Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tensioning device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a clamping device is also known (DE-A-29 37 168) in which a tool is clamped axially on a radial flange of the spindle.
  • the spindle flange has keyhole-shaped openings in which the clamping bolts of the tool engage like a bayonet.
  • the clamping screws must then be tightened for axial bracing. With a corresponding number of clamping screws, this clamping process is time-consuming and tedious. Radial bracing of the tool on the spindle is not provided.
  • the invention has for its object to design the generic clamping device so that tools can be clamped not only radially but also axially on the clamping device with it, without this requiring difficult handling during the clamping process.
  • the tool is pushed onto the clamping bush in such a way that the form-fitting members of the tool engage in the form-fitting openings of the axial tendon and engage axially behind them.
  • the tool is pulled against the spindle-side system and in this way properly clamped axially.
  • the axially fixed tool is then additionally clamped radially on the spindle by means of the hydraulically expandable clamping bush.
  • the axial clamping of the tool can be carried out simply and quickly simply by a rotary movement.
  • the tools according to the invention can be clamped effortlessly axially and radially on the spindle.
  • the tool sits precisely aligned on the spindle or its clamping bush.
  • the clamping device is used to clamp tools, in particular grinding wheels.
  • the clamping device is provided on a machine and has a housing 1, in which a spindle 2 with roller bearings 3, 4 is rotatably mounted.
  • the spindle 2 protrudes forward from the housing 1 and carries at the free end a clamping bush 5 which is designed as a hydraulic bushing and has one or more chambers 6 which are axially closed.
  • the chamber 6 is delimited radially inwards by the spindle 2 and radially outwards by an elastically deformable wall section 7 of the clamping bush 5.
  • At least one transverse bore 8 which penetrates the spindle 2 opens into the chamber 6 and connects the chamber 6 to a bore 9 which penetrates the spindle 2 centrally and axially.
  • the clamping bush 5 is mounted on the free end of the spindle 2.
  • the bore 9 is closed by a filling valve 10, via which a pressure medium is introduced into the bore 9.
  • the bore 9 is closed by a clamping screw 11 which is screwed into a threaded bore 12 of the spindle 2 which is open at the end.
  • a tensioning piston 13 which under the pressure of the pressure medium in the bore 9 rests with its end face on the clamping screw 11 (Fig. 1).
  • the tensioning piston 13 is guided in a sealed manner in the bore 9, so that the pressure medium cannot reach the outside between the tensioning piston and the wall of the bore 9.
  • the spindle 2 is provided in the area outside the housing 1 with a collar 14 which has an enlarged outer diameter and which carries an external thread 15.
  • a fling ring 16 is screwed onto the collar 14 and has, on its side facing the clamping bush 5, a front-side recess 17 which is coaxial with the spindle 2 and which is provided with an internal thread 18.
  • a ring 19 can be screwed into this recess 17.
  • the centrifugal ring On the side opposite the recess 17, the centrifugal ring is provided with two coaxial annular depressions 20 and 21, in which the housing 1 engages with play with corresponding annular webs 22 and 23. They are also coaxial to the spindle 2.
  • two stops 24 and 25 are provided diametrically opposite one another, which are preferably designed as studs. The stops 24, 25 protrude into the annular recess 17 of the slinger 16 (FIG. 1). If the stops 24, 25 are designed as screws, they can easily be attached to the slinger 16 so that they do not protrude from the recess 17.
  • the stops 24 and 25 of the slinger 16 each protrude into a partially circular, elongated hole-shaped opening 26 and 27 in the ring 19 (Fig. 2).
  • the openings 26, 27 are of equal length and are diametrically opposite one another.
  • the ring 19 is also provided with two diametrically opposed keyhole-shaped openings 28 and 29 (Fig. 2). They serve to receive screws 30, 31, which are provided on a holder 32 for the tool 33 to be clamped.
  • the openings 28, 29 of the ring 19 lie, as shown in FIG. 2, centrally between the openings 26 and 27.
  • the larger opening section of the opening 28 faces the opening 27 and the larger opening section of the opening 29 faces the opening 26.
  • the pressure medium is introduced into the bore 9 via the filling valve 10.
  • Grease is preferably used as the pressure medium, which is introduced by means of a grease gun.
  • a clamping pressure of, for example, approximately 3 x 107Pa to 5 x 107Pa (300 to 500 bar) is generated once.
  • the clamping screw 11 is screwed in so far that it rests with its head 34 on the flat end face 35 of the spindle 2.
  • the tensioning piston 13 is pressed firmly against the tensioning screw 11 under the pressure.
  • the pressure medium passes through the transverse bore (s) 8 into the chamber (s) 6, as a result of which the wall sections 7 of the clamping bush 5 are elastically deformed radially outward.
  • the holder 32 seated on the clamping bush 5 is centered and radially clamped with the tool 33 on the clamping bush. If the tool with the holder is to be removed, only the clamping screw 11 is loosened, as a result of which the clamping piston 13 in the bore 9 is shifted under the clamping pressure. As a result, the pressure medium is relaxed and the deformation of the wall sections 7 of the clamping bush 5 is canceled so that the tool 33 can be easily removed with the cooler 32. If a tool is pushed onto the clamping bush 5 again, then only the clamping screw 11 is screwed back into the threaded bore 13 until its head 34 rests on the flat end face 35 of the spindle 2.
  • a screw 36 which can be reached at the end and which is opened when first filled with pressure medium and thus enables ventilation when filling. Then the screw plug 36 is screwed back into its closed position shown in FIG. 1.
  • the axial fixation and positive locking of the tool 33 takes place by means of the two screws 30 and 31 in the cold 32.
  • the tool 33 is pushed with the cold 32 onto the clamping bush 5 such that the screws 30, 31 through the larger sections of the keyhole-shaped openings 28 , 29 in ring 19.
  • the tool 33 is rotated counter to the direction of work rotation, the shanks of the screws 30, 31 in the narrower sections of the keyhole-shaped openings 28, 29.
  • the screw heads are then on the back 37 of the ring 19.
  • the shanks of the screws 30, 31 come to rest on the edge of the keyhole-shaped openings 28, 29, the ring 19 is taken along when the tool is turned further and is screwed further into the slinger 16 against the working direction of rotation.
  • the ring 19 pulls the tool 32, 33 axially until the holder 32 rests on the end face 38 of the slinger 16. In this way, the tool 32, 33 is axially fixed and secured against the slinger 16. The ring 19 holds the tool 32, 33 in this position. Then the clamping screw 11 is tightened in the manner described and thus the clamping pressure is generated so that the axially fixed tool 32, 33 is now also radially centered and clamped.
  • the ring 19 is screwed into the recess 17 of the slinger 16 so that when the ring 19 is rotated while the tool 32, 33 is being fastened, it is ensured in any case that the tool also comes into contact with the end face 38 of the slinger 16.
  • the stops 24, 25 designed as studs are only screwed into the slinger 16 when the tensioning device is assembled when the ring 19 is in its installed position.
  • the ring 19 is screwed so far into the slinger 16 that its elongated openings 26, 27 lie in the region of the threaded holes for receiving the stops 24, 25.
  • the openings 26, 27 are so long and the stops 24, 25 are arranged within the openings so that the ring 19 can be rotated when the tool 32, 33 is placed in any case so far that the tool on the end face 38 of the slinger 16 comes to the plant.
  • the screws 30, 31 can be adjusted in the holder 32 exactly axially so that the distance of the screw head from the adjacent side surface 39 of the holder 32 corresponds to the thickness of the ring 19 plus a slight excess for insertion.
  • the tool 32, 33 is axially immovable relative to the ring 19 in the installed position.
  • the ring 19 positions the tool 32, 33 axially in the manner described. Since the ring 19 is screwed into the centrifugal ring 16 during rotation, the tool 32, 33 is displaced in the axial direction, so that when the tool is in contact with the end face 38 of the centrifugal ring 16 an application force acting in the axial direction is also generated.
  • the ring 19 prevents the tool 32, 33 from being pushed by the spindle 3. Since the tool 32, 33 is rotated counter to the direction of rotation of the work, if the hydraulic pressure fails, the ring 19 would reverse further into the direction of rotation against the direction of rotation of the work 16 screwed. This prevents the tool 32, 33 from being unintentionally pushed off the spindle 3.
