A cutting tool holding mechanism includes a base, a handle and a locking assembly. The base includes an abutting portion, a receiving groove, at least one limiting groove and at least one limiting hole. The limiting hole is disposed at the base and communicated with the limiting groove. The handle abutted against the base includes a sleeved portion and a plurality of positioning surfaces. The locking assembly includes a packing ring, a locking screw, a locking member and a guiding bolt. The locking member received inside the limiting groove includes a screwed hole and a guiding groove. The guiding groove disposed at one side of the locking member and is aligned with the limiting hole when the locking member is disposed inside the limiting groove. The guiding bolt is disposed in the limiting hole and is abutted against the guiding groove to inhibit the locking member from rotating.

A bit assembly includes a base block and a bit holder having a body portion and a shank. The body portion and the shank being coaxial and including a bore extending from a forward end of the body portion to the distal end of the shank. The shank further includes at least two segments, a first segment and a second segment. The second segment is subject to the first segment and includes a taper towards the top segment. The base block includes a base and a shortened front end. The shortened front end having a forward face and a rear face. The forward face including an indentation and the rear face including a slot extending axially inward from the rear face to a position mediate the forward face.

In such fields as road milling, mining and trenching it is often desirable to engage and degrade tough materials such as asphalt, concrete and rock. To do so, degradation picks comprising hardened tips may be secured to an exterior of a rotatable drum so as to be repeatedly brought into contact with a surface of a material to be degraded. To secure such degradation picks to the rotatable drum, a toroidal body comprising an interior surface rigidly attachable to the rotatable body and an exterior surface comprising a plurality of bore holes disposed there around may receive a plurality of degradation picks secured within the bore holes.

The invention relates to a bit holder for an earth working machine, in particular a road milling machine, that comprises a bit receptacle in the region of a working side of a support member and that indirectly or directly carries an insertion projection on an insertion projection side of the support member, the support member comprising two stripping surfaces [first or second stripping surfaces] that form a stripping surface pair and are at an angle to one another. In order to achieve a stable and long-lived configuration with such a bit holder, provision is made according to the present invention that the support member comprises at least one further stripping surface that is at an angle to the two stripping surfaces of the stripping surface pair.

A pick assembly comprising a holder body, a strike body, a base body attachable to a drive mechanism, and an interference assembly comprising at least one interference member. The holder body comprises a head portion and a shaft depending from the head portion. The strike body comprises a super-hard strike tip. The head portion and the strike body are cooperatively configured such that the strike body can be attached to the head portion, the strike tip being exposed for striking a body to be degraded when in use. The base body comprises a base bore. The base bore, shaft and interference assembly are cooperatively configured such that the shaft can be secured within the base bore, the interference member disposed between the shaft and the bore. Frictional interference between the shaft, interference assembly and base bore is sufficient to prevent rotation of the shaft within the base bore in use.

A sheath for a soil working roller (20) of a soil processing machine, said sheath is rotatable about a roller axis of rotation and comprises a plurality of sheath segments (40), mounted or mountable to surround a roller body (22) of the soil working roller (20) and following one another in the circumferential direction, wherein a plurality of roller tools (48) is arranged on an outer side of the sheath segments (40) positioned to be facing away from the roller body, wherein at least one part of the roller tools (48) comprise an interchangeable holder mounted on a respective sheath segment (48) and a replaceable tool detachably mounted or mountable on the interchangeable holder of the same, wherein a fastening opening is formed in the interchangeable holder for accommodating a fastening shaft of a replaceable tool mounted or to be mounted on the interchangeable holder, wherein a tool through opening (84) is provided in association with the at least one interchangeable holder in the sheath segment (40) supporting the same.

A pick system includes a holder and a pick assembly. The holder includes a first end, a second end, and a bore extending between the first end and the second end and defining a longitudinal axis. The surface of the bore may be tapered so that the diameter of the bore proximate the first end is greater than the diameter of the bore proximate the second end. The pick assembly includes a shaft. The shaft is received within the bore of the holder along the longitudinal axis, and the shaft may be tapered to mate with the bore.

The invention relates to a bit holder for an earth working machine, in particular a road milling machine, having a support member onto which an insertion projection is indirectly or directly attached on an insertion projection side, the support member comprising two first and/or two second stripping surfaces that are at an angle to one another, and the support member having a working side that comprises a bit receptacle. In order to achieve a stable and long-lived configuration for such a bit holder, provision is made according to the present invention that the first and/or second stripping surfaces diverge from the insertion projection side toward the working side.

A mounting block assembly and method for assembling is disclosed. The mounting block assembly may comprise a mounting block and a toolholder. The mounting block may include a flighting portion, a mounting portion and a protrusion. The mounting portion defines a first bore that is configured to receive a toolholder. The toolholder includes a generally cylindrical sidewall that defines an axis and defines a second bore that is configured to receive a stem of a cutting bit. The sidewall includes a pair of radially outward extending prongs that define a first recess between the prongs. The first recess is configured to interlockably receive the protrusion when the toolholder is disposed in the mounting portion, wherein the interlocked configuration of the toolholder and the mounting block inhibit rotational movement of the toolholder about the axis.
