  • TOOL COOLANT APPLICATION AND DIRECTION ASSEMBLY
    Publication number: 20100270757
    Abstract: A tool holder includes an insert having an annular channel in fluid communication with an inlet. The insert mounts within a body that provides for rigidly mounting the tool to the machine. Coolant flow through the inlet and annular channel exits the insert through passages directing coolant fluid along the axis of the tool. The passages are annularly disposed about a face of the insert for directing coolant fluid along the tool.
    Type: Application

  • Tool coolant application and direction assembly
    Patent number: 7134812
    Abstract: A coolant assembly for supplying coolant fluid to a tool includes an outer ring defining an inlet and an insert pressed within the outer ring including an annular channel. The annular channel is in communication with the inlet defined by the outer ring and includes a plurality of passages disposed to direct fluid along an axis of a tool. At least two of the passages are disposed at different angles relative to the axis of the tool to direct coolant along the entire length of the tool in order to provide a uniform and consistent stream of coolant and uniform and consistent temperature of the tool.
