Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a cutting tool, in particular to a cutting tool for removing the intersecting edge of the inner hole of a tee joint. Background Art

[0002] The tee joint is an indispensable part in the hydraulic oil circuit of an aircraft. There are multiple tee joints in the entire hydraulic control oil circuit of the aircraft. As shown in the attached Figure 1 A tee joint 1 applied to the hydraulic oil circuit of an aircraft is shown. At the intersection of its internal horizontal hole 1-1 and vertical hole 1-2, a sharp intersecting edge 1-3 is formed. The rubber seal inside the tee joint 1 is often scratched by the intersecting edge 1-3 during the assembly process. The falling rubber debris contaminates the oil fluid system, posing a safety hazard to the flight of the aircraft. To solve the above problems, it is necessary to process the intersecting edge 1-3 of the inner hole of the tee joint 1 to make the edge of the intersecting line smoothly transition, and ensure that the transition arc surface meets the precision requirements of R being 0.1 - 0.3 mm and the surface roughness Ra being 0.8.

[0003] As shown in the attached Figure 2 To ensure that the transition arc surface meets the precision requirements after the intersecting edge 1-3 of the inner hole of the tee joint 1 is removed, technicians have designed a special device for removing the intersecting edge of the inner hole of the tee joint. This intersecting-edge cutting device realizes the cutting process of the intersecting edge 1-1 of the inner hole of the tee joint 1 through the cooperation of a workpiece clamping and positioning mechanism 2, a cutting tool 3, a cutting trajectory guiding mechanism 4 for the cutting tool, a measuring mechanism 5 for the axial movement distance of the cutting tool, and a feed rate control mechanism 6 for the cutting tool, so that the intersecting edge 1-1 smoothly transitions. Therefore, it is also necessary to optimize the specific structure of the cutting tool assembly 3. Summary of the Invention
