Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of drill bit technology, and in particular to a special drill bit for use in honeycomb aluminum panels. Background Technology

[0002] Honeycomb aluminum materials are widely used in aerospace, construction, and transportation due to their advantages such as light weight, high strength, and corrosion resistance. However, due to their special structure and physical properties, problems such as burrs, tearing, and deformation are prone to occur during processing. A drill bit is a rotating tool that creates holes in the material by cutting or grinding.

[0003] In existing technologies, drill bits often struggle to guarantee processing accuracy and surface quality when machining honeycomb aluminum materials, while also exhibiting low processing efficiency. To address these issues, we propose a specialized drill bit for honeycomb aluminum panels. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where drill bits often fail to guarantee processing accuracy and surface quality, and also suffer from low processing efficiency when processing honeycomb aluminum materials. Therefore, this invention proposes a special drill bit for honeycomb aluminum panels.

[0006] A special drill bit for use in honeycomb aluminum panels, comprising:

[0007] Drill bit body;

[0008] The drill bit head is connected to one end of the drill bit body;

[0009] The main cutting edge is located on the drill head.

[0010] The first and second auxiliary cutting edges are both located on the drill head and are used to trim the cutting edges. The outer side of the drill head is coated with a wear-resistant coating, which is a composite coating composed of titanium nitride and tungsten carbide. Chip removal grooves are provided on the outer side of the drill body to remove chips. Guide grooves are provided on the drill head, and the guide grooves adopt a spiral design to ensure smooth chip discharge.

[0011] Furthermore, the drill bit head adopts a stepped design for segmented material cutting.

[0012] Furthermore, the main cutting edge is provided with a apex angle of 120°.

[0013] Furthermore, the first auxiliary cutting edge is provided with a front angle of 10°-15°, the second auxiliary cutting edge is provided with a rear angle of 5°-8°, and an alloy cutting tip is connected to the drill head. The front and rear angles are used to adapt to the low cutting force requirements of the honeycomb aluminum material.

[0014] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0015] 1. This solution uses a combination design of a stepped main cutting edge, a first auxiliary edge, and a second auxiliary edge to cut the material in segments, gradually reducing cutting resistance while ensuring uniform distribution of cutting force and reducing machining vibration.

[0016] 2. This solution, through the design of chip removal grooves and guide grooves, can ensure smooth chip discharge and prevent blockage.

[0017] This invention achieves efficient and precise machining of honeycomb aluminum materials by combining a stepped main cutting edge, a first auxiliary edge, and a second auxiliary edge, along with optimized geometric parameters and a wear-resistant coating process, thereby reducing machining defects and improving machining quality and efficiency.
