Description

Technical Field:

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of machine tool accessories, and particularly to a new type of tool clamping device. Background Art:

[0002] The tool clamping device is a kind of machine tool accessory product, mainly used to clamp tools for milling, grinding, drilling, etc. It can be installed on lathes, milling machines, drill presses and woodworking planers, and is widely used in fields such as mechanical manufacturing and building decoration. It is simple to use and has the same operation as an ordinary tool clamping system.

[0003] Chinese Utility Model Patent with Application No. 202022797512.9 - A positioning device for installing a tool with an ER collet, including a rotor and an end mill. A tool groove is opened in the middle of one end of the rotor. The opening of the tool groove is fixedly connected to the middle of the end mill through a collet. One end of the end mill placed inside the tool groove is fixedly connected with an adjustable positioning screw. An activity hole is opened at one end of the tool groove far from the opening. One end of the activity hole is fixedly connected with an adjusting locking screw, and one end of the adjusting locking screw is threadedly connected to a threaded hole opened at one end of the adjustable positioning screw.

[0004] This patent uses a collet, that is, a chuck, to fix the end mill. The rotor and the nut are connected by threaded meshing. When the nut is screwed with the rotor, a certain friction is generated between the two inclined surfaces. Over time, the service life of the nut and the collet is reduced. Moreover, when the machine tool is working, cutting fluid and iron chips easily enter the tool holder through the gaps of the chuck, causing wear to the internal structure during disassembly, resulting in shortened equipment life and reduced accuracy, thereby affecting the processing quality of products. Utility Model Content:

[0005] To solve the above - mentioned technical problems, the present utility model provides a new type of tool clamping device. The technical problem to be solved is that when the nut is screwed with the rotor, a certain friction is generated between the two inclined surfaces, which reduces the service life of the nut and the collet over time. The technical solution adopted by the present utility model to solve the above - mentioned technical problems is:

[0006] A new type of tool clamping device, including:
