Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal cutting tool technology, specifically to a double-edged twist drill. Background Technology
[0002] Drilling is a semi-enclosed machining process. Due to the poor working conditions, vibrations are easily generated during the process, leading to deviations in hole straightness, roundness, and surface roughness, resulting in scrapped parts. To solve this problem, in optimizing the structure of twist drills, existing technology typically involves designing an additional pair of "parallel" cutting edges on the outer circumference of the cutting edge of a standard single-flute twist drill. This enhances the guiding effect of the cutting edges on the twist drill's machining process. This structural design technology has proven to be an effective measure that significantly improves hole dimensional accuracy and surface quality.
[0003] However, when machining cast iron or mold steel with a certain hardness, powdery or fine "C-shaped" chips are generated. These small chips are very likely to enter the narrow space between the two cutting bands on the same cutting edge of the twist drill and the hole wall along the chisel edge and the flank face. If the cutting parameters or the depth of the hole being machined are large, the chips crowded between the cutting edge and the hole wall will have difficulty being smoothly discharged from the hole opening with the flow of coolant. Moreover, they will form extrusion marks and scratches on the hole wall surface, reducing the surface quality of the hole. In severe cases, the large torque generated by the chip congestion may even cause the twist drill to break, resulting in the scrap of the part. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a double-edged twist drill that avoids chip damage to the hole wall surface and improves the hole processing quality.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A double-edged twist drill includes a cutting section and a shank. The cutting section includes a drill tip and at least two cutting edges, with a helical chip removal groove formed between adjacent cutting edges. The drill tip has a main cutting edge and a back edge. The cutting edges have a first cutting edge, a second cutting edge, and an arc-shaped cutting edge. The first and second cutting edges both extend helically around the central axis of the cutting section. The first cutting edge intersects with the helical chip removal groove to form a secondary cutting edge, which is connected to the main cutting edge. The second cutting edge is arranged behind the first cutting edge along the cutting direction. The arc-shaped cutting edge intersects with the back edge and connects the first and second cutting edges. A concave space is formed between the first, second, and arc-shaped cutting edges and the shank. The arc-shaped cutting edge has at least one oil guide groove arranged axially along the cutting section.
[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:
[0008] The cutting diameter of the cutting part is set as D, and the maximum width of the arc-shaped cutting band is set as w, satisfying D / 40≤w≤D / 20.
[0009] The width of the oil guide groove is set to L2, which satisfies 0.2≤L2≤0.6.
[0010] The depth of the oil guide groove is set to L3, satisfying 0.2 < L3 ≤ 0.6.
[0011] The first and second cutting edges have the same helix angle, denoted as β, satisfying: 10°≤β≤50°.
[0012] On a cross section perpendicular to the cutting part, the line connecting the first cutting edge and the central axis of the cutting part is designated as S1, the line connecting the second cutting edge and the central axis of the cutting part is designated as S2, and the included angle between S1 and S2 is designated as α, satisfying 20°≤α≤80°.
[0013] The first and second cutting edges have equal radial widths, denoted as L4, satisfying D / 25≤L4≤D / 15.
[0014] The minimum distance between the oil guide groove and the secondary cutting edge is set to L5, which satisfies L5=L4+0.1.
[0015] The oil guide groove is provided in multiple ways, and the distance between adjacent oil guide grooves is set to L6, which satisfies 0.2≤L6≤0.4.
[0016] The oil guide grooves are evenly distributed along the extension direction of the arc-shaped blade.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:
[0018] This invention relates to a double-edged twist drill with an arc-shaped cutting edge that intersects with the back edge and connects the first and second cutting edges. During machining, the arc-shaped cutting edge prevents chips from entering the concave space, thus avoiding chip damage to the hole wall surface and the formation of extrusion marks and scratches. The size of the oil guide groove is designed to prevent chips from passing through while allowing cutting fluid to pass through. This allows the cutting fluid to flow into the concave space while preventing chips from entering. The cutting fluid enters the concave space through the oil guide groove and, under pressure from the hole wall, generates a flexible guiding effect, thereby enhancing guidance and improving the quality of hole machining.

[0035] Example 1:
[0036] Figures 1 to 5 This invention illustrates an embodiment of a double-edged twist drill. The double-edged twist drill of this embodiment includes a cutting section 2 and a shank 1. The cutting section 2 includes a drill tip 3 and at least two cutting edges 5. A spiral chip removal groove 4 is formed between adjacent cutting edges 5. The drill tip 3 is provided with a main cutting edge 31 and a back edge 33. The cutting edges 5 are provided with a first cutting edge 61, a second cutting edge 62, and an arc-shaped cutting edge 8. Both the first cutting edge 61 and the second cutting edge 62 extend spirally around the central axis of the cutting section 2. The first cutting edge 61 intersects with the spiral chip removal groove 4 to form a secondary cutting edge 32, which is connected to the main cutting edge 31. The second cutting edge 62 is arranged along the cutting direction behind the first cutting edge 61. The arc-shaped cutting edge 8 intersects with the back edge 33 and connects the first cutting edge 61 and the second cutting edge 62. A concave space 6 is formed between the first cutting edge 61, the second cutting edge 62, the arc-shaped cutting edge 8, and the shank 1. The arc-shaped cutting edge 8 is provided with at least one oil guide groove 9 arranged axially along the cutting section 2.
[0037] This double-edged twist drill features an arc-shaped cutting edge 8 that intersects with the back edge 33 and connects the first cutting edge 61 and the second cutting edge 62. During machining, the arc-shaped cutting edge 8 prevents chips from entering the concave space 6, thus avoiding chip damage to the hole wall surface and the formation of extrusion marks and scratches. The size of the oil guide groove 9 is designed to prevent chips from passing through while allowing cutting fluid to pass through. It allows cutting fluid to flow into the concave space 6 while preventing chips from entering. The cutting fluid enters the concave space 6 through the oil guide groove 9 and, under pressure from the hole wall, generates a flexible guiding effect, thereby enhancing guidance and improving the hole machining quality.
[0038] Furthermore, on a cross section perpendicular to the cutting portion 2, the diameter of the arc-shaped cutting edge 8 is equal to the diameter of the cutting portion 2, further preventing chips from entering the concave space 6 during machining. The concave space 6 connects the concave space 6 with the external space of the concave space 6.
[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cutting diameter of the cutting part 2 is set as D, and the maximum width of the arc-shaped cutting edge 8 is set as w, satisfying D / 40≤w≤D / 20. The width w of the arc-shaped cutting edge 8 needs to be set to a reasonable value. If the value of w is too large, it will increase the friction with the side wall of the workpiece. Therefore, w satisfies: D / 40≤w≤D / 20. Preferably, D=10mm, w=0.4mm.
[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the width of the oil guide groove 9 is set to L2, satisfying 0.2≤L2≤0.6.
[0041] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the depth of the oil guide groove 9 is set to L3, satisfying 0.2 < L3 ≤ 0.6.
[0042] The width L2 and depth L3 of the oil guide groove 9 need to be set to reasonable values to avoid chips entering the concave space 6 due to excessively large values, which would cause the chips to scratch the surface of the hole wall. L2 and L3 satisfy: 0.2≤L2≤0.6, 0.2≤L3≤0.6. Preferably, L2=0.4mm, L3=0.4mm.
[0043] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the helix angles of the first cutting edge 61 and the second cutting edge 62 are the same, denoted as β, satisfying: 10°≤β≤50°. Preferably, β=30°.
[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, on a cross section perpendicular to the cutting part 2, the line connecting the first cutting edge 61 and the central axis of the cutting part 2 is designated as S1, and the line connecting the second cutting edge 62 and the central axis of the cutting part 2 is designated as S2. The included angle between S1 and S2 is designated as α, satisfying 20°≤α≤80°, which is beneficial for ensuring a better guiding effect. Preferably, α=50°.
[0045] In a section perpendicular to the cutting portion 2 and passing through the starting points of the first cutting edge 61 and the second cutting edge 62, the angle between the first cutting edge 61 and the second cutting edge 62 in the circumferential direction of the cutting portion 2 is also α, where α satisfies: 20°≤α≤80°. Preferably, α=50°.
[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the radial widths of the first cutting edge 61 and the second cutting edge 62 are equal, set as L4, satisfying D / 25≤L4≤D / 15. Preferably, L4=0.5mm.
[0047] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the minimum distance between the oil guide groove 9 and the secondary cutting edge 32 is set to L5, satisfying L5=L4+0.1. Preferably, L5=0.6mm.
[0048] Furthermore, in this embodiment, there is only one oil guide groove 9.
[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cutting part 2 includes two cutting edges 5, and correspondingly, the drill tip 3 is provided with two main cutting edges 31. The first cutting edge 61 intersects with the corresponding spiral chip removal groove 4 to form a secondary cutting edge 32, and the secondary cutting edge 32 is connected to the corresponding main cutting edge 31.
[0050] Example 2:
[0051] Figures 6 to 10 This paper illustrates another embodiment of the double-edged twist drill of the present invention. The structure of the double-edged twist drill in this embodiment is basically the same as that in Embodiment 1, except that: multiple oil guide grooves 9 are provided, and the distance between adjacent oil guide grooves 9 is set to L6, satisfying 0.2≤L6≤0.4. Preferably, L6=0.4mm.
[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the oil guide grooves 9 are evenly distributed along the extension direction of the arc-shaped blade strip 8.
[0053] For example, three oil guide grooves 9 are provided on the arc-shaped cutting edge 8. The oil guide grooves 9 are evenly distributed on the arc-shaped cutting edge 8, and the interval between adjacent oil guide grooves 9 is L6. L6 satisfies: 0.2≤L6≤0.4.
[0054] Example 3:
[0055] The double-edged twist drill of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2, except that: the cutting part 2 includes three cutting edges 5 and three spiral chip removal grooves 4, and correspondingly, the drill tip 3 is provided with three main cutting edges 31. The first cutting edge 61 intersects with the corresponding spiral chip removal groove 4 to form a secondary cutting edge 32, and the secondary cutting edge 32 is connected to the corresponding main cutting edge 31.
[0056] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make many possible variations and modifications to the present invention, or modify it into equivalent embodiments, without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention, without departing from the content of the present invention, should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
