Tooling fixture includes an installation mount, a rail fixed to the installation mount and a pair of movable jaws which can be clamped or loosened relative to each other and are fixed on the rail. A clamping drive structure for clamping the movable jaws is connected to the movable jaws. The clamping drive mechanism includes a screw and a screw nut matched with the screw. The movable jaws are connected with the screw nut respectively. The screw is rotated, and the movable jaws move relatively to clamp or loosen the work piece. By the cooperation of the screw and the nut, the movable jaws slide on the rail to effectively clamp the work piece. In addition, the number of movable jaws can be set on demand so that they are matched with the screw and the screw nut.

The invention relates to a chuck (1) via which workpieces (2) are supported on a machine tool in a separate and centered manner for machining by the machine tool, including a chuck body (3) and at least four radially oriented guide grooves (4) that are incorporated into same, including at least four clamping jaws (5, 6, 7, 8) that are situated in each case in pairs in an x or y plane, and separately inserted into one of the guide grooves (4) in a movably supported manner, including a drive element (9) that is mounted in the chuck body (3), and which synchronously feeds the four clamping jaws (5, 6, 7, 8) in the direction of the workpiece (2) to be clamped or is moved away by same, and including a rocker (11) that is provided in each case between the drive element (9) and two adjacent clamping jaws (5, 7 or 6, 8), the rocker having a center of symmetry (12) into which a bolt (13) that is swivelably mounted on the drive element (9) is inserted, the rocker (11) being swivelable about the bolt as a function of the contact of the clamping jaws (5, 6 or 7, 8) with the workpiece (2). According to the invention, movement compensation is to take place between two adjacent clamping jaws (5, 6, 7, 8), via which the various clamping jaws (5, 6, 7, 8) are quickly exchangeable without uninstalling the chuck body (3). This is achieved by providing a wedge rod (31) and/or a drive ring, which in each case are/is drivingly coupled to the drive element (9) and one of the clamping jaws (5, 6, 7, 8), between the drive element (9) and one of the chuck jaws (5, 6, 7, 8).

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.
