Abstract: A tool holder (100) for holding a tool (200) has pressurizing chambers (123a, 123b) provided between a body member inner peripheral surface (111) of a body member (110) and a sleeve outer peripheral surface (122) of a sleeve (120). Grip parts (124a, 124b) are provided between the sleeve outer peripheral surface and a sleeve inner peripheral surface (121) and are elastically deformed radially inward when pressure in the pressurizing chambers is increased. An extended chamber (123d) is defined between the sleeve outer peripheral surface and the body member inner peripheral surface, fluidly communicates with the pressurizing chamber and extends in an axial direction and in a circumferential direction. The extended chamber curtails radially inward elastic deformation of a portion of the body member inner peripheral surface, which corresponds to one of the grip parts, when a pressing force is received on a body member outer peripheral surface (112).

Abstract: A tool holder includes a tubular body having a shank on a first axial end portion, a tool gripping portion on a second axial end portion, and an elastic segment interposed between the shank and the tool gripping portion in the axial direction of the body. The elastic segment is more elastically deformable along the axial direction and around a circumferential direction of the tubular body than the shank and the tool gripping portion owing to a plurality of voids that extend through the elastic segment from an outer peripheral side of the tubular body to an inner peripheral side of the tubular body. Each of the voids includes segments that extend around the circumferential direction and along the axial direction of the tubular body.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a tool holder for adapting a tool to be measured in a measuring arrangement. Such tool holder can, for example, include a spindle or an adapter of a tool presetter to be inserted in such spindle. Furthermore, this invention refers to a measuring arrangement for measuring of tools as well as a method for calibration of such measuring arrangement to a zero-point of the tool.

Abstract: In a support device to hold a tool or a workpiece, a tightening cylinder is provided at inside with an insertion hole for a substance to be held and on an outer circumference with a taper surface, a rotary cylinder is rotatably and externally fitted to outside of the tightening cylinder through a number of rollers, the rotary cylinder is rotated thereby the rotary cylinder is moved towards diameter side of the tightening cylinder and the tightening cylinder is contracted so as to tighten the substance to be held. Since a number of strain absorbing holes are provided on the inner circumferential surface of the tightening cylinder and scattered uniformly in the axial direction and in the circumferential direction, the deflection adaptability of the tightening cylinder is high and the tightening cylinder can be contracted by a relatively small force.
