Coolant supply structure for turret tool head
View Patent ↗To provide a coolant supply structure for a turret tool rest in which the central part of the intermediate shaft can be utilized effectively as a space and there is no need to allow this shaft to be hollow when a shaft such as a driving shaft is inserted. In a coolant supply structure for a turret tool rest to supply a coolant to a tool mounting part of a turret 12 , which is provided in a turret tool rest 1 having a turret 12 with a tool T being mounted thereon, a hollow rotating shaft 15 for rotating the turret 12 and a hollow intermediate shaft 19 arranged within the rotating shaft 15 , wherein the coolant supply structure has a cylindrical member 23 inserted into the intermediate shaft 19 , and a space served as a passage 24 of the coolant is formed between the cylindrical member 23 and the intermediate shaft 19.
1. A coolant supply structure for a turret tool rest to supply a coolant to a tool mounting part of a turret, which is provided in a turret tool rest having a turret with a tool being mounted thereon, a hollow rotating shaft for rotating the turret and a hollow intermediate shaft arranged within the rotating shaft, wherein the coolant supply structure has a cylindrical member inserted into the intermediate shaft, and a space served as a passage of the coolant is formed between the cylindrical member and the intermediate shaft.
2. The coolant supply structure for a turret tool rest according to claim 1 , wherein a driving shaft of a rotating tool to be mounted on the turret is inserted into the inside of the cylindrical member.
3. The coolant supply structure for a turret tool rest according to claim 1 , wherein a guide channel to guide a coolant to the tool mounting part is formed in the turret and an intercommunicating path to send the coolant from the passage to the guide channel is formed in the intermediate shaft.
4. The coolant supply structure for a turret tool rest according to claim 2 , wherein a transmission shaft that transmits a driving force to the rotational tool is rotationally provided in the intermediate shaft, and the transmission shaft is arranged on one end of the driving shaft positioned in the turret.
