Abstract: The holder body of a tool holder includes one or more first fluid passages and one or more second fluid passages, wherein the first and second fluid passages are communicated to each other inside the holder body and open to the outer surface of the holder body. A cooling fluid is supplied from a fluid passage formed in a fluid guide of the cooling apparatus to either the first fluid passage or the second fluid passage, flows through a communicating portion of the first and second fluid passages into the other of the first and second fluid passages, and runs out into the other fluid passage of the fluid guide.

Abstract: A tool holder includes a holder body having a first section to be attached to a machine and a second section coaxially exteding from the first section, a ring in which part of the holder body is received, and an assembling device for removably assembling the ring to the holder body. The holder body further has a contacting portion facing the machine side and with which at least part of the ring is brought into contact.
Abstract: A tool holder includes a holder body having a first section to be attached to a machine and a second section having a substantially constant diameter and coaxial with the first section, a ring extending around the second section, and an assembling device for removably assembling the ring to the holder body. The assembling device is releasably engaged with an inner face of the ring and an outer face of the second section to removably assemble the ring to the holder body.
Abstract: A tool holder has a bore adapted to receive therein a tool having locking flat surfaces on the shank thereof, and a peripheral wall defining the bore; tangential holes running across the peripheral wall and having an aperture open to the bore; and locking cotters each having an inclined surface and disposed in each tangential hole movably in the axial direction thereof. Displacement of each locking cotter towards the mid portion of the tangential hole causes the inclined surface to press against the flat surface of the shank due to the wedge effect, thereby locking the shank to the peripheral wall. Increasing torque, which acts on the shank, moves the locking cotter in the axial direction to a further extent, thus providing an increased wedge effect, whereby a greatly increased shank retaining force is obtained.
