  • Patent number: 4553886
    Abstract: A spindle headstock of a multiple-operation machine tool, whose housing accommodates, in a coaxial and rotatable arrangement, a spindle kinematically coupled to a rotary drive, a tie rod carrying members intended for connection to the shank of a boring head having a swivel carriage, which tie rod is axially adjustable in relation to the spindle, and a bar carrying toothed members for meshing with toothed members mounted on an end of a slide bar whose opposite end serves for radial displacement of the carriage. The bar is kinematically coupled to a drive whereby it is displaced in the axial direction in relation to the spindle. The members of the tie rod, which serve for connection to the shank of the boring head, are mounted on the tie rod so that they can radially reciprocate during location of the tie rod. For radial adjustment of the bar, a bushing is provided on the tie rod, which is axially stationary in relation to the tie rod and kinematically coupled to the spindle and bar.

  • Patent number: 4550500
    Abstract: In a compass saw formed as a hand-held machine tool a flat saw blade is connected with a flat reciprocating rod by a connecting device which comprises a cup-shaped clamping sleeve screwed on a rotary member formed with a through hole extended in the direction of elongation of the reciprocating rod the end of which is inserted into that hole. The shaft of the saw blade passes through a bore formed in the clamping sleeve and partially extends into the hole in the rotary member. Two opposing pins formed on the shaft of the saw blade limit the extension of the saw blade shaft into the hole of the rotary member. The end of the shaft is pressed against a recess formed in the reciprocating member, on the one hand, and the pins of the shaft are engaged in depressions formed in the rotary member, on the other hand, whereby clamping of the shaft of the saw blade with the end of the reciprocating rod in the clamping sleeve is ensured.

  • Patent number: 4413938
    Abstract: The spindle of a machine tool has a drawbar disposed therein for threaded engagement into and out of the toolholder inserted into the spindle bore to releaseably secure the toolholder within the spindle. Splined on the rearward end of the drawbar distal from the spindle is a spur gear which is shiftable into and out of engagement with a cluster gear driven by the spindle drive motor. When the spur gear on the rearward drawbar end is shifted into engagement with the cluster gear driven by the spindle drive motor, the drawbar will be rotatably threaded either into or out of the toolholder shank by the spindle drive motor and thus, the need for a separate motor to rotatably drive the drawbar is eliminated.

  • Patent number: 4407615
    Abstract: A tool-clamping device for a hand tool machine with a rotary drive spindle includes a tool-clamping set having an outer sleeve mounted on an inner sleeve which serves to clamp a tool to be used and a locking plate which is pivotal relatively to a housing of the tool machine to lock the outer sleeve when the latter is adjusted on the spindle to a predetermined position in an axial direction or to release the outer sleeve for enabling an operator to quickly change a tool to be used in the hand tool machine.

  • Patent number: 4390311
    Abstract: A tool support for a hand tool machine includes a housing surrounding a drive spindle having a recess to receive a tool-receiving sleeve. This recess accommodates a compression spring which biases an end portion of the sleeve. The sleeve is also provided with a tool-facing portion receiving a tool to be used and an intermediate shaped portion which is arranged for a possible slidable movement within an adapter rigidly mounted to the drive spindle. A second sleeve is provided in the tool support which is threadably mounted on the tool-facing portion of the tool-receiving sleeve and is arranged so that its axial position may be adjusted. Said end portion of the sleeve has such a length that the length of contact of this end portion with the recess should be relatively larger than the combined length of contact of the shaped portion of the tool-receiving sleeve with the inner surface of the adapter and a possible path of the second sleeve in the axial direction.

  • Patent number: 4382730
    Abstract: A pneumatically powered spindle wrench is disposed and engaged atop the upper terminus of the powered vertical spindle of the vertical milling machine. The powered spindle wrench has a socket shaped and sized to engage the drawbar of the upper spindle terminus on signal. The tool holder is secured in and engaged in the spindle tapered aperture at the lower spindle terminus. On pneumatically powering and rotating the upper drawbar terminus of the spindle, the drawbar is unlocked and the tool holder can be removed from the spindle lower terminus. An electrically powered D.C. motor, and a hydraulically powered motor can also be equivalently substituted for the pneumatic motor drive.

  • Patent number: 4254856
    Abstract: A coupler of winding key with a winding shaft comprises a threaded member formed on one of the key and the shaft and a bottomed aperture formed in the other in which a coiled spring is locked against withdrawal. The threaded member is threadably engaged with the coiled spring to couple the key with the winding shaft. When the winding key is turned in a direction to spread the coiled spring, a rotating drive is transmitted to the winding shaft while the key rotates idly when it is turned in a direction to tighten the coiled spring.
