The improved tool holder and drill bit structure can complete multiple chamfering, planing, and drilling processes in one operation, thereby improving processing efficiency.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, a tool structure for drilling holes at both ends of a car steering gear rack is designed, including a tool holder, characterized in that: a drill bit is horizontally embedded in the middle of the tool holder, the bottom of the drill bit abuts against the bottom of the tool holder and is connected to a stop bolt; two protrusions are respectively provided on both sides of the head of the tool holder, and cutting blades are respectively connected to the sides of the two protrusions; the side of the drill bit abuts against a locking bolt.
[0005] The stop bolt passes through the bottom of the tool holder and connects to the bottom of the drill bit.
[0006] One end of the locking bolt is located on the side of the tool holder, and the other end of the locking bolt passes through the side of the tool holder and abuts against the side of the drill bit.
[0007] The drill bit includes a drill bit rod and a drill bit head. The drill bit rod is a cylindrical structure with a flat surface on its side. The other end of the locking bolt abuts against the flat surface of the drill bit. The drill bit head is a helical chamfered step structure with blade clearance grooves at the second and third chamfered steps.
[0008] The blade has a rectangular modular structure and is connected to the head of the handle by a blade bolt.

[0015] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the processed product of this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0017] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a drill bit 3 is horizontally embedded in the middle of the handle 6. The bottom of the drill bit 3 abuts against the bottom of the handle 6 and is connected to the stop bolt 1. Two protrusions are provided on both sides of the head of the handle 6, and the sides of the two protrusions are respectively connected to the blades 4. The side of the drill bit 3 abuts against the locking bolt 2.
[0018] The stop bolt 1 passes through the bottom of the tool holder 6 and is connected to the bottom of the drill bit 3.
[0019] One end of the locking bolt 2 is located on the side of the tool holder 6, and the other end of the locking bolt 2 passes through the side of the tool holder 6 and abuts against the side of the drill bit 3.
[0020] The drill bit 3 includes a drill bit rod and a drill bit head. The drill bit rod is a cylindrical structure with a flat surface 7 on its side. The other end of the locking bolt 2 abuts against the flat surface 7 of the drill bit 3. The drill bit head is a spiral chamfered step structure with blade clearance grooves 8 at the second and third chamfered steps.
[0021] The blade 4 has a rectangular module structure and is connected to the head of the handle 6 via the blade bolt 5.
[0022] The handle 6 includes a handle shank and a handle head. The handle shank is a stepped cylindrical structure with a through hole for the stop bolt 1 at the bottom. The handle head is a cylindrical structure with a through hole for the locking bolt 2 at the lower side. The upper part of the handle head is a U-shaped columnar structure with a through hole for the drill bit 3 in the middle. The two protrusions at the ends of the handle head are connected to the blade 4.
[0023] The protrusion at the head of the handle is a right-angled fan-shaped columnar structure. The two blades 4 are located on the horizontal plane of the two protrusions respectively, and the cutting edge of the blades 4 protrudes from the head of the protrusion.
[0024] The cutting edge of the blade 4 is positioned towards the drill bit 3.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the drill bit 3 of this utility model is fixed by a side fixing method. A top bolt 1 is provided at the bottom to fix the drill bit 3, and a locking bolt 2 is provided on the side to fix the drill bit 3. This can simplify the structure of the tool holder 6 and reduce the production cost of the tool holder 6.
[0026] The stop bolt 1 is located at the bottom of the drill bit 3 and holds the drill bit 3 in place. The locking bolt 2 is located on the side of the tool holder 6 and holds the side of the drill bit 3 after being tightened. The cutting tool 4 is fixed to the tool holder 6 by the cutting tool bolt 5.
[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the shank side of the drill bit 3 has a flat surface 7, which facilitates the locking bolt 2 to lock the drill bit 3. The second and third chamfered steps of the drill bit 3 are designed with cutting tool clearance grooves 8.
[0028] Insert the drill bit 3 into the tool holder 6, tighten the locking bolt 2 against the plane 7 of the drill bit 3 and lock it, and press the stop bolt 1 against the bottom of the drill bit 3. The cutting blade 4 is installed on the tool holder 6 through the cutting blade clearance groove 8.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, blade 4 is responsible for machining. Figure 3 The outer chamfer at point d and the flat surface at point e are machined; drill bit 3 is responsible for machining. Figure 3 Drill a hole at point a, chamfer the first corner at point b, and chamfer the second corner at point c.
[0030] By adopting the structure of this utility model, five parts, including drilling, first chamfering, second chamfering, turning the flat surface, and outer chamfering, can be processed in one go, greatly improving processing efficiency.
