Abstract

Abstract There is a disclosed tool holder and bit construction for use in precision machining operations, wherein the tool holder is provided with means to removably position the same for rotation by a machine spindle, and a cavity of precise rectangular uniformly diminishing cross-section inwardly from one end, to receive a mating correspondingly precisely formed tool bit comprised solely of a carbide composition and integral shank to be positioned in and removable from the cavity when conditions require, means being provided in said holder to facilitate such removal.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
A tool holder and bit construction comprising a rotatable holder body, means to connect said body to rotating mechanism at one end, a tool shank receiving cavity at the other end, said cavity being of flattened rectangular cross-section, diminishing uniformly in area from its widest dimension at the entrance, to the inner end on a total taper of 8 degrees with minimum tolerance therefrom, the tool bit being a preformed carbide composition member having a shank with corresponding cross-section and taper tolerance substantially identical to that of the cavity, shank being frictionally positioned in the cavity, and means to effect removal of said shank from the cavity.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 107 words
A tool holder and bit construction comprising a rotatable holder body, means to connect said body to rotating mechanism at one end, a tool shank receiving cavity at the other end, said cavity being of flattened rectangular cross-section, diminishing uniformly in area from its widest dimension at the entrance, to the inner end on a total taper of 8 degrees with minimum tolerance therefrom, the tool bit being a preformed carbide composition member having a shank with corresponding cross-section and taper tolerance substantially identical to that of the cavity, shank being frictionally positioned in the cavity, and means to effect removal of said shank from the cavity.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 38 words
A tool holder and bit construction as claimed in claim 1, wherein the narrowest side walls of the cavity each tapers inwardly uniformly at an angle of four degrees with respect to the center line of the cavity.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
A tool holder and bit construction as claimed in claim 2, wherein the widest walls of the cavity are parallel and corresponding faces of the tool bit shank conform thereto.
