  • Patent number: 6655883
    Abstract: The invention relates to a tool holder for use in machine tools, comprising a main body, which can rotate about an axis of rotation, and cutter holders which each hold a cutting plate and can be radially adjusted by means of an axially displaceable control rod and coupling means. In order to further develop said tool holder so that it is possible, within a very short time, to produce a turned groove which satisfies stringent demands regarding surface quality and geometric roundness, it is proposed, according to the invention, that the tool holder has at least two cutter holders which can be radially adjusted between a retracted position and an extended position and whose cutters can be simultaneously brought into engagement with the workpiece in order to produce a turned groove.

  • Patent number: 5611651
    Abstract: A boring tool comprises a rotating tool body, a tool slide transversely displaceable therein, a cutting plate arranged on the tool slide and a micrometer screw for adjusting the tool slide, this micrometer screw being mounted transversely to the axis of rotation of the boring tool so as to be rotatable and axially non-displaceable. The micrometer screw is mounted in the tool body at a distance from the tool slide and drives a drive slide displaceable transversely to the axis of rotation of the tool body. A transfer lever is pivotally mounted in the space between drive and tool slides and engages with one arm on the drive slide and with the other arm on the tool slide such that when the drive slide is displaced the tool slide is entrained in the opposite direction to the drive slide.
