[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 The present invention provides a driven high-power clamping tool holder, including a tool holder body 1, a pressure cap 2, a high-power chuck 3, a cutting tool 4, a driven shaft 5, a drive wheel 6, a first bearing 7 and a second bearing 8, etc. The components of this embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, one end of the tool holder body 1 is open and recessed into an inner cavity 10. The upper end of the pressure cap 2 is open and fixedly placed at the opening position of the inner cavity 10. A hollow cavity 20 is formed between the tool holder body 1 and the pressure cap 2. The upper and lower ends of the driven shaft 5 are rotatably installed in the hollow cavity 20 through the first bearing 7 and the second bearing 8. An axial channel 21 is opened in the middle of the lower end of the pressure cap 2, which connects to the opening at its upper end. The outer wall of the tail of the heavy-duty chuck 3 is provided with an external thread 31. The middle of the driven shaft 5 is provided with a through hole 51 through its length for the heavy-duty chuck 3 to pass through. The inner wall of the through hole 51 is provided with an internal thread 511. After the tail of the heavy-duty chuck 3 passes through the axial channel 21, its external thread 31 is threadedly connected to the internal thread 511 of the inner wall of the through hole 51 of the driven shaft 5. The cutting tool 4 is inserted at the clamping part 32 of the heavy-duty chuck 3.
[0022] Among them, the tool holder body 1 is a modern digital machine tool output structure. This structure has stronger rigidity and more stable torque transmission. The hollow cavity 20 formed between the tool holder body 1 and the pressure cover 2 allows the driven shaft 5 to rotate freely in it. The friction and wear are reduced by the first bearing 7 and the second bearing 8. At the same time, the pressure cover 2 and the driven shaft 5 are connected to provide a space for the installation of the powerful collet 3. The tight threaded connection can be locked with high torque to better fix the cutting tool 4 and effectively prevent the cutting tool 4 from loosening during the cutting process.
[0023] Specifically, the outer wall of the driven shaft 5 is provided with a worm gear 52. After the driving wheel 6 passes through the side opening 11 on the tool holder body 1, its worm gear 61 meshes with the worm gear 52 of the driven shaft 5. The nut part 62 of the driving wheel 6 is rotatably inserted into the side opening 11 of the tool holder body 1. The driving wheel 6 drives the driven shaft 5 through the worm gear mechanism, which can effectively convert the rotational force into the tension force and the clamping force of the strong chuck 3, thus improving the stability of the clamping.
[0024] In this embodiment, the nut portion 62 of the drive wheel 6 is preferably a hexagonal nut, which can withstand higher torque. The specific implementation can be selected as needed, and this embodiment does not limit it.
[0025] In practice, the operator uses a hex wrench to turn the nut part 62 of the drive wheel 6. Since the worm gear 61 of the drive wheel 6 meshes with the turbine gear 52 of the driven shaft 5, the drive shaft 5 can be driven to rotate synchronously when rotated, thereby pulling the heavy-duty chuck 3 inward. At the same time, the heavy-duty chuck 3 can retract and hold the cutting tool 4, which can achieve a clamping force of more than 500 torque.
[0026] like Figure 3As shown, the center of the chuck 3 is provided with a clamping hole 33 for inserting the cutting tool 4 through its length direction. The clamping part 32 of the chuck 3 is elastic. Several expansion joints 34 connecting the clamping hole 33 are provided around the outer wall of the clamping part 32 of the chuck 3 along its length direction.
[0027] The clamping hole 33 has a straight opening design, which can firmly fix the cutting tool 4 in the heavy-duty chuck 3 and provide precise positioning, reducing the offset and vibration of the cutting tool 4. The expansion joint 34 allows the heavy-duty chuck 3 to have a certain elasticity and expansion capacity in the clamping, reducing stress concentration.
[0028] Preferably, it may also include a limiting screw 9 for adjusting the clamping depth of the tool, the limiting screw 9 being movably connected in the center hole 101 at the top of the inner cavity 10 of the tool holder body 1.
[0029] In this embodiment, the first bearing 7 and the second bearing 8 can be configured as a first roller group and a second roller group, respectively. The first roller group and the second roller group are each composed of a number of rollers. The rollers are configured as spherical balls or cylindrical balls, preferably steel spherical balls.
[0030] The upper outer side wall of the driven shaft 5 can be provided with a first annular protrusion 53, and the inner wall of the inner cavity 10 of the handle body 1 is provided with a first annular limiting part 102. The first roller group is movably disposed between the first annular limiting part 102 and the first annular protrusion 53.
[0031] The bottom outer wall of the driven shaft 5 can be provided with a second annular protrusion 54, and the top inner end face of the pressure cover 2 is recessed with a second annular limiting part 22. The second roller group is movably disposed between the second annular protrusion 54 and the second annular limiting part 22.
[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, it may also include a first sealing ring 12 and a second sealing ring 13. A first annular mounting groove 55 is provided on the top outer wall of the driven shaft 5. The first sealing ring 12 is sleeved on the first annular mounting groove 55. A second annular mounting groove 23 is recessed on the top inner end face of the pressure cover 2. The second sealing ring 13 is embedded in the second annular mounting groove 23 and located on the bottom surface of the driven shaft 5.
[0033] Furthermore, it may also include a third sealing ring 14, which is embedded in the third annular mounting groove 111 on the inner wall of the side opening 11 of the tool holder body 1.
[0034] Specifically, the first sealing ring 12, the second sealing ring 13, and the third sealing ring 14 effectively prevent dust, moisture, and other external substances from entering the hollow inner cavity 20, thereby protecting the driven shaft 5 and the drive wheel 6 and other components inside. They also improve the stability of the cutting tool 4 during use, reduce vibration and impact, and improve machining accuracy.
[0035] In summary, this utility model, by employing a worm gear structure and a threaded connection between a powerful collet and the driven shaft, allows the rotating drive wheel to drive the driven shaft to rotate via the worm gear mechanism, effectively converting power into clamping force. The tight threaded connection enables locking with high torque, and the powerful collet provides greater clamping force for the cutting tool, effectively preventing tool loosening, tool retraction, and tool drop during operation. It is suitable for CNC machining and can replace traditional C-type tool holders.
[0036] The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited to the above embodiments. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
