Abstract
A tool head for use in machine tools, has a main body which can be rotated around an axis of rotation. The tool head has a slide. The slide can be moved by means of a pull rod axially oriented in the main body. The slide can be fitted with at least one tool or one tool holder. At least one adjustable toothed plate is fixedly arranged on the slide. The toothed plate has a helical gearing functioning as a gear means for engaging with a helical gearing of the pull rod which is complementary thereto. The slide has an adjustment unit for moving the at least one toothed plate and the helical gearing thereof into the complementary helical gearing of the pull rod.
Claims15
A tool head for use in machine tools having a base body which can be rotated about a rotational axis and having a slide which can be displaced via a pull rod, oriented axially in the base body, and can be fitted with at least one tool or a tool holder, it being possible for at least one adjustable toothed plate to be fixed on the slide, which at least one adjustable toothed plate has at least one first toothing system which acts as gear means for the engagement of at least one second toothing system, complementary with respect to it, of the pull rod, and the slide comprising an adjusting device for moving the at least one toothed plate with its at least one first toothing system into the at least one second toothing system, complementary with respect to it, of the pull rod, characterized in that the adjusting device has an adjusting screw which is received in the slide and by means of which a movably arranged adjusting wedge can be displaced, which adjusting wedge acts on a wedge face which is formed on the at least one toothed plate.
A tool head for use in machine tools having a base body which can be rotated about a rotational axis and having a slide which can be displaced via a pull rod, oriented axially in the base body, and can be fitted with at least one tool or a tool holder, it being possible for at least one adjustable toothed plate to be fixed on the slide, which at least one adjustable toothed plate has at least one first toothing system which acts as gear means for the engagement of at least one second toothing system, complementary with respect to it, of the pull rod, and the slide comprising an adjusting device for moving the at least one toothed plate with its at least one first toothing system into the at least one second toothing system, complementary with respect to it, of the pull rod, characterized in that a spring means which loads the at least one toothed plate with force is provided, in order to press the at least one first toothing system of the at least one toothed plate into the at least one second toothing system, complementary with respect to it, of the pull rod.
