Clamping device and machining unit comprising such a clamping device

A clamping device for clamping a workpiece or a tool or, more specifically, a tool holding fixture in a machine part of a machine tool includes a tension rod slidably mounted within the machine part; a clamping set movable by the tension rod between clamped and released positions; a tension spring dedicated to the tension rod so as to generate the pull-in force of the clamping set; and a release mechanism, by which the clamping set can be moved against the force of the tension spring into the released position by the tension rod. To make possible effective clamping at optimum force, the tension spring is clamped between first and second rod parts of the tension rod. The second rod part can move relative to the first rod part, and, as the clamping set moves into the released position, is compressed on both ends by the release mechanism by moving the two rod parts in opposite directions.

A machine tool includes: a column; a spindle head supported by the column; a spindle in the spindle head; a draw bar moved upward to clamp a tool to the lower end portion of the spindle and moved downward to release the tool therefrom; a biasing portion biasing the draw bar upward; a cam mechanism including a cam in the column and an arm whose one end slides on a cam surface such that the other end pushes down the draw bar; a measurement portion measuring the position of the draw bar; a storage portion storing a position relationship between the spindle head and the draw bar when the cam mechanism is normal; and an abnormality determination portion determining an abnormality in the cam mechanism based on the position of the draw bar measured with the measurement portion and the relationship stored in the storage portion.

Axle Arrangement for Mounting a Tool or a Workpiece and Method for Operating the Axle Arrangement
20180318938 · 2018-11-08 ·

The invention relates to an axle arrangement (10) for mounting a tool or a workpiece. The axle arrangement (10) comprises a receiving unit (12) that is supported by a swivel bearing assembly (13) in a base body (11) so as to be rotatable about a longitudinal axis L. The receiving unit (12) has a receiving sleeve (18) that is supported so as to be immovable in longitudinal direction R parallel to the longitudinal axis L and has a gripper actuating element (23) that is supported so as to be slidable in the receiving sleeve (18) along the longitudinal axis L. On one end of the gripper actuating element (23) associated with the front end (18a) of the receiving sleeve (18), there is seated a gripper unit (24) for gripping the tool or the workpiece. The gripper unit (24) is pretensioned by a pretension unit (30) in a clamping position I. An actuatable release unit (34) can move the gripper unitcounter the pretension force FV of the pretension unit (30)into a release position II. By means of a support unit (48), an auxiliary bearing (49) that, in particular, is configured as an axial bearing, can be pressed against the receiving sleeve (18) in order to achieve an improved axial force support of the receiving unit (12) on the base body (11) and to reduce the load on the swivel bearing assembly (13) due to axial forces.

Clamping Device and Machining Unit Comprising Such a Clamping Device

A clamping device for clamping a workpiece or a tool or, more specifically, a tool holding fixture in a machine part of a machine tool includes a tension rod slidably mounted within the machine part; a clamping set movable by the tension rod between clamped and released positions; a tension spring dedicated to the tension rod so as to generate the pull-in force of the clamping set; and a release mechanism, by which the clamping set can be moved against the force of the tension spring into the released position by the tension rod. To make possible effective clamping at optimum force, the tension spring is clamped between first and second rod parts of the tension rod. The second rod part can move relative to the first rod part, and, as the clamping set moves into the released position, is compressed on both ends by the release mechanism by moving the two rod parts in opposite directions.
