Apparatus for chip removing machining
A device for chip removing machining includes first and second parts coupled together, wherein one of the parts includes a cutting edge. A coupling between the first and second parts includes two interacting surfaces and a clamp for forcing the surfaces together. The surfaces are profiled with male and female members, respectively, that are intercoupled to establish a form locking of the first and second parts against each other. The first and second parts are provided with central holes for receiving the clamp. The male and female members are configured to define only a single position of intercoupling.
1. Apparatus for chip removing machining comprising a first part and a second part coupled together by a coupling, wherein the coupling comprises two interacting surfaces and a clamping member for forcing the surfaces together, the interacting surfaces being profiled with male and female members, respectively that are intercoupled to establish a firm locking of the first and second parts against each other, said coupling defining a longitudinal center line, wherein the first and the second parts are provided with aligned holes for receiving the clamping member, wherein the male and the female members are oriented on the interacting surfaces such that the male and female members intercouple only in a single position, the orientation of the male and female members prevents the male and female members from intercoupling in another position, wherein the first part includes a channel for cooling medium, the channel defines a fluid exit port in an envelope surface of the first part.
2. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the male and female members are spaced from the center line.
3. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the male and female members extend orthogonally relative to the center axis.
4. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein one of the first and second parts comprises a turning tool having only a single active cutting edge, wherein incorrect positioning of the cutting edge is prevented by the male and female members being intercoupled in the single position.
5. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the male and female members are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the center hole.
