Abstract
An adaptor for a tooling attachment employs a hydraulically actuated sleeve clamp which secures an adaptor sleeve to the spindle housing of a machine tool, the attachment being affixed to the sleeve. A coupling assembly permits locking the adaptor sleeve at selected angular positions relative to the spindle housing, indexing of the sleeve being accomplished through the use of a pinion drive and an indexing gear. Indexing of the adaptor sleeve is permitted by a clamp mechanism which engages a circumferentially extending slot of the adaptor sleeve and which causes engagement and disengagement of the coupling assembly.
