BRIEF SUMMARY
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention starts from a clamping fixture for detachably fixing a tool, in particular a disc and comprising two flanges for clamping the tool therebetween and of which one flange is axially displaceable on the spindle. Clamping fixtures, in particular for disc-shaped tools are suitable particularly for portable, power hand tools, and in this respect in particular for grinding machines. A clamping fixture of this type has been disclosed (German Patent Specification 3,012,836) in which one flange, which is arranged on the side of the tool pointing towards the housing of the power hand tool, is axially movable relative to the spindle and designed as a driving plate. This rear supporting flange is coupled to the spindle in such a way as to transmit torque and is axially supported in an end position on a shoulder of this spindle. The other flange, which can be screwed onto the end of the spindle, consists of a nut having a separate clamping element which is roughly pot-shaped in cross-section and is supported axially against the flange of the clamping nut via a coil spring. When this clamping nut is screwed on and tightened, the pot-shaped clamping element is pressed axially against the tool via the axially compressed spring, and the tool is thereby tightened against the flange on the spindle side, the end face of a cylindrical extension of the clamping nut coming to bear directly on a facing axial side of the rear flange and, during further tightening of the clamping nut, this rear flange on the spindle side being tightened together with the clamping nut, if necessary until the rear flange comes to bear axially on the shoulder surface of the spindle. In an angle grinder, the grinding disc is thereby supposed to be mounted with a defined contact pressure and this contact pressure is supposed to be ensured. This clamping fixture is also intended to enable a quick and simple interchange of the grinding disc and at the same time avoid overloading of the power hand tool, in particular the angle grinder. This is because, if the torque acting on the grinding disc is too great, the grinding disc stops, while the rear flange and also the clamping nut having the clamping member, perform a relative movement thereto. The effect of the clamping nut automatically tightening further in operation, makes it considerably more difficult to loosen the clamping nut when changing the grinding disc. Therefore loosening of the clamping nut is here only possible with the assistance of a special auxiliary tool, the spindle, depending on the design of the machine, having to be appropriately counterheld by a second auxiliary tool, e.g., a spanner.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The object of the invention is to provide a clamping fixture in which a tool change is possible without any auxiliary tool, which tool change, in addition, can be performed quickly and safely. The clamping fixture is shifted from the front area, exposed when used as specified, into the area between tool and bearing flange of the housing so that any risk of damage, e.g. chafing on the work piece, is countered. Furthermore, the clamping fixture is simple and robust in construction as well as adequately protected against dirtying from the outside. Any wear of functionally important parts is taken into account. Simple and easy two-hand operation is achieved. The front clamping nut is taken over unchanged in a known manner so that recourse can be made here to standardised, cost-effective parts. At the same time, it is still possible in especially stubborn cases, e.g. in the event of a rusted-in clamping nut, for a spanner to be placed thereon, and the clamping nut can be released with this auxiliary tool. The supporting flange is in a rotationally fast positive-locking connection with the spindle so that relevent regulations are complied with. In addition, the supporting flange is removably attached, which further facilitates the tool change.
The novel features which are considered as characteristic for the invention are set forth in partic
