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.

A clamping assembly includes a collet adapter and an expansion sleeve movably disposed in collet adapter and a draw pin movably disposed in the expansion sleeve. The expansion sleeve cooperates with the draw pin to define a containment system configured maintain the expansion sleeve within an axial envelope and a radial envelope within the collet adapter. Axial movement of the draw pin in the expansion sleeve within the axial envelope causes a portion of the expansion sleeve to expand radially outward to a predetermined maximum diameter to releasably clamp the collet in the collet adapter.

In a component for connecting a shaft to a clamping holder that can receive a rotor, the clamping holder is able to be inserted into a cup-shaped housing and is able to be fixed there by fasteners. On the housing base of the housing is a connector for connecting the housing to the shaft in a torque-proof manner. The fasteners are arranged with their base surface on the outer lateral surface of the housing, and can be brought into engagement with the clamping holder by bores present in the housing. The fasteners have at least one recess in the base surface, such that they rest with their base surface on the outer lateral surface only in some regions.

TOOL HOLDER

A tool holder (100) for holding a tool (200) has pressurizing chambers (123a, 123b) provided between a body member inner peripheral surface (111) of a body member (110) and a sleeve outer peripheral surface (122) of a sleeve (120). Grip parts (124a, 124b) are provided between the sleeve outer peripheral surface and a sleeve inner peripheral surface (121) and are elastically deformed radially inward when pressure in the pressurizing chambers is increased. An extended chamber (123d) is defined between the sleeve outer peripheral surface and the body member inner peripheral surface, fluidly communicates with the pressurizing chamber and extends in an axial direction and in a circumferential direction. The extended chamber curtails radially inward elastic deformation of a portion of the body member inner peripheral surface, which corresponds to one of the grip parts, when a pressing force is received on a body member outer peripheral surface (112).
