Lathe Tool Mounting Expander
First Claim
1. A lathe tool mounting expander assembly, said assembly being actuated by hydraulic fluid, said assembly comprising:
- (a) a block having a base, an inner end, an outer end, a compression end, and a compression face;
(b) a first cylindrical void extending into the block, the first cylindrical void having a floor, said void opening at the block'"'"'s compression end;
(c) a second cylindrical void extending into the block, the second cylindrical void having a wall and a floor, said void opening at the block'"'"'s outer end;
(d) first and second pistons respectively slidably mounted within the first and second cylindrical voids;
(e) a conduit extending between the first and second cylindrical voids, the conduit being adapted for conveying the hydraulic fluid from the second cylindrical void to the first cylindrical void; and
(f) a jack screw actuator connected operatively to the block, the jack screw actuator being adapted for driving the second piston against the hydraulic fluid, the hydraulic fluid, upon such piston driving, flowing through the conduit and moving the first piston.

Abstract
A hydraulic fluid actuated lathe tool mounting expander assembly incorporating a block having a base, an inner end, an outer end, a compression end, and a compression face; a first cylindrical void extending into the block, the first cylindrical void having a floor and opening at the block'"'"'s compression face; a second cylindrical void extending into the block, the second cylindrical void having a floor and opening at the block'"'"'s outer end; first and second pistons respectively slidably mounted within the first and second cylindrical voids; a conduit extending between the first and second cylindrical voids, the conduit being adapted for conveying the hydraulic fluid from the second cylindrical void to the first cylindrical void; and a jack screw actuator connected operatively to the block for driving the second piston against the hydraulic fluid for upwardly driving the first piston.
