Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of milling cutters, in particular to a lollipop hole enlarging milling cutter. Background Art

[0002] A milling cutter is a rotary tool with one or more teeth used for milling. Each tooth cuts off the excess of the workpiece intermittently in sequence during operation. Milling cutters are mainly used to process planes, steps, grooves, forming surfaces and cut off workpieces on milling machines. Hole expansion milling cutters are required when expanding holes.

[0003] When the milling cutter is used in the processing of aluminum alloy parts for aircraft fuselage, the reserved holes on the aluminum alloy parts for aircraft fuselage are relatively small. When processing the smaller reserved holes, the existing technology uses electric tools in combination with drills, rough milling with reaming cutters, fine milling with reaming cutters, rough reaming with reaming cutters, fine reaming with reaming cutters, and internal grinding for processing. The disadvantage of this process is that too many types and specifications of tools are required, and the processing efficiency is relatively slow. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a lollipop hole enlarging milling cutter.

[0005] The above technical purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical scheme: a lollipop reaming milling cutter, including a handle, a frustum body is provided at one end of the handle, a tool rod is provided at the end of the frustum body away from the handle, a spherical cutter head is integrally formed at the end of the tool rod away from the frustum body, and a circular arc blade is provided on the surface of the spherical cutter head.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the diameter of the spherical cutter head decreases from the middle to both sides. When processing a smaller reserved hole, the end of the spherical cutter head away from the tool handle enters the reserved hole. When the driving tool drives the tool handle, tool rod and spherical cutter head to rotate, the arc blade expands the smaller reserved hole, eliminating the tedious operation of using multiple milling cutters to process smaller reserved holes in traditional technology.

[0007] Furthermore, a sliding groove that is plugged into the knife rod is provided through the side wall of the frustum body close to the knife rod, a connecting component is provided between the frustum body and the knife rod, a receiving groove is provided on the side wall of the knife rod away from the spherical cutter head, the connecting component includes a spring fixed to the inner wall of the receiving groove and a limiting ball fixed to the free end of the spring, the limiting ball is slidably matched with the receiving groove, and a limiting groove connected to the sliding groove and matched with the limiting ball is provided in the frustum body.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the cutter head needs to be replaced, the staff only needs to hold the cutter rod and the handle and pull them in two directions. At this time, the limit ball is subjected to the pressure of the inner wall of the limit groove, shrinks into the accommodating groove and squeezes the spring, and then the cutter rod slides outward along the slide groove, thereby completing the disassembly of the spherical cutter head, so that the staff can replace spherical cutter heads of different sizes or replace spherical cutter heads with damaged arc blades.

[0009] Furthermore, the connection assembly also includes a clamping block fixedly connected to one end of the knife rod close to the truncated cone body, and one end of the knife handle close to the truncated cone body is provided with a clamping groove plug-fitted with the clamping block.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping block is clamped and fitted in the clamping groove, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the connection between the tool rod and the tool handle.

[0011] Furthermore, the tool rod is sleeved with an outer sleeve that cooperates with the tool rod, and the end of the truncated cone body away from the tool handle is fixed with an inner sleeve sleeved on the outside of the tool rod, and the inner side of the outer sleeve is threadedly connected with the outer side of the inner sleeve, and the inner diameter of the end of the outer sleeve away from the spherical cutter head is larger than the inner diameter of the end of the outer sleeve close to the spherical cutter head.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, after tightening the outer sleeve, the outer sleeve and the inner sleeve are pressed against one end close to the spherical cutter head, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection between the cutter rod and the frustum, thereby improving the stability of the spherical cutter head during use.

[0013] Furthermore, there are a plurality of circular arc blades, and the plurality of circular arc blades are evenly distributed about the axis of the blade rod.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the entire arc blade is used for cutting. For through holes with a depth less than 1 times the diameter, the three axes of the machine tool are linked to feed the tool at an oblique angle. Even if there is not enough space reserved at the installation position, the tool can still be fed.

[0015] Furthermore, the side wall of the circular arc blade is provided with chip removal grooves having the same number as the circular arc blade, and the extending direction of the chip removal grooves is spiral.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, it is convenient for the chip removal groove to discharge the debris generated during the processing, which is beneficial for the staff to use the hole expansion milling cutter to expand the workpiece.

[0017] Furthermore, a rubber gasket is arranged in the card slot.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the wear of the clamping block on the clamping slot is reduced, which is beneficial to extending the service life of the tool handle.

[0019] In summary, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. In the present application, the diameter of the spherical cutter head decreases from the middle to both sides. When processing a smaller reserved hole, the spherical cutter head moves away from one end of the tool handle and enters the reserved hole. When the driving tool drives the tool handle, tool rod and spherical cutter head to rotate, the arc blade expands the smaller reserved hole, eliminating the cumbersome operation of using multiple milling cutters to process the smaller reserved hole in the traditional technology;

[0021] 2. In this application, when the cutter head needs to be replaced, the staff only needs to hold the cutter rod and the handle and pull them in two directions. At this time, the limiting ball is subjected to the pressure of the inner wall of the limiting groove, shrinks into the receiving groove and squeezes the spring, and then the cutter rod slides outward along the slide groove, thereby completing the removal of the spherical cutter head, so that the staff can replace the spherical cutter head of different sizes or replace the spherical cutter head with a damaged arc blade;

[0022] 3. In this application, the entire arc blade is used for cutting. For through holes with a depth less than 1 times the diameter, the three axes of the machine tool are linked to feed the tool at an oblique angle. Even if there is not enough space reserved at the installation location, the tool can still be fed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] The handle 1 is made of hard alloy and has good structural strength. The truncated cone body 2 is fixed to one end of the handle 1 , and a slide groove 21 is provided through the side wall of the truncated cone body 2 near the shank 3 , and a limit groove 22 connected to the slide groove 21 is also provided in the truncated cone body 2 .

[0031] One end of the shank 3 is plugged into the slide groove 21, and the spherical cutter head 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the shank 3 away from the truncated cone body 2. A receiving groove 31 is provided on the side wall of the shank 3 away from the spherical cutter head 4, and a clamping groove 11 is provided on the end of the shank 1 close to the truncated cone body 2.

[0032] The arc blade 41 is arranged on the spherical cutter head 4, and the number of the arc blades 41 is several and evenly distributed about the axis of the cutter bar 3. In this embodiment, the entire arc blade 41 is used for cutting, and for through holes with a depth less than 1 times the diameter, the three axes of the machine tool are linked to feed at an oblique angle, so that the tool can still be fed even if there is not enough space reserved at the installation location.

[0033] In order to facilitate the chip removal groove 42 to discharge the debris generated during the processing, the side wall of the arc blade 41 is provided with chip removal grooves 42 with the same number as the arc blade 41, which is convenient for the staff to use the reaming milling cutter to reame the workpiece.

[0034] The connecting assembly 5 is used to detachably connect the truncated cone body 2 and the shank 3, so as to facilitate the replacement of the spherical cutter head 4 of different sizes. The connecting assembly 5 includes a spring 51, a limiting ball 52 and a clamping block 53. The spring 51 is fixed to the inner wall of the receiving groove 31, and the limiting ball 52 is fixedly connected to the free end of the spring 51. The limiting ball 52 is slidably matched with the receiving groove 31 and is clamped with the limiting groove 22. The clamping block 53 is fixedly connected to one end of the shank 3 close to the truncated cone body 2 and is plugged with the clamping groove 11. The spring 51, the limiting ball 52, the receiving groove 31 and the limiting groove 22 are all symmetrically arranged about the axis of the shank 3, and there are two groups of them, which is conducive to enhancing the stability of the connection between the shank 3 and the handle 1.

[0035] In order to further enhance the stability of the connection between the shank 3 and the truncated cone body 2, an outer sleeve 32 matching the shank 3 is sleeved on the shank 3, and an inner sleeve 23 sleeved on the outside of the shank 3 is fixed to the end of the truncated cone body 2 away from the handle 1. The inner side of the outer sleeve 32 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the inner sleeve 23, and the inner diameter of the end of the outer sleeve 32 away from the spherical cutter head 4 is larger than the inner diameter of the end of the outer sleeve 32 close to the spherical cutter head 4. In this embodiment, the staff can tighten the outer sleeve 32, and the outer sleeve 32 and the end of the inner sleeve 23 close to the spherical cutter head 4 are pressed tightly, which enhances the stability of the connection between the shank 3 and the truncated cone body 2, thereby improving the stability of the spherical cutter head 4 during use.

[0036] In order to reduce the wear of the block 53 on the slot 11, a rubber gasket 111 is provided in the slot 11. The rubber gasket 111 is made of a rubber material with good elastic properties, so that the end of the block 53 away from the spherical cutter head 4 is flexibly connected to the side of the slot 11 away from the spherical cutter head 4, which is beneficial to prolonging the service life of the tool handle 1.

[0037] The use principle of a lollipop hole-reaming milling cutter in the present embodiment is as follows: when the cutter head needs to be replaced, the staff only needs to hold the cutter rod 3 and the handle 1 and pull them in two directions. At this time, the limiting ball 52 is subjected to the pressure of the inner wall of the limiting groove 22, shrinks into the accommodating groove 31 and squeezes the spring 51, and then the cutter rod 3 slides outward along the slide groove 21, thereby completing the disassembly of the spherical cutter head 4, so that the staff can replace the spherical cutter heads 4 of different sizes or replace the spherical cutter heads 4 with damaged arc blades 41. During the hole reaming work, the diameter of the spherical cutter head 4 decreases from the middle to both sides. When processing a smaller reserved hole, the end of the spherical cutter head 4 away from the handle 1 enters the reserved hole. When the driving tool drives the handle 1, the cutter rod 3 and the spherical cutter head 4 to rotate, the arc blade 41 expands the smaller reserved hole, eliminating the cumbersome operation of using multiple milling cutters to process smaller reserved holes in traditional technology.
