ABSTRACT:
A collet is composed of a number of segments each separated from an adjacent segment by means of a resilient plate-like separator which is connected to the two adjacent segments. The opposed faces of the separator contact opposed radial side surfaces of the adjacent segments and in order to increase the resilience of the segments, and thus to decrease the force required to close the collet, the faces of the separators are ribbed in a grid-like pattern. The separators permit the internal diameter of the collet to be varied to suit a range of workpiece diameters, while maintaining a parallel grip.
