20200384545 · 2020-12-10 · ·

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).

Apparatus for driving a bone fixation pin

A bone fixation pin is inserted into a bone with an apparatus comprising a housing having a proximal portion and a distal portion, the distal portion having an inner surface and an opening configured to receive the bone fixation pin; a drive shaft having a proximal end configured to engage a handle and a distal end; and a body having an axis and a peripheral edge. The body comprises a bore along the axis, the bore being configured to slidably engage the distal end of the drive shaft; and a plurality of evenly spaced slots in the peripheral edge of the body. A plurality of chuck arms move radially along the evenly spaced slots in the peripheral edge of the body, each chuck arm having an inner surface and an outer surface, with each chuck arm being biased toward the axis of the body by a first biasing force. The outer surface of each chuck arm slidably engages the inner surface of the housing. The distal end of the drive shaft and the body are within the proximal portion of the housing, with the body being biased toward the distal end of the housing by a second biasing force. Each chuck arm has an engaging surface configured to engage a head of the bone fixation pin, where pressure applied to the engaging surface drives the chuck arms in a radial direction against the first biasing force, and simultaneously drives the body carrying the chuck arms axially against the second biasing force.

METHOD OF MANUFACTURING CLAMPING JAWS, CLAMPING JAW AND DRILL CHUCK
20200361007 · 2020-11-19 · ·

A method of manufacturing clamping jaws for drill chucks, in which a pin is provided made from a blank, on which are formed a row of teeth furnished for engaging in a thread associated with the drill chuck and, axially offset on the side of the pin opposite the row of teeth, a clamping surface extending at an angle to the axis of the pin; in which at least one of the steps of quenching, carburizing, nitriding, and annealing is carried out to improve the material properties of the pin; and in which additional hardening is subsequently carried out in at least one region of the clamping jaws. The invention also relates to a clamping jaw and to a drill chuck having such clamping jaws.
