The present disclosure provides an automatic chuck apparatus comprising a mechanical chuck, a mechanical chuck mounting bracket, a hydraulic motor, a lifting mechanism, a chuck key and a lifting cylinder. The mechanical chuck is mounted above the mechanical chuck mounting bracket. The hydraulic motor, the lifting mechanism and the lifting cylinder are mounted below the mechanical chuck mounting bracket. The hydraulic motor is configured to control the rotation of the chuck key, the lifting cylinder is configured to drive the chuck key to ascend or descend through the lifting mechanism, thereby the mechanical chuck is locked or loosened by the chuck key. The present disclosure further provides a grinding wheel cutting apparatus and a cutting method. In the present disclosure, the locking of the chuck is automatically controlled, thereby improving the working efficiency and ensuring sufficient locking force of the chuck.

A tool holder for ultrasonic machining used in a machine which supplies power via a spindle is provided with a connector received in the spindle; a conductive ring disposed on the connector and electrically connected to the spindle so as that power is configured to supply to the tool holder; a tool mounting member including an axial hole for fastening a portion of a tool; and an oscillator for producing ultrasonic vibration disposed in the tool mounting member, the oscillator for producing ultrasonic vibration electrically connected to the conductive ring so that power supplied to the oscillator for producing ultrasonic vibration is configured to produce ultrasonic vibration of high frequency. The produced ultrasonic vibration of high frequency is transmitted to the tool via the axial hole.

A modular tool holder for ultrasonic machining used in a machine which supplies power via a spindle is provided with a connector in the spindle; a conductive ring on the connector and electrically connected to the spindle; a tool mounting member including an axial hole; an oscillator for producing ultrasonic vibration in the tool mounting member and electrically connected to the conductive ring so that power supplied to the oscillator may produce ultrasonic vibration of high frequency; and a chuck releasably secured to an end of the axial hole.

A clamping unit for a chuck of a machine tool spindle contains a threaded shaft for adjusting the clamping jaws of the chuck. The threaded shaft is axially adjustable in the clamping unit by means of a threaded nut connected to a rotor of a servomotor actuator. An electrically actuable, releasable clutch has a first clutch element, which is connected in a rotationally secure and axially displaceable manner to the threaded shaft, and a second clutch element, which cooperates with the first clutch element and is connected in a rotationally secure manner to the rotor. When the clutch is activated, the threaded shaft and the threaded nut are mutually connected in a rotationally secure manner and prevent axial displacement of the threaded shaft.

A chuck for clamping workpieces or tools in a clamping space with a clamping force (F). The chuck includes at least two chuck jaws movable in translation along one clamping plane (E) in the direction of one center Z of the clamping space and a gear train located at least largely within the chuck for transfer of a driving torque of a drive motor, which can be coupled to the gear train by coupling means of the gear train, to the chuck jaws for movement of the chuck jaws. The coupling means able to be coupled to a corresponding coupling connection of the drive motor. The movement from the maximum size of the clamping space to the minimum size of the clamping space is executed via the gear train from the drive motor.
