DEVICE FOR SUPPLYING A TOOL ROTATING OR ROTATABLE ABOUT AN AXIS OF ROTATION FOR MACHINING MATERIALS WITH A COOLANT AND/OR LUBRICANT

摘要

A device for supplying coolant and/or lubricant to a rotating/rotatable tool includes a flow duct with an interior space through which the coolant and/or lubricant can flow, and which can be coupled to a tool's flow duct and a seal between the two flow ducts. The seal can be made of a material that is of a higher elasticity than the material of the device's flow duct and the tool's flow duct. As such, the seal also has a high durability for the coolant and/or lubricant. The seal can be configured to bear against at least one surface of the device's flow duct and against at least one surface of the tool to prevent leakage of the coolant and/or lubricant as the coolant and/or lubricant passes from the device's flow duct into the tool's flow duct. Further, a device is disclosed for coupling the tool to the device that supplies the coolant and/or lubricant.
