Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hole-making technology, and more specifically, to an adjustable self-centering hole-making device. Background Technology
[0002] In daily production and processing, it is often necessary to drill holes around the end face of flange workpieces or certain shell-like parts. The problems include: ① The usual processing method is to complete this on a CNC machine tool, requiring a series of operations such as clamping, alignment, tool changing, programming, unloading from the machine, and cleaning. This not only wastes time and is inefficient but also seriously wastes the capacity of the CNC equipment; ② If a regular drilling jig fitter is used instead, self-centering cannot be achieved. There is a problem that the center of the pitch circle of the drilled flange hole is not aligned with the axis of the flange workpiece itself, resulting in a "misalignment" phenomenon when assembling the two flange end faces, seriously affecting product quality.
[0003] There is currently no effective solution to the problem that the center of the pitch circle of the flange hole is not aligned with the axis of the flange workpiece itself in the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0006] Optionally, the adjustment unit further includes an adjustment knob; the adjustment knob is fixedly disposed at the top end of the adjustment screw and is used to adjust the up and down movement of the adjustment screw.
[0007] Optionally, at least three groove gaps are provided; at least three through holes are also provided; at least three telescopic rods are also provided; the groove gaps, the through holes, and the telescopic rods are all in one-to-one correspondence.
[0008] Optionally, the threaded hole is located at the center of the base; all the positioning holes are spaced apart around the center of the base.
[0009] Optionally, a transverse rib is provided inside the telescopic support head for fixed connection with the other end of the telescopic spring.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] This invention provides an adjustable self-centering hole-making device. By moving the adjusting unit downwards, the device compresses and drives the telescopic rod to slide upwards along the edge of the groove gap. This increases the length of the telescopic rod outside the fixed cover until the inner circle of the workpiece is tightly supported. At this point, a flange hole is machined around the end face of the workpiece by passing a drill through the positioning hole. This device can self-center and complete the machining of the flange hole around the workpiece without the need for additional datum alignment. It can adapt to the machining needs of workpieces with different inner diameters within a certain range. The device has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. Attached Figure Description
