[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present application provides a cutting tool 100 for machining the outer contour of a workpiece 200, wherein the machined workpiece 200 includes an R-corner contour 220, a C-shaped contour 210 connected to the R-corner contour 220, a top surface 230 provided on the side of the R-corner contour 220 away from the C-shaped contour 210, and a bottom surface 240 provided on the side of the C-shaped contour 210 away from the R-corner contour 220. Specifically, the cutting tool 100 includes a tool shank 10 and a cutting portion 20.
[0044] The cutting portion 20 is provided at one end of the tool shank 10. The tool shank 10 and the cutting portion 20 are integrally formed. In other application scenarios, the cutting tool 100 can also be a combined tool of a tool disc and a blade. In this case, the cutting edge is provided on the blade. Whether it is an integral tool or a combined tool, it should be regarded as within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0045] A part of the outer peripheral wall of the cutting portion 20 is recessed to form a first cutting edge 21 for machining the outer contour of the workpiece 200. At the end of the cutting portion 20 away from the tool shank 10, a second cutting edge 22 and a third cutting edge 23 are provided at intervals. Both the second cutting edge 22 and the third cutting edge 23 are located on the side of the first cutting edge 21 away from the tool shank 10. The second cutting edge 22 is used for machining the chamfer of the workpiece 200, and the third cutting edge 23 is used for cutting the surface of the workpiece 200 to reduce the thickness of the workpiece 200.
[0046] Specifically, the first cutting edge 21 machines the outer contour of the workpiece 200 to obtain the C-shaped contour 210, the second cutting edge 22 machines the chamfer of the workpiece 200 to obtain the R-corner contour 220, and the third cutting edge 23 cuts the top surface 230 of the workpiece 200 to reduce the thickness of the workpiece 200.
[0047] Please refer to Figure 3 , a fourth cutting edge 24 is provided at the end of the cutting portion 20 close to the tool shank 10. The fourth cutting edge 24 is located on the side of the first cutting edge 21 close to the tool shank 10 and is used for cutting the surface of the workpiece 200 to reduce the thickness of the workpiece 200. Specifically, the fourth cutting edge 24 cuts the bottom surface 240 of the workpiece 200 to reduce the thickness of the workpiece 200. In this way, the thickness of the machined workpiece 200 can be ensured to be within the required range.
[0048] It can be understood that the structures of the first cutting edge 21, the second cutting edge 22, the third cutting edge 23 and the fourth cutting edge 24 are only schematic in the figure, and their specific structures are not limited. As long as they can obtain the C-shaped contour 210, the R-shaped corner contour 220 and reduce the thickness of the workpiece 200, for example, the first cutting edge 21 may include a plurality of spiral cutting edges, and each cutting edge can machine the C-shaped contour 210.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 4 , the first cutting edge 21 includes two oppositely arranged first cutting surfaces 211 and a second cutting surface 212. The second cutting surface 212 is disposed between the two first cutting surfaces 211. The first cutting edge 21 and the second cutting edge 22 are transitionally connected by an arc surface 213. By cooperating the two first cutting surfaces 211 and a second cutting surface 212, the required C-shaped contour 210 can be machined on the workpiece 200.
[0050] The projected shape of the second cutting edge 22 on a plane parallel to the axis O of the cutting tool 100 is arc-shaped. In this way, the R-shaped corner contour 220 can be machined on the workpiece 200. It can be understood that in some embodiments, the projected shape of the second cutting edge 22 on a plane parallel to the axis O of the cutting tool 100 can be conical. In this way, an inclined surface, such as a 45-degree inclined surface, can be machined on the workpiece 200.
[0051] The end of the third cutting edge 23 away from the tool shank 10 is flush with the end of the second cutting edge 22 away from the tool shank 10. In this way, the space can be optimized, and it helps to achieve smoother and more precise cutting, and improve the roughness of the machined surface.
[0052] The second cutting edge 22 and the third cutting edge 23 are spaced apart in the direction of the axis O of the cutting tool 100. In this way, the mutual interference between the second cutting edge 22 and the third cutting edge 23 can be reduced, and by setting an appropriate spacing value, the distance between the bottom surface 240 and the top surface 230 of the machined workpiece 200 can be ensured.
[0053] The minimum distance from the second cutting edge 22 to the axis O of the cutting tool 100 and the minimum distance from the third cutting edge 23 to the axis O of the cutting tool 100 are both greater than the radius of the tool shank 10. That is to say, the distance from the second cutting surface 212 to the axis O of the cutting tool 100 and the minimum distance from the third cutting edge 23 to the axis O of the cutting tool 100 are both greater than the radius of the tool shank 10. In this way, the overall rigidity of the cutting tool 100 can be enhanced, the vibration and deformation during cutting can be reduced, it helps to achieve a more stable cutting effect, reduce the cutting force, and thus reduce the machining error of the workpiece 200.
[0054] The value range of the maximum diameter D1 of the cutting part 20 is 19 mm - 23 mm. This diameter range covers a variety of common cutting requirements, enabling the cutting tool 100 to be applicable to a variety of different machining scenarios and workpiece 200 sizes, improving the versatility of the cutting tool 100; and within this diameter range, a relatively high material removal rate can be achieved while ensuring the durability and lifespan of the cutting tool 100. Preferably, the value of the maximum diameter D1 of the cutting part 20 is 21 mm.
[0055] The value range of the length L of the cutting part 20 along the axis O direction of the cutting tool 100 is 19 mm - 23 mm. An appropriate cutting length helps to improve the cutting speed and material removal rate, thereby enhancing the machining efficiency; and it can ensure uniform distribution of the cutting force, reduce the vibration and deformation of the workpiece 200, and improve the accuracy and surface finish of the machined surface. Preferably, the value of the length L of the cutting part 20 along the axis O direction of the cutting tool 100 is 21 mm.
[0056] The value range of the diameter D2 of the tool shank 10 is 14 mm - 18 mm. In this way, the versatility of the tool shank 10 is increased, and it can be adapted to more types of cutting tools 100 and machine tools, which helps to improve the rigidity and stability of the cutting tool 100, thereby improving the cutting performance and machining quality. Preferably, the value of the diameter D2 of the tool shank 10 is 16 mm.
[0057] The implementation process of the cutting tool 100 in the embodiment of the present application is as follows:
[0058] First, make the machine tool clamp the tool shank 10 of the cutting tool 100, and then, please refer to Figure 5 , use the second cutting edge 22 of the cutting tool 100 to machine the chamfer of the workpiece 200 to obtain the R - angle profile 220. Next, please refer to Figure 6 , use the two first cutting surfaces 211 and one second cutting surface 212 of the first cutting edge 21 of the cutting tool 100 to machine the outer contour of the workpiece 200 to obtain the C - shaped profile 210. After that, please refer to Figure 7 , use the third cutting edge 23 of the cutting tool 100 to cut the top surface 230 of the workpiece 200 to reduce the thickness of the workpiece 200. Finally, please refer to Figure 8 , use the fourth cutting edge 24 of the cutting tool 100 to cut the bottom surface 240 of the workpiece 200 to reduce the thickness of the workpiece 200, so as to ensure the thickness of the machined workpiece 200 and obtain the machined workpiece 200.
[0059] In the cutting tool 100 of the present application, the workpiece 200 is machined by integrating the first cutting edge 21 for machining the outer contour of the workpiece 200, the second cutting edge 22 for machining the chamfer of the workpiece 200, and the third cutting edge 23 for reducing the thickness of the workpiece 200 on a single tool. During machining, there is no need to switch tools, reducing the in-machine setup frequency, having a relatively high cutting efficiency, and avoiding deviations at the tool-changing positions when switching tools. The relative positions between the contours on the workpiece 200 can be guaranteed, that is, the positional accuracy between various features can be effectively guaranteed, and the dimensional stability of the outer contour of the workpiece 200 after machining is relatively high.
[0060] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
