A servomotor-driven U axis tool member rotation device for a boring and facing head (48) is affixed to a machine by a bracket (29), and has a torque coupling (46, 47) slidable on the servomotor shaft. A cover (39) is mounted to a pivot shaft (41) on the bracket, and is rotated by the servomotor to selectively cover and uncover the torque coupling. The cover pivot shaft has a driven gear (53), and the torque coupling has a driving gear (54). When a U-axis head is disengaged from the torque coupling and machine spindle, the gears are held in mesh by a biasing spring (75) applied to the torque coupling, and the cover may be rotated. When a U-axis head engages the torque coupling, the biasing spring is overcome and the gears are forced out of mesh; at this time, the servomotor may rotate the input tool member of the U-axis head to position its tool, while the cover remains stationary in the open position. |
