[0027] 1) tool body
[0028] The tool body is provided with an inner hexagonal hole with a diameter of 20mm and a bottom spacing of 11mm, which facilitates installation and meets the transmission of rotary force. The cutting edges are uniformly distributed on the top of the tool body.
[0029] 2) cutting edge
[0030] The cutting edge has a front angle 21, a back angle 22, a side angle 23 and a cutting tip 24. Figure 3 The front angle represents the inclination of the rake face, and is the angle between the rake face and the surface of the material being cut. The larger the front angle, the sharper the cutting edge, but the strength of the cutting edge will decrease. The back angle is the angle between the relief face and the surface of the material being cut, and represents the degree of friction of the relief face during cutting. The larger the back angle, the less the friction, the better the surface quality of the processed surface, and the sharper the cutting edge. The side angle is the angle between the side of the cutting edge and the feed direction of the tool bit, and represents the angle of inclination of the cutting edge during cutting. The smaller the side angle, the smaller the cutting force, and the higher the precision of the inclined cutting.
[0031] According to the characteristics of the small-density metal material selected for the outer shell of the extravehicular equipment, a large angle is selected in the design of the front angle of the cutting edge, which can reduce the stress and heat stress during the extrusion of the metal material by the inclined cutting edge, effectively improving the smoothness of the cutting surface. A large angle is selected in the design of the back angle of the cutting edge to improve the surface quality of the processed surface. A small angle is selected in the design of the side angle of the cutting edge to reduce the cutting force and improve the processing precision.
[0032] According to the movement mode of the tool bit, 12 cutting edges are uniformly distributed on the circumference of the tool body. One cutting edge is provided every 30 DEG Figure 2), according to the low-speed rotation characteristics of the tool shaft speed, the structure of the blade is innovatively designed (the side angle of the blade is 24.9°-25.1°, the rake angle of the blade is set to 59.9°-60.1°, the relief angle of the blade is set to 28.4°-28.6°, and the metal sharp angle in the range of 0.5mm-1mm of the tip of the blade is set), the sharpness of the blade face is ensured through the rake angle design of the movement direction of the blade, and the friction of the blade is reduced through the relief angle design of the blade; according to the characteristics that the tool head is used by astronauts in a vacuum environment, through the above parameter design, the tool head is ensured to move at a low speed, the tool tip still has processing on the cutting object under the condition of small cutting force, and has the characteristics of high-precision processing.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the rake angle of the blade is set to 60° Figure 4 ), the relief angle of the blade is set to 28.5° Figure 5 ) to form a cutting angle of 31.5°, the strength of the blade is increased under the premise of ensuring the sharpness of the rake face and the small friction of the relief face, the side angle of the blade is set to 25° Figure 6 ) to ensure the sharpness of the tip of the blade and the strength of the tip.
[0034] To remind astronauts that this tool head is dangerous goods and is prohibited to touch, red vacuum pigment is applied on the outside of the tool head, so that astronauts can clearly see the tool head area in the space suit outside the cabin.
[0035] (3) Work flow
[0036] The tool shaft rotates at a rotation speed of 50° / s, the blade is first contacted with the cutting surface by the tip under the action of constant pressure, and then the object is cut by the rake face.
[0037] During the cutting process of the blade, the blade is subjected to F0 cutting resistance, f1 tool shaft rotation resistance and f2 upward component of the blade, wherein when f2=F constant, the cutting resistance and the blade pressure are balanced, and the blade does not feed. With the cutting process of the blade, when f2 decreases, the blade further moves downward under the action of F constant, until f2 increases again to realize f2=F constant.
[0038] Finally, the blade forms a process of gradually autonomous feeding under the action of constant pressure, and finally realizes the cutting of the object.
