Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of milling cutter design, in particular to a novel milling cutter with an extendable shank. Background Art
[0002] A milling cutter is a rotating tool with one or more teeth used for milling processing. When working, each tooth intermittently cuts off the excess of the workpiece in turn. The milling cutter is mainly used to process planes, steps, grooves, formed surfaces and cut off workpieces on a milling machine. In order to extend the service life of the milling cutter as much as possible when the thickness of the workpiece is different, some improvements need to be made to the milling cutter body. The existing milling cutter can only be moved up and down by machine tool control, but the distance between its cutter head and the shank cannot be increased or reduced. In the processing of some very thick workpieces, it is very likely that the distance between the milling cutter head and the shank will be less than the thickness of the workpiece, making it impossible to process. When the workpiece is very thin, the extension distance of the milling cutter head is too long, which can easily cause the milling cutter to break, so some improvements are needed.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to have a new type of milling cutter with an extendable shank, which has strong design practicality, an extendable milling cutter and a wide range of applications. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a novel milling cutter with an extendable shank to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a new type of milling cutter with an extendable shank, comprising a milling cutter head, a shank is slidably connected to the surface of the milling cutter head, a blade is fixedly connected to the surface of the shank, the blade is fixed by a machine tool, a threaded barrel is fixedly connected to the inside of the blade, a screw is threadedly connected to the inside of the threaded barrel, one end of the screw is fixedly connected to a push rod, the inner wall of the blade is fixedly connected to a push block, one end of the milling cutter head is fixedly connected to a rack plate 2, the rack plate 2 is slidably connected to the push block, one side of the shank is fixedly connected to a pair of fixed plates 2, the fixed plate 2 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod, the surface of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to a gear, the gear is meshed with the rack plate 2, the friction coefficient of the rotating rod and the fixed plate 2 is relatively large, a pair of rack plates 1 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the blade, the rack plate 1 is meshed with the gear, one end of the rack plate 1 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate, a pair of fixed plates 1 are fixedly connected to the inside of the blade, and a pair of springs are directly provided between the fixed plate 1 and the connecting plate.
[0006] According to the above technical solution, a pair of guide rods are fixedly connected to one side of the fixing plate, the guide rods are located at the center of the spring, and the guide rods pass through the connecting plate and are slidably connected to the inside of the connecting plate.
[0007] According to the above technical solution, rubber pads are fixedly connected to the second surface of the rack plate, and the position of the rubber pads corresponds to the push rod.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the utility model are:
[0009] (1) By setting up a gear rack assembly, the screw rod is rotated to make it out of the state of squeezing the rack plate 2. At this time, the milling cutter head is pulled, and the milling cutter head drives the rack plate 2 fixed on one side to move downward. The rack plate 2 moves downward to drive the gear engaged on one side to rotate. The gear rotates and pushes the rack plate 1 engaged on the other side to slide in the opposite direction. The rack plate 1 drives the connecting plate to squeeze upward, and the spring contracts. At this time, the screw rod is rotated, and the screw rod moves toward the inside of the blade, driving the push rod to press against the rack plate 2. The push block is fixed by force. The extension length of the milling cutter head is reasonably selected according to the processing conditions. When processing some workpieces with smaller thickness, the extension distance of the milling cutter head can be reduced, reducing the possibility of tool breakage, and effectively extending the tool life. By rotating and loosening the screw rod, the elastic force of the spring can be used to restore the milling cutter head and the tool handle to their original default length, thereby increasing work efficiency.
[0010] (2) A guide rod is provided to prevent the spring from bending and to assist the spring in stretching or shortening, so that the displacement of the connecting plate is smoother.
[0011] (3) A rubber pad is provided to protect the rack plate 2 and prevent the surface of the rack plate 2 from being worn due to excessive squeezing force of the push rod. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
