  • Patent number: 10099295
    Abstract: A drill chuck having a chuck body, on which a threaded ring is guided, which is in engagement with rows of teeth assigned to clamping jaws for the purpose of adjusting the clamping jaws having a thread and guided in the chuck body, as well as comprising a clamping sleeve which surrounds the chuck body and may be coupled with the threaded ring in a torque-transmitting manner and which may be coupled with the chuck body by a locking device. The locking device is formed by a locking sleeve, which has a lock toothing and is rotatably fixedly connected to the threaded ring and which is axially movable between a drilling configuration and a clamping configuration relative to the threaded ring and the clamping sleeve; the locking device is also formed by a mating toothing assigned to the chuck body.

  • Patent number: 9937562
    Abstract: A drill chuck has a chuck body having a plurality of angularly spaced and axially extending but angled guide grooves each holding a jaw that is axially displaceable between an axially front closed position and an axially rear open position. Each jaw has an outer edge formed with external teeth, and also has an axially rearwardly directed rear face extending at an acute angle to a plane perpendicular to the axis. A ring rotatable on the body about the axis has an internal screwthread meshing with the teeth, and an adjustment sleeve rotationally coupled to the ring is rotatable to move the jaws between the open and closed positions. A cover disk on the rear end of the body is formed with respective throughgoing chip-discharge holes each having an inner end aligned with a respective one of the grooves and an outwardly open outer end.

  • Publication number: 20150115551
    Abstract: A drill chuck having a chuck body, on which a threaded ring is guided, which is in engagement with rows of teeth assigned to clamping jaws via an outer thread for the purpose of adjusting the clamping jaws guided in the chuck body, as well as having a clamping sleeve which surrounds the chuck body and may be coupled with the threaded ring in a torque-transmitting manner. The chuck body is formed in multiple parts from a coupling part having a spindle receptacle and from a jaw guiding part, in which guide receptacles run, inclined toward the chuck axis, for the purpose of guiding the clamping jaws.
