Abstract
A clamping device for releasably holding a tool holder shank includes a spindle rotatably mounted inside a housing. A drawbar is axially moveable in a bore in the housing between an advanced releasing position and a retracted locking position. A plurality of engagement members are moveable under the effect of the drawbar into locking engagement with the tool holder shank. An actuating member is slidably mounted to the spindle. A motion transferring mechanism is arranged for transferring an axial movement of the actuating member into a movement of the drawbar. Two or more hydraulic actuators are arranged in or mounted on the housing on different sides of the spindle and configured to move the actuating member in relation to the spindle. A connecting element forms a connection in radial direction between the actuating member and piston members of the hydraulic actuators.
