Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of mechanical equipment manufacturing and relates to a tool rod for machining an internal threaded hole. In addition, the invention also relates to a method for machining an internal threaded hole. Background Art
[0002] In the process of machining internal threaded holes on a lathe, the conventional method is generally to perform rough turning first to remove most of the machining allowance. During the rough turning process, a larger back cutting amount and number of passes can be used to quickly form the thread groove. After rough turning, a certain amount of allowance will be left on the thread tooth side and bottom surface, which is convenient for subsequent fine turning. After the rough turning process is completed, fine turning is performed. The main purpose of fine turning is to ensure the thread size accuracy and surface roughness. During the fine turning process, a smaller back cutting amount and number of passes need to be used, and the cutting amount and cutting speed need to be strictly controlled. At the same time, attention should be paid to the clamping and tool setting accuracy of the tool to ensure the accuracy of the thread tooth angle. Workpieces processed using conventional methods often have problems such as ripples on both sides of the thread after processing, large roughness, taper (flare) on the workpiece, different tightness when checking from both ends with a plug gauge, and low production efficiency. Conventional processing methods, due to the limitation of workpiece size, often use thin and long tool bars with poor rigidity. When cutting, the tool head works on two or three sides, and the cutting force is large, which can easily cause vibration, resulting in ripples on the thread surface. After the ripples are formed, it is difficult to eliminate them. In addition, conventional processing methods also have poor tool bar rigidity, and there is a "cutting-off" phenomenon during processing, resulting in taper of the thread. In order to eliminate the ripples and taper, the cutting amount has to be reduced and the number of passes has to be increased, especially in the process of mass production, the production efficiency is very low. In summary, the conventional processing methods have the problems of low workpiece processing accuracy and low production efficiency. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a tool bar for machining internal threaded holes, which solves the problems of low workpiece machining accuracy and low production efficiency in the prior art.
[0004] Another object of the present invention is to provide the above-mentioned internal thread hole processing method.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is that a tool rod for processing internal threaded holes includes a tool rod body, the tool rod body is divided into a working section and an installation section, a dovetail is opened on the top wall at the end of the working section, a sliding block is slidably connected above the dovetail, a pair of top screw holes are opened on the side wall of the working section away from the installation section, a tool hole is opened on the side wall adjacent to the top screw hole, a threaded tool is installed in the tool hole, the top screw hole is communicated with the tool hole, a clamping screw is installed in the top screw hole, and the clamping screw is inserted into the tool hole through the top screw hole.
[0006] The present invention is also characterized in that: A dovetail groove is provided at the bottom of the sliding block, the dovetail is engaged with the dovetail groove, an outer arc is provided at the top of the sliding block, an end face chamfer is provided on the side wall of the sliding block, an adjustment gasket set is clamped between the top inner wall of the tool hole and the thread cutter, a bottom screw hole is provided at the bottom of the tool hole, and an adjustment screw is installed in the bottom screw hole.
[0007] Another technical solution adopted by the present invention is to provide the above-mentioned internal thread hole processing method, which is specifically carried out according to the following steps: Step 1: Fix the tool bar body on the tool holder, and install the cutting edge of the thread tool downward into the tool hole of the tool bar body; Step 2: Move the tool holder so that the end chamfer enters the thread bottom hole, and insert the adjustment shim set so that the tool tip falls on the center line of the part; Step 3: Move the tool holder to disengage the sliding block from the thread bottom hole, and tighten the thread cutter with the clamping screw; Step 4: Move the tool holder so that the end face chamfer enters the thread bottom hole; Step 5: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the first cutting amount; Step 6: Start the first thread cutting; Step 7: After cutting is completed, the tool is withdrawn; Step 8: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the second cutting amount; Step 9: Start the second thread cutting; The subsequent steps are the same as steps 7 to 9, and the cutting amount is gradually reduced.
[0008] The present invention is also characterized in that: Before installing the thread cutter into the tool bar body, adjust the two side cutting edges symmetrically. During the tool adjustment process, ensure that the gap between the highest point of the outer arc and the bottom hole of the thread is 0.05-0.1mm. When cutting threads, wait for the processed parts to rotate forward, and after the workpiece is processed, make 1-2 empty passes.
[0009] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the present invention has a simple structure and low manufacturing cost. By assembling a sliding block at the top of the end of the working section of the tool bar body, since the diameter of the outer arc surface of the sliding block is smaller than the diameter of the thread bottom hole of the workpiece, the sliding block can slide in the dovetail of the tool bar body through the dovetail groove, and the sliding process does not affect the radial feed of the tool. During processing, the workpiece rotates forward, and the cutting force is pressed downward. Due to the reverse clamping of the cutter head, the cutting resistance is upward, so that the highest point of the outer arc of the sliding block contacts the thread bottom hole of the workpiece, eliminating the vibration of the tool bar. This floating support strengthens the rigidity of the tool bar and reduces the phenomenon of tool yielding during the thread cutting process, thereby improving the surface quality of the workpiece and avoiding taper. Due to the enhanced rigidity of the tool bar, the feed amount can be increased each time, thereby improving production efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] like Figure 2 As shown, an adjusting shim set 6 is sandwiched between the inner wall of the top of the tool hole 102 and the threaded tool 3. A bottom screw hole 104 is formed at the bottom of the tool hole 102, and an adjusting screw 5 is installed in the bottom screw hole 104.
[0014] The internal thread hole processing method specifically comprises the following steps: Step 1: Fix the tool bar body 1 on the tool holder, and install the cutting edge of the thread tool 3 downward into the tool hole 102 of the tool bar body 1; Step 2: Move the tool holder so that the end face chamfer 203 enters the thread bottom hole, and insert the adjusting shim set 6 so that the tool tip falls on the center line of the part; Step 3: Move the tool holder to disengage the sliding block 2 from the thread bottom hole, and tighten the thread cutter 3 with the clamping screw 4; Step 4: Move the tool holder so that the end face chamfer 203 enters the thread bottom hole; Step 5: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the first cutting amount; Step 6: Start the first thread cutting; Step 7: After cutting is completed, the tool is withdrawn; Step 8: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the second cutting amount; Step 9: Start the second thread cutting; The subsequent steps are synchronized from step seven to step nine, and the cutting amount is gradually reduced.
[0015] Embodiment 1: A tool bar for processing an internal threaded hole comprises a tool bar body 1, which is divided into a working section 7 and a mounting section 8. A dovetail 101 is provided on the top wall at the end of the working section 7, and a sliding block 2 is slidably connected above the dovetail 101.

[0019] Embodiment 5: The method of using the tool bar device for processing internal threaded holes is implemented according to the following steps: Step 1: Fix the tool bar body 1 on the tool holder, and install the cutting edge of the thread tool 3 downward into the tool hole 102 of the tool bar body 1; Step 2: Move the tool holder so that the end face chamfer 203 enters the thread bottom hole, and insert the adjusting shim set 6 so that the tool tip falls on the center line of the part; Step 3: Move the tool holder to disengage the sliding block 2 from the thread bottom hole, and tighten the thread cutter 3 with the clamping screw 4; Step 4: Move the tool holder so that the end face chamfer 203 enters the thread bottom hole; Step 5: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the first cutting amount; Step 6: Start the first thread cutting; Step 7: After cutting is completed, the tool is withdrawn; Step 8: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the second cutting amount; Step 9: Start the second thread cutting; The subsequent steps are the same as steps 7 to 9, and the cutting amount is gradually reduced.
[0020] In addition, before the thread cutter 3 is installed into the tool rod 1, the two side edges are adjusted to be symmetrical. The symmetrical side edges can ensure that the amount of material removed on both sides of the tool is uniform during the cutting process, thereby avoiding uneven cutting force and causing thread shape distortion or dimensional deviation. At the same time, adjusting the two side edges to be symmetrical can reduce vibration and runout during the cutting process, making the tool more stable during the processing process, helping to reduce tool wear and improve processing efficiency and surface quality.
[0021] Embodiment 6: The method of using the tool bar device for processing internal threaded holes is implemented according to the following steps: Step 1: Fix the tool bar body 1 on the tool holder, and install the cutting edge of the thread tool 3 downward into the tool hole 102 of the tool bar body 1; Step 2: Move the tool holder so that the end face chamfer 203 enters the thread bottom hole, and insert the adjusting shim set 6 so that the tool tip falls on the center line of the part; Step 3: Move the tool holder to disengage the sliding block 2 from the thread bottom hole, and tighten the thread cutter 3 with the clamping screw 4; Step 4: Move the tool holder so that the end face chamfer 203 enters the thread bottom hole; Step 5: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the first cutting amount; Step 6: Start the first thread cutting; Step 7: After cutting is completed, the tool is withdrawn; Step 8: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the second cutting amount; Step 9: Start the second thread cutting; The subsequent steps are the same as steps 7 to 9, and the cutting amount is gradually reduced.
[0022] During the tool adjustment process, the clearance between the highest point of the outer arc 202 and the bottom hole of the thread must be 0.05-0.1mm. When cutting threads, the workpiece rotates forward. The workpiece rotates forward, and the cutting force is pressed downward. Due to the reverse clamping of the cutter head, the cutting resistance is upward, so that the highest point of the outer arc of the sliding block in the tool bar device contacts the bottom hole of the workpiece thread, eliminating the vibration of the tool bar, strengthening the rigidity of the tool bar, reducing the vibration of the spindle, and being beneficial to improving the surface quality of the workpiece thread.
[0023] Embodiment 7: The method of using the tool bar device for processing internal threaded holes is implemented according to the following steps: Step 1: Fix the tool shank body 1 on the tool rest, and install the cutting edge of the threading tool 3 downward in the tool hole 102 of the tool shank body 1; Step 2: Move the tool rest to make the end chamfer 203 enter the bottom thread hole, insert the adjustment shim group 6, and make the tool tip fall on the part center line; Step 3: Move the tool rest to disengage the sliding block 2 from the bottom thread hole, and fasten the threading tool 3 with the clamping screw 4; Step 4: Move the tool rest to make the end chamfer 203 enter the bottom thread hole; Step 5: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the first cutting parameters; Step 6: Start the first threading; Step 7: Retract the tool after cutting is completed; Step 8: Adjust the position of the tool tip according to the second cutting parameters; Step 9: Start the second threading; The subsequent steps are the same as Steps 7 to 9, and the cutting parameters are gradually reduced.
[0024] After the workpiece is machined to the required size, make the tool feed without cutting for 1 - 2 times. By making the tool feed without cutting, it is possible to further confirm whether the workpiece has achieved the required size and shape accuracy, which helps to ensure that each machining can achieve consistent quality and effect, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality. At the same time, by making the tool feed without cutting after the machining is completed, the direct contact time between the tool and the workpiece can be reduced, thereby extending the service life of the tool.
