Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turning tool technology, specifically a tool for cutting shaft holes. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of motor design and manufacturing, the motor shaft, as a core transmission component, directly affects the motor's dynamic response performance and energy efficiency due to its weight and inertial resistance. To reduce the inertial resistance of the motor shaft, coaxially arranged shaft holes are typically machined between the threaded holes extending axially at both ends of the shaft to achieve weight reduction. The diameter of the shaft holes is usually larger than that of the threaded holes to maximize the weight reduction effect.

[0003] However, traditional turning methods present significant technical challenges when machining such shaft holes. Due to the presence of threaded holes, conventional turning tools are obstructed by the inner wall of the threaded hole when extending into the shaft, preventing the tool from reaching the bottom area of ​​the threaded hole and making it difficult to complete the machining of the entire length of the shaft hole. This problem limits the depth and machining efficiency of the shaft hole, thus affecting the lightweight optimization effect of the motor shaft. Utility Model Content

[0032] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model discloses a cutting tool for cutting shaft holes, including a fixed rod 1 and an extension rod 2 connected in sequence and arranged coaxially. The fixed rod 1 and the extension rod 2 are made of cemented carbide.

[0034] The fixing rod 1 is provided with a profile for fixing the tool by connecting it to the profile.

[0035] The extension rod 2 is used to insert into the threaded holes 12 located at the center of both ends of the motor shaft 14 and extending axially. Figure 2 For reference, a radially penetrating notch 4 is provided on the lower side of the extension rod 2. A mounting part 6 is provided at the left end of the extension rod 2. The mounting part 6 protrudes downward and is fitted with a parallelogram-shaped cutter 3. The specific mounting structure is as follows: the mounting part 6 forms a plane 61 perpendicular to the notch 4 through a cutting method. (See image below.) Figure 7 As shown, a recessed, V-shaped mounting platform 7 is provided on plane 61. The bottom of the mounting platform 7 extends towards the notch 4, forming a support surface that conforms to the shape of the cutter 3. Bolt 11 passes through the cutter 3 and is threadedly connected to the mounting part 6 to secure the cutter 3. The line connecting the obtuse angles of the cutter 3 divides the cutter 3 into two symmetrical parts, one of which is engaged within the mounting platform 7. The support surface provides overall support for the cutter 3, causing the area of ​​the cutter 3 located outside the mounting platform 7 to protrude towards the notch 4. This not only improves the positional accuracy of the cutter 3 but also enhances its positional stability.

[0036] The maximum radial width of the extension rod 2 where the cutter 3 is located is less than the diameter of the threaded hole 12 of the motor shaft 14, so that the cutter 3 and the extension rod 2 can be inserted into the threaded hole 12 at the end of the motor shaft 14 without obstruction.

[0037] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the cutting end 31 is located in the area outside the chuck 7 and is facing away from the fixing rod 1. The leftmost side of this cutting end 31 extends beyond the mounting part 6 to the left, so that when the shaft hole 13 is machined, the mounting part 6 will not contact the motor shaft 14, and no additional resistance will be generated.

[0038] It can be seen that the notch 4 creates a space for the motor shaft 14 to move radially between the extension rod 2 and the hole wall of the threaded hole 12; and the cutter 3 protrudes in the direction of the notch 4, so that when the motor shaft 14 moves radially, the cutter 3 can cut a shaft hole 13 that meets the diameter requirements.

[0039] The diameter of the outer side of the extension rod 2, which is coaxial with the fixed rod 1, is larger than the diameter of the fixed rod 1. The side of the extension rod 2 with the notch 4 protrudes towards the notch 4, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the protrusion is arc-shaped. The connection between the extension rod 2 and the fixing rod 1 at the notch 4 is achieved through an inclined connecting surface 5; as shown... Figure 4 As shown, the connecting surface 5 is a raised arc-shaped surface. This design makes the extension rod 2 stronger and more rigid, and prevents vibration during turning, thus preventing vibration marks from appearing on the hole wall of the shaft hole 13.

[0040] The connection between the mounting part 6 and the extension rod 2 is made by an inclined transition surface 9; such as Figure 5 As shown, the outlet of the cutting fluid hole 10 extends from the transition surface 9, and the inlet extends from the end of the fixing rod 1; the outlet of the cutting fluid hole 10 is directly opposite the center of the cutter 3. The cutting fluid flows in from the inlet of the cutting fluid hole 10 and flows out from the outlet, spraying onto the cutter 3 for cutting and cooling. The design of the cutting fluid hole 10 overcomes the problem of insufficient cooling space and also makes the structure of this utility model more compact.

[0041] The operation steps of this utility model are as follows:

[0042] S1, such as Figure 8 As shown, one end of the motor shaft 14 to be processed is sleeved with the extension rod 2, so that the cutter 3 extends to the bottom of the threaded hole 12;

[0043] S2, drive motor shaft 14 to rotate;

[0044] S3, such as Figure 9 As shown, the drive motor shaft 14 moves radially;

[0045] S4, such as Figure 10 As shown, the drive motor shaft 14 moves axially in the direction of the tool;

[0046] S5. When the extension rod 2 is entirely located in the motor shaft 14, stop driving the motor shaft 14 to rotate, and remove the motor shaft 14 to separate it from the tool.

[0047] S6, disassemble and assemble the motor shaft 14 so that its other end faces the tool;

[0048] S7. Repeat steps S1-S5 to complete the machining of shaft hole 13.

[0049] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
