Abstract
A tool holder includes a hollow taper shank chucking device having a center axis, a chucking device, a tension rod which cooperates with the chucking device and an actuating unit by means of which the tension rod may be actuated, i.e., displaced. The actuating unit has an actuating element which is movable at an angle relative to the center axis and which includes at least one actuating part. The angle may be 90°. The tension rod is provided with at least one engagement part. The actuating part and engagement part form a wedge mechanism which is used to convert a radial motion of the actuating element, i.e., a displacement perpendicular to the center axis, into an axial displacement of the tension rod in the direction of the center axis.
