Tool-securing system to spindle - comprises snap-connector on spindle engaged by pressure on tool

摘要

The system detachably secues a tool(1) to a driving spindle(2), and comprises one or more snap-connector mechanisms(3) on the spindle. These positively secure the tool to the spindle when force is applied to the former. The connector axis(4) can be at right angles to that of the spindle, being operated by a force applied to the tool in a plane passing through the spindle axis. ADVANTAGE - Fast and simple tool-changing, no other tools being required.
