A spindle apparatus for use at a machine tool, having: an assembly including a workpiece spindle to receive an elongated workpiece and a motor for driving spindle rotation of the workpiece spindle about a spindle axis; a rotary guide-bush assembly being axially arranged with the workpiece spindle with respect to the spindle axis, the rotary guide-bush assembly receiving the elongated workpiece supported at the rotary guide-bush assembly to rotate about the spindle axis enabling movement of the elongated workpiece; wherein the rotary guide-bush assembly includes a portion to clamp the elongated workpiece, received in the rotary guide-bush and in the workpiece spindle, to transfer driving torque applied from the spindle motor during a driven acceleration of the rotation through the clamped elongated workpiece for rotation of the rotary guide-bush synchronized with the driven acceleration of the rotation of the workpiece spindle.

A tool holder includes a main body, a deformable receptacle for clamping a tool, and at least one blocking element which, in order to prevent axial migration of the tool out of the tool holder, is configured to engage in a corresponding counterpart element on the tool and is arranged at the receptacle. In order to allow particularly high concentricity of the tool holder and stable fastening of the clamped-in tool, and at the same time to ensure easy production, the receptacle has two spaced-apart clamping portions, between which the at least one blocking element is arranged.

A surgical grip for receiving a handpiece shaft for conjoint rotation therewith and/or for receiving a medical tool in such a way as to transmit torque, includes a carrier sleeve on which at least one coupling component provided for coupling the handpiece shaft is attached such that the at least one coupling component can be brought to a coupled position and to an uncoupled position in the operating state, wherein the at least one coupling component can be brought into contact with an activation unit which is arranged between the carrier sleeve and to an outer actuation sleeve, wherein a rotation securing unit present inside the actuation sleeve acts on the activation unit in a spring-biased manner in the operating state such that the activation unit is held secure against rotation relative to the carrier sleeve.

Disclosed is a system to engage a plurality of tools. In the system a drive shaft and collet may be assembled to engage and disengage, selectively, a plurality of tools. User selection may allow use of a plurality of tools during a procedure or during a plurality of procedures.

A tool holder for collet chucks, wherein a-a clamping rotor for applying an axial force to a collet chuck is provided. The clamping rotor, including the two axial bearings of the clamping rotor, are accommodated in a tool holder main part, which is connected to a collet chuck receiving body that receives the collet chuck. In order to captively support the clamping rotor in the main part, a bearing seat element is screwed into the main part, said bearing seat element delimiting a receiving chamber for the clamping rotor towards the collet chuck receiving element. Thus, the clamping rotor is enclosed and held in the main part independently of the collet chuck receiving body. This creates new possibilities for the maintenance and adaptation of the tool holder under different conditions, and in particular the force flow emanating from the clamping rotor during a clamping process is kept away from the collet chuck receiving body, thereby improving the precision of the tool holder.

A clamping device for clamping a workpiece to a machine spindle includes at least one clamping bush which extends around a central axis and has at least one clamping surface for the workpiece and at least one clamping body. The clamping bush on a side remote from the clamping surface at least one support surface which extends about the central axis along a helical line. On a side facing, the clamping bush comprises at least one support surface which extends about the central axis along a helical line with a predefined pitch and is inclined at an angle of inclination to a direction axial to the central axis. The clamping body includes a hydraulic chamber in the interior of the clamping body. The clamping device also includes a displacement element, and at least one pressure generator. A clamping force is generatable between the clamping bush and workpiece.

A rotary tool includes a housing, a drive shaft positioned within the housing, and a bit holder. The bit holder is positioned adjacent a distal end of the housing and is driven by rotation of the drive shaft. The rotary tool also includes a wrench assembly for adjusting the bit holder and a light source configured to emit light in a direction toward the bit holder. The wrench assembly is positioned adjacent the bit holder and is movable between a first position and a second position. The wrench assembly is coupled to the housing and disengaged from the bit holder assembly in the first position and is engaged with the bit holder assembly in the second position.

A collet extends from a first to second end. A hoop section proximate the first end and has a continuous cylindrical interior surface that extends to an intermediate location between the first and second end. First and second legs each extend from the intermediate location. The first and second legs are spaced apart from each other. A holding section is located proximate the second end which has by a flange that extends radially inward from an exterior surface of the and terminates at a clamping surface.
