  • Patent number: 4599769
    Abstract: A machine tool (10) with a rotating cutting tool (24) has a spindle assembly (20,48) mounted for rotation in a longitudinally movable headstock (18). The spindle assembly includes a spindle (48), driven by a motor (50) and an integral machining head (20) having a rotatably mounted drive screw (62). The drive screw carries a radially positionable follower (72) to which is connected a tool block (22) to define a radial slide for supporting the cutting tool. A drive shaft (82) extending through the spindle is in driving engagement with the drive screw such that rotation of the drive shaft relative to the spindle produces rotation of the drive screw and consequential radial movement of the follower and tool block. A motor (76) mounted on the spindle for rotation with the spindle is connected to the drive shaft for rotating it either a clockwise or counterclockwise sense to produce radial movement of the follower and tool block.

  • Patent number: 4557645
    Abstract: An adaptor for a tooling attachment employs a hydraulically actuated sleeve clamp which secures an adaptor sleeve to the spindle housing of a machine tool, the attachment being affixed to the sleeve. A coupling assembly permits locking the adaptor sleeve at selected angular positions relative to the spindle housing, indexing of the sleeve being accomplished through the use of a pinion drive and an indexing gear. Indexing of the adaptor sleeve is permitted by a clamp mechanism which engages a circumferentially extending slot of the adaptor sleeve and which causes engagement and disengagement of the coupling assembly.
