Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of thread milling cutters, in particular to a tapered milling cutter with a gradually changing helical angle. Background Art
[0002] Milling cutters are one of the most common machining tools available today. With increasingly fierce market competition and a growing variety of products, the demands placed on milling cutters are also increasing. Unlike machining grooves and stepped surfaces, traditional end mills with standard blades are not suitable for specialized machining applications such as taper machining and mold drafting. However, milling cutters with tapered blades are a more suitable solution to this problem.
[0003] An existing patent (publication number CN216858364U) discloses an end mill with a gradually varying spiral taper angle. The taper structure of the milling cutter head makes it suitable for special processing applications such as conical surface processing and mold draft processing. Its end face first clearance angle, end face second clearance angle, and axial wedge angle structures enhance the sharpness of the bottom edge, reduce friction between the end face and the workpiece, and lower the milling force during the processing process.
[0004] However, there are some problems in the use of existing milling cutters: 1. The cutter head of the current milling cutter will inevitably wear out after long-term use, but the cutter head and the cutter rod are an integrated structure. If the cutter head needs to be replaced, the cutter rod must also be discarded, resulting in a waste of resources; 2. The chip groove of the existing milling cutter head is spiral, so the debris will spread to the surroundings, which is not convenient for subsequent cleaning. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide a tapered milling cutter with a gradually changing helix angle, so as to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: comprising a base, a bottom mounting assembly arranged in the base, and a milling assembly arranged on the upper surface of the bottom mounting assembly;
[0007] The bottom mounting assembly includes a slot provided on the upper surface of the base, wherein a rod is detachably inserted into the slot, a first screw groove is provided on the front and rear side surfaces of the rod, and a second screw groove is provided on the front and rear side surfaces of the slot to cooperate with the first screw groove;
[0008] The milling assembly comprises a cutter body fixedly mounted on the surface of the insert rod, and a spiral blade is mounted on the upper end surface of the cutter body.
[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: the bottom mounting assembly further includes fixing bolts that are cooperatively installed inside the first screw groove and the second screw groove.
[0010] As a further solution of the present invention: the milling assembly also includes chip grooves evenly distributed on the surface of the cutter body.
[0011] As a further solution of the present invention: the shape and size of the insertion rod are the same as the shape and size of the slot, and both are cylindrical in shape.
[0012] As a further solution of the present invention: the front and rear side surfaces of the base are provided with planar clamping grooves for clamping the tool clamping seat.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0014] When the milling cutter needs to be replaced, the fixing bolt is twisted to engage and remove it from the first screw grooves opened on the front and rear surfaces of the insertion rod and the second screw grooves opened on the front and rear sides of the slot. The cutter body is pulled upward to drive the insertion rod fixedly connected at the lower end to be pulled out from the slot. The cutter body can be disassembled separately, and the insertion rod at the lower end of the replacement cutter body is inserted into the slot so that the first screw groove is aligned with the second screw groove. The fixing bolt is engaged and installed into the aligned first screw groove and second screw groove, and the separate replacement and fixation of the milling cutter body can be completed.
[0015] The utility model discloses that when using the milling cutter, the base is clamped by the clamping seat, which drives the rotation so that the spiral blade can more effectively and layeredly process the workpiece to be milled. At the same time, the high-speed air flow generated by the milling debris is driven to be quickly discharged outward through multiple sets of chip grooves, avoiding residue on the workpiece surface to cause obstruction, thereby improving the practicality of the milling cutter.
