Abstract
The invention relates to a holding device for tools, especially drills, such that this holding device is formed by a shell-shaped upper section of the housing and by a base plate which covers the upper section of the housing and which can be fixed thereon, tubular receiving holes, fine measurement channels, and the coarse measurement channel, as well as recesses for the contact bodies of the gauge being integrally formed on the upper section of the housing.
Claims20
An article holder, for tools which have cylindrical or polygonal shafts of different dimensions, said article holder comprising:
- a housing having an upper section and a base member,
- at least one pair of rows of article receiving bores of different cross-sectional area in said housing upper section for accommodating respective articles, said article receiving bores extending from said upper section towards said base member;
- at least one pair of first channels in said upper section, said at least one pair of first channels associated with and extending generally parallel to said at least one pair of rows of receiving bores;
- gauge means including a plurality of gauging elements respectively associated with the bores of said at least one pair of rows, said gauging elements being disposed along said at least one pair of first channels in proximity to the respective bores of the said at least one pair of rows, each of said gauging elements representing a cross-sectional area which at least approximates the cross-sectional area of the respective bore;
- at least one second channel in said upper section, said at least one second channel extending transversely with respect to said at least one pair of first channels, and opening to said at least one pair of first channels, said second channel including gauging means adjacent at least one of said pair of rows of article receiving bores, for defining a cross-sectional area which at least approximates the cross-sectional area of the largest article receiving bore in said at least one row;
- and
- at least one receiving tube having a threaded bore aligned with at least one of the article receiving bores of said at least one pair of rows as an extension thereof.

- gauge means including a plurality of gauging elements respectively associated with the article receiving bores of said at least one pair of rows, each of said gauging elements representing a cross-sectional area which at least approximates the cross-sectional area of the respective bore, each of said gauging elements being disposed in a pair of gauging element slots, said pairs of slots being disposed along at least one of said at least one pair of first channels, each slot of said pair of slots being disposed on an opposite side of said at least one of said at least one pair of first channels, said slots being located in proximity to the respective bores of the said at least one pair of rows;
- at least one second channel in said upper section, said at least one second channel extending transversely with respect to said at least one pair of first channels, and opening to said at least one pair of first channels, said second channel including gauging means adjacent at least one of said pair of rows of article receiving bores, for defining a cross-sectional area which at least approximates the cross-sectional area of the largest article receiving bore in said at least one row;
- and
- at least one receiving tube having a threaded bore aligned with at least one of the article receiving bores of said at least one pair of rows as an extension thereof.
