  • the invention pertains to the general field of chuck mounted internal cutting tools and more particu ⁇ larly to cutting tools that are cooled by a coolant fluid while in operation.
  • chuck mounted internal cutting tools such as twist drills, boring bars and reamers, that are used with a lathe, drilling machine or a milling machine must be continuously cooled during operation to prevent the tool from heating and eventually burning.
  • This cooling is normally accomplished by allowing a stream of coolant fluid to be applied directly to the cutting surface of the tool.
  • the coolant is normally applied under pressure through a coolant delivery line, i.e., copper tubing, that is separated from the cutting tool.
  • the copper tubing nozzle is located near the surface of the tool and is manually adjusted to assure that the coolant is directed at the surface of the cutting tool.
  • the copper tubing and nozzle must be period- ically adjusted to allow the coolant to be directed at the cutting tool. This may require several adjustments before an adequate directed flow is achieved.
  • a heavy chip from the cutting action may strike the copper line with sufficient force to move the line. This movement can redirect the coolant flow away from the cutting tool often causing the tool to burn.
  • the Dahinden patent discloses a method and means for cooling a stationary twist drill by a coolant.

  • the generator comprises an air intake with an air filter and dryer means. The air is thus cleaned, dehydrated and is compressed through an air compressor connected to a nozzle that is aimed at the drill cutting area.
  • the improved cutting tool holder for liquid cooled cutting tools allows a cutting tool i.e., drills, boring bars, and reamers to be constantly and completely flooded with coolant fluid during operation.
  • the tool holder is designed to be used with lathes, drilling machines, or milling machines and is adaptable to tool holders that remain stationary while the work ⁇ piece rotates or those that rotate while the workpiece is stationary.
  • Tool cooling is currently accomplished by directing a stream of coolant fluid onto the cutting surface of the tool.

  • the best mode for carrying out the invention of an improved cutting tool holder for liquid cooled cutting tools is described in terms of two embodiments.
  • the first embodiment is generally used with lathes while the second is used with milling and drilling machines.
  • the basic difference in the two embodiments is that in the first embodiment the collet holder remains stationary while the workpiece rotates while in the second embodiment the collet holder rotates while the workpiece remains stationary.
  • each embodiment requires a different method for applying the coolant fluid into the tool holder.
  • the first embodiment of the improved cutting tool holder for liquid cooled cutting tools 10 is shown in FIGURES 1 through 8 and is comprised of six major elements: a collet holder 12, a collet holder nose piece 14, a standard collet 16, a coolant nozzle 18, a stop screw 20, and a pipe nipple 22.
  • the collet holder 12 as shown in FIGURE 1 is comprised in the first embodiment of a cylindrical housing constructed of 4140 tool steel or the like, and having a partial tapered bore 12a extending there ⁇ through. At the front inside end of the collet holder, is a threaded front bore 12b while at the back is a threaded back bore 12c.
  • the body of the collet holder has a set of longitudinal flats 12d to allow the holder to be mounted on a lathe tool holder mounting block with set screws.
  • the collet holder nose piece 14 as shown in FIGURES 2 and 3 is also made of 4140 tool steel, or the like, and is threaded at its front side with threads sized to allow the nose piece to be inserted into the threaded front bore 12b of the collet holder 12.
  • the nose piece is essentially a standard item that is modified for the purpose of the invention.
  • the modification consists of extending the thickness of the nose piece flange and threading a conventional tool entry hole to form a threaded nozzle bore 14a into which is inserted the coolant nozzle 18 described infra.
  • the nose piece is internally comprised, in sequential order, of a roller or ball bearing 14b, a push ring 14c, a strip ring 14d and a retaining spring washer 14e.
  • the internal elements primarily function, in combination, as a collet 16 holding
  • the collet 16 is a standard element located with ⁇ in the tapered bore 12a of the collet holder and used to clamp or loosen the cutting rool 50 when the collet holder nose pice 14 is respectively rotated.
  • Around the collet circumference is a plurality of alternating straight-through slots 16b and partial slots 16c.
  • the slots terminate at the collet front in a radial pattern as shown in FIGURE 8.
  • the collet front edge is design- ed to rest against the edge of the roller or ball bear ⁇ ing 14b while the push ring 14c pushes the collet 16 back against the tapered bore 12a causing the collet to close and tighten on the cutting tool 50.
  • the strip ring 14d which fits into the circumferential collet groove 16a, causes the collet to more forwardly when the nose piece 14 is loosened. This action loosens the grip on and releases the cutting tool 50.
  • the retain ⁇ ing spring washer 14e sequentially retains the strip ring 14d, the push ring 14c and the bearings 14b.
  • the nozzle is a cylindrical piece having threads 18a that fit into the threaded nozzle bore 14a on the nose piece 14.
  • the nozzle has a centered orifice 18b as shown in FIGURE 5 that has a flat sec- tion 18c at the front of the orifice and a downward slops18d commencing at the end of the flat and extend ⁇ ing to the rear of the nozzle.
  • the fluid develops a laminar flow at the orifice exit causing the coolant to flow around and throughout the longitudinal surface of the cutting tool.
  • the design of the orifice however, is not critical thus, other orifice designs with different ratios of flat and slope surfaces or a plurality of orifice bores directed at the cutting tool will also adequately function.
  • the bore diameter 18b is dependent upon the diameter of the cutting tool. For example, an orifice diameter of 0.3125 in. (7.938 mm) will work on any cut- ing tool up to a diameter of 0.250 in. (6.350 mm) while an orifice diameter of 0.375 in. (9.525 mm) will work on cutting tools from 0.203 in. (5.159 mm) up to 0.3125 in. (7.938 mm).
  • the only critical design re ⁇ quirement of the nozzle is that the orifice diameter must be larger than the diameter of the cutting tool 50, but small enough to maintain a sufficient flow pressure.
  • the front of the coolant nozzle 18 has a split groove 18e to allow the nozzle to be tightened into or loosened from the threaded nozzle bore 14a.
  • the final element described is the stop screw 20.
  • This element is threaded 20b, as shown in FIGURES 6 and 7, to allow it to be inserted into the threaded back bore 12c in the collet holder 12.
  • the stop screw has a coolant bore 20a that is sized and threaded to accept a standard pipe nipple 22.
  • the pipe nipple is attached by means of a standard coolant line 52 to a pressurized coolant fluid source 54. Note that the coolant bore 20a must be offset from center to pre ⁇ vent the back end of the cutting tool from obstructing the flow of the coolant fluid.
  • the second embodiment of the invention 10 is shown entirely in FIGURE 9.
  • the basic functional difference in this embodiment is in the manner in which the coolant fluid enters the cutting tool holder.
  • the second embodiment is com ⁇ prised of seven major elements: a second collet holder 24, a second collet holder nose piece 26, a second collet 28, a second coolant nozzle 30, a hollow draw bar 32, a second stop screw 34 and a rotary fluid coupling 56.
  • the structural differences include the addition of the hollow draw bar 32 and the rotary fluid coupling 56 that is attached to the rear end of the draw bar. Additionally, the second embodiment will function with or without the stop screw 34.
  • the collet holder 24 is comprised of a cylin ⁇ drical housing constructed of 4140 steel or the like and having a partial tapere ⁇ d bore 24a extending there ⁇ through where the taper narrows as it approaches the rear of the collet holder.
  • the front end of the holder is threaded to form the front threads 24b while at the back of the holder is a threaded second stop screw bore 24c followed to the rear by a draw bar bore 24d.
  • the holder 24 is designed to be inserted into a spindle shaft 58 where the shaft 58 rotates about a stationary spindle 60 as shown in FIGURE 9.
  • the second collet holder employs a second stop screw it is equipped with threads that allow the stop screw to be threaded into the stop screw bore 24c.
  • the second collet holder nose piece 26 is also made of 4140 steel or the like, and has a threaded nose piece bore 26a having threads that are sized to allow the nose piece to be threaded onto the front threads 24b of the second collet holder 24.
  • the inside surface of the nose piece is equipped with a collet holding means that is similar to that described in the first embodiment.
  • the front of the nose piece has a threaded nozzle bore 26b into which is inserted the second coolant nozzle 30.
  • the second collet 28 is a standard element that is located within the tapered bore 24a of the second collet holder 24.
  • the second collet is constructed in a similar manner as in the first embodiment and is also used to clamp down on the cutting tool when the second collet holder nose piece 26 is tightened.
  • the collet is held within the second collet holder nose piece 26 by a collet holding means that is standard and well known in the tool holding industry.
  • the second coolant nozzle 30 consists of a cylindrical piece that is sized and threaded to allow the nozzle 30 to be attached to the threaded nozzle bore 26b located on the front end of the second collet holder nose piece 26.
  • the design of the second coolant nozzle 30 is similar to the coolant nozzle 18 described in the first embodiment.
  • the coolant fluid is supplied to the second col ⁇ let holder 24 by means of the hollow draw bar 32 and the rotary fluid coupling 56.

From the stop screw the pressurized coolant flow is directed primarily through the straight-through slots 16b and secondarily through the partial slots 16c in the collet 16. The fluid then flows through the space between the front of the collet 16 and the back of the coolant nozzle 18 through the nozzle orifice 18b and onto the circumferential and longitudinal surface of the cutting tool 50.
