[0002] With economic development and social progress, functional tool holders are becoming increasingly common in production. In the machining of various square holes, the inability to directly machine irregular holes on CNC machine tools leads to low production efficiency, and the need for sequential processing increases production cycle time. Currently, machining square holes and other irregular holes on products involves either milling the shape trajectory on a CNC machine, resulting in low efficiency and the inability to machine certain shapes. Some irregular holes, such as internal hexagonal holes, require machining on specialized equipment such as wire cutting machines; this increases the number of processes and extends the machining time. Furthermore, machining irregular holes individually requires multiple clamping operations on different machines, leading to bumps, scratches, and increased machining errors, ultimately reducing product quality. Therefore, this invention proposes a boring tool holder for irregular holes. Utility Model Content

[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a boring bar holder for irregular holes, including a main body 1 of the boring bar holder for irregular holes, an upper housing 27 connected to the lower end of the main body 1 of the boring bar holder for irregular holes, an directional ring 2 sleeved on the outside of the connection between the main body 1 of the boring bar holder for irregular holes and the upper housing 27, a lower housing 21 connected to the lower end of the upper housing 27, a clamping handle 23 connected to the lower end of the lower housing 21, an adjusting sleeve 25 connected to the upper inner side of the clamping handle 23, a track ring 17 sleeved on the outside of the upper end of the clamping handle 23, a bearing pressure plate 14 connected to the upper end of the clamping handle 23, a directional seat 12 installed on one side of the upper housing 27, a lower directional rod 11 connected to one side of the directional seat 12, and an upper directional rod 4 connected to one end of the lower directional rod 11.
[0023] More specifically, the upper guide rod 4 is secured by a positioning screw 3 and a small round nut 5, the lower guide rod 11 and the guide seat 12 are fitted with a guide plate 8 and fixed by an internal hexagonal head screw 6 (8*14*M66), the guide seat 12 is connected to one side of the upper housing 27 by an internal hexagonal head screw 10, and a cylindrical helical compression spring 9 is installed inside the lower guide rod 11, with the other end of the cylindrical helical compression spring 9 fixed to the guide seat 12.
[0024] More specifically, the bearing pressure plate 14 is fixed to the main body 1 of the shaped hole boring tool by a 12.09 grade internal hex countersunk screw 13, and a dial 15 is installed at the connection.
[0025] More specifically, the upper housing 27 and the lower housing 21 are fixed together by a second hexagon socket head cap screw 16, and a support ring 18 is connected to the track ring 17, and a self-lubricating thrust washer WC38SF19 is connected to the support ring 18.
[0026] More specifically, a spacer 20 is also installed inside the lower housing 21. The spacer 20 is located outside the clamping handle 23 and on one side of the self-lubricating thrust washer WC38SF19.
[0027] More specifically, a deep groove ball bearing 619 / 4-2RZ22 is also installed on the track ring 17, and the adjusting sleeve 25 and the clamping handle 23 are fixed by a 12.9 grade internal hexagonal flat-end set screw 24.
[0028] More specifically, the upper housing 27 is fixed to the lower guide rod 11 by a cylindrical pin 26, the bearing pressure plate 14 is fixed to the main body 1 of the shaped hole boring tool by a cylindrical pin 28, and a 71807 lock-out outer ring type angular contact ball bearing 7 is provided at the connection between the upper housing 27 and the main body 1 of the shaped hole boring tool, located inside the guide ring 2.
[0029] In use, the tool holder is mounted on the CNC spindle and the kinetic energy is transmitted to the bearing pressure plate 14 through a preset speed. The bearing pressure plate 14 and the dial 15 are connected by a cross slider, and the kinetic energy is transmitted to the dial 15.
[0030] The dial 15 has a rotating clamping handle 23; the dial 15 and the clamping handle 23 are driven by a keyway.
[0031] Three deep groove ball bearings 22, model 619 / 4-2RZ, are installed on the clamping handle 23. The rotation of the clamping handle 23 synchronously drives the three bearings to rotate. The three bearings are divided into upper, middle and lower layers, respectively corresponding to the track ring 17. The upper bearing moves along the upper track of the track ring 17; the middle bearing moves along the middle track of the track ring 17; and the lower bearing moves along the lower track of the track ring 17.

[0036] Cylindrical pin 26 (4×1226) is installed between the upper housing 27 and the track ring 17 to serve a positioning function.
[0037] The support ring 18 is installed between the track ring 17 and the self-lubricating thrust washer 19 (WC38SF). During the cutting process, due to the generation of a large radial force, the support ring 18 rotates synchronously in the preset gap between the two to stabilize the clamping handle 23.
[0038] The directional ring 2, in conjunction with the directional device, is used to pre-adjust the angle of the tool holder relative to the spindle when installing the tool holder.
[0039] The above describes the working principle of a method that uses three guide wheels rolling on a preset trajectory ring 17 to convert the trajectory into the required trajectory of the irregular hole tool tip.
[0040] It can directly drive the clamped tool to move along a predetermined trajectory, realizing the conversion of the circular motion of the rotating tool holder into the non-circular motion of the tool (such as hexagonal, elliptical, etc.) along a preset trajectory. This enables boring of various non-circular holes (such as hexagonal holes, elliptical holes, etc.) on CNC machine tools. It achieves the goal of consolidating processes, reducing workflow, and lowering costs in multi-tasking and multi-process machining.
