Abstract

A tool module ( 16 ) comprises a module body ( 15 ) comprising at least two contact surfaces ( 22, 27 ). They are separated from one another by means of a groove ( 30 ) and one of them extends into the groove ( 30 ). A fixed and accurate fit of the tool module ( 16 ) on each bar is ensured by means of this groove. Yarn filaments or very fine dirt particles, grout or wear on the accommodations can be accommodated by the groove. In addition, a simple and failure-free assembly is ensured.

Claims (16)

1. A tool module ( 16 ) for fastening to a bar ( 10 ) of a textile machine, the module comprising:

a module body ( 15 ), on which at least one tool ( 14 ) is held or can be fastened and which encompasses at least two contact surfaces ( 22 , 27 ) disposed to contact a bar ( 10 ) of a textile machine when the module body ( 15 ) is mounted to the bar ( 10 ), which are arranged relative to one another at an angle and which are separated from one another by a groove ( 30 );

wherein the groove completely surrounds at least one of the contact surfaces that projects outwardly from the module body.

2. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the at least two contact surfaces ( 22 , 27 ) is a plane surface.

3. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the at least two contact surfaces ( 22 , 27 ) is a curved surface.

4. The tool module according to claim 3 , wherein the curved contact surface ( 27 ) is a cylindrical surface or a truncated cone-shaped surface.

5. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein the module body ( 15 ) is a cast body.

6. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein the module body ( 15 ) is a metal.

7. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein the groove ( 9 ) encompasses a flat base ( 33 ).

8. The tool module according to claim 7 , wherein the base ( 33 ) is arranged parallel to one of the contact surfaces.

9. The tool module according to claim 7 , wherein the base ( 33 ) is arranged parallel to one of the at least two contact surfaces ( 22 ), which one comprises a flat contact surface.

10. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein the groove ( 29 ) encompasses two shoulders ( 34 , 35 ), which are located opposite one another and parallel to one another.

11. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein the groove ( 29 ) encompasses a width, which is maximally as large as its depth.

12. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein the groove ( 29 ) is embodied so as to be free from undercuts, viewed parallel to a fastening opening ( 43 ).

13. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein the module body ( 15 ) is embodied smoothly in one piece.

14. The tool module according to claim 1 , wherein the module body ( 15 ) encompasses a base body, on which at least one of the contact surfaces ( 22 , 27 ) is embodied, and in that an arrangement element ( 39 ), on which another one of the contact surfaces ( 22 , 27 ) is embodied, is inserted into the base body.
