In a zero-point clamping device (1) for centred locking of an object (2) with repeat accuracy, in particular a workpiece, a tool or a pallet, or a carrier part (3) to which the corresponding object (2) is attached, the zero-point clamping device comprising: a housing (4), a receiving opening (5) worked into the housing (4), which has a centring axis (6) with which the axis of symmetry (2 or 3) of the object (2) or the carrier part (3) is coaxially aligned during the clamping process, at least two clamping slides (7, 8 or 9), each of which is mounted axially displaceably in a bore (10) provided in the housing (4) and which open into the receiving opening (5) during the clamped condition and thereby act on the object (2) or the carrier part (3) and secure them, and an actuating element (11) which is rotatably mounted in the housing (4) and by means of which the clamping slides (7, 8, 9) can be moved, one axis of rotation (12) of the actuating element (11) running tangentially and at a distance from the receiving opening (5),
on the one hand, this should enable a reliable, permanent and repeatable fixing of a large number of workpieces, tools, pallets or other objects (2) and, on the other hand, the housing (4) of the clamping device (1) should be extremely compact, i.e. its external dimensions can be kept extremely small in height and diameter.

This is achieved in that two spaced-apart threads (13, 14) are incorporated in the actuating element (11), the respective threads (13, 14) of which have identical pitches and are designed to be inclined in opposite directions with respect to one another, a drive pin (15, 16) is inserted in each thread (13, 14), this drive pin (15, 16) being in a driving operative connection with the respective thread (13 or 14) in such a way that the drive pins (15, 16) can be moved along the axis of rotation (12) of the actuating element (11) by means of the rotation of the actuating element (11), that at least two drive segments (21, 22 or 23) are mounted in a floating arrangement in the housing (4) and extend in an arc around the centring axis (6) of the receiving opening (5), that two of the drive segments (21, 22) are coupled in a driving arrangement to the actuating element (11) via one of the respective drive pins (15, 16), that a respective pivot pin (17, 18) is provided between th

Disclosed is a built-in type electric driving system of a machine tool. The system is capable of directly connecting a motor, which drives a spindle in a lathe which processes a workpiece, to an outer surface of the spindle without using a belt to rotate the spindle, and is capable of selectively transferring the power of the motor to a rotation system including a drawbar and a spindle for driving a chuck using a clutch device.

An object of the present invention is to obtain information corresponding to information, which is readable by sight, but no longer visible. The present invention provides a chuck mechanism comprising: a chuck body including an installation surface and a side surface; and a master jaw provided on the installation surface of the chuck body and configured to move in a radial direction of the chuck body, wherein a first marking is provided on the installation surface of the chuck body, the first marking is product information of the chuck mechanism, the product information has a readable form by sight, and at least one second marking is provided on the installation surface or the side surface of the chuck body, the second marking is information including at least the product information of the first marking, and the information of the second marking has a coded form.

A workpiece clamping device includes a chuck main body, multiple first chuck claws attached to the chuck main body, a second chuck claw attached to the chuck main body, and a driving source configured to move the first chuck claws and the second chuck claw to clamp a workpiece having a rectangular shape, in which the multiple first chuck claws each have a pair of first contact portions, are disposed at positions of different corners, respectively, on a rectangular workpiece, and bring each of the pair of first contact portions into contact with two sides forming the corner to hold the corner, and the second chuck claw has a second contact portion, and is configured to bring the second contact portion into contact with one side of the workpiece to hold the one side of the workpiece.

A chuck jaw stopping mechanism is disclosed for forming a soft jaw for a lathe. An example of the chuck jaw stopping mechanism includes a stopping device. The example chuck jaw stopping mechanism also includes a securement device configured to connect the stopping device on a master jaw of a chuck of the lathe. The example chuck jaw stopping mechanism also includes a lower surface of the stopping device that moves against a portion of an outer circumference of the chuck in a closed position. The lower surface also moves away from the portion of the outer circumference of the chuck in an open position to form a gap between the lower surface of the stopping device and the portion of the outside circumference of the chuck.

A retention chuck for glass pipes for machines producing glass containers is provided. The retention chuck has a central supply channel for the glass pipes, a plurality of adjustable clamping jaws arranged at the lower end of the supply channel and so as to be distributed around a centerline of the channel. The spacing of the jaws from the center line of the supply channel is adjustable by an actuation element. A coupling element couples the jaws to the actuation element. Guides guide the adjustment movement of the clamping jaws perpendicularly, radially inwardly relative to the center line.

A chuck for a machine tool includes a body rotatable about a rotation axis and defining a plurality of slots extending radially in the body, a plurality of jaws received in corresponding ones of the plurality of slots, the jaws being radially movable relative to the body between an inward position and an outward position, and for at least one of the plurality of jaws, a sealing layer disposed in the slot receiving the at least one of the plurality of jaws and sealing an interface between opposed lateral sides of the at least one jaw and a surface of the body defining the slot receiving the at least one of the plurality of jaws. A method of sealing an interface between a surface defining a slot of a chuck is also described.
