Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining technology for the outer diameter of hardware workpieces, specifically a forming groove tool for machining the outer diameter of hardware workpieces. Background Technology

[0002] Hardware workpieces come in a wide variety of types, from ordinary mechanical parts to precision electronic components, and grooving cutters for outer diameter forming need to meet different processing requirements. For example, in automobile manufacturing, the machining of outer diameter grooves for parts such as engine crankshafts and gearbox gear shafts requires grooving cutters to ensure high precision and high surface quality to ensure the fitting accuracy and service life of the parts; while in electronic equipment manufacturing, the machining of outer diameter grooves for small hardware parts places even higher demands on the dimensional accuracy and cutting edge sharpness of the grooving cutters.

[0003] Currently available machining tools for external grooving have complex structures and unreasonable designs. They all use a feed-through machining method, which makes programming troublesome, machine setup difficult, and error rates relatively high. This increases the setup time for initial parts, places higher demands on programmers, and carries a greater risk of tool contact at the bottom of the groove after machining, resulting in low machining efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, the inventor proposes a forming groove tool for machining the outer diameter of hardware workpieces. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a forming groove cutter for machining the outer diameter of hardware workpieces. It has the advantages of simple structure, reasonable design, one-time forming of outer diameter groove, low programming error rate, and high processing efficiency, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a forming groove cutter for machining the outer diameter of a hardware workpiece, comprising: a cutter bar, the cutter bar including a cutter body, a cutter holder provided at one end of the cutter body, a mounting groove provided on the side of the cutter holder, and a threaded hole penetrating the cutter holder provided in the mounting groove;

[0007] The blade is installed in a threaded hole and includes a cutting edge. The cutting edge has a through hole adapted to the threaded hole and is provided with a plurality of cutting heads. Each cutting head is provided with a clearance surface and a beveled surface, and a cutting head is clearly visible between the clearance surface and the beveled surface.

[0008] A screw, which passes through a through hole and a threaded hole from the outside in, and fixes the blade to the blade holder.

[0009] Preferably, the mounting groove is composed of a mounting surface, a first limiting surface, and a second limiting surface, wherein the first limiting surface and the second limiting surface are inclined and form an included angle between the first limiting surface and the second limiting surface, the angle value of which is between 65° and 75°.

[0010] Preferably, the first limiting surface and the second limiting surface gradually move closer together from one end near the threaded hole toward the other end.

[0011] Preferably, the side of the clearance surface is arc-shaped, and there are three cutter heads, with each cutter head having a guide groove on both sides that is concave and connected to the clearance surface.

[0012] Preferably, each of the cutter heads has a fixing surface at one end, and each fixing surface is fitted to the mounting groove.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model provides a forming groove cutter for machining the outer diameter of hardware workpieces. The forming groove cutter includes a cutter bar, a blade and a screw. The overall structure is simple and the design is reasonable. By setting three cutter heads on the outer edge of the cutter head, and by setting the cutter heads with equal outer diameter width, the outer diameter groove can be formed in one step, which greatly simplifies programming. The programming time is reduced by 50% compared with ordinary tool structure, and the programming error rate is reduced by 70%.

[0015] 2. The blade in this utility model includes a cutting insert with a through hole adapted to the threaded hole. The cutting insert has several cutting heads, each with a clearance surface and a beveled surface. A cutting head is clearly visible between the clearance surface and the beveled surface. The workpiece is machined using cutting heads with a diameter equal to the outer diameter of the metal workpiece. The machining time for a single groove with a conventional grooving cutter is 10 seconds. Our forming grooving cutter, machining an outer diameter groove, takes only 3 seconds, increasing machining efficiency by 70%. This significantly shortens machining time and greatly improves productivity. Attached Figure Description
