Abstract

The invention relates to an adjusting device for axially supporting a shank tool in a shrink-fit chuck tool holder, comprising a leveling section on the side facing the shank tool to level out or at least reduce any changes in position and/or orientation of the shank tool which are due to shrinkage.

Claims (10)

1. An adjusting device for axially supporting a shank tool in a shrink-fit chuck tool holder, the adjusting device comprising:

a compensating section on a side configured to face the shank tool to compensate for or at least reduce changes in the position and/or orientation of the shank tool which are due to shrinkage, the compensating section comprising an O-ring provided at an end face of the adjusting device, the end face comprising a groove, the groove having a first side and a second side, the second side opposing the first side, the O-ring being in the groove and projecting from the groove to beyond the end face, the shank tool supportable indirectly on the adjusting device by the O-ring.

2. The adjusting device according to claim 1 , wherein the adjusting device comprises an adjusting section for the axial positioning in the shrink-fit chuck tool holder.

3. The adjusting device according to claim 1 , wherein the compensating section has a lower hardness and/or greater elasticity than the shrink-fit chuck tool holder, the adjusting section and the shank tool.

4. The adjusting device according to claim 1 , wherein the axial extension of the compensating section is greater than the axial change in the position of the tool due to shrinkage.

5. The adjusting device according to claim 4 , wherein the adjusting section comprises an adjusting screw.

6. The adjusting device according to claim 4 , wherein the compensating section is a separate, elastically or plastically deformable component, by means of which the shank tool can be indirectly supported on the adjusting section.

7. The adjusting device according to claim 6 , wherein the separate component is a disc made of hard rubber or plastic.

8. The adjusting device according to claim 1 , wherein the adjusting device comprises at least one coolant channel for supplying the shank tool with coolant.

9. A shrink-fit chuck tool holder for shank tools, comprising a fastening section for the connection to a tool machine, a thermally expandable shrink-fit section, which comprises an inner recess for the accommodation of a tool shank, and an adjusting device according to claim 1 , which is disposed axially mobile in the inner recess and by means of which the axial position of the shank tool can be adjusted in the shrink-fit section.
