DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following description sets forth many specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar modifications without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0023] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being "directly on" another element, there is no intermediate element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only."

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this invention are intended only to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0025] The utility model discloses a new type of cutting tool. Figure 1 As shown, the new cutting tool includes a tool holder 10 and a tool head 20 connected to the tool holder 10. The tool head 20 is provided with a first cutting edge 21, a first chip groove 22, a second cutting edge 23, and a second chip groove 24 in sequence along the circumference. The first cutting edge 21 and the second cutting edge 23 are arranged in a double helical structure, and the first chip groove 22 and the second chip groove 24 are arranged in a double helical structure. The first cutting edge 21 includes a first blade 211 and a second blade 212 connected to the first blade 211. The thickness of the first blade 211 is greater than that of the second blade 212. The second blade 212 is arranged adjacent to the first chip groove 22, and the first blade 211 is arranged adjacent to the second chip groove 24. The second cutting edge 23 includes a third blade 231 and a fourth blade 232 connected to the third blade 231 . The thickness of the third blade 231 is greater than that of the fourth blade 232 . The fourth blade 232 is adjacent to the second chip groove 24 , and the third blade 231 is adjacent to the first chip groove 22 .

[0026] When the new cutting tool is performing a cutting operation, the first blade body can guide the chips generated by cutting to the second blade body, and guide the chips generated by cutting to the first chip groove through the second blade body. The third blade body can guide the chips generated by cutting to the fourth blade body, and guide the chips generated by cutting to the second chip groove through the fourth blade body. Through the mutual cooperation of the first cutting edge, the first chip groove, the second cutting edge and the second chip groove, the chips generated by cutting can be quickly discharged, thereby preventing damage to the product surface and extending the service life of the tool.

[0027] The end of the first cutting edge 21 is provided with a first cutting surface 213, a second cutting surface 214, and a third cutting surface 215, and the end of the first chip flute 22 is provided with a first chip flute 221. The first cutting surface 213, the second cutting surface 214, and the third cutting surface 215 are respectively connected to the first chip flute 221. When machining a part, chips are first generated at the end of the first cutting edge 21 and can be quickly transferred from the first cutting surface 213, the second cutting surface 214, and the third cutting surface 215 to the first chip flute 221, thereby entering the first chip flute 22 and being discharged from the first chip flute 22. Furthermore, any two of the first cutting surface 213, the second cutting surface 214, and the third cutting surface 215 form a certain angle, making the end of the first cutting edge 21 sharper.

[0028] Furthermore, a first connecting groove 216 is provided at the end of the first cutting edge 21. The first connecting groove 216 respectively connects the first cutting surface 213, the second cutting surface 214, the third cutting surface 215, and the end of the second chip removal groove 24. It is understandable that when a large amount of chips is generated at the end of the first cutting edge 21, simply quickly transferring the chips from the first cutting surface 213, the second cutting surface 214, and the third cutting surface 215 to the first chip removal surface 221 often cannot meet the chip removal speed requirement. By providing the first connecting groove 216, the chips can be quickly transferred from the first cutting surface 213, the second cutting surface 214, and the third cutting surface 215 to the first connecting groove 216 at the same time, and discharged through the first connecting groove 216 and the second chip removal groove 24, thereby further accelerating the chip removal speed.

[0029] The end of the second cutting edge 23 is provided with a fourth cutting surface 233, a fifth cutting surface 234, and a sixth cutting surface 235. The end of the second chip flute 24 is provided with a second chip flute 241. The fourth cutting surface 233, the fifth cutting surface 234, and the sixth cutting surface 235 are respectively connected to the second chip flute 241. When machining a part, chips are first generated at the end of the second cutting edge 23. They are then quickly transferred from the fourth cutting surface 233, the fifth cutting surface 234, and the sixth cutting surface 235 to the second chip flute 241, where they enter the second chip flute 24 and are discharged from the second chip flute 24. Furthermore, any two of the fourth cutting surface 233, the fifth cutting surface 234, and the sixth cutting surface 235 form a certain angle, making the end of the second cutting edge 23 sharper.

[0030] Furthermore, a second connecting groove 236 is provided at the end of the second cutting edge 23. The second connecting groove 236 respectively connects the fourth cutting surface 233, the fifth cutting surface 234, the sixth cutting surface 235, and the end of the first chip removal groove 22. As can be understood, when a large amount of chips is generated at the end of the second cutting edge 23, simply quickly transferring the chips from the fourth cutting surface 233, the fifth cutting surface 234, and the sixth cutting surface 235 to the second chip removal surface 241 often cannot meet the chip removal speed requirement. By providing the second connecting groove 236, the chips can be quickly transferred from the fourth cutting surface 233, the fifth cutting surface 234, and the sixth cutting surface 235 to the second connecting groove 236 at the same time, and discharged through the first chip removal groove 22 via the second connecting groove 236, thereby further accelerating the chip removal speed.

[0031] The helix angles of the first and second chip flutes 22, 24 can be adjusted based on actual conditions. Preferably, the helix angles of both the first and second chip flutes 22, 24 are 10°. The helix angle refers to the angle between the helix line and a line perpendicular to the helix axis in a double helix structure. Practical experience has shown that a helix angle of 10° for both the first and second chip flutes 22, 24 facilitates rapid chip removal.

[0032] The shape of the handle 10 can be customized based on actual needs. Preferably, the handle 10 is cylindrical. This cylindrical shape facilitates gripping and control of the handle 10. Furthermore, the handle 10 and the cutter head 20 are integrally machined, making the structure of the novel cutting tool more stable.

[0033] The present invention also discloses a CNC machine tool including the aforementioned novel cutting tool. Due to the inclusion of the aforementioned novel cutting tool, the CNC machine tool can quickly discharge cutting debris when cutting products, thereby preventing damage to the product surface and extending the tool life.

[0034] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0035] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementations of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present utility model patent shall be determined by the appended claims.
