AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing clamping devices for tool discs in hand-held power tools are prone to self-loosening during operation, leading to potential detachment of the tool disc.

Method used

A clamping device with a screw mounted in a coupling module that is positively locked and rotationally secured to the drive spindle, featuring a disc spring to seal a grease chamber and axially preload a hand knob, and a rolling bearing to enhance clamping force and prevent unintentional loosening.

Benefits of technology

The clamping device effectively prevents tightening or loosening during operation by ensuring a secure, rotationally fixed connection between the coupling module and drive spindle, enhancing handling ease and clamping force without requiring additional tools.
