Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of milling cutters, and in particular to a worm gear roughing milling cutter. Background Technology

[0002] Milling cutters are common components in machining, generally used in subtractive manufacturing to cut raw materials. In the machining of parts, a common approach is to first rough-machine to quickly reduce the allowance, and then finish-machine to achieve the specified dimensions. Rough-machine has lower precision requirements, but due to the large feed rate and depth of cutter, it places certain demands on the cutting tools.

[0003] Currently, there is a type of scroll milling machine that requires the removal of a large amount of material during machining. To ensure production efficiency, it is necessary to reduce the time spent on roughing. Therefore, a milling cutter capable of handling large feed rates and high rotational speeds is required. Thus, it is necessary to design a product that meets these requirements. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a worm gear roughing milling cutter. This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A worm gear roughing cutter includes a shank and a cutting edge. The cutting edge is fixedly disposed at one end of the shank. The cutting edge is provided with a plurality of cutting edges, which are unequally distributed at the end of the cutting edge. A plurality of helical cutting edges are provided on the cylindrical surface of the cutting edge. The position and number of the helical cutting edges correspond to the cutting edges, and the helical cutting edges are provided with corrugated side cutting surfaces.

[0006] In the above technical solution: the shank is used for tool holder clamping to facilitate spindle connection; the cutting edge is used for cutting; the cutting edge is used to enable cutting effect at the bottom of the cutting edge, thereby enabling planar milling, and the unequal division allows the cutting edges to wear alternately, extending the service life of the cutting edges; the helical cutting edge is used to enable cutting effect on the side of the cutting edge, thereby enabling the use of a larger feed rate to achieve rapid material removal; the corrugated side cutting surface makes chip removal smoother during cutting with the helical cutting edge, thus adapting to machining situations with large feed rates.

[0007] A further feature of this invention is that the cutting edge is also provided with a spiral chip removal groove, the position and number of which are consistent with the number of spiral cutting edges.

[0008] In the above technical solution: the chip removal groove is used to ensure smooth chip removal.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that the cutting edge includes a bottom cutting surface, the bottom cutting surface is inclined, the lower edges of all the bottom cutting surfaces are located in the same horizontal plane, and the upper edges of all the bottom cutting surfaces are also located in the same horizontal plane.

[0010] In the above technical solution: the bottom cutting edge is used to extrude specific materials and realize the milling function; the lower edges of all bottom cutting edges are located in the same horizontal plane, and the upper edges of all bottom cutting edges are also located in the same horizontal plane, so that the cutting edge can be more stable when rotating.

[0011] A further feature of this invention is that a central notch is provided in the middle of the bottom surface of the blade.

[0012] In the above technical solution, the central notch is designed so that the bottom edge surfaces are not directly connected, thus preventing damage to the bottom edge surfaces due to strong vibration.

[0013] This utility model discloses a worm gear roughing cutter, which, compared with the prior art:

[0014] This invention uses unequally divided cutting edges to make the wear of each cutting edge different during a single revolution, so that different cutting edges are actually used alternately, thereby improving the service life of the milling cutter.

[0015] This invention also improves the chip removal capability of the cutting edge by setting a corrugated side cutting surface, so that chipping or other issues will not occur when machining with a large feed rate. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Figure 1 This is a side view of the present invention;

[0017] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the bottom surface of the blade of this utility model.

[0018] The numbers and letters in the diagram represent the following component names: 10-shank; 20-cutting edge; 201-cutting edge; 201a-bottom cutting edge; 202-helical cutting edge; 202a-side cutting edge; 203-chip groove; 204-center notch. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. These embodiments are implemented based on the technical solution of this utility model and provide detailed implementation methods and specific operation processes. However, the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1 and 2As shown, this utility model proposes a worm gear roughing milling cutter, comprising a shank 10 and a cutting edge 20. The cutting edge 20 is fixedly disposed at one end of the shank 10. The cutting edge 20 is provided with a plurality of cutting edges 201, which are unequally distributed at the end of the cutting edge 20. A plurality of helical cutting edges 202 are provided on the cylindrical surface of the cutting edge 200. The position and number of the helical cutting edges 202 correspond to the cutting edges 201, and the helical cutting edges 202 are provided with corrugated side cutting surfaces 202a. The shank 10 and the cutting edge 20 have the same diameter and are coaxially arranged. Preferably, the shank 10 and the cutting edge 20 are integrally formed.

[0021] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, this utility model proposes a worm gear roughing cutter, wherein the cutting edge 20 is further provided with a spiral chip removal groove 203, the position and number of which are consistent with the number of spiral cutting edges 202. The cross-sectional shape of the chip removal groove 203 is arc-shaped.

[0022] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, this utility model proposes a worm gear roughing milling cutter. The cutting edge 201 includes a bottom cutting surface 201a, which is inclined. The lower edges of all bottom cutting surfaces 201a are located in the same horizontal plane, and the upper edges of all bottom cutting surfaces 201a are also located in the same horizontal plane. A flank face is also provided on the bottom surface of the cutting edge 20. The flank face is inclined to control the chip removal shape.

[0023] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the present invention discloses a worm gear roughing cutter, wherein a central notch 204 is provided in the middle of the bottom surface of the cutting edge 20. Preferably, the radius of the central notch 204 is one-fifth of the radius of the cutting edge 20.

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0025] When the worm gear needs rough machining;

[0026] The milling machine spindle drives the milling cutter to rotate;

[0027] The milling cutter rotates at high speed to cut the material from the worm gear.

[0028] The unequal cutting edges result in different wear rates for each cutting edge during a single revolution, thus allowing different cutting edges to be used alternately, thereby increasing the service life of the milling cutter.

[0029] When cutting from the side of the cutting edge, the corrugated side face improves the chip removal capability of the cutting edge, thus enabling it to adapt to high speeds and large feed rates.

[0030] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
