专利汇可以提供Resilient retaining means for connecting work tools and work tool holders专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且This invention resides in providing a resilient, ring-like member between a work tool and a work tool holder so as, in many cases, to permit relative motion, axial and/or rotative, between them. The work tool and work tool holder are intended for use primarily in connection with mining, excavating and earth working machines and the like. The work tool may comprise elongated elements having a shank portion with a working tip at one end and a gauge-determining abutment surface at at least the other end. The work tool holders may comprise bodies having a shank receiving perforation and means in association with the bottom of the perforation having an abutment adapted to cooperate with the abutment on the work tool. The ring-like member may be positioned in a groove on the work tool with a portion thereof adapted to abut some part of the work tool holder or it may be located in a groove in the work tool holder with a portion thereof adapted to engage a shallow depression or the like in the work tool. The resiliency and shape of the ring-like member permits the work tool to be forced into the work tool holder whereafter it will often be movable with respect thereto but captively held. The ring-like member may be formed of metal or plastic and may have a variety of shapes, for the most part, however, having a generally cylindrical, at least in part, configuration. The working portion of this resilient, generally cylindrical, ring-like retainer is capable of axial elongation whereby to present a knock-in, pryout relationship between the work tool and work tool holder.,下面是Resilient retaining means for connecting work tools and work tool holders专利的具体信息内容。

16. Retaining means for maintaining the shank of a bit and the like in the shank receiving perforation of a bit mounting means of mining and earth working machines, said retaining means comprising a resilient retainer, for removably connecting a bit and mounting means, comprising a generally cylindrical member made of resilient material and having a ridge-like abutment element thereon, said cylindrical member having a pair of end members, a web joining said end members, said ridge-like abutment element being located on said web, each of said end members defining the major part of an incomplete circle whereby there is a gap in said generally cylindrical member and whereby said generally cylindrical member may be squeezed to reduce the diameter therEof and whereby said web may be compressed to elongate said generally cylindrical member and whereby when said resilient retainer is located around a said bit shank within a said perforation the said ridge-like abutment element sets up a holding interference between said bit and said mounting means to prevent inadvertent removal of said bit from said perforation.
17. The retainer of claim 16 in which said web is one continuous member.
18. The retainer of claim 17 in which said generally cylindrical member is barrel shaped, said ridge-like abutment element being at the largest diameter of said generally cylindrical member.
19. The retainer of claim 17 in which said generally cylindrical member is hour glass shaped, said ridge-like abutment element being at the smallest diameter of said generally cylindrical member.
20. The retainer of claim 16 in which there are a plurality of webs having spaces therebetween, some at least of said webs having a said ridge-like abutment element thereon.
21. The retainer of claim 20 in which said generally cylindrical member is barrel shaped, said ridge-like abutment elements being disposed at the greatest diameter of said generally cylindrical member.
22. The retainer of claim 20 in which said generally cylindrical member is hour glass shaped, said ridge-like abutment elements being disposed at the least diameter of said generally cylindrical member.
23. In combination, a work tool having a gauge-determining abutment means thereon, a work tool holder having a perforation to just nicely receive said work tool, second abutment means cooperating with said gauge-determining abutment means to position said work tool in the said perforation of said work tool holder, and an axially elongatable resilient retainer to hold said work tool in said work tool holder, said retainer comprising a generally cylindrical ring-like member having a pair of circular end members, a web joining said end members, and a ridge-like abutment surface on said web, said end members and said web being made of resilient material, said retainer being located in a groove on one of said work tool and of said work tool holder and said ridge-like abutment surface engaging the other of said work tool and of said work tool holder to prevent said work tool from coming out of said perforation.
