Fixation arrangement as well as an interchangeable part and a lock key

An interchangeable part, in form of a machining tool or a workpiece, arranged to be attached to a retaining device by means of a fixation arrangement, the fixation arrangement including a generally circular shaft attached to or integrated with one of the interchangeable part or the retaining device, and a generally circular mounting hole formed in the other respective interchangeable part or retaining device, a rotary preventing means for fixation of the interchangeable part and the retaining device in a tangential direction and preventing rotation of the interchangeable part and the retaining device in relation to each other, an actuator for tightening the interchangeable part and the retaining device towards each other along a direction of a center axis of the shaft, a conical sleeve having a wall thickness that tapers along a direction of a center axis of the sleeve, such that an outer envelope surface and/or an inner bore of the sleeve is conically shaped in the direction of its center axis, and which is formed with at least one slit, which extends along an entire length from one end to another of the sleeve, and/or at least one slit that extends from one end of the sleeve and terminates before reaching the opposite end, and a conical portion formed on an inner circumference of the mounting hole and/or on the outer circumference of the shaft, in which the conical sleeve fits and into which the conical sleeve is forced during tightening of the actuator, the interchangeable part comprising a circular mounting hole, which is at least partly conical shaped such that the mounting hole has its largest cross-sectional dimension at an end surface thereof and is tapered along at least a part of the distance towards its other end surface.

A lock key arranged to be positioned in a key way formed by a first key groove in one of an interchangeable part or a retaining device, and a second key groove in the other of interchangeable part or retaining device, the lock key having a lengthwise direction oriented in a longitudinal direction of the key way, a widthwise direction oriented in a direction from one side to the other and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of each key groove, and a heightwise direction oriented in a direction from one key groove towards the other and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the key way, the lock key comprising:

• two separate key parts, a base part and a displaceable part, wherein the base part includes a first portion having a large width along a part of the height of the base part, a second portion having a small and varying width along the other part of the height of the base part, the base part is being formed with a recess extending in the lengthwise direction and being defined by a sliding surface extending in the heightwise direction and in the lengthwise direction with a small and acute angle in relation to the lengthwise direction, such that the recess has a tapered width in the lengthwise direction, and wherein the base part also is formed with a threaded hole in the length wise direction from an end surface of the base part where the recess has its largest width, and wherein the displaceable part includes a shank portion and a head portion, the shank portion extending in the lengthwise direction and being formed with a sliding surface extending in the heightwise and lengthwise directions with a small and acute angle in relation to the lengthwise direction such that it has a tapered width in the lengthwise direction, the head portion being formed in an end of the shank portion having the largest width and including a through hole in the lengthwise direction and coinciding with the threaded hole in the base part when the shank portion is positioned in the recess, such that the base part and the displaceable part are interconnectable and adjustable in relation to each other by means of a screw, a shank of which being insertable through the hole in the head portion and into the threaded hole in the base part, wherein the hole in the head portion has a larger cross-sectional dimension than the cross-sectional dimension of the shank of the screw.
