VORRICHTUNG ZUM BEFESTIGEN EINES SCHNEIDWERKZEUGS AN EINER SCHNEIDMASCHINE

摘要

A device for locking a tool to a cutting machine. During a locking action a drawbar is rotated to bring a radial lock pin into registry with oppositely directed bayonet slots formed in a tool that has been inserted into a pocket in the end face of a tool holder; a spring acts on the drawbar to move the lock pin into the bayonet slots. The lock pin is carried on a nose element that is threaded onto the drawbar for drawing the lock pin toward the drawbar to achieve an axial lock force between the tool and the tool holder. Tapered frusto-conical surfaces on the tool and holder produce a self-centering tapered sticking lock action. The oppositely directed bayonet slots allow the tool to be forceably dislodged from the sticking taper when the drawbar is rotated in a reverse direction.
