Abstract:
A clamping device includes a first clamping segment which has a first mounting flange and a tubular member extending axially away therefrom. A first bore extends through the first mounting flange and the tubular member. The first mounting flange is configured for attachment to a rotatable spindle of a machine tool. The clamping device includes a draw bar assembly which has an axially extending elongate shaft. The elongate shaft extends through the first bore of the first clamping segment. A biasing unit is mounted on or in the tubular member. A locking member is removably secured to the elongate shaft such that the biasing unit is compressed between the locking member and a portion of the first clamping segment. The biasing member remains compressed when the first clamping segment is separated from the spindle of the machine tool.

Claim (Index 30):
A clamping device for holding a collet, the clamping device comprising:\n a first clamping segment having a first mounting flange and a tubular member extending axially away from the first mounting flange, a first bore extending through the first mounting flange and the tubular member, the first mounting flange being configured for attachment to a rotatable spindle of a machine tool and for receiving a second clamping segment; the second clamping segment having a second mounting flange and a collet receiving portion extending axially away from the second mounting flange, a second bore extending through the second mounting flange and the collet receiving portion, the second mounting flange being removably coupled to the first mounting flange; a draw bar assembly comprising an elongate shaft and an collet receiving member extending from the elongate shaft, the elongate shaft extending axially from a first end to a second end thereof, the elongate shaft extending through the first bore of the first clamping segment, the collet receiving member being disposed in the second bore of the second clamping member; a collet coupled to the collet receiving member, the collet having tool or work piece holding jaws formed proximate an end thereof; a biasing unit mounted on or in the tubular member; a locking member removably secured to the elongate shaft of the draw bar assembly such that the biasing unit is compressed between the locking member and a portion of the first clamping segment; wherein the biasing member remains compressed when the first clamping segment is separated from the spindle of the machine tool.
