directions via the knob. The distal end of the shaft comprises a grasping feature that is configured to grasp a valve core of a valve stem.

A finger includes a pair of overhanging portions that project out laterally from a main body portion. Outer peripheral surfaces of the overhanging portions are made up from five surfaces including upper surfaces, side surfaces, lower surfaces, first end surfaces, and second end surfaces. Crowning is applied to the intersections between these surfaces.

A device for transmitting a movement between a first member and a second member, namely from a driving member to a driven member, of the type having a cylindrical journal with a circular base mounted so as to rotate in a recess of the driven member or of the driving member. At least one of the ends of this journal is hollowed out by a groove capable of forming, on either side thereof, two shoes that are symmetrical with respect to an axial and diametral plane of the journal and capable of engaging, by a flattened surface, with the driving member or the driven member, the cross-section of each shoe being delimited by an arc of a circle matching the external surface of the journal, ending in a line segment that is part of the flattened surface.
