  • Patent number: 10010944
    Abstract: A first driving force transmission part is disposed between an attachment part turning transmission shaft and a tool attachment part. The first driving force transmission part transmits rotary driving force from a side of the attachment part turning transmission shaft to the side of the first turning driving force transmission shaft, and includes a groove, a tenon shaped protrusion, and protrusions. The groove is formed on a tip of a slide shaft of the attachment part turning transmission shaft. The tenon shaped protrusion is formed in the first turning driving force transmission shaft and detachably engages with the groove. The protrusions once releases an engaging posture by pressing the groove that is biased to the engaging posture in an disengaging state when the tool is in the middle of the movement to a predetermined position.

  • Patent number: 8893362
    Abstract: A turret tool holder, having structure capable of easily avoiding unnecessary free rotation of a turret, is provided. When a linearly movable shaft is moved toward a turret head section by driving a servomotor, an annular movable coupling element arranged in the turret begins to disengage from an annular fixed coupling element fixed to a support. While the movable coupling member is still engaged with the fixed coupling member, clutch teeth of a clutch member are engaged with other clutch teeth. Therefore, even when the annular movable coupling element is disengaged from the annular fixed coupling element, the turret is prevented from freely rotating by the engaged clutch teeth.
