Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection" and "installation" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a detachable connection or a non-detachable connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "connection" can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. "Fixed" means that the relative positional relationship remains unchanged after the connection. The directional terms mentioned in the embodiments of this utility model, such as "inner," "outer," "top," and "bottom," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for better and clearer explanation and understanding of the embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the embodiments of this utility model.

[0023] In this embodiment of the invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0024] like Figure 1-4As shown, a boring machine for machining conical holes in a converter includes a conical tool holder 100. Four mounting slots 101 are coaxially and at equal angles on the surface of the conical tool holder 100. Mounting sleeves 102 are installed inside the mounting slots 101, and cutting tools 104 are inserted inside the mounting sleeves 102. Screw holes are formed on the outer surface of the cutting tools 104, and fixing bolts 103 matching the screw holes are installed on the outer surface of the mounting sleeves 102. An adjusting mechanism 200 is provided inside the conical tool holder 100, which can simultaneously drive the four mounting sleeves 102 to slide within the mounting slots 101. A connecting seat 105 is installed at the bottom of the conical tool holder 100.

[0025] In use, the connecting seat 105 is connected to the boring bar of the boring machine. The boring bar drives the tapered tool holder 100 to rotate, and the four tools 104 simultaneously cut the inner wall of the inner hole, thus machining the inner hole into a tapered hole. When it is necessary to machine tapered holes of different sizes, the adjusting mechanism 200 is used to simultaneously drive the four mounting sleeves 102 to slide in the mounting groove 101, thereby changing the distance the tools 104 extend outward, thus enabling the machining of tapered holes of different sizes. When the tools 104 are damaged, the fixing bolts 103 can be unscrewed from the screw holes, and then the tools 104 can be pulled out of the mounting sleeves 102 for replacement.

[0026] Preferably, the adjusting mechanism 200 includes an inner cavity 201 formed inside the conical tool holder 100. A screw 203 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the inner cavity 201 via a first bearing 202 at equal angles along the same axis. The end of the screw 203 extends through the inner side of the mounting sleeve 102 and is threadedly connected thereto. A first bevel gear 204 is mounted on the end of the screw 203 located inside the inner cavity 201. A rotating shaft 206 is rotatably mounted inside the inner cavity 201 via a second bearing 205. A second bevel gear 207 is mounted on the end of the rotating shaft 206 located inside the inner cavity 201. The second bevel gear 207 simultaneously meshes with four first bevel gears 204.

[0027] When the rotating shaft 206 is rotated, it drives the second bevel gear 207 to rotate. Since the second bevel gear 207 meshes with the four first bevel gears 204 at the same time, it can drive the four screws 203 to rotate simultaneously. Since the screws 203 are threadedly connected to the mounting sleeve 102, and the mounting sleeve 102 is limited by the inner wall of the mounting groove 101, the mounting sleeve 102 can slide inside the mounting groove 101 under the action of the threaded connection, thereby changing the outward extension distance of the tool 104.

[0028] Preferably, a worm gear 300 is mounted on the top of the rotating shaft 206, and a worm 301 is meshed with the outer surface of the worm gear 300.

[0029] The transmission method using the worm gear 300 and worm 301 can save effort and provide higher precision in adjusting the position of the tool 104.

[0030] Preferably, a protective cover 400 is installed on the top of the conical tool holder 100. The protective cover 400 covers the outside of the worm gear 300 and the worm 301, and the two ends of the worm 301 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the protective cover 400.

[0031] The protective cover 400 can prevent chips from coming into contact with the worm wheel 300 and worm 301 during the cutting process, thus preventing damage or jamming.

[0032] Preferably, one end of the worm 301 extends through to the outside of the protective cover 400 and is fitted with a knob 500. The outer surface of the protective cover 400 is provided with multiple positioning holes 501 at equal angles to the coaxial axis of the worm 301. The knob 500 is fitted with a positioning bolt 502 that matches the positioning holes 501.

[0033] Turning the knob 500 can rotate the worm gear 301, thereby adjusting the position of the tool 104. After the position of the tool 104 is adjusted, the positioning bolt 502 is screwed into the positioning hole 501 corresponding to its current position, thereby locking the worm gear 301 and preventing the mounting sleeve 102 from shifting during the cutting process, thus ensuring the machining quality.

[0034] Preferably, the surface of the cutting tool 104 is provided with a relief hole 600, and the end of the screw 203 away from the first bevel gear 204 is disposed in the relief hole 600.

[0035] The inner wall of the clearance hole 600 does not contact the screw 203, providing installation space for the screw 203 so that the mounting sleeve 102 can move along the length of the screw 203.

[0036] The above is a detailed description of the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments, and it should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, any equivalent substitutions or obvious modifications made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and which have the same performance or use, should be considered as falling within the patent protection scope defined by the submitted claims.
