Detailed Implementation

[0028] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, further illustrating the present invention.

[0029] First, combine Figures 1-6 This invention describes a hexagonal shank reamer according to an embodiment of the present invention, used for cutting drill holes.

[0030] like Figures 1-6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a hexagonal shank reamer, comprising: a hexagonal shank 1, a cutting head and a cutting edge, and a cooling system;

[0031] The cutting head includes: a head cone tip 2, a drilling section 3, and a reaming section 4;

[0032] The drilling section 3 has a large-diameter end and a small-diameter end. The head cone tip 2 is located at the small-diameter end. The first end of the reaming section 4 is connected to the large-diameter end of the drilling section. The second end of the reaming section 4 is connected to the hexagonal shank 1. Both the drilling section 3 and the reaming section 4 are provided with cutting edges. The cutting edges are arranged circumferentially on the drilling section 3 and the reaming section 4. The cutting edges are spirally arranged on the surface of the drilling section and the reaming section 4. A chip removal groove is provided between two adjacent reaming sections 4.

[0033] The cooling system is located inside the hexagonal shank 1 and the cutting head. Cooling holes are provided on the groove wall of the chip removal groove. The cooling holes are connected to the cooling system. During the drilling process, the lubricating oil in the cooling system flows out from the cooling holes.

[0034] This application uses a hexagonal shank 1 to drive the cutter head to rotate. The tip 2 of the head cone first contacts the material to be drilled and positions it. The cutting edge on the drilling section 3 drills the hole, gradually increasing the diameter of the hole. The reaming section 4 forms a cylindrical hole. During the drilling process, the lubricating oil in the cooling system reaches the surface of the cutter head through the cooling hole to lubricate and cool the cutter head, reducing the wear on the reamer during the drilling process and ensuring the service life of the reamer.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the inclination angle of one side of the drilled section 3 is 3°~8°. The helix angle of the cutting edge is 6°~20°.

[0036] In this embodiment, the diameter of the hole is gradually increased by the drilling section 3 during the drilling process, and the drilling efficiency is improved by the spirally arranged cutting edge.

[0037] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the cutting edge includes: a first cutting edge 5 and a second cutting edge 6;

[0038] The first cutting edge 5 is provided on the drilling section 3, and the second cutting edge 6 is provided on the reaming section 4.

[0039] like Figure 3 The figure shows a cross-sectional view of the first cutting edge 5. The outer surface of the first cutting edge 5 is tapered, and the angle of the tapered angle is 5° to 18°. The right side of the cross-section of the first cutting edge 5 is inclined, and the angle between the right side and the vertical plane is -5° to 5°.

[0040] like Figure 4 The figure shows a cross-sectional view of the second cutting edge 6. The outer surface of the second cutting edge 6 is spirally arranged with a spiral angle of 6° to 20°. The right side of the cross-section of the second cutting edge 6 is inclined, and the angle between the right side and the vertical plane is -5° to 10°.

[0041] The outer surface of the second cutting edge 6 is provided with a cutting edge band, the width of which is 0.1cm to 0.4cm.

[0042] In this embodiment, by setting the outer surface of the first cutting edge 5 to be tapered and the right side face of the first cutting edge 5 to be inclined, the drilling efficiency of the first cutting edge 5 can be effectively improved. Similarly, by setting the outer surface of the second cutting edge 6 to be inclined and the right side face of the second cutting edge 6 to be inclined, the drilling efficiency of the second cutting edge 6 can be effectively improved. This, in turn, improves the drilling efficiency of the reamer.

[0043] The hexagonal handle 1 is in the shape of a regular hexagon, and a groove 7 is provided on the hexagonal handle 1.

[0044] The cooling system includes: an oil storage chamber 8, an oil supply pipe 9, and an oil discharge pipe 10;

[0045] The oil storage chamber 8 is located in the hexagonal handle. One end of the oil storage chamber 8 is connected to the oil injection pipe, and the other end is connected to the oil delivery pipe 9. The oil delivery pipe 9 is located in the cutter head. Several oil discharge pipes 10 are connected to the oil delivery pipe 9. The oil discharge pipes 10 are connected to the cooling holes on the wall of the chip removal groove.

[0046] The oil drain pipe 10 includes: a guide section, an oil outlet section, and a one-way valve;

[0047] One end of the guide section is connected to the oil supply pipe 9 and the other end is connected to the oil outlet section. One end of the oil outlet section is connected to the cooling hole. Both the guide section and the oil outlet section are arc-shaped and have opposite arc directions. The one-way valve is located at the connection between the guide section and the oil outlet section and is used to allow the lubricating oil in the guide section to enter the oil outlet section.

[0048] In this embodiment, during the drilling process, the rotation of the reamer generates centrifugal force. The lubricating oil in the oil supply pipe 9 enters the guide section under the action of centrifugal force. The thrust generated by the centrifugal force allows the lubricating oil to enter the oil outlet section through the one-way valve. By making the arc direction of the guide section and the oil outlet section different, the speed of the lubricating oil leaving the oil outlet section can be slowed down, so that the lubricating oil adheres to the cutting head, thereby lubricating and cooling the cutting head.

[0049] Above, refer to Figures 1-6 This application describes a hexagonal shank reamer according to an embodiment of the present invention. The hexagonal shank 1 drives the cutter head to rotate. The tip 2 of the head cone first contacts the material to be drilled and positions it. The cutting edge on the drilling section 3 drills the hole, gradually increasing the diameter of the hole. The reaming section 4 forms a cylindrical hole. During the drilling process, the lubricating oil in the cooling system reaches the surface of the cutter head through the cooling hole to lubricate and cool the cutter head, reducing wear on the reamer during the drilling process and ensuring the service life of the reamer.
