AI Technical Summary
The processing of the volume keyway on the side wall of the mobile phone case has problems such as low efficiency, large tool consumption and high tool damage rate. It is mainly because the T-position of the T-shaped milling cutter is too thin, making it difficult to effectively process the keyway.
A T-shaped milling cutter including a cutting rod and a disc-shaped knife core is designed. The disc-shaped knife core is arranged in a circumference with 8 cutting edge diameters of 9mm, the spiral direction is opposite, the spiral angle is 15 degrees, and a countersink hole is provided on the lower end surface.
By increasing the tool outer diameter and designing the 8-edge structure, the processing efficiency and service life are improved; the counterhole design improves the strength and rigidity of the tool, reducing the difficulty of production.

Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of machining tools, and particularly relates to a T-shaped milling cutter for machining the volume key groove on the side wall of a mobile phone shell. Background Art
[0002] In this era of highly developed electronic products, high-end smart phones have become the most popular hot-selling products in the market. Therefore, the requirements for the machining of mobile phone shells are getting higher and higher. There are always many deficiencies in the machining of the volume key groove on the side wall. Due to the limitation of the size of the key groove itself, the machining efficiency is low and the tool consumption is large. This is because of the limitation of the size of the key groove itself, resulting in a very thin T position of the T-shaped milling cutter. So there are difficulties in machining the tool itself. The same is true when using the T-shaped milling cutter to machine the key groove. The damage rate of the tool is relatively high, and the outer diameter of the tool itself is small, so the entire key groove cannot be machined quickly. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a T-shaped milling cutter with reasonable and reliable structure, strong rigidity, high service life, high machining efficiency, and capable of ensuring the smooth machining of the volume key groove on the side wall of a mobile phone shell by the tool.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides a T-shaped milling cutter for machining the volume key groove on the side wall of a mobile phone shell, which includes a tool shank and a disc-shaped cutter core. The disc-shaped cutter core is coaxially connected to the end of the tool shank. Eight cutting edges are evenly arranged in the circumferential direction of the disc-shaped cutter core. The cutting edge diameter formed by the eight cutting edges is 9 mm. The spiral directions of adjacent cutting edges are opposite. Among them, the spiral angles of four right-handed cutting edges are 15 degrees, and the spiral angles of four left-handed cutting edges are 15 degrees. A counterbore is provided on the lower end face of the disc-shaped cutter core.
[0005] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the diameter of the counterbore is 7.2 mm to 7.5 mm, and the depth of the counterbore is 0.2 mm.

A counterbore 4 is provided on the lower end face of the disc-shaped cutter core 2.
[0025] Therefore, the key points of a T-shaped milling cutter for machining the volume key groove on the side wall of a mobile phone shell in an embodiment of the present invention are as follows: First, by increasing the outer diameter of the tool, that is, designing the cutting diameter of the disc-shaped cutter core 2 to be 9 mm, it is beneficial to quickly machine the entire key groove; Second, the disc-shaped cutter core 2 adopts an eight-edge structure and is designed in a left- and right-handed form. Among them, the spiral angles of four right-handed cutting edges are 15 degrees, and the spiral angles of four left-handed cutting edges are 15 degrees. Such a design can greatly improve the machining efficiency and service life of the tool; Third, by designing a counterbore 4 on the lower end face of the disc-shaped cutter core 2, on the one hand, it can improve the strength and rigidity of the tool and further improve the service life of the tool. On the other hand, there is no need to open a tooth gap in the middle of the lower end face of the disc-shaped cutter core 2, reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the tool.
[0026] Exemplarily, to ensure the strength and rigidity of the tool, the thickness of the disc-shaped cutter core 2 is 0.4 mm, the diameter of the counterbore 4 is 7.2 mm - 7.5 mm, the depth of the counterbore 4 is 0.2 mm, and the core thickness of the disc-shaped cutter core 2 is 6.5 mm.
[0027] Exemplarily, to ensure the machining efficiency of the cutting tool, the cutting edge 3 is provided with an outer circumferential edge 31, an upper end edge 32 and a lower end edge 33. The outer circumferential edge 31 is formed on the outer circumference of the disc-shaped cutter core 2, the upper end edge 32 is formed on the upper end face of the disc-shaped cutter core 2, and the lower end edge 33 is formed on the lower end face of the disc-shaped cutter core 2.

The first clearance angle is 12 degrees, and the second clearance angle is 25 degrees. Such a design not only ensures the rigidity of the cutting tool but also ensures that the cutting force of the cutting tool is not affected.
[0028] Exemplarily, the tool shank 1 includes a tool handle 11, a tapered portion 12 connecting the tool handle 11, and a tool stem 13 connecting the tapered portion 12 and the disc-shaped cutter core 2.
