Chuck capable of drawing in and pushing out collet
A chuck is composed of a collet sleeve, a sliding member, at least one linkage member, a collet, and a driving member. The collet sleeve includes an axial hole running therethrough and at least one opening in communication with the axial hole. The sliding member is slidably received in the axial hole of the collet sleeve. The linkage member is inserted through the opening of the collet sleeve and connected to the sliding member. The collet is inserted into the axial hole of the collet sleeve and connected to the sliding member. The driving member drives the linkage member and the sliding member to move for drawing in and pushing out the collet with respect to the collet sleeve.
1. A chuck comprising:
collet sleeve having an axial hole running therethrough and at least one opening positioned axially at a midsection of said collet sleeve, said at least one opening in communication with said axial hole;
a sliding member slidably received in said axial hole of said collet sleeve and having a screw segment at an end thereof;
at least one linkage member inserted through said opening of said collet sleeve and connected with said sliding member at an end thereof;
a collet received in said axial hole of said collet sleeve having a screw hole threadedly engaged with said screw segment of said sliding member; and
a driving member fitted onto said collet sleeve for driving said linkage member and said sliding member to move, allowing said collet to reciprocate with respect to said collet sleeve;
wherein said linkage member is a shaft provided with an end secured with said sliding member and the other end having a rack; said driving member is an annular sleeve rotatably fitted onto the midsection of said collet sleeve having a thread at an inner periphery thereof for threadedly engaged with said rack of said linkage member; and
wherein said collet sleeve comprises a first annular groove at an outer periphery thereof; said driving member comprises a second annular groove at an outer periphery thereof for corresponding to said first annular groove of said collet sleeve; said driving member comprises a through hole, a plurality of metal balls inserted into said through hole to be received in said second annular groove of said driving member and said first annular groove of said collet sleeve, and a pin fixedly received in said through hole of said driving member.
2. The chuck as defined in claim 1 , wherein said collet sleeve comprises an annular portion and a seal ring, said annular portion having an annular recess at a bottom side thereof, said seal ring being received in said annular recess of said annular portion; said driving member contacts against said seal ring.
3. A chuck comprising:
a collet sleeve having an axial hole running therethrough and at least one opening positioned axially at a midsection of said collet sleeve, said at least one opening in communication with said axial hole;
a sliding member slidably received in said axial hole of said collet sleeve and having a screw segment at an end thereof;
at least one linkage member inserted through said opening of said collet sleeve and connected with said sliding member at an end thereof;
a collet received in said axial hole of said collet sleeve having a screw hole threadedly engaged with said screw segment of said sliding member;
a driving member fitted onto said collet sleeve for driving said linkage member and said sliding member to move, allowing said collet to reciprocate with respect to said collet sleeve; and
a driven ring fitted onto the midsection of said collet sleeve, wherein said driven ring comprises an outer thread at an outer periphery thereof; said at least one linkage member is a shaft having an end fastened with said sliding member and the other end fastened with said driven ring; said driving member is an annular sleeve rotatably fitted onto said outer periphery of said driven ring and has an inner thread threadedly engaged with said outer thread of said driven ring.
4. The chuck as defined in claim 3 , wherein said collet sleeve comprises a first annular groove at an outer periphery thereof; said driving member comprises a second annular groove at an outer periphery thereof corresponding to said first annular groove of said collet sleeve; said driving member comprises a through hole, a plurality of metal balls inserted into said through hole to be received in said second annular groove of said driving member and said first annular groove of said collet sleeve, and a pin fixedly received in said through hole of said driving member.
5. The chuck as defined in claim 4 , wherein said sliding member comprises at least one screw hole; said driven ring comprises at least one concavity positioned at the outer periphery thereof, said concavity having a slot; said at least one linkage member comprises two threads respectively at two distal ends thereof, one of which is inserted through said slot of said driven ring and said opening of said collet sleeve and is further connected with said at least one screw hole of said sliding member, and the other of which is connected with a screw nut, said screw nut being received in said concavity of said driven ring.
