Claim:
1. A hydraulic chuck configured such that a pressurization fluid pressurized by a push member is fed through a pressurization passage to a pressurization chamber to reduce a diameter of an elastic deformable part, the hydraulic chuck comprising: a body having a flange accommodating part opening at a reduced-diameter portion at a tip end of the body and a sleeve accommodating part opening with a smaller diameter than the flange accommodating part in a bottom face of the flange accommodating part; a sleeve having a hole in which a gripped object is inserted, the sleeve being engageable and insertable with/to the sleeve accommodating part from a leading end side of the flange accommodating part, the sleeve forming the pressurization chamber reserving therein an amount of the pressurization fluid between this sleeve and the sleeve accommodating part, the sleeve having a flange engageable with the flange accommodating part; wherein the hydraulic chuck further comprises a coolant feeding passage which extends through the inside of the body, the coolant feeding passage being communicated with a coolant discharging opening provided at the tip end of the body; at least a portion of a circumferential edge of the coolant discharging opening is formed on a more radially inner side than an arc defining a maximum outer diameter of the flange; at least a portion of an outer edge of the flange has a small-diameter portion which is formed smaller in its outer diameter than the remaining portion of the flange; and the coolant discharging opening is open on a radially outer side of the small-diameter portion of the flange and away from the outer edge of the flange.
