A power chuck includes a housing in which there is arranged a drive unit having a traction guide means moveable in the direction of a clamping axis. There are arranged two pairs of mutually diametrically opposite base jaws. The base jaws are guided radially, in the housing substantially perpendicularly to the clamping axis, and the drive unit is adapted to convert the movement of the traction guide means into the movement of the base jaws. According to the invention, it is proposed that the drive unit for each base jaw has a slider which is in engagement with the base jaw and which is moveable with a movement component on a circular path about the clamping axis.

Power chuck

A compensation chuck for centrically clamping workpieces includes a housing, two pairs of mutually diametrally opposite base jaws for receiving corresponding clamping jaws, and a drive unit which is moveable preferably by power clamping having two pairs of drivable entrainment members. Two adjacent entrainment members are respectively coupled together by a first rocker and two further adjacent entrainment members are coupled together by a second rocker. There is also provided a coupling ring which guides a first entrainment member and a diametrally opposite second entrainment member in the peripheral direction tangentially relative to the clamping axis, such that a motion play is provided between the entrainment members and the coupling ring in the radial direction.
