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 sleeve is arranged around a peripheral wall of the spindle and axially moveable in relation to it. A motion transferring mechanism is arranged for transferring an axial movement of the actuating sleeve into a movement of the drawbar. A hydraulic cylinder arrangement is arranged for moving the actuating sleeve. The hydraulic cylinder arrangement includes a cylinder casing fixed to spindle and an annular piston head, which is fixed to or fixedly connected to the actuating sleeve and slidably received in an annular space inside the cylinder casing.
