A sealing arrangement (41), which seals the inside (15) of the tool disk (3) in relation to the outer side on the respective tool station, is provided on each drive part (25) in a tool revolver comprising a base body (1) which is applied or is to be applied to the tool machine and which defines a revolver axis (7), about which a tool disk (3) is rotationally mounted on the base body (1). Said tool disk comprises a plurality of tool stations (17) which are distributed on the periphery thereof and which can be adjusted by rotating to tool disk (3) in respectively at least one working position, wherein a tool drive (19), which is located in the inside of the tool disk (3) and which is applied to the base body (1), is coupled to the drive-sided coupling part (23) comprising a tool-sided coupling part for the drive of a tool, which is located on the tool station (17) which is oriented towards the work station. A drive part (25), which forms the tool-sided coupling part, is rotationally mounted in each tool station (17), with which the tool receiving element (53) of the respective tool, which can be operated on the tool station (17), can be applied to the drive connection.
A tool revolver with a base body (1) that is to be mounted or is mounted on a tool machine and that defines a revolver axis (7), around which a tool disk (3) is rotatably mounted on the base body (1), and said tool disk has several tool stations (17) that are distributed on its periphery, and which can be adjusted in each case in at least one working position by the rotation of the tool disk (3), and in which a tool drive (19) that is located inside (15) the tool disk (3) and that is mounted on the base body (1) is coupled to its drive-side coupling part (23) to a tool-side drive part for driving a tool, which is located at the tool station (17) that is oriented towards the working position, characterized in that in each tool station (17), a drive part (25) that forms the tool-side coupling part is rotatably mounted, with which the tool receptacle (53) of the respective tool that can be operated at the tool station (17) can be brought into drive connection, and in that a sealing arrangement (41) that seals the interior (15) of the tool disk (3) against the exterior at the respective tool station (17) is provided on each drive part (25).
