Introduction
Rainer Kohler is a prominent inventor located in Hausen o.V., Germany. With a knack for engineering, he has successfully secured two patents that demonstrate his expertise in clamping devices and work carrier changeover technologies.
Latest Patents
Kohler's latest innovations include a clamping device designed for holding two parts together, specifically for securing a workpiece palette on a workpiece table. This device features a bolster with a projecting shaped element attached to the first part, while a cooperating part with a recess for receiving the shape element is affixed to the second part. A sliding element engages with the projecting shape element and incorporates a peripheral recess that allows a clamping element to move. In its non-clamping position, the clamping element adjusts through a hole in the shape element, and upon sliding the sliding element, the clamping element thrusts outward into a clamping position, interlocking with a recess in the cooperating part.
Additionally, he has developed a work carrier changeover device for machine tools. This invention comprises a work carrier transfer device that facilitates the movement of a work carrier between machining and tooling stations. It features a coupling element rotatable around a vertical axis, coupled with two opposing coupling points for work carriers. The coupling element is pivotably mounted at the free end of a swivel arm, which can freely swivel around a vertical axis.
