Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of drill bit technology, and in particular to a thermoplastic drill bit. Background Technology
[0002] In machining, thermoforming drills are used to solve the problem of joining thin-walled workpieces. The drill bit, rotating at high speed, contacts and rubs against the metal surface, generating temperatures of 600 to 800 degrees Celsius, which softens the metal and increases its ductility. Simultaneously, the drill bit presses down during rotation, causing the softened metal to extend along the circular hole, forming a thicker layer three times the original thickness, capable of withstanding greater torque and tensile force. With the continuous development and upgrading of materials in the 3C industry, from aluminum alloys and stainless steel to titanium alloys, conventional thermoforming drills with ordinary circular cross-sections are prone to tool breakage and low processing efficiency when machining titanium alloys due to the work hardening and bonding issues inherent in titanium.

[0033] In machining, thermoforming drills are used to solve the problem of joining thin-walled workpieces. The drill bit, rotating at high speed, contacts and rubs against the metal surface, generating temperatures of 600 to 800 degrees Celsius, which softens the metal and increases its ductility. Simultaneously, the drill bit presses down during rotation, causing the softened metal to extend along the circular hole, forming a thicker layer three times the original thickness, capable of withstanding greater torque and tensile force. With the continuous development and upgrading of materials in the 3C industry, from aluminum alloys and stainless steel to titanium alloys, conventional thermoforming drills with ordinary circular cross-sections are prone to tool breakage and low processing efficiency when machining titanium alloys due to the work hardening and bonding issues inherent in titanium.
[0034] Based on this, this application provides a thermoplastic drill bit to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. The thermoplastic drill bit provided by this application will be discussed in detail below.
[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 6This application provides a thermoplastic drill bit, comprising: a shank 100, a guide extrusion part 200, and a drill tip extrusion part 300. One end of the guide extrusion part 200 is connected to the shank 100, and the diameter of the guide extrusion part 200 is D. The drill tip extrusion part 300 is conical and includes a first working part 310 and a second working part 320. The small end of the first working part 310 is connected to the small end of the second working part 320, and the large end of the second working part 320 is connected to the other end of the guide extrusion part 200. The first working part 310 is hemispherical. The surface of the second working part 320 includes a first arc-shaped extrusion part 321 and a planar clearance part 322 spaced apart. The cross-sectional profile of the second working part 320 is formed by a first arc-shaped segment 323 formed by the first arc-shaped extrusion part 321 and a straight segment 324 formed by the planar clearance part 322 spaced around each other. There is a first height difference h1 between the first arc-shaped segment 323 and the straight segment 324.
[0036] The hot melt drill bit provided in this application has a conical extrusion section 300 for better drilling. At the same time, the first working section 310 of the extrusion section 300 is hemispherical to improve the drilling effect and reduce the impact of drilling force, thus avoiding the failure of the extrusion section 300. The surface of the second working section 320 includes a first arc-shaped extrusion section 321 and a planar clearance section 322 arranged at intervals. There is a first height difference h1 between the first arc-shaped segment 323 and the straight segment 324 formed by the two on the cross section. While ensuring a certain extrusion effect, the planar clearance section 322 can also improve the problem of adhesion between the hot melt drill and the workpiece material.
[0037] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, the surface of the second working part 320 is provided with four first arc-shaped extrusion parts 321 and four planar clearance parts 322. The first arc-shaped extrusion parts 321 and the planar clearance parts 322 are distributed at intervals on the periphery of the second working part 320. This application does not specifically limit the arrangement of the first arc-shaped extrusion parts 321 and the planar clearance parts 322.
[0038] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 It is understood that the first working part 310 is disposed within a range of 0.05*D extending outward from the shank 100 about the axis, and the second working part 320 is disposed within a range of 0.05*D to 0.85*D extending outward from the shank 100 about the axis. That is, the first working part 310, which is formed in a circular cross-section at an axial position of 0.05*D, not only improves the drilling effect but also mitigates the impact of drilling force and prevents the drill tip extrusion part 300 from breaking off and failing. The second working part 320, which is disposed at an axial position of 0.05*D to 0.85*D, provides a continuous extrusion effect for drilling.
[0039] Reference Figure 6It is understandable that the first height difference h1 is 0.01 to 0.1 mm. A certain first height difference h1 is formed between the first arc segment 323 formed by the first arc extrusion part 321 and the straight segment 324 formed by the planar clearance part 322, thereby improving the problem of adhesion between the hot melt drill and the processed material.
[0040] Continue to refer to Figure 6 It is understandable that the length of the first arc segment 323 is 0.25*D, which allows the second working part 320 to not only ensure a certain extrusion effect, but also improve the adhesion between the hot melt drill and the processed material.
[0041] Reference Figure 7 It is understood that the guide extrusion section 200 includes a second arc-shaped extrusion section and a second clearance section spaced apart. The cross-sectional profile of the guide extrusion section 200 is formed by a second arc-shaped segment 210 formed by the second arc-shaped extrusion section and a clearance section formed by the second clearance section spaced apart. There is a second height difference h2 between the second arc-shaped segment 210 and the clearance section. The second height difference h2 between the second arc-shaped extrusion section and the second clearance section ensures that the titanium alloy material does not completely adhere to the tool material at high temperature during the extrusion process in the second arc-shaped extrusion section, thus preventing tool failure and inability to perform normal machining.
[0042] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, there are four second arc-shaped extrusion parts and four second clearance parts. The second arc-shaped extrusion parts and the second clearance parts are distributed at intervals around the periphery of the guide extrusion part 200. This application does not specifically limit the arrangement of the second arc-shaped extrusion parts and the second clearance parts.
[0043] Continue to refer to Figure 7 It is understandable that the second height difference h2 is 0.01 to 0.1 mm. A certain second height difference h2 is formed between the second arc-shaped segment 210 formed by the second arc-shaped extrusion part and the clearance segment formed by the second clearance part, thereby further improving the problem of adhesion between the hot melt drill and the processed material.
[0044] Continue to refer to Figure 7It is understood that the clearance section includes a first transition arc section 220, a clearance arc section 230, and a second transition arc section 240 connected in sequence. The ends of the first transition arc section 220 and the second transition arc section 240 away from the clearance arc section 230 are respectively connected to two adjacent second arc sections 210. Specifically, the second height difference h2 between the second arc section 210 and the clearance arc section 230 is 0.01 to 0.1 mm. The second arc section 210 and the clearance arc section 230 can ensure a certain extrusion effect during drilling, while also improving the adhesion between the hot melt drill and the workpiece. The second arc section 210 and the clearance arc section 230 are transitioned through the first transition arc section 220 or the second transition arc section 240, which improves the structural stability of the guide extrusion section 200.
[0045] Continue to refer to Figure 7 It is understandable that the length of the clearance arc segment 230 is 0.45*D, and the length of the second arc segment 210 is 0.15*D. The second arc segment 210 and the clearance arc segment 230 can ensure a certain squeezing effect during drilling, while also improving the adhesion between the hot melt drill and the workpiece.
[0046] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 It is understood that the hot melt drill bit provided in this application also includes an arc-shaped transition connection part 400. One end of the guide extrusion part 200 is connected to the shank 100 through the arc-shaped transition connection part 400. The shank 100, the arc-shaped transition connection part 400, the guide extrusion part 200 and the drill tip extrusion part 300 are integrally formed, which can increase the overall strength of the tool and prevent the tool from breaking due to axial force and vibration generated during the rotation process, thus playing a role in improving the performance of the tool.
[0047] The hot melt drill bit provided in this application, after the above-mentioned structural design improvement, will undergo post-processing to further enhance the performance of the tool. By performing sandblasting polishing on the entire extrusion part of the tool, the surface roughness of the tool is significantly reduced, the adhesion between the tool material and the workpiece material and the smoothness of the hole wall are improved. At the same time, by coating the extrusion part of the tool, the surface hardness and oxidation resistance temperature of the tool are increased, which can delay the failure of the tool.
[0048] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application.
