A system for machining and positioning an automobile hub and a production line for intelligent cleaning and precision including upper and lower mounting plates connected vertically. At least three U-shaped blocks are fixed on a top surface of the upper plate. An L-shaped support is mounted between every two blocks including a screw-equipped ball head disposed thereon. The support is driven by a first driving apparatus to move along the upper mounting plate. A slidable chuck is disposed in each block, with a push rod assembly connected to the bottom. The assembly is driven by a second driving apparatus to move along the upper mounting plate with the chuck. Three wedges are circumferentially fixed on a top surface of the lower plate and are driven by a third driving apparatus to move along the lower plate. Inclined surfaces of the wedges are mated with bottoms of the push rod assemblies.

A tool body to which a replaceable cutting insert is fixed includes: a holder: an insert mounting seat that is provided on a first surface of the holder; a clamp member that constrains the cutting insert placed on the insert mounting seat; and an operating member that presses a pressure receiving surface of the clamp member. The clamp member has the pressure receiving surface, a spherical head portion that is formed into a spherical crown shape, and a hook portion that protrudes to a side opposite to a side of the spherical head portion when seen from a side of the first surface. The insert mounting seat supports the clamp member to be swingable with the spherical head portion as a fulcrum, and the hook portion contacts a diameter reducing portion that is formed on an inner peripheral surface of an mounting hole for the cutting insert in a state in which the pressure receiving surface is pressed.

Punch assembly that enable selective securement and release of punch tips to a punch body (or holder) of the assemblies, wherein various retain/release systems can be used with the punch body, specifically relative to triggering mechanisms of such systems and their functioning and use with ancillary components relative to securing and releasing the punch tip, without adversely affecting long-term efficiency and effectiveness of the assemblies.

A machine tool clamping device for releasably holding a tool holder having a tapered shank and a knob protruding from the tapered shank, the clamping device having: a spindle, rotatable about an axis, and having a tapered socket at a lower end thereof and an axial passage, the tapered socket being complementary in shape to the shank of a tool holder. Clamping members are pinned to the spindle and extend into the axial passage, the clamping members being pivotal between a clamped position in which the clamping members clamp the tool holder knob, and an unclamped position in which the clamping members release the tool holder knob. A drawbar is slidable within the spindle axial passage between the clamping members, the drawbar having a surface that acts to pivot the clamping members between the clamped and unclamped positions depending on the position of the drawbar within the axial passage. A spring is arranged between the drawbar and the spindle to bias the drawbar to the clamped position.

Provided herein is an electric powered digging apparatus comprising: a powerhead, the power head comprises a motor and a gearbox; a handle frame, the powerhead is mounted onto the handle frame; and a drill bit, the drill bit is driven by the motor to rotate around a longitudinal axis, the electric power digging apparatus further comprises: a first safety mechanism, wherein the first safety mechanism reduces torque output to the drill bit when the powerhead spins around the longitudinal axis for an angle larger than a first threshold, and a second safety mechanism, wherein the second safety mechanism reduces torque output to the drill bit when the powerhead spins around the longitudinal drive axis at an angular speed larger than a second threshold FIG. 1

A lathe capable of shortening a spindle with respect to a spindle axis direction. A spindle provided with a chuck at the front end thereof is rotatably supported on a support by bearings. A chuck operating apparatus includes a tilt claw and a shifter. A built-in motor is disposed between the bearings to rotate the spindle. The claw is provide outside the spindle and between the bearings. The claw has a movable end whose distance from the spindle axis varies between a first posture to bring the chuck into the opened state and a second posture to bring the chuck into the closed state. The shifter is provided outside the claw and movable in the spindle axis direction to be brought in a first position to bring the claw into the first posture and in a second position to bring the claw into the second posture.

A chuck operating apparatus includes a claw, a shifter, and a shifter drive unit. The rotatable claw has a first posture to bring the chuck into the opened state and a second posture to bring the chuck into the closed state. The rotatable shifter is brought in a first position to bring the claw into the first posture and in a second position to bring the claw into the second posture. The shifter drive unit has a shifter lever having an insertion part provided with a shifter bearing capable of being brought into contact with a side surface of an outward groove of the shifter. A roller is provided on one of the claw and the shifter in a contact position with the other to roll in a spindle axis direction and a groove is formed on the other to receive the roller when the chuck is in the opened state.
