[0035] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0036] In the prior art, the two cutting tools are a first grooving tool 600 and a second grooving tool 700. The first grooving tool 600 is used to machine the inner part of the dovetail groove, and the second grooving tool 700 is used to machine the outer part of the dovetail groove. After the dovetail groove 310 is machined on the product 300, a tool mark 800 will appear at the junction of the first grooving tool 600 and the second grooving tool 700 in the dovetail groove 310.

[0037] Reference Figures 2-6 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a dovetail turning tool, comprising:

[0038] The tool holder 100 has a mounting groove 110 at its front end; the tail end of the tool holder 100 is connected to the lathe tool holder (not shown in the figure), and the lathe drives the cutting tool to cut the workpiece 300.

[0039] The blade 200 includes a connecting portion 210 and a cutting portion 220 connected to the front end of the connecting portion 210; the connecting portion 210 is connected to the mounting groove 110; the shape of the cutting portion 220 is consistent with the shape of the dovetail groove 310.

[0040] A support portion 400 is located at the front end of the tool holder portion 100, and the cutting insert 200 rests on top of the support portion 400. The support portion 400 supports the cutting insert 200, preventing the cutting portion 220 from being suspended in the air, thus ensuring the stability of the connection between the cutting insert 200 and the tool holder portion 100. This prevents the connection between the cutting insert 200 and the tool holder portion 100 from loosening due to prolonged cutting, which would affect machining accuracy and quality, thereby improving machining quality and extending the service life of the cutting insert 200.

[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, a cutting blade 200 is connected to the front end of the tool holder 100, and the tail end of the cutting part 220 of the cutting blade 200 is installed in the mounting groove 110. The front end of the cutting part 220 is supported by the support part 400. The shape of the cutting part 220 in this application is consistent with the shape of the dovetail groove 310, so that the dovetail groove 310 of the required size can be machined in one go without forming tool marks 800 in the dovetail groove 310, thus ensuring the symmetry of the dovetail groove 310. This reduces the number of tools, saves the time for changing tools, reduces the debugging time, improves the processing efficiency, and reduces the problem of production failure due to insufficient number of machine tool magazines.

[0042] Furthermore, the rear end face of the connecting portion 210 is arc-shaped 211. Correspondingly, this part in the mounting groove 110 is also arc-shaped. Specifically, the arc-shaped 211 design disperses the stress on the rear end face of the connecting portion 210, reduces stress concentration, and improves the service life of the blade 200; in addition, it enhances the aesthetics.

[0043] Furthermore, the corner of the connection between the support portion 400 and the handle portion 100 is rounded by 500. Specifically, this embodiment can reduce stress concentration at the connection between the handle portion 100 and the support portion 400, thereby improving the stability of the connection structure between the support portion 400 and the handle portion 100, improving the load-bearing capacity of the support portion 400, and thus improving the service life of the blade 200.

[0044] Furthermore, the front end face 410 of the support portion is inclined inward from top to bottom. Specifically, in this embodiment, the inclined front end face 410 of the support portion can achieve avoidance, preventing it from hitting the product 300 to be processed during the cutting process, thereby improving processing accuracy.

[0045] Furthermore, the side surface 420 of the support portion is inclined inward from top to bottom. Specifically, in this embodiment, the inclined side surface 420 of the support portion can achieve avoidance, preventing it from hitting the product 300 to be processed during the cutting process, thereby improving processing accuracy.

[0046] Furthermore, the side surface 212 of the connecting part is provided with a beveled surface. Specifically, the beveled surface design achieves clearance, avoids overcutting during cutting, and thus improves machining quality.

[0047] Furthermore, the rear end face 120 of the tool holder is inclined and tilted inward from top to bottom. Specifically, this embodiment can reduce weight, save materials, and lower costs on the one hand, and avoid the product 300 to be processed on the other.

[0048] Furthermore, the width B1 of the front end of the tool holder 100 is smaller than the width B2 of the rear end. Specifically, this embodiment can avoid the product 300 to be processed on the one hand, and reduce weight on the other.

[0049] In some embodiments, the cutting tool 200 is welded into the mounting groove 110 of the tool holder 100. Thus, after prolonged machining wear, if the cutting tool becomes worn and no longer meets machining requirements, the entire cutting tool needs to be replaced, resulting in high costs.

[0050] Furthermore, the tool holder 100 and the cutting tool 200 are detachably connected. For example, the tool holder 100 and the cutting tool 200 are connected by screws. Specifically, this embodiment facilitates the quick replacement of damaged cutting tools 200, improving machining efficiency. Thus, only the cutting tool 200 needs to be replaced after wear, eliminating the need to replace the entire cutting tool and reducing maintenance costs.

[0051] Furthermore, the back angle of the cutting part 220 is 1° to 3°.

[0052] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
