  • Patent number: 8888420
    Abstract: A tool chucking apparatus to hold a machining cutter or tool includes a holding member and a fastening member that are coupled together to form a grip space inside to hold a collet. The collet has a plurality of pawl structures with a plurality of elastic slots formed thereon. When the holding member and the fastening member are coupled, the collet has one end tightly held in the holding member and the other end tightly held in the fastening member. Hence the two ends of the collet contract the elastic slots to tightly grip the cutter or tool. As a result, machining precision improves, safety enhances and the life span of the cutter or tool increases.

  • Patent number: 8821084
    Abstract: A tool holding module comprises a fixture seat and a tool rod. The fixture seat has a first outer surface on an external wall, a first top surface on one end, and a fixture head is located on the same end. The fixture head has a second outer surface on an external wall and a second top surface on one end. The internal wall of the tool rod has first and second inner surfaces respectively corresponding to the first and second outer surfaces, and has first and second butting surfaces respectively corresponding to the first and second top surfaces. The tool rod and fixture seat are connected to enfold the fixture head. The security of the tool holding module is enhanced via close contact of the first outer and inner surfaces, the second outer and inner surfaces, the first top and butting surfaces, the second top and butting surfaces.

  • Patent number: 7628571
    Abstract: A tool chucking apparatus includes a fastening member, a collet, a holding member and an extension member. The fastening member has a first housing space to hold the collet. The collet has pawl structures spaced in an annular manner and formed in a conical structure. The conical structure has a top end directing towards the fastening member. The extension member includes a support portion and an anchor portion coupled together. The support portion has another end tightly coupled with the collet and the fastening member. The anchor portion has another end tightly coupled with the holding member. The support portion is selectable at a desired length specification according to the cutter or tool. The fastening member, collet, holding member and extension member are hollow in the center thereof to form an installation passage after assembly to hold the cutter or tool.

  • Patent number: 7393164
    Abstract: The present invention provides a dynamic balancing ring for a cutter holder for balancing the cutter holder. The dynamic balancing ring includes a circle, plural fixing elements and an adjusting element. The plural fixing elements are used for fixing the circle on the cutter holder, and after the center-of-gravity position of the cutter holder is obtained by dynamic balance corrector, the adjusting element can be installed at a position on the circle corresponding to the center-of-gravity position, and through adjusting the adjusting element, the dynamic balance of the cutter holder can be corrected. For using the dynamic balancing ring for the cutter holder according to the present invention, it is convenient that the dynamic balancing ring can be directly installed on the cutter holder, which is needed to be corrected, without additional processing.
