AI Technical Summary
Existing reamers present a contradiction in balancing tool strength and cutting performance. A large clearance angle results in a sharp but weak cutting edge, making it prone to chipping. Conversely, a small clearance angle leads to poor chip removal and material burning. It is difficult to balance service life and cutting performance.
The cutting edge of the hinge drill is equipped with a cutting edge and a chip-breaking groove. The cutting edge has an inclination angle of 5° to 15° and a width of 0.05mm to 0.3mm. The end cutting surface has an inclination angle of 10° to 20° and a chip-breaking groove depth of 0.2 to 0.5mm. The tool structure is optimized by combining helical and flat groove designs.
It extends tool life without reducing cutting performance and efficiently removes wood chips through the chip divider, thus improving processing efficiency.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drill bit technology, and in particular to a woodworking hinge drill. Background Technology
[0002] In existing reamers, the angle between the cutting face and the chip plane of the workpiece is called the clearance angle. The size of the clearance angle is crucial. A large clearance angle results in a sufficiently sharp cutting edge, good chip removal, and good cutting performance, but also lower cutting edge strength, making it prone to chipping and reducing tool life. Conversely, a small clearance angle results in high cutting edge strength and long tool life, but also poor chip removal, increased susceptibility to material burning, and poor cutting performance. Simply changing the clearance angle makes it difficult to balance both tool life and cutting performance. Utility Model Content

The head is fixedly mounted on the other end of the blade. A tip, which mates with the axis of the blade, is fixedly mounted on the middle of the head. End cutting surfaces are centrally symmetrically arranged on both sides of the head. First chip removal grooves are centrally symmetrically arranged on both sides of the head. A second chip removal groove, which mates with the first chip removal groove, is provided on the side wall of the blade.

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0023] See Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0024] A woodworking hinge drill includes a handle 1, a blade 2, a head 3, and a tip 4. One end of the blade 2 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the handle 1. The head 3 is fixedly mounted on the other end of the blade 2. A tip 4, which mates with the axis of the blade 2, is fixedly mounted on the middle of the head 3. End cutting surfaces 5 are centrally symmetrically arranged on both sides of the head 3. First chip removal grooves 6 are centrally symmetrically arranged on both sides of the head 3. A second chip removal groove 7, which mates with the first chip removal groove 6, is provided on the side wall of the blade 2. A cutting edge 11 is provided on the end cutting surface 5, forming an end face cutting edge 8 between the cutting edge 11 and the first chip removal groove 6. The first chip removal groove 6 is a spiral groove, and the second chip removal groove 7 is a planar groove or a cylindrical groove. The two ends of the head 3 extend to the outer side of the blade 2. The handle 1, blade 2, and blade head 3 are welded together. A mounting groove is provided at the end of the blade 2, and the blade head 3 is fixed in the mounting groove. The blade tip 4 is integrally formed with the blade head 3. The blade tip 4 serves a positioning function during wood processing. The end cutting surface 5 and the side cutting edge 9 are both used to cut the wood. The first chip removal groove 6 is used to remove wood chips generated during processing, which are then discharged through the second chip removal groove 7.
[0025] In some embodiments, a side cutting edge 9 is formed between the first chip removal groove 6 and the side wall of the cutter head 3, and a through chip-dispersing groove 10 is provided on the end cutting surface 5. The chip-dispersing groove 10 on the cutter head 3 allows for efficient removal of wood chips generated during processing, effectively improving processing efficiency.
[0026] In some embodiments, the inclination angle of the cutting edge 11 is 5° to 15°, and the width of the cutting edge 11 is 0.05mm to 0.3mm. The inclination angle of the end cutting surface 5 is greater than the inclination angle of the cutting edge 11, and the inclination angle of the end cutting surface 5 is 10° to 20°. If the inclination angle of the cutting edge 11 is too large, the tip strength of the end face cutting edge 8 will be low, the chipping resistance of the tip will be weakened, and the tool life will be shortened. If the inclination angle of the cutting edge 11 is too small, it is easy to burn material during machining, resulting in a poor workpiece appearance and increased tool heat, which will also shorten tool life. If the width of the cutting edge 11 is too small, the tip strength of the end face cutting edge 8 will be low, the chipping resistance of the tip will be weakened, and the tool life will be shortened. If the width of the cutting edge 11 is too large, it is easy to burn material during machining, resulting in a poor workpiece appearance and increased tool heat, which will also shorten tool life. The commonly used inclination angles of the cutting edge 11 are 5°, 10°, and 15°, and the commonly used inclination angles of the end cutting surface 5 are 10°, 15°, and 20°. The inclination angle of the end cutting surface 5 is greater than the inclination angle of the cutting edge 11. For example, when the inclination angle of the cutting edge 11 is 10°, the inclination angle of the end cutting surface 5 is 15°.
[0027] In some embodiments, the depth of the chip-breaking groove 10 is 0.2–0.5 mm. Chip-breaking grooves 10 are provided on the end cutting surfaces 5 on both sides of the blade tip 4, and the chip-breaking grooves 10 are arc-shaped. If the depth of the chip-breaking groove 10 is too deep, the strength of the end face cutting edge 8 will be significantly weakened, reducing the tool life. If the depth of the chip-breaking groove 10 is too shallow, the chip-breaking effect will be poor, the increase in chip removal space will be insignificant, and material may even get stuck and burn at the chip-breaking groove 10 position, resulting in poor chip removal.
[0028] In some embodiments, the rake angle of the end face cutting edge 8 is 18–25°. Commonly used included angles are 18°, 20°, and 25°. In existing products, this included angle is mostly 15–18°, which makes the end face cutting edge 8 not sharp enough, and may cause material burning or even tool breakage during processing. Appropriately increasing this angle can improve the sharpness of the end face cutting edge 8, improve processing quality, and extend tool life.
