DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] The present invention provides a tool for efficiently machining precision holes, including a tool body, see Figure 1 The difference between it and the existing technology is that a tool handle is provided at one end of the tool body, and the tool body is a three-section composite structure, namely a rough machining tool body 1 at the head, a semi-finishing tool body 2 in the middle, and a finishing tool body 3 at the tail. A cutting edge is provided at the front end of each tool body, and a continuous transition is maintained between the three cutting edges; the rough machining tool body is a drill structure, the semi-finishing tool body adopts a plunge milling cutter structure, and the finishing tool body adopts a two-edge spiral groove reamer structure.

[0025] In practice, since a three-stage composite tool structure is provided on a tool body, as the tool body advances, the three processes of rough machining, semi-finishing and finishing can be completed in one pass for the same part. The processing time is shortened by more than 60%, which reduces the processing cost and effectively improves the economic benefits.

[0026] Example 1 In this embodiment, a tool handle is provided at one end of the tool body, and the tool body is a three-section composite structure, namely a rough machining tool body 1 at the head, a semi-finishing tool body 2 in the middle, and a finishing tool body 3 at the tail. A cutting edge is provided at the front end of each tool body section, and a coherent transition is maintained between the three cutting edges, so that each section maintains good cutting ability; the rough machining tool body is a drill bit structure, and the drilling positioning stability is good, and parts can be rough-machined; the semi-finishing tool body adopts a plunger cutter structure, which is beneficial to improving the coaxiality and cutting stability of the rough machining section drilling; the finishing tool body adopts a two-edge spiral groove reamer structure, which can ensure the hole accuracy and hole surface roughness quality.

[0027] Specifically, the length ratio of the roughing cutter body 1 at the head, the semi-finishing cutter body 2 in the middle and the finishing cutter body 3 at the tail is 1:1.5-2.2:2.8-4.3. The preferred value is 1:1.68:3.86. The diameter of the roughing cutter body is 0.1mm smaller than that of the semi-finishing cutter body, and the diameter of the semi-finishing cutter body is 0.1mm smaller than that of the finishing cutter body. The drill head angle of the roughing cutter body is 140°, the cutting edge is two-edged, the width of the blade is 0.35-0.4mm, and the roughing cutter body is provided with a set of symmetrically designed internal cooling holes 12 and S-shaped chip grooves 13. Here, the S-shaped chip groove can increase the chip removal amount and enhance the cutting stability and extend the tool life when rough machining holes. The increased chip groove angle can make chip removal smoother, so a chip groove with a special angle is adopted for the tool structure of the present invention.

[0028] Furthermore, the angle of the chip groove is 55° (see Figure 5 ), the end edge rake angle is -1°, the end edge first clearance angle is 10°, the end edge second clearance angle is 25°, and the chisel edge chamfer is 80°. The negative end edge angle here can improve the blade strength, and the end edge first and second clearance angles can ensure both the strength and sharpness of the blade body.

[0029] The semi-finishing tool body has a top angle of 180 degrees, and the angle of cutting edge 21 is 90 degrees. The cutting edge is double-edged. The spacing between the double-edged cutting edges gradually increases from the end to the middle, and then gradually converges to the end. The spacing value is 0.03mm at the end, 0.048mm in the middle, and 0.035mm at the end. Furthermore, there is a certain height difference between the two cutting edges here, with a height difference of 0.011mm, which can further improve the processing accuracy and reduce the tolerance value of the processing size to 0.018mm.

[0030] A first transition edge is provided between the roughing cutter body and the semi-finishing cutter body, and the angle of the first transition edge is 45°±0.5°; a second transition edge 31 is provided between the semi-finishing cutter body and the finishing cutter body, and the angle of the second transition edge is 45°±0.5°, which can ensure the finishing dimensional tolerance requirements and roughness requirements.

[0031] Furthermore, the axial clearance angle 1 of the second transition edge is 9°, and the axial clearance angle 2 is 25°. Figure 6 Specifically, the axial clearance angle of the transition blade adopts a two-stage clearance angle design, which can ensure both the strength and sharpness of the cutter body and optimize the surface roughness of the workpiece to be processed.

[0032] Example 2 This embodiment describes a method for using a tool for efficiently machining precision holes, which is characterized by the following steps: a. Connect the composite tool to a standard strong tool holder, and calibrate the tool using a tool setting instrument, including tool length, tool diameter, and radial and axial runout data; b. Install the tool on a CNC machining center and transfer the CNC machining program to the CNC machine tool controller; the machining speed is 2000s / min and the cutting feed is F400mm / min; c. Align the part according to the part programming origin, and complete rough machining, semi-finishing, and finishing in sequence; d. Verify the finished product.

[0033] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, in step a, the composite tool is connected to a standard high-strength toolholder, which is then connected to the spindle end of a CNC machine tool. The CNC machine tool here is state-of-the-art, and its specific structure and operating principle will not be described here. In step c, rough machining is completed to a diameter of 9.8 mm, leaving a 0.1 mm margin on each side. The drill tip angle is 140° ± 0.5°, with a preferred value of 140.3°.

[0034] In step c, during semi-finishing, the part hole is semi-finished to φ9.9mm, leaving a single-side allowance of 0.05mm, where the cutting edge angle is 90°, and the tool tip is sharpened for protection; ensure smooth semi-finishing cutting, and correct the coaxiality deviation caused by the rough-machining hole to make the coaxiality deviation value less than 0.03mm.

[0035] In step c, during finishing, the part hole is finished to φ10 (+0.015 / 0) mm and the roughness is RZ8; the first and second transition blade angles are 45°±0.5, with the preferred values ​​being 44.8° for the first transition blade angle and 45.2° for the second transition blade angle, and the finishing blade is ground to ensure the finishing dimensional tolerance and roughness requirements, so that the finishing dimensional tolerance is less than or equal to 0.02 mm.

[0036] Through process capability verification, composite tools can effectively improve processing efficiency, increase equipment utilization, reduce tool investment, and reduce tool and production costs. At the same time, the finished product's aperture, position, roundness, and roughness all meet the requirements of the drawings.

[0037] The above is a further detailed description of the present invention in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, and it cannot be considered that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to the above description. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made, which should be considered to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
