`concern eg the coil (5 ), which may have a conical shape. The sink (5 ) may also be multi-part and consist of
`several individual and possibly individually controllable coil parts. Furthermore, it is possible to use the coil ( 5 )
`and possibly existing housing ( 9 ) adjustable, wherein, for example, the inner diameter and the opening width for
`receiving different clamping cone (3 ) or the like can be adjusted. The cooling device ( 2 ) adapts to these
`changesin shape accordingly. The housing ( 8th ) is also capable of variation. In the embodiments shown it
`consists of an electrically insulating and magnetically conductive material. The housing ( 8th ) can also be
`supplemented with a pole piece on the side of the housing, which is the front cone end and the mouth of the tool
`(4) is adjacent.

`
`Die Erfindung betrifft eine induktive Behandlungseinrichtung, insbesondere eine induktive Spanneinrichtung fur
`Werkzeuge, mit den Merkmalen im Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruchs.
`
`Eine solche induktive Werkzeugeinspannvorrichtung ist aus der DE 20 2005 012 366 U1 bekannt. Die induktive
`Spanneinrichtung besitzt eine elektromagnetische Spule, die einen Aufnahmekegel mit elektromagnetischen
`Wechselfeldern unter Erzeugung von Wirbelstr6men erwarmt und auf weitet, so dass ein Werkzeug, z.B. ein
`Fraserschaft, in die Kegeléffnung eingesteckt und nach dem Abkthlen und Schrumpfen des Kegels im
`Spannschluss festgehalten werden kann. Fur die Spule ist eine Kuhleinrichtung vorgesehen, die mehrere
`Kuhlelemente aufweist, welche mit der Spule in Beruhrungskontakt gebracht werden kénnen. Die Kuhlelemente
`sind als Warmetauscher in Platten- oder Kanalform ausgebildet, die ggf. von einem flussigen Kuhimittel
`durchstr6mt werden. Die Spule hat dicht gepackte Wicklungen, die ggf. stellenweise Aussparungen fir die
`Einbringung eines Kuhlelements aufweisen.
`
`Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine bessere Kuthltechnik fur elektromagnetische Spulen aufzuzeigen.
`
`Die Erfindung lést diese Aufgabe mit den Merkmalen im Hauptanspruch.
`
`Die beanspruchte Kuhltechnik hat den Vorteil, dass die beabstandeten Wicklungen der Spule direkt von einem
`umgewalzten Kuhlfluid umflossen und kontaktiert werden kénnen. Der Warmetbergang von der aufgeheizten
`Wicklung auf das Kuhlfluid ist dadurch direkter und intensiver als bei den vorbekannten Warmetauschern, bei
`denen sich die Wande des Kuhlelements zwischen den Wicklungen und dem Kthlmedium befinden. Die direkte
`Durchstr6mung der Spule ermdglicht auBerdem eine gleichmaBigere KUhlung, weil die Fluidstr6mung alle
`Spulenbereiche oder zumindest einen sehr groBen Teil davon erreichen kann.
`
`Die erfindungsgemaBe Kihltechnik hat auBerdem den Vorteil, dass als Kuhlfluid nicht nur Flussigkeiten, sondern
`auch Gase, insbesondere die Umgebungsluft, eingesetzt werden kénnen. Letzteres ist besonders kostengunstig
`und erméglicht eine sehr einfache und effektive Kuhleinrichtung.
`
`Die beanspruchte Kuhleinrichtung hat ferner den Vorteil eines einfachen Aufbaus und einer einfachen
`Handhabung. Auch der Platzbedarf ist sehr gering. Besonders bei einer Luftkuhlung kénnen aufwandige
`Zusatzaggregate entfallen. Es genugen einfache Geblase oder andere Luftumwalzeinrichtungen. Die
`beanspruchte Kuhleinrichtung ist auBerdem besonders wirtschaftlich und kostengunstig. Dies gilt nicht nur fur die
`Anschaffung, sondern auch fur den Betrieb der Kuhleinrichtung und die Unterhaltskosten.
`
`Die Kuhleinrichtung arbeitet durch die gleichmaBige und intensive Kuhlwirkung besonders schnell und effektiv.
`Hierbei ist es auBerdem mdglich, zusatzlich zur Spule und deren Wicklungen auch den Spannkegel oder eine
`andere von der induktiven Behandlungseinrichtung beaufschlagte Aufnahme oder dergl. mit zu kuhlen. Die hohe
`Kuhlwirkung erméglicht kurze Taktzeiten. Die Spulenkuhlung kann wahrend des Spulenbetriebs und/oder in den
`Betriebspausen statt finden.
`
`Die Kuhleinrichtung kann mit unterschiedlichen Kuhlfluiden, insbesondere Luft, alternativ aber auch mit
`Flussigkeiten, z.B. elektrisch isolierenden Olen oderdergl. arbeiten. In den Unteranspriichen sind hierzu
`verschiedene Ausgestaltungsmoglichkeiten fur die Kuhleinrichtung angegeben. Die Kuhleinrichtung ist fur
`beliebige Spulenformen und Spulenkonstruktionen geeignet. Insbesondere kénnen die nach ein oder mehreren
`Richtungen beabstandeten Wicklungen in beliebig geeigneter Weise ausgebildet sein, z.B. in Platinenform oder in
`Gestalt von Drahtpaketen oder dergl..
`
`In den Unteranspruchen sind weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung angegeben.

`Die induktive Behandlungseinrichtung (1) kann in beliebiger Weise ausgebildet sein und besitzt mindestens eine
`elektromagnetische Spule (5) und eine Kihleinrichtung (2) fiir diese Spule(n) (5). Die induktive
`Behandlungseinrichtung (1) kann in beliebig geeigneter weise ausgebildet sein und zu beliebigen Zwecken dienen.
`In den gezeigten AusfUhrungsbeispielen ist die induktive Behandlungseinrichtung (1) als induktive
`Spanneinrichtung fur Werkzeuge (4) ausgebildet. Alternativ kann die induktive Behandlungseinrichtung (1) eine
`Heizeinrichtung zum Erwarmen von Werksticken oder dergl. sein. Mit der gezeigten Spanneinrichtung (1) wird
`eine Aufnahme (3), z.B. ein metallischer Spannkegel mit einer Aufnahmedffnung fur den Schaft eines Werkzeugs
`(4) durch die von der Spule (5) erzeugten elektromagnetischen Wechselfelder und dadurch induzierte
`Wechselstr6me erwarmt. Durch die Erwarmung weitet sich der Spannkegel (3) und ermdglicht das Einstecken des
`Werkzeugschaftes (4). Nach Abschalten und ggf. Entfernen der Spule (5) kuhit der Spannkegel (3) wieder ab,
`wobei er schrumpft und den eingesteckten Werkzeugschaft (4) im Schrumpf- und Spannsitz festhalt. Der
`Spannkegel (3) kann dann entnommen und an einer Werkzeugmaschine oder dergl. eingesetzt werden. Analog
`lasst sich durch Erwarmung und Weitung des Spannkegels (3) ein Werkzeug (4) auch wieder entnehmen und
`gegen ein anderes Werkzeug (4) tauschen. Die induktive Behandlungseinrichtung (1) kann eine Zustellvorrichtung
`fur die ein- oder mehrfach vorhandene elektromagnetische Spule (5) aufweisen. Die Kihleinrichtung (2) kann mit
`der Spule (5) mitbewegt werden.
`
`Die elektromagnetische Spule (5) kann von beliebiger Bauart sein. In den gezeigten Ausflihrungsbeispielen hat sie
`im wesentlichen eine Ringform und umgibt den im Spuleninnenraum angeordneten Spannkegel (3). Die Spule (5)
`ist mit einer geeigneten Energieversorgung und einer Steuerung versehen und kann ferner an einer Halterung
`verstellbar angeordnet sein, so dass ihre Uber den ortsfest gehaltenen Spannkegel (3) gestiilpt werden kann. Die
`genannten Zusatzeinrichtungenfir die Spule (5) sind aus Ubersichtsgriinden nicht dargestellt.
`
`Die Spule (5) besitzt mehrere Wicklungen (6), die in beliebig geeigneter Weise ausgebildet sein k6nnen.
`Beispielsweise kann es sich um Wicklungsplatinen handeln. Alternativ sind Drahtpakete oder Wicklungspakete
`méglich. Die Wicklungen (6) sind mit einem gegenseitigen Abstand (7) zur Bildung von Freiraumen zwischen den
`Wicklungen (6) angeordnet. Die Abstande oder Freiradume (7) k6nnen nach ein oder mehreren Richtungen
`bestehen. Z.B. kinnen scheibenférmige Wicklungslagen mit Abstand Ubereinander angeordnet sein, wodurch sich
`ebenfalls scheibenférmige Freiraume ergeben. Alternativ oder zusatzlich k6nnen die Wicklungen (6) der Ringspule
`radial beabstandet sein. Die Anordnung und Ausbildung der Freiraume (7) kann beliebig und insbesondere
`mehrachsig sein. Die Wicklungen (6) sind hierbei in geeigneter Weise untereinander elektrisch leitend verbunden.
`
`Die Kiihleinrichtung (2) weist eine Umwadlzeinrichtung (17) fur ein Kuhlfluid (15) auf, welches von der
`Umwélzeinrichtung (17) durch die Freiraume (7) in geeigneter Weise bewegt wird und mit den Wicklungen (6) in
`einen direkten Beruhrungskontakttritt. Hierdurch findet ein direkter WarmeUbergang von denen im Spulenbetrieb
`sich erwarmenden Wicklungen (6) auf das Kuhlfluid (15) statt. Durch die Erzeugung einer Fluidstr6mung (16) ist
`der Warmetbergang besondersintensiv und die Kuhlwirkung entsprechend effektiv.
`
`Die Kihleinrichtung (2), die Umwalzeinrichtung (17) und das eingesetzte Kuhifluid (15) k6nnen unterschiedlich
`ausgebildet sein. In den AusfUhrungsbeispielen sind hierflr verschiedene Varianten angegeben.
`
`In den AusfUhrungsformen von 1 bis 6 wird als Kuhifluid (15) ein Gas, insoesondere die Umgebungsluft der
`Behandlungseinrichtung (1) eingesetzt. In der Variante von 6 kommtein fllissiges KUhlfluid (15) zum Einsatz. Die
`Kuhlfluide (15), insbesondere die Kihlflussigkeit k6nnen elektrisch isolierende Eigenschaften haben. Diesist
`glinstig, wenn die stromfUhrenden Wicklungen (6) offen liegen.

`
`1 zeigt eine Variante, in der die Spule (5) von einem Gehduse (8) zumindest bereichsweise umgeben ist. Das
`Gehause(8) kann eine im wesentlichen zylindrische Form haben und an den Stirnwanden(10) Offnungen fur den
`Durchlass des Spannkegels (3) und des Werkzeugs (4) aufweisen. Bei der gezeigten Ausflihrungsform ist die
`Spule (5) in Radialrichtung gegeniiber dem Spannkegel (3) distanziert. Ein elektrischer Kontakt wird durch den
`Abstand vermieden. Alternativ kann das Gehduse (8) an der Innenseite eine zylindrische oder kegelférmige
`Innenwand (nicht dargestellt) aufweisen, welche die Spule (5) vom Spannkegel (3) trennt. Hierdurch erhalt das
`Gehduse(8) eine Ringkanalform. Die besagte Innenwand kann fir das Kihlfluid (15) durchlassig oder
`undurchlassig sein. Eine ahnliche Variante in der Gehausegestaltung ist auch bei 2 méglich.
`
`In der Variante von 1 besteht die Umwalzeinrichtung (17) aus zwei oder mehr Gebladsen (18, 19), die in
`Umfangsrichtung versetzt zueinander angeordnet sind und z.B. bezuglich der Kegel- und Spulenachse einander
`diametral gegentberliegen. Die Geblase (18, 19) k6nnen in beliebig geeigneter Weise ausgebildet und auBenseitig
`an der Seitenwandung (9) des Gehduses (8) angeordnet sein. Das eine Geblase (18) saugt Umgebungsluft an und
`druckt diese durch ein oder mehrere Gehdusedffnungen (11) in der Seitenwand (9) in den Gehauseinnenraum und
`durch die beabstandeten Wicklungen (6). Das z.B. diametral gegenUberliegende zweite Geblase (19) unterstitzt
`die im Gehduseinnenraum erzeugte und durch die Freiraume (7) gerichtete Fluidstr6mung (16), in dem es die
`Kuhlluft (15) aus dem Gehduse (8) absaugt und in die Umgebung ausblast. In der Variante von 1 wird eine im
`wesentlichen quer zur Kegel- und Spulenachse gerichtete Fluidstr6mung (16) erzeugt. Die Fluidstr6mung (16)
`kann je nach Wicklungsausbildung mehrlagig sein. In 1 sind die Wicklungen (6) lagenweise in Soulenachsrichtung
`mit Abstand Ubereinander angeordnet, wodurch quer zur Spulenachsegerichtete Freiraume (7) gebildet werden.
`
`2 zeigt eine Variante mit einer um 90° umgelenkten Fluidstr6mung (16) und einer anderen Umwalzeinrich
