[0037] An inner taper hole is provided at the front of the main taper shank 1. Multiple opening grooves 11 are provided at the opening of the inner taper hole, and an external thread 12 is provided on the outer cylindrical surface of the inner taper part;

[0038] The front end of the floating tool holder 2 is used to install a reamer 6, and an internal thread 21 is provided at the tail of the floating tool holder 2;

[0039] The main taper shank 1 and the floating tool holder 2 are floatingly connected through the external thread 12 and the internal thread 21 with a thread fit clearance, and the thread fit clearance is greater than 0;

[0040] The conical body 3 is installed in the inner taper hole of the main taper shank 1, and the bottom surface of the conical body 3 is matched with the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the floating tool holder 2;

[0041] The limiting device is sleeved on the outer ring of the main taper shank 1 and is used for axially limiting the floating tool holder 2.

[0042] The conical body 3 is placed in and matched with the inner taper hole of the main taper shank 1. The floating tool holder 2 and the main taper shank 1 are threadedly connected, and the floating tool holder 2 squeezes the conical body 3 during the process of screwing in the thread. The conical body 3 squeezes the inner taper hole of the main taper shank 1 to cause radial expansion deformation of the thread of the main taper shank 1, so that the floating adjustment function of the reamer 6 can be realized by adjusting the thread fit clearance between the main taper shank 1 and the floating tool holder 2.

[0043] In another specific embodiment, the limiting device includes a limiting ring 4 and a limiting screw 5; the limiting ring 4 can slide on the outer ring of the main taper shank 1 and is fastened by the limiting screw 5. That is to say, the limiting ring 4 is fixedly installed on the outer ring of the main taper shank 1 through the limiting screw 5 and is used for axially limiting the floating tool holder 2.

[0044] In another specific embodiment, a square convex part for easy screwing is provided at the front of the floating tool holder 2.

[0045] In another specific embodiment, the square convex part is an external hexagonal boss 22.

[0046] In another specific embodiment, the tail of the main taper shank 1 is a Morse taper shank.

[0047] In another specific embodiment, the thread fit clearance is 0.2 mm.

[0048] In another specific embodiment, the opening grooves 11 are circumferentially distributed uniformly along the opening of the inner tapered hole.

[0049] In another specific embodiment, the cone body 3 is a frustum structure.

[0050] In another specific embodiment, a tool mounting hole is provided at the front part of the floating tool holder 2.

[0051] Embodiment 2:

[0052] On the basis of Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a floating reamer assembly for machining thin-walled tube reaming, including a reamer 6 and a floating reamer handle. The floating reamer handle adopts the structure described in Embodiment 1. The tail of the reamer 6 is inserted into the floating tool holder 2 of the floating reamer handle and fastened by a radially arranged locking screw 7.

[0053] In another specific embodiment, a tool mounting hole is provided at the front part of the floating tool holder 2, and the locking screw 7 is installed in the tool mounting hole.

[0054] Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1, so they will not be described in detail.

[0055] Embodiment 3:

[0056] On the basis of Embodiment 2, this embodiment provides a specific structure of a floating reamer assembly.

[0057] The floating reamer assembly includes a main taper shank 1, a floating tool holder 2, a cone body 3, a limit ring 4, a limit screw 5, a reamer 6, and a locking screw 7.

[0058] The Morse taper shank at the tail of the main taper shank 1 is used to connect with the lathe tailstock. The external thread 12 on the outer cylindrical surface at the front part of the main taper shank 1 is in threaded fit with the internal thread 21 of the floating tool holder 2, and the threaded fit clearance is 0.2. The inner cavity of the main taper shank 1 is an inner tapered hole, and there are four evenly distributed opening grooves 11 at the mouth of the main taper shank 1. This structure enables the external thread 12 of the main taper shank 1 to be easily deformed radially. The cone body 3 is inserted into the inner tapered hole of the main taper shank 1 for cooperation, and the other end of the cone body 3 is in contact with the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the floating tool holder 2. The front part of the floating tool holder 2 is inserted into the reamer 6 and fixed by a locking screw 7. There is an external hexagonal boss 22 at the front part of the floating tool holder 2 for turning and rotating the floating tool holder 2. The limit ring 4 is in sliding fit with the outer cylindrical surface of the main taper shank 1. The limit ring 4 abuts against the end face at the tail of the floating tool holder 2 and is locked by a limit screw 5 to achieve the limit function.

[0059] When performing floating reaming on thin-walled tubes, insert the reamer 6 into the floating tool holder 2 and fix it with the locking screw 7. Use a wrench to rotate the external hexagonal boss 22 at the front of the floating tool holder 2, so that the internal thread 21 of the floating tool holder 2 is screwed into the external thread 12 of the main taper shank 1. During the process of the floating tool holder 2 screwing into the main taper shank 1, the tapered body 3 is extruded to displace along the axis, and the tapered body 3 displaces along the axis to extrude the internal tapered hole of the main taper shank 1. Since there is an opening groove 11 at the mouth of the inner cavity of the main taper shank 1, the external thread 12 of the main taper shank 1 is radially deformed and expanded due to the extrusion of the tapered body 3 on the inner cavity of the main taper shank 1. The deformation and expansion of the external thread 12 of the main taper shank 1 are used to adjust the thread fit clearance between the main taper shank 1 and the floating tool holder 2. After adjusting the clearance, press the limit ring 4 against the end face at the tail of the floating tool holder 2 and lock the limit with the limit screw 5.

[0060] In this embodiment, by adjusting the thread fit clearance between the main taper shank 1 and the floating tool holder 2, the adjustment function of the floating range of the floating reamer assembly can be realized, so as to realize the floating reaming processing of thin-walled tubes.

[0061] Other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above-mentioned Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, so they will not be described in detail.

[0062] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not impose any form of limitation on the present invention. Any simple modification and equivalent change made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
