A tool holder having a main body for coupling the tool holder to the spindle of a machine tool and having a clamping surface connected thereto for clamping a tool, characterized in that the tool holder has at least one portion shaped in one piece by primary shaping, which in its interior has one or more cavities that form an enclave in the portion shaped by primary shaping.

An easily detachable collet has two opposite ends, a conjoint portion, a fastening cap abutting portion, an annular groove, a through hole, and multiple slits. The conjoint portion is arranged at one of the two opposite ends of the collet. The fastening cap abutting portion is annularly formed at the other end of the collet. The fastening cap abutting portion has a convex outline in cross section. The annular groove is formed between the conjoint portion and the fastening cap abutting portion. The through hole is axially defined through the collet. The multiple slits are radially defined in the collet and communicate with the through hole. Each slit extends to one of the two opposite ends of the collet. The fastening cap abutting portion with a convex outline in cross section enables the collet to be smoothly and easily detached from a fastening cap.

An apparatus for holding and releasing a pin in a controlled manner comprises a base, a pin holding element supported at the base, a plurality of rod-shaped release elements made of a shape memory alloy and supported at the base, a holding force application device supported at the base for applying an elastic holding force, and a force transfer element. The force transfer element is subjected to the elastic holding force and, against the elastic holding force, supported at the base via a parallel arrangement of the pin holding element and the release elements. The release elements are arranged with radial play in blind holes in the base, which are arranged around the pin holding element. The pin holding element is deactivatable by heating up the release elements beyond a transition temperature of their shape memory alloy and by a resulting recovery of the release elements to straight memory shapes.

A toolholder matched with the internal jet cooling spindle for cryogenic coolant is mainly composed of a hollow toolholder body, a high-performance thermal insulation structure and a bidirectional sealing structure. They can guide the cryogenic coolant from the spindle to the internal cooling channel of cutting tool and realize the cryogenic thermal insulation and dynamic sealing. The high-performance thermal insulation structure inside the toolholder employs the material with a low thermal conductivity and a low linear expansion coefficient to restrain the low temperature impact of cryogenic coolant on the toolholder and spindle, to ensure the dimensional accuracy and assembly accuracy of the toolholder. The bidirectional sealing structure in the toolholder uses the ultra-low temperature resistant seal rings to prevent the cryogenic coolant from leaking towards the spindle and the cutting tool, to ensure the stability of the coolant transport.

A tool holder (1) includes a clamping member (4) for clamping and holding a tool (5), a holder body (2) having, at a leading end thereof, a receiving portion (25) for receiving the clamping member (4) along an axis (AX) and an operational member (N) for attaching the clamping member (4) to the holder body (2). The clamping member (4) clamps the tool (5) by an operation of the operational member (N). Vibration is applied to a contact portion (T) between the clamping member (4) and the holder body (2) when the clamping member (4) clamps the tool (5).

A collet chuck for clamping a tool shank, comprising a chuck body, a collet and a multi-part clamping nut consisting of a clamping ring and a threaded section rotatably connected to each other via rolling elements, otherwise connected in an interlocking manner, wherein the clamping ring and the collet comprise interlocking coupling elements designed such that the collet can be inserted into the collet housing through the central opening, facing away from the chuck body, of the clamping ring held on the chuck body, while the coupling elements move past each other, and then the coupling elements can be brought into engagement with each other by rotating the clamping ring relative to the collet, so that the clamping ring can transmit the forces applied to it by the threaded section during tightening to the collet via the coupling element and can drive the collet into the chuck body.

A tool holder comprising a base element, a deformable receiver for clamping a tool and at least one locking element configured for preventing an axial extraction of the tool from the tool holder through engaging a corresponding opposite element at the tool, wherein the at least one locking element is integrally configured in one piece with the receiver.

The invention provides a tool holder suitable for cryogenic minimum quantity lubrication, which belongs to the technical field of cooling and lubrication of numerical control machine tools. The device comprises a toolholder body, a peripheral static structure, a multilayer sealing structure, a heat insulation structure, and a bearing support structure. The invention solves the problems of insufficient cooling performance in the micro-lubrication technology and insufficient lubrication in the cryogenic cooling machining technology, and integrates the oxygen insulation protection effect of the cryogenic medium, the cooling effect of the cryogenic medium, and the friction reduction and lubrication effect of the micro-lubrication. It has a good processing effect on difficult-to-cut materials. The invention can be used for machining difficult-to-cut materials with traditional numerical control machine tools, expands the application range of external to internal cooling tool holders, effectively reduces the cutting heat of difficult-to-cut materials in cutting processing, improves tool life, and replaces traditional cutting fluids to achieve green manufacturing.

An angle head holder has a steering assembly and a holder assembly rotatably mounted in the steering assembly. The holder assembly has a cutter spindle, a threaded rod, multiple balls, and a collet. The cutter spindle has a central hole and a first annular groove radially formed in the central hole at a position near a rear end of the cutter spindle. The threaded rod has a second annular groove aligning with the first annular groove to form a ball groove between the threaded rod and the cutter spindle. The balls are arranged in the ball groove. The collet is inserted in the central hole of the cutter spindle from a front end of the cutter spindle and is connected to the threaded rod with threaded connection.

The invention relates to a collet chuck (1) for clamping a preferably cylindrical tool shank with a chuck body (2) of a collet (3) and an union nut (4), which are matched in such a way that the collet (3) can be driven into the chuck body (2) by tightening the union nut (4) such that it secures the tool shank in the collet chuck (1) ready for operation, wherein the collet (3) and the union nut (4) are permanently connected to one another and at the same time connected in a rotatable manner relative to one another.
