Fine drill head with slack-free radial displacement
The invention relates to a tool head, especially a fine drill head, comprising a machine shank and a tool shank having a joint center axis, wherein the tool shank has a rigid core and a head with a tool, supported by a parallel spring arrangement and is able to be elastically displaced in relation thereto, said head having several limbs which emanate therefrom and form the parallel spring arrangement, whereby at least one of said limbs is fixed to the core or machine shank. The inventive tool head also comprises a device for radial displacement of the head in relation to the core, comprising a positioning device which has a conical part and is guided inside the core. The conical part bears against a contact part of the parallel spring arrangement under pressure when in use. The core is configured with the parallel spring arrangement in a single piece.
1. A tool head for precision boring, comprising:
a machine shank;
a tool shank connected to the machine shank and having a common longitudinal axis therewith, said tool shank including a core, a parallel spring arrangement resiliently deflectable relative to said core, and a head connected to said core by said parallel spring arrangement, wherein said parallel spring arrangement includes a plurality of legs originating from said head, at least one of said plural legs being connected to one of said core and said machine shank, said core being formed as one piece with said parallel spring arrangement; and
a device for radial adjustment of said head relative to said core comprising a setting device having a conical portion which bears under a prestress generated by said parallel spring arrangement on a contact portion of said parallel spring arrangement, wherein said contact portion comprises an arm of said parallel spring arrangement with a presettable screw arranged in said arm, said arm extending toward said machine shank, said setting device being threadably inserted into said core transverse to said longitudinal axis of said core.
2. The tool head of claim 1 , wherein said presettable screw comprises an end face forming a contact pairing with said conical part of said setting device.
3. The tool head of claim 1 , wherein said setting device comprises a head having an outward facing visible portion including a marking to indicate its rotary position relative to said core.
4. A tool head for precision boring, comprising:
a machine shank;
a tool shank connected to the machine shank and having a common longitudinal axis therewith, said tool shank including a core, a parallel spring arrangement resiliently deflectable relative to said core, and a head connected to said core by said parallel spring arrangement, wherein said parallel spring arrangement includes a plurality of legs originating from said head, at least one of said plural legs being connected to one of said core and said machine shank, said core being formed as one piece with said parallel spring arrangement, and wherein said head comprises an external thread for threadably receiving a union nut for holding a cutter holder; and
a device for radial adjustment of said head relative to said core comprising a setting device having a conical portion which bears under a prestress generated by said parallel spring arrangement on a contact portion of said parallel spring arrangement.
5. The tool head of claim 4 , wherein said parallel spring arrangement is formed as one piece with said head.
6. The tool head of claim 4 , wherein a position of said conical portion of said setting device bearing against said contact portion is adjustable for effecting radial adjustment of said head relative to said core.
7. The tool head of claim 4 , further comprising a cooling duct in said core connected to a further cooling duct in said head.
8. The tool head of claim 4 , further comprising a tool holder receivable in a groove in said head and pressure screws for at least two-axis fixing of said tool holder in said groove.
9. The tool head of claim 4 , further comprising a seal for preventing coolant from exiting a cooling duct in said head.
10. A tool head for precision boring, comprising:
a machine shank;
a tool shank connected to the machine shank and having a common longitudinal axis therewith, said tool shank including a core, a parallel spring arrangement resiliently deflectable relative to said core, and a head connected to said core by said parallel spring arrangement, wherein said parallel spring arrangement includes a plurality of legs originating from said head, at least one of said plural legs being connected to one of said core and said machine shank; and
a device for radial adjustment of said head relative to said core comprising a setting device having a conical portion which bears under a prestress generated by said parallel spring arrangement on a contact portion of said parallel spring arrangement, said contact portion comprising an arm of said parallel spring arrangement with a presettable screw arranged in said arm, said arm extending toward said machine shank, said setting device being threadably inserted into said core transverse to said longitudinal axis of said core.
11. The tool head of claim 10 , wherein said presettable screw comprises an end face forming a contact pairing with said conical part of said setting device.
12. The tool head of claim 10 , wherein said setting device comprises a head having an outward facing visible portion including a marking to indicate its rotary position relative to said core.
13. The tool head of claim 10 , further comprising a cooling duct in said core connected to a further cooling duct in said head.
14. The tool head of claim 10 , further comprising a tool holder receivable in a groove in said head and pressure screws for at least two-axis fixing of said tool holder in said groove.
15. The tool head of claim 10 , wherein said head comprises an external thread for threadably receiving a union nut for holding a cutter holder.
16. The tool head of claim 15 , further comprising a seal for preventing coolant from exiting a cooling duct in said head.
