Method and apparatus for retaining a tool in a tool holder
Tool holder has a first section adapted to be connected to a machining center and a tool holding section comprising a bore with a surface defining an inner diameter of the bore. Dispersed around the surface of the bore and at least partially embedded in the surface of the bore is a joining compound having a Young's modulus greater than a Young's modulus of the surface of the bore.
Tool holder with built-in cavities
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.
Tool holding fixture
The invention relates to a tool holding fixture (1) for rotationally driven tools (2), said tool holding fixture comprising a rotationally symmetrical holding body (3) which has a front clamping portion (4) having a holding opening (5) for a tool shaft (6) of the tool (2), and a rear holding portion (7) to be held in a work spindle of a machine tool. To achieve a reduced mass, a lower mass moment of inertia and at the same time high stiffness, a sleeve (11) consisting of a fiber-reinforced plastic is arranged at least in the front clamping portion (4).
Tool head having a shrink-fit chuck
A tool head having a shrink-fit chuck (10) that has an axial receiving hole (22), and having a tool (12) that is insertable by way of its cylindrical tool shank (24) into the receiving hole (22), which is open at the front end of the shrink-fit chuck (10), and is fixable therein by thermal shrinking of the shrink-fit chuck (10). The shrink-fit chuck (10) has, in its front end portion, an annular recess (30) that radially widens the receiving hole (22) and is open at the end side, and a function ring (14) is positioned on the tool shank (24), wherein, in the shrink-fitted state, the tool shank (24) is frictionally fixed in the receiving hole (22) and the function ring (14) sits at least partially in the annular recess (30).
TOOL CLAMPING SYSTEM
Various embodiments relate to a tool-clamping system having two metallic shaft portions, wherein the first shaft portion has a locking pin at the end and the second shaft portion has a locking sleeve at the end, wherein, in order to establish a releasable drive connection, the first shaft portion can be introduced coaxially, by way of its locking pin, into the locking sleeve of the second shaft portion and the two shaft portions can be pivoted in relation to one another, in a locking pivoting movement, about a common geometrical longitudinal axis into a locking pivot position, wherein, over the course of the locking pivoting movement, at least one latching formation arranged on the circumference of the locking pin, snap-fits or snap-fit over at least one corresponding mating latching formation of the locking sleeve, the locking pin and/or locking sleeve being elastically deformed in the process.
Tool holding device
The invention relates to a tool holding device comprising a tool holding body for securing, in a fixed manner, a rotary tool comprising a shaft, provided with a clamping section and a receiving opening for the shall of the tool, a coolant feeding device for pressurized fluid, at least one coolant guiding device for guiding the coolant into a clamped tool shaft. The coolant guiding device is designed as at least one flat groove on an inner side of the receiving opening, joining to the front side on a free end of the tool holding body and directly adjacent to the tool shaft in the surroundings of the tool holding device or a coolant storing chamber and or collecting chamber is provided in the region of the free end of the tool holding body, to which the at least one coolant guiding device joins. The coolant storing chamber and or collecting chamber is connected by means of an annular gap to the surroundings of the tool holder device. The coolant storing chamber and/or collecting chamber and the annular gap are defined at least partially by the work shaft.
Pre-stressing damping system
A tool holder having a tool receptacle for chucking a tool shaft by frictional engagement, in which the tool receptacle comprises a plurality of annular clamping surfaces spaced apart from one another, which are intended for retaining the tool shaft by nonpositive engagement and are embodied on the inner circumference of a tube part, and the tube part has a recess in the material for varying its clamping action; the recess in the material is embodied by a plurality of annular channels extending in the circumferential direction, which are each separated from the tool receptacle by a resilient wall portion, which on its side facing away from the channel embodies the respective clamping surface.
Reamer
A reamer includes a shank, a washer, a ring and a blade. The shank is a polygonal rod and includes an annular groove made in a periphery and a bore made in an end. The washer includes a slot. The ring includes a circular opening. The blade includes an insert inserted in the bore through the slot and the circular opening. The circular opening is made of a diameter larger than a width of the blade to allow the blade to rotate relative to the ring.
Shrink-fit chuck with tool cooling
A shrink-fit chuck having a receiving body, a receiving opening for a tool shank, arranged in the receiving body, an accumulation and collection chamber arranged in the front region of the receiving opening and at least one coolant supply channel leading to the accumulation and collection chamber. The accumulation and collection chamber is delimited to the front by a ring bar arranged at the front end of the receiving opening. The internal diameter of the ring bar is adjusted to the internal diameter of the receiving opening in such a manner that as small an annular gap as possible exists between the ring bar and the tool shank. A plurality of outlet openings are provided in the ring bar for discharging to the outside a coolant routed via the coolant supply channel into the accumulation and collection chamber.
TOOL HOLDING DEVICE
The invention relates to a tool holding device comprising a tool holding body for securing, in a fixed manner, a rotary tool comprising a shaft, provided with a clamping section and a receiving opening for the shall of the tool, a coolant feeding device for pressurized fluid, at least one coolant guiding device for guiding the coolant into a clamped tool shaft. The coolant guiding device is designed as at least one flat groove on an inner side of the receiving opening, joining to the front side on a free end of the tool holding body and directly adjacent to the tool shaft in the surroundings of the tool holding device or a coolant storing chamber and or collecting chamber is provided in the region of the free end of the tool holding body, to which the at least one coolant guiding device joins. The coolant storing chamber and or collecting chamber is connected by means of an annular gap to the surroundings of the tool holder device. The coolant storing chamber and/or collecting chamber and the annular gap are defined at least partially by the work shaft.
