Definitions

  • the present invention relates to toolholders for machine tools of the kind in which a cutting plate is locked to the tool body by means of a bed 'plate and a tiltable plug inserted through a hole in the body.
  • the end of the plug remote from the cutting plate has an inclined face and the plug itself has an orientation element in the form of a spring which is matchable with a housing in the hole in the tool body.
  • a pressure member is inserted through a tapped hole in the bottom of the tool body and has a pointed end arranged to abut against the inclined face of the plug so as to effect the locking action.
  • the present invention relates to a device for locking a cutting plate to the body of a toolholder with the aid of a bed plate connected to the body and of a tiltable plug inserted in a hole in the latter.
  • the invention accordingly consists in the fact that the end of said plug remote from said cutting plate, has a face inclined to the general axis of said plug, said plug having mounted on its periphery an orientation element, and wherein said hole is provided with a corresponding orientation housing for said orientation element, and a pressure means having an end thereof applicable against said inclined face of said plug at a point remote from the longitudinal axis of said plug.
  • FIGURE 1 shows an exploded view in perspective of one embodiment of the invention
  • FIGURE 2 shows a sectional view along line IIII of FIGURE 1, of the assembled device.
  • the body 1 of the toolholder has a steep-angled recess 2, with a triangular base 3, intended to receive a bed plate 4 and a cutting plate 5.
  • a hole 6 is bored in the toolholder 1 substantially in the centre of the base 3.
  • a groove-like housing 7 is formed axially in the wall.
  • the hole 6 has a tapped enlargement 8, which is more clearly visible in FIGURE 2.
  • the cutting plate 5 is bored at 9 and the bed plate 4 is bored at 10. This latter preferably has a diameter greater than the diameter of the hole 9, but it also has, on the side of the face of the bed plate 4 intended to rest on the base 3, a constriction 11.
  • a plug 12 for insertion in holes 6, 10 and 9 passing through the constriction 11, is constituted in the following manner. It has, in its upper part a head 12a whose top is flat and whose sides are rounded. This head is connected to a cylindrical body 12b of diameter smaller than that of the constriction 11. Below the body 12b is a shoulder 120 which is extended in the axial direction "ice to form a part-cylindrical base 12d whose diameter is greater than that of the hole 6 of the toolholder, but smaller than that of the tapped enlargement 8.
  • the cylindrical base 12d is terminated by a face which is inclined with respect to the general axis of the plug. This face is not only inclined but also concave as shown in FIGURE 2, in planes perpendicular to the axis.
  • the shape and inclination given to the face 122 correspond to the profile of the pointed end 13a of a set screw 13 which is screwable into the tapped enlargement 8.
  • the end 13a is in reality the active end of the screw 13 whose function will be explained later.
  • a recess 14 which extends from the head 12a to the base 12d.
  • This recess is arranged to receive a resilient wire spring 15, which as a whole is concave, and'which projects at its centre away from the body 12b.
  • the lower end of the spring 15 is folded over and is a reasonably tight fit at 16 in a radial hole provided therefor.
  • the spring 15 is thus fixed to the plug 12, whilst retaining resilience, in its median part, under the action of a radial stress.
  • the plug 12 is driven into the hole 6, through the tapped enlargement 8, until the shoulder 12c is arrested by the edge of the hole 6.
  • the groove 7 of this latter must be made to correspond to the spring 15 which then acts as an orientation element in the circular direction.
  • the bed plate 4 is placed in position and it is applied against the base 3; the constriction 11 then compresses the spring 15.
  • the cutting plate 5 is positioned and the set screw 13 is screwed in until its active end 13a meets the inclined face 12e of the screw-cutting tap.
  • the contact zone between the face 12e and the set screw 13 is thrown off centre on the side which is opposite, with respect to the axis of the plug 12, to the vertical wall 2a of the recess 2.
  • the screw 13 tilts the plug as is shown in FIGURE 2 by the angular space between the axes drawn before and after tightening.
  • the rounded side of the head 12a is applied against the internal face of the hole 9 of the cutting plate 5. This latter is held on the bed plate 4 and is strongly urged against the vertical wall 2a of the recess 2.
  • the device of the invention gives the followin advantages:
  • the locking is effected by direct support of the surfaces of the plug 12 and the cutting plate, with neither sliding nor friction, both of which cause wear and tear.
  • the tightening is positive and controllable since it follows directly from the screwing of the set screw which may be measured, if desired, with a torque meter.
  • the cutting stress is directed in the same direction as the tightening stress, to which it is added.
  • A”devi'ce for locking a cutting'plate'to' the body of a toolholder with the aid of a bed plate connected to the body and a tiltable plug inserted in a hole in the latter, wherein the end of said plug remote from said cutting plate, has a face inclined to the general axis of said plug, said plug having mounted on its periphery an orientation element, wherein said hole is provided with a corresponding orientation housing for said orientation ele-' ment, and a pressure means having an end thereof applicable against said inclined face of said plug at a point remote from the longitudinal axis of said plug.
  • orientation element consists of an elongated resilient spring, disposed substantially along a generatrix of said plug and partly inserted in a recess therein, said spring also being able to penetrate into said orientation housing of said body[ 3.
  • end of said hole in said body, remote from said cutting plate, is tapped to receive a pointed end of a set screw constituting said pressure means, said pointed end being abuttable against said inclined face of said plug.
