ABSTRACT:
An improved tool pulling force magnification mechanism for use in a spindle is disclosed. It comprises: (a) a draw bar contained in the hollow portion of the spindle shaft, the draw bar having a front end and a back relative to a tool to be pulled; (b) a spring sleeved on the draw bar at the back end thereof, (c) a slider located at the back end of the draw bar behind the spring to receive a squeezing force therefrom, the slider is provided with a first ring slot having a first forwardly tapered surface on an outer surface thereof; (d) a second ring slot having a second forwardly tapered surface formed on an external surface of the hollow portion of the shaft near the first forwardly tapered ring slot; and (e) a recess provided at the back end of the draw bar having an end face. The first forwardly tapered ring slot, the second forwardly tapered ring slot, and the recess are so structured such that (i) during a pulling action, a pulling force equaling to a spring force from the spring acting on the ball at the end face plus a compressing force from the shaft acting on the ball at the second forwardly tapered surface will be generated, and (ii) during a releasing action, the ball will roll into the first ring slot and the compressing force from the shaft at the second forwardly tapered surface is no longer acting on the ball, so that only a releasing force that can overcome the spring force will be required.
