6.6 Various locking mechanisms
6.6.1 Spring latch
The locking mechanisms via spring latch are designed in two
different variants. The TOOLFIX MONO and VARIO tool adapters in
the ISO ( SK/ BT/ Cat ), VDI and HSK ( A/ B ) versions use spring
latches individually manufactured for the toolholder mounting,
whereas the TOOLFIX MONO AND VARIO tool adapters in the
Capto version use a standard spring latch. Both types of spring
latches are pressed axially inwards into the taper by spring force
and thus secure the clamped toolholder taper against falling out.
To release the clamped toolholder taper, the respective spring
latch must be pulled outward by hand. Only then can the
toolholder taper be removed.
On the TOOLFIX VARIO or MONO tool adapter of the ISO version,
the spring latch is positioned on the tool adapter via a cylindrical
clamp. The height of the cylindrical clamp is adjustable.
For this, the clamping screw (1) must first be loosened with a
hexagon socket wrench SW6 in order to be able to adjust the
height of the complete cylindrical clamp via the adjusting screw (2)
with a hexagon socket wrench SW4. The height of the cylindrical
clamp must be adjusted so that the spring latch rests on the flank
of the groove or on the edge of the toolholder taper.
