Tool turret
A tool turret has a housing ( 1 ), a turret head ( 2 ) rotatable relative to the housing ( 1 ) by a drive. Two toothed rims ( 4, 9 ″) are arranged coaxial to the rotational axis of the turret head ( 2 ). One rim ( 4 ) is connected fixedly to the turret head ( 2 ). The other rim ( 9 ″) is connected fixedly to the housing ( 1 ). A locking part ( 24 ) can be moved axially relative to the housing ( 1 ) and to the turret head ( 2 ), with the toothing system ( 24 ′) oriented towards the two toothed rims ( 4, 9 ″). In the locked position, the locking part is in engagement with the rims as a positively locking connection. A pressure fluid control actuates the movement of the locking part ( 24 ). An additional frictionally locking connection ( 73 ) is established between the housing ( 1 ) and the turret head ( 2 ) by a frictionally locking device ( 67 ).
1. A tool turret, comprising:
a turret housing;
a turret head rotatable about a rotational axis relative to said turret housing by a drive;
first and second toothed rims being coaxial to said rotational axis and being fixedly connected to said turret head and said turret housing, respectively;
a locking part being movable axially relative to said turret housing and said turret head along said rotational axis, having a set of locking teeth oriented toward said first and second toothed rims and being movable between unlocked and locked positions, in the locked position teeth of said toothed rims being engaged with said locking teeth in a form-fitting connection;
a pressure fluid control activating movement of said locking part between the unlocked and locked positions; and
a frictional lock forming a frictional locking connection between said turret head and said turret housing in the locked position in addition to connection of said teeth of said first and second toothed rims with said locking teeth of said locking part, said frictional lock including a chamber between said turret housing and said turret head, said chamber being fillable with a pressure fluid, lying outside of the connection of said teeth of said first and second toothed rims with said locking teeth of said locking part and having a pressure effective surface arranged between said turret housing and said turret head that produces said frictional locking upon fluid pressure being applied to said chamber.
2. A tool turret according to claim 1 wherein
said chamber is Tillable with fluid pressure from said pressure fluid control.
3. A tool turret according to claim 1 wherein
said locking part is a pressure piston capable of having pressure fluid of said pressure fluid control applied to opposite surfaces of said pressure piston.
4. A tool turret according to claim 3 wherein
pressure supply channels separate from one another extend in said turret housing and open respectively on said opposite surfaces of said pressure piston to control movement of said pressure piston.
5. A tool turret according to claim 1 wherein
said turret housing comprises a projecting guiding step overlapped by said turret head at an edge of said guiding step, said chamber extending at said edge.
6. A tool turret according to claim 5 wherein
said chamber is continued by a boundary between said turret head and said turret housing on a side of said turret housing opposite said second toothed rim, said boundary forming an effective surface when fluid pressure is applied to said chamber drawing said turret head in a direction of a step surface of said guiding step, said step surface being adjacent said first toothed rim.
7. A tool turret according to claim 5 wherein
a bearing is mounted on an outside guiding surface of said guiding step.
8. A tool turret according to claim 1 wherein
a tool disk is capable of being fixed with a plurality of tool receptacles for receiving machining tools on free side face of said tool turret.
9. A tool turret, comprising:
a turret housing;
a turret head rotatable about a rotational axis relative to said turret housing by a drive;
first and second toothed rims being coaxial to said rotational axis and being fixedly connected to said turret head and said turret housing, respectively;
a locking part being movable axially relative to said turret housing and said turret head along said rotational axis, having a set of locking teeth oriented toward said first and second toothed rims and being movable between unlocked and locked positions, in the locked position teeth of said toothed rims being engaged with said locking teeth in a form-fitting connection;
a pressure fluid control activating movement of said locking part between the unlocked and locked positions;
a frictional lock forming a frictional locking connection between said turret head and said turret housing in the locked position in addition to connection of said teeth of said first and second toothed rims with said locking teeth of said locking part; and
a projecting guiding step on said turret housing overlapped by said turret head at an edge of said guiding step, said chamber extending at said edge, said chamber being continued by a boundary between said turret head and said turret housing on a side of said turret housing opposite said second toothed rim, said boundary forming an effective surface when fluid pressure is applied to said chamber drawing said turret head in a direction of a step surface of said guiding step, said step surface being adjacent said first toothed rim.
10. A tool turret according to claim 9 wherein
said chamber is Tillable with fluid pressure from said pressure fluid control.
11. A tool turret according to claim 9 wherein
said locking part is a pressure piston capable of having pressure fluid of said pressure fluid control applied to opposite surfaces of said pressure piston.
12. A tool turret according to claim 11 wherein
pressure supply channels separate from one another extend in said turret housing and open respectively on said opposite surfaces of said pressure piston to control movement of said pressure piston.
13. A tool turret according to claim 9 wherein
a bearing is mounted on an outside guiding surface of said guiding step.
14. A tool turret according to claim 9 wherein
a tool disk is capable of being fixed with a plurality of tool receptacles for receiving machining tools on free side face of said tool turret.
