TOOL RETENTION SYSTEM HAVING CAM-DRIVEN KEYS |
摘要 |
A retention system is provided for use in connecting a replaceable tool to a work implement. The retention system may have a sleeve configured to be received within corresponding bores in the work implement and the replaceable tool. The sleeve may have a radially oriented hole passing through an outer surface thereof. The retention system may also have a pin disposed within the sleeve. The pin may have a cam lobe located at an end adjacent the radially oriented hole of the sleeve and radially offset from a central axis. The retention system may additionally have a key disposed within the radially oriented hole of the sleeve and configured to ride on the cam lobe. The key may be movable during rotation of the pin from a retracted position to an activated position at which the key extends beyond the outer surface of the sleeve. |
