Abstract
Abstract In a device for clamping a circular saw blade, the saw blade is firmly clamped between two flanged rings and thereby connected to these so as to form an exchangeable tool unit which is pushed onto the free end of a saw shaft for rotation with the saw shaft and slidable displacement. Compression springs or the like are arranged between the tool unit and a stop face at the free end of the saw shaft to act upon one of the flanged rings and move the tool unit a short distance away from the stop face. A rotatingly mounted thrust plate which can be pressed centrically against the other flanged ring causes the tool unit to firmly engage on the stop face of the saw shaft.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
199 words
Device for clamping a circular saw blade at the free end of a rotatingly driven saw shaft which is mounted in a cantilever manner on part of a machine structure and has a stop face at its free end, characterized by the following features: (A) said saw blade (12) is firmly clamped between two flanged rings (9, 11) and thereby connected to these so as to form an exchangeable tool unit (14); (B) said tool unit (14) is mounted for sliding displacement on said free end (5, 8) of said saw shaft (4) and for rotation with said saw shaft (4); (C) energy accumulating devices (17) are arranged between said tool unit (14) and said stop face (6) at the free end of said saw shaft (4) to act upon one (9) of said flanged rings and move said tool unit a short distance away from said stop face, while the connection between said tool unit and said saw shaft enabling these to rotate together is simultaneously maintained; (D) a rotatingly mounted thrust plate (35) which can be pressed centrically against the other flanged ring (11) causes said tool unit (14) to engage firmly on said stop face (6).

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
54 words
Device as defined in claim 1, characterized in that said saw blade (12) is connected to both flanged rings (9, (11) by threaded bolts (13), and the heads (16) of these threaded bolts engage in complementary recesses (7) on said stop face (6) of said saw shaft (4) forming a positive connection with these.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
Device as defined in claim 1, characterized in that a stop flange is provided on said saw shaft (4) as stop face (6).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
21 words
Device as defined in claim 1, characterized in that said energy accumulating devices are in the form of compression springs (17).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
18 words
Device as defined in claim 1, characterized in that pressure medium cylinders are provided as energy accumulating devices.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
27 words
Device as defined in claim 1, characterized in that said thrust plate (35) can be pressed against said flanged ring (11) by a pressure medium cylinder (33).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
22 words
Device as defined in claim 1, characterized in that said thrust plate (35) is mounted for rotation on a pivotable arm (23).
