Abstract
Abstract A toolholder for recessing operations having at least one recessing tool having a cutting body of hard metal, the recessing tool being arranged in a cylindrical receiving bore in the toolholder and being held by a retaining screw arranged in the toolholder perpendicularly to the receiving bore. A tool support is arranged in the receiving bore and has a semi-cylindrical shank. The flat surface on the semi-cylindrical shank has at least one groove extending parallel to its axis for receiving an exchangeable cutting body slidably mounted in the groove. A clamping jaw for each cutting body is provided in the other remaining half of the receiving bore and, under the action of the remaining screw, is supported at its front, outer end on the top of the cutting body and by its rear end on the supporting surface of the tool support. The clamping jaw has at its front end a shoulder supporting the cutting body in the direction of sliding and is provided with a setscrew extending parallel to the groove. The rear end of the setscrew is supported on the base of the receiving bore. The front end of the setscrew is accessible through a bore opening out in the outer end face of the clamping jaw.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
234 words
In a toolholder for recessing operations, in particular a boring bar, equipped with at least one recessing tool having a cutting body of hard metal, the recessing tool being arranged in a cylindrical receiving bore in the toolholder and being held by a retaining screw arranged in the toolholder perpendicularly to the receiving bore, comprising the improvement wherein the receiving bore is formed as a blind bore, wherein in the blind bore there is arranged a tool support with a substantially semi-cylindrical shank having in its plane supporting surface facing the retaining screw at least one groove extending parallel to its axis for receiving an exchangeable cutting body slidably mounted in the groove, wherein a clamping jaw for each cutting body is provided in the other remaining half of the blind bore and, under the action of the retaining screw, is supported by its front, outer, end on the top of the cutting body and by its rear end on the supporting surface of the tool support, and wherein the clamping jaw has at its front end a shoulder supporting the cutting body in the direction of sliding and is provided with a setscrew extending parallel to the groove, the rear end of the setscrew being supported on the base of the blind bore and its front end being accessible through a bore opening out in the outer end face of the clamping jaw.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

In a toolholder for recessing operations, in particular a boring bar, equipped with at least one recessing tool having a cutting body of hard metal, the recessing tool being arranged in a cylindrical receiving bore in the toolholder and being held by a retaining screw arranged in the toolholder perpendicularly to the receiving bore, comprising the improvement wherein the receiving bore is formed as a blind bore, wherein in the blind bore there is arranged a tool support with a substantially semi-cylindrical shank having in its plane supporting surface facing the retaining screw at least one groove extending parallel to its axis for receiving an exchangeable cutting body slidably mounted in the groove, wherein a clamping jaw for each cutting body is provided in the other remaining half of the blind bore and, under the action of the retaining screw, is supported by its front, outer, end on the top of the cutting body and by its rear end on the supporting surface of the tool support, and wherein the clamping jaw has at its front end a shoulder supporting the cutting body in the direction of sliding and is provided with a setscrew extending parallel to the groove, the rear end of the setscrew being supported on the base of the blind bore and its front end being accessible through a bore opening out in the outer end face of the clamping jaw.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
69 words
The improved toolholder according to claim 1, wherein the facing surface of the clamping jaw supported on the top of the cutting body encloses with the groove an angle opening towards the base of the blind bore and wherein part of the top of the cutting body which co-operates with the facing surface is inclined at the same angle with respect to the base surface of the cutting body.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
The improved toolholder according to claim 2, wherein the cutting body has cutting edges at both ends and the top of the cutting body extends in the form of a V in side view.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
The improved toolholder according to claim 3, wherein the angle between the two parts of the top is about 160°.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
35 words
The improved toolholder according to claim 1, wherein that surface of the clamping jaw which is turned away from the supporting surface of the tool support is adapted to the radius of the blind bore.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
43 words
The improved toolholder according to claim 1, wherein the clamping jaw has on its side remote from the supporting surface a plane pressure surface for engagement by the retaining screw and a projection is provided at the rear end of the pressure surface.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
