[0029] In this embodiment, the cutting part 2 is made of high-speed steel. As another solution, the cutting part 2 can also be made of cemented carbide. The outer surface of the cutting part 2 is provided with a titanium coating 22 to ensure the hardness and wear resistance of the cutting part 2 and improve the service life and cutting performance of the cutting part 2.

[0030] The outer wall of the cutting portion 2 is provided with a plurality of chip grooves 21, which are evenly distributed along the circumference of the cutting portion 2. Preferably, there are three chip grooves 21, through which the chips generated during the machining process are discharged, thereby improving the stability of the tap during rotation.

[0031] A connecting portion 3 is integrally provided at the end of the cutting portion 2, a connecting groove 4 is provided on the main body 1, the connecting portion 3 is matched with the connecting groove 4, the connecting portion 3 is inserted into the connecting groove 4, a plurality of reinforcing protrusions 5 are provided on the outer wall of the connecting portion 3, a plurality of positioning grooves 6 are provided on the inner wall of the connecting groove 4, the reinforcing protrusions 5 are matched with the positioning grooves 6, and a plurality of reinforcing protrusions 5 are respectively inserted into a plurality of positioning grooves 6.

[0032] By arranging a plurality of reinforcing protrusions 5 on the outer wall of the connecting portion 3, the structural strength of the connecting portion 3 is ensured, which helps to resist the torsional force and impact force generated during the processing, thereby improving the service life; and by cooperating with a plurality of positioning grooves 6, the connection stability between the cutting portion 2 and the main body 1 is enhanced.

[0033] An insert block 9 is detachably provided on the main body 1, a slot 13 is opened on the end face of the main body 1, the opening direction of the slot 13 is parallel to the central axis direction of the main body 1, the insert block 9 is inserted into the slot 13, and a fixing piece for fixing the insert block 9 is detachably connected to the main body 1.

[0034] A guide slot 19 is provided on the inner wall of the slot 13, and a guide slide bar 18 is provided on the outer wall of the insert block 9. The guide slide bar 18 is adapted to the guide slot 19 and the two slide in cooperation. Through the guiding cooperation between the guide slider and the guide slot 19, the insert block 9 is smoother when inserted into the slot 13 or taken out from the slot 13, with reduced resistance, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the insert block 9 and also reduces the wear between the insert block 9 and the slot 13.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fixing member includes a fixing screw 15, a fixing groove 16 is opened on the side wall of the connecting portion 3, and a countersunk hole 17 is opened on the side wall of the main body 1. The countersunk hole 17 corresponds to the fixing groove 16. The fixing screw 15 passes through the countersunk hole 17 and is threadedly connected to the fixing groove 16. The fixing screw 15 cooperates with the fixing groove 16 and the countersunk hole 17 to ensure the relative stability of the plug 9 and the main body 1.

[0036] A linkage block 10 is slidably arranged in the main body 1, a guide hole 14 is opened in the main body 1, the linkage block 10 is slidably arranged in the guide hole 14, a linkage groove 7 is opened on the outer wall of the connecting part 3, the guide hole 14 is aligned with the linkage groove 7, and the guiding effect of the guide hole 14 on the linkage block 10 ensures that the linkage block 10 can stably enter the linkage groove 7 when sliding.

[0037] A spring 8 is provided in the linkage groove 7, and the insert block 9 can push the linkage block 10 to insert into the linkage groove 7 and squeeze the spring 8, so that the main body 1 and the cutting part 2 remain relatively fixed. Specifically, when the linkage block 10 is inserted into the linkage groove 7, the position of the linkage block 10 is restricted by the cooperation of the insert block 9 and the spring 8, thereby ensuring the stability of the linkage block 10, and the linkage block 10 cooperates with the linkage groove 7 and the guide hole 14, so that the connecting part 3 cannot be separated from the connecting groove 4.

[0038] The end of the insert block 9 is provided with a slope 11, and the end of the linkage block 10 is provided with a slope 2 12. The slope 11 can be abutted against the slope 2 12.

[0039] Method for disassembling and assembling the cutting part 2:

[0040] When disassembling the cutting part 2, first turn the fixing screw 15 to remove it, and then take the insert block 9 out of the slot 13. At this time, the elastic restoring force generated by the elastic deformation of the spring 8 pushes the linkage block 10 away from the linkage groove 7, and then the connecting part 3 is separated from the connecting groove 4 by external force. The cutting part 2 and the main body 1 are separated, and the cutting part 2 can be replaced at this time; when installing the cutting part 2, first align the reinforcing protrusion 5 with the positioning groove 6, then insert the connecting part 3 into the connecting groove 4, and then insert the insert block 9 from the slot 13, so that the insert block 9 pushes the linkage block 10 into the linkage groove 7 and squeezes the spring 8, and finally the fixing screw 15 is passed through the countersunk hole 17 and threadedly connected to the fixing groove 16.

[0041] Embodiment 2:

[0042] The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that Figure 7As shown, the outer wall of the main body 1 is provided with a plurality of reinforcing strips 23, and the plurality of reinforcing strips 23 are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the main body 1. By providing a plurality of reinforcing strips 23 on the outer wall of the main body 1, the structural strength of the main body 1 is improved and the service life is improved. Moreover, since the plurality of reinforcing strips 23 are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the main body 1, the spacing between the reinforcing strips 23 can be used as a reference scale for processing, which is convenient for determining the processing depth.

[0043] The specific embodiments described in this article are merely examples of the spirit of the utility model; technicians in the technical field to which the utility model belongs can make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or replace them in a similar manner, but will not deviate from the spirit of the utility model or exceed the scope defined by the attached claims.
