[0031] The embodiment of the present application discloses an indexable reamer structure.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 A removable reamer structure includes a base 1 connected to a driving end, the base 1 is cylindrical, and a cutting unit 2 is provided on the circumferential surface of the base 1 away from the driving source. The cutting units 2 are distributed in a circular array with the axis of the base 1 as the center line. In this embodiment, six cutting units 2 are provided.

[0033] Since the structures and connection methods of the six cutting units 2 are the same, one of the cutting units 2 is taken as an example for explanation.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cutting unit 2 includes a limited space 21 set on the base 1, and the base 1 is located in the limited space 21 and is connected to a blade 3 by a bolt thread, so that the blade 3 is fixed in the limited space 21 of the base 1. This design makes it easy to replace or adjust the blade 3; the blade 3 is arranged in a rectangular block shape, and a first abutment surface 31 and a second abutment surface 32 are symmetrically arranged on the blade 3, that is, two symmetrical first abutment surfaces 31 and two symmetrical second abutment surfaces 32 are respectively the four side surfaces of the blade 3, and the two symmetrical end surfaces on the blade 3 are set as third abutment surfaces 33.

[0035] Reference Figure 2The base 1 is located in the limiting space 21 and is provided with a circumferential abutment surface 211 in the tangent direction of its rotation direction. The base 1 is located in the limiting space 21 and is provided with a lateral abutment surface 212. The lateral abutment surface 212 is arranged perpendicular to the circumferential abutment surface 211. The circumferential abutment surface 211 forms an abutment fit with the first abutment surface 31, and the lateral abutment surface 212 forms an abutment fit with the second abutment surface 32, thereby ensuring the precise positioning of the blade 3 on the base 1. This design helps to improve machining accuracy and reduce vibration and deviation during machining.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 A blade 34 is provided at the connection between the first abutting surface 31 and the second abutting surface 32, that is, four long blades 34 are formed. The cutting edge of the blade 34 on the blade plate 3 away from the circumferential abutting surface 211 and the lateral abutting surface 212 is tangential to the rotation direction of the base 1. When the blade 34 is worn or damaged, there is no need to replace the entire reamer. It is only necessary to flip the blade plate 3 to expose another new blade 34 between the first abutting surface 31 and the second abutting surface 32. The blade plate 3 can use the new blade 34 for processing. This design improves the flexibility and service life of the blade plate 3 and reduces the cost of use.

The third avoidance groove 216 is arranged to provide a certain avoidance space for the corners of the knife plate 3 located in the third avoidance groove 216, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the knife plate 3 due to stress concentration during processing, improving the overall strength and stability of the knife plate 3, and at the same time making it easier for the operator to approach and operate related components when replacing or maintaining the knife plate 3, thereby reducing the difficulty and cost of maintenance.

[0040] Reference Figure 2 A second chamfer 35 is provided between the first abutting surface 31 and the third abutting surface 33. During the machining process, the blade 3 will be subjected to a reaction force from the workpiece. The setting of the second chamfer 35 can reduce stress concentration, thereby enhancing the strength of the blade 3.

The chip groove 22 is opened from the end of the base 1 away from the driving source toward the end of the driving source, and the depth of the chip groove 22 gradually decreases in the direction toward the driving source. The chip groove 22 is arranged near the side of the limit space 21, which effectively guides the chips from the cutting area into the chip groove 22 for discharge, thereby reducing the situation of the tool being blocked due to chips blocking the blade 34 during processing.

[0042] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3The cutting unit 2 is located in the chip groove 22 and has a cooling hole 221. The cooling hole 221 is arranged toward the blade 3.

Any flow channel 11 includes a branch port 111, a first blocking member 112 and a second blocking member 113. Any flow channel 11 is located at the branch port 111 and branches into a first flow channel 114 and a second flow channel 115. Any first flow channel 114 is arranged along the radial direction of the base 1 and is open. The first blocking member 112 is arranged in the first flow channel 1 14 is away from one end of the liquid inlet 12 and seals the opening of the first flow channel 114, any second flow channel 115 is arranged along the axial direction of the substrate 1 and is open, the second blocking member 113 is arranged at one end of the second flow channel 115 away from the liquid inlet 12 and seals the opening of the second flow channel 115, through the arrangement of the first flow channel 114 and the second flow channel 115, it is convenient for the staff to process the flow channel 11 as a whole, and through the arrangement of the first blocking member 112 and the second blocking member 113, the coolant injected from the liquid inlet 12 will not overflow from the opening at the end of the first flow channel 114 or the opening at the end of the second flow channel 115.

[0043] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 Any second flow channel 115 is connected to the corresponding cooling hole 221, and the coolant in the flow channel 11 is sprayed out from the cooling hole 221 to provide a cooling effect for the blade 34 and the workpiece during the processing, thereby extending the service life of the blade 34 and improving the processing quality. At the same time, the chips generated by the workpiece during the processing can be quickly and smoothly discharged along the chip groove 22 under the flushing of the coolant, effectively avoiding the accumulation of chips in the cutting area, maintaining the cleanliness of the cutting area and the sharpness of the blade 3.

[0044] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: during actual operation, first select a suitable blade 34 on the blade 3 and expose it to the outside of the limited space 21, and at the same time, make the working surface of the blade 3 abut the circumferential abutment surface 211, the lateral abutment surface 212 and the auxiliary abutment surface 213 in the limited space 21 respectively, and then thread the blade 3 into the limited space 21 through bolts. After ensuring that all components are installed correctly and tightened reliably, the drive source can be started to drive the base 1 to rotate at high speed, thereby driving the blade 34 on the blade 3 to cut the workpiece. At the same time, the coolant in the flow channel 11 is sprayed out from the cooling hole 221, providing a cooling effect for the blade 34 and the workpiece during the processing, thereby reducing the temperature of the blade 34 and the workpiece.

[0045] When the blade 34 is worn or damaged after working for a period of time, first unscrew the bolts to remove the blade 3, and then turn the blade 3 over to expose the new blade 34 on the other edge for use, and then repeat the above operation process to process the work.

[0046] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application.
