Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a boring tool, specifically a high-efficiency multi-blade adjustable boring tool, belonging to the field of boring tool technology. Background Technology

[0002] As a key tool in hole machining, the boring tool's core function is to correct the deviation of the hole system axis and achieve high-precision machining. Compared with drilling and reaming processes, boring can adjust the positional accuracy of the original hole through multiple toolpaths, making it particularly suitable for machining large-diameter holes or hole systems with high positional accuracy requirements. Traditional boring tools have economic advantages in single-piece or small-batch production.

[0003] However, most existing boring tools have various problems. For example, in a multi-functional boring tool disclosed in CN103769631A, although it can clamp drills, milling cutters, and boring tools, has an adjustment mechanism, adjustable machining dimensions, a wide machining range, is easy to use, and improves efficiency, and the tools can share a single tool body to save costs, in this technical solution and most current technical solutions, the boring tool is mostly a single-edge structure. Although the single-edge boring tool structure is simple and flexible to adjust, the machining efficiency is low. It relies on only a single cutting edge to complete material removal, the metal removal rate is limited, and the machining accuracy depends on the operator's experience. The adjustment process is time-consuming and difficult to achieve consistency. Especially in mass production, it is difficult to meet the high-efficiency requirements. Although the multi-edge design can theoretically improve efficiency, small-diameter boring tools have insufficient rigidity of the tool holder system. Simultaneous cutting by multiple edges can easily cause vibration and deformation, resulting in deterioration of the machined surface roughness or even dimensional deviation. Utility Model Content

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. Example 1

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a high-efficiency multi-blade adjustable boring tool includes a tool holder 1, a cutting head 2, and a milling mechanism 3. The cutting head 2 is connected to one end of the tool holder 1, and the tool holder 1 and the cutting head 2 have a modular and detachable structure. The cutting head 2 is provided with multiple cutting edge modules, and the milling mechanism 3 is located at the end of the cutting head 2 away from the tool holder 1.

[0023] The milling mechanism 3 includes a tool holder mounting groove 31, a tool holder 32, a milling insert 33, and an adjustment unit. The tool holder mounting groove 31 is recessed at the end of the cutter head 2 away from the tool holder 1. The tool holder 32 is locked in the tool holder mounting groove 31, and the milling insert 33 is connected and locked on the tool holder 32.

[0024] The adjustment unit includes a first adjustment groove 34, a first wedge block 35, and a first adjustment screw 36. The first adjustment groove 34 is recessed on the cutter head 2 and located at one end of the cutter clamp mounting groove 31. The first wedge block 35 is engaged in the first adjustment groove 34, and the wedge surface abuts against one end of the cutter clamp 32. The first adjustment screw 36 passes through the first wedge block 35 and is threadedly engaged with the cutter head 2.

[0025] The adjustment unit also includes a second adjustment groove 37, a second wedge block 38, and a second adjustment screw 39. The second adjustment groove 37 is recessed on the cutter head 2 and located at the center of one side of the cutter clamp mounting groove 31. The second wedge block 38 is engaged in the second adjustment groove 37 and its wedge surface slides against the side wall of the cutter clamp 32. The second adjustment screw 39 passes through the second wedge block 38 and is threadedly engaged with the cutter head 2.

[0026] In this invention, the modularly designed cutting head 2 allows the boring tool to support quick replacement of cutting head modules with different numbers of cutting edges, such as 3 or 4, to adapt to different machining scenarios. It also supports the replacement of different insert models, making it suitable for machining different materials. The inclined surface of the first wedge block 35 pushes the tool holder 32 to move, and the inclined surface of the second wedge block 38 achieves quick locking of the side of the tool holder 32. The self-locking characteristic eliminates the small gaps after adjustment, ensuring the stability of the insert position during cutting and suppressing vibration and deformation. It is especially suitable for small-diameter tool bodies. The first wedge block 35 and the second wedge block 38 work together with a precision thread drive to achieve micron-level adjustment of the radial position of the insert, meeting the requirements of high-precision hole machining, while reducing the time spent on repeated manual calibration. Example 2

[0031] A liquid injection chamber 6 is provided at the axis of the tool holder 1, and a spray hole 7 is provided on the tool head 2. Multiple spray holes 7 are provided, and all of them are connected to the liquid injection chamber 6. Coolant is sprayed through the spray holes 7 to achieve the internal cooling effect of the boring tool, and at the same time, it can also wash away the waste chips.

[0032] Working principle: When using this boring bar, first combine the appropriate type of cutter head 2 with the cutter bar 1 according to actual needs. Then connect the external guide pipe to the liquid injection chamber 6, guide the coolant through the external guide pipe, and spray it out through the spray hole 7 to start the milling operation. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the milling cutter 33, first turn the first adjusting screw 36, and push the tool holder 32 to the designated position through the inclined surface of the first wedge block 35. Then turn the second adjusting screw 39, and lock the side of the tool holder 32 through the inclined surface of the second wedge block 38.

[0033] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention.
