Abstract: An integrated and collet and chuck device includes a body member configured to be non-movably fixed to a drive spindle of a driving tool. An outer sleeve member is disposed about a portion of the body member and is rotatable relative to the body member. The sleeve member comprises a front end defining a collet receiving chamber for carrying a conventional collet. A nut is configured with the sleeve member so as to be rotatable therewith relative to the body member. A screw member is disposed rotatably concentric within the nut. The screw and nut are threadedly engaged so that rotation of the nut drives the screw member in the longitudinal direction. The screw member has a collet engaging surface which presses the collet within the frusto-conical inner diameter surface of the sleeve thereby causing the collet to collapse and grip upon the shank of a tool carried therein.

Abstract: A quick-change chuck device has a body member having an internal recess defined therein. An inner sleeve member is fitted into this recess and is axially movable relative to the body member. The inner sleeve has an internal bore defined therethrough which is concentric with the recess. An axial spring mechanism biases the inner sleeve member axially away from the body member. An axial movement locking device is configured with the inner sleeve member to allow a tool shank to slide into the internal bore of the inner sleeve when the sleeve is moved axially towards the body member and to axially lock the tool shank within the internal bore when the inner sleeve member is biased by the spring mechanism away from the body member. A rotational movement locking device is configured within the recess of the body member. The rotational movement locking device defines a bore aligned with the internal bore of the inner sleeve member for receiving the tool shank passing through the inner sleeve member.

Abstract: A sealing collet is provided having a plurality of independent gripping jaws longitudinally disposed about a common centerline axis. The gripping jaws have exposed inner and outer faces. A resilient material is disposed between the gripping jaws and holds the jaws in a predetermined longitudinally and angularly spaced relation about the centerline axis of a collet. A continuous outer diameter seal is disposed circumferentially about the conical outer surface of the collet. The outer diameter seal is formed integral with the resilient material. A continuous inner diameter seal is also provided disposed circumferentially within the inner diameter of the collet and also formed integral with the resilient material. At least one coolant fluid channel may be defined in the resilient material in fluid communication with a coolant port defined through the face of the collet for introducing cooling fluid onto the working surfaces of a tool held by the collet.
