[0002] Generally speaking, a chuck is mounted on a spindle to fix a workpiece on a machine tool. The prior art for mounting a chuck is as follows:

[0003] First, the jaws are connected to one side of the chuck to clamp and release the workpiece, and a plurality of through holes are formed from one side of the chuck to the other side. In addition, threaded holes corresponding to the through holes are processed at the end of the spindle or mandrel, the through holes are aligned with the threaded holes, and then bolts are tightened on each through hole and the threaded hole to fix the spindle.

[0004] However, as mentioned above, when the chuck is assembled, disassembled, and reconnected to the spindle, the work of tightening and loosening the bolts to each through hole and threaded hole is very cumbersome, which not only consumes a lot of working time, but also reduces the processing volume. When the chuck must be fixed on the vertical spindle or the chuck is a heavy object, there is a problem that the chuck is dropped due to the operator's mistake, which will cause a safety accident. And because the chuck is heavy, at least two people are required for each replacement, resulting in an increase in labor costs, inconvenient operation, and affecting production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a machine tool chuck fast automatic clamping device, which enables the two ends of the elastic sleeve to be respectively engaged with the clamping groove and the internal groove by descending the transmission rod, and fixes the tensioning claws with the connecting disk, thereby fixing the chuck on the main shaft, and realizing the loading and unloading of the chuck and the main shaft by lifting and lowering the transmission rod, which can shorten the time required for replacing the chuck, improve the convenience of workers, and thus improve productivity.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A quick automatic clamping device for a machine tool chuck comprises a chuck and a spindle, an end tooth coupling is provided on the back side of the chuck, a concave-shaped tensioning claw is provided on the side of the end tooth coupling away from the chuck, a connecting disk is provided at the bottom of the spindle, a transmission hole penetrating the spindle and the connecting disk is provided in the spindle, a transfer rod is inserted and slidably provided in the transmission hole, a driving mechanism for driving the transfer rod to move is provided at the top of the spindle, an elastic sleeve that can be plugged into the transfer rod is provided in the tensioning claw, retaining rings are provided on the outer walls at both ends of the elastic sleeve, a clamping groove is provided on the inner hole wall of the connecting disk, and the retaining rings at both ends of the elastic sleeve can be clamped with the clamping groove and the inner groove of the tensioning claw respectively.

[0008] Furthermore, the driving mechanism is a hydraulic cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, one end of the transmission rod that is plugged into the elastic sleeve is tapered.

[0010] Furthermore, the elastic sleeve is an inverted cone structure, including an elastic ring at the bottom, a plurality of elastic sheets arranged in a circumferential array on the elastic ring, a clamping ring is arranged on the outside of the elastic ring, and the clamping strips on the outside of the top of each elastic sheet can form a clamping ring.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0012] This patent uses the connection between the transfer rod and the elastic sleeve to respectively connect the clamping strips at both ends with the clamping slot and the internal grooves of the tensioning claws, thereby achieving a firm assembly of the tensioning claws and the connecting disk, so that the chuck can be quickly and easily installed on the main shaft. When the chuck is separated, the chuck can be automatically removed by simply removing the transfer rod from the elastic sleeve, making the replacement and fixation of the chuck more convenient and labor-saving, which not only improves work productivity, but also ensures safe work and ensures high-quality work.
