Tool turret

Abstract

A tool turret, with a base body (1) which is attached or is to be attached to a machine tool and which defines a turret axis (13) around which the tool disk (7) is pivoted on the base body (1) and which disk has a plurality of tool stations (45) which are distributed on its periphery and which, by turning the tool disk (7), can be set into at least one working position at a time, in which a tool drive (31, 35), located within the tool disk (7) with its output-side gear part (35) which can be turned around an axis of rotation which is radial to the turret axis (13), by coupling engages the tool-side coupling part for driving at least one tool which is located on the tool station (45) which is aligned to the working position, is characterized in that the output-side gear part (35) is located in the tool disk (7) to be pivotable around the turret axis (13), and that in the tool disk (7) there is a clutch (47) which can be switched between a first operating position in which the output-side gear part (35) for pivoting motion around the turret axis (13) is connected to the tool disk (7), and a second operating position in which the output-side gear part (35) is decoupled from the tool disk (7).
