Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a thread milling cutter, in particular to a thread milling cutter with a chip breaking function, belonging to the technical field of milling cutters. Background Art

[0002] Traditional thread machining methods primarily involve turning with a thread turning tool or manual tapping and threading with taps and dies. Advances in CNC machining technology, particularly the advent of three-axis CNC machining systems, have made CNC milling a more advanced thread machining method possible. Compared to traditional thread machining methods, thread milling offers significant advantages in precision and efficiency, and is not restricted by thread structure or direction of rotation.

[0003] In the prior art, a thread milling cutter disclosed in announcement number CN209986367U includes a milling cutter shank, a milling cutter rod, a cutting edge, and a chip groove. A milling cutter rod is installed below the milling cutter shank, and a cutting edge is uniformly engraved on the outer surface below the milling cutter rod. A chip groove is provided on one side of the cutting edge. A first cooling groove is provided at the lower end of the milling cutter shank, a coolant inlet is provided on one side above the first cooling groove, and cooling sub-grooves are uniformly provided below the first cooling groove. Coolant flows into the first cooling groove through the coolant inlet, and then flows from the first cooling groove into the cooling sub-grooves and the second cooling groove, so that the coolant can quickly cool the cutting edge, ensuring that the cutting edge will not be severely damaged due to overheating.

[0004] When the above technical solution is in use, the cutting edge of the milling cutter is cooled by allowing the coolant to enter the first cooling groove from the cooling inlet, and then flowing the coolant to the second cooling groove through the first cooling groove. However, during use, the first cooling liquid groove and the second cooling liquid groove are directly connected, and the coolant needs to be continuously input into the first cooling groove from the coolant inlet during use, and then flow into the second cooling groove from the first cooling groove. However, since the coolant port is directly opened on the milling cutter handle, when the milling cutter handle drives the milling cutter to rotate, it drives the coolant port to rotate together, which makes it difficult to input the coolant into the first cooling groove and the second cooling groove. Moreover, after the coolant is input into the cooling groove, due to the connection structure between the first cooling groove and the second cooling groove, there is no component between the two to control the outflow of the coolant. Therefore, after the milling cutter is used, the coolant input into the cooling groove will still flow out uncontrolled, resulting in the problem of coolant waste during the cooling process. In view of this, a thread milling cutter with a chip breaking function is provided to overcome the above defects. Utility Model Content
