Abstract
A tool holder that uses a dampening drive member to reduce slippage between the tool holder and the spindle and while further eliminating harmonic resonance. The tool holder is used in a rotating spindle that has at least one cam recess formed on a lower face thereof. The tool holder includes a conically tapered shank portion which is insertable into the spindle. Disposed adjacent to the shank portion is a flange portion. Extending about the flange portion is a compressible dampening drive member that has at least one cam portion sized and configured to engage a respective one of the cam recesses of the spindle. When the tool holder is secured to the spindle, the dampening drive member is compressed therebetween. The dampening drive member is adapted to eliminate harmonic resonance attributable to the use of the tool holder and prevent slippage between the tool holder and the spindle.
