Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conical reamers, specifically to a conical reamer for reaming conical holes. Background Technology
[0002] A conical reamer is a rotary finishing tool specifically designed for reaming conical holes. It consists of a roughing reamer and a finishing reamer, used for roughing and finishing conical holes respectively. Conical holes machined by a conical reamer have high precision and low surface roughness. Conical reamers are widely used in the manufacture of mechanical parts that require the machining of conical holes. They are particularly suitable for machining internal conical holes with small diameters and high precision requirements, such as tapered pin holes and Morse taper holes.
[0003] When existing conical reamers need to be installed on a lathe, they are usually fixed in the tailstock sleeve of the lathe using bolts, nuts or other fasteners. Fixing with bolts, nuts and other fasteners requires multiple steps, the installation process is cumbersome and requires high operational precision, so the whole installation process may take a long time.
[0004] For example, the patented high-strength precision reamer mounting structure with easy disassembly and assembly, as disclosed in patent CN219881826U, has a fixing groove on the side wall of the mounting post. The pin is inserted into the fixing groove under the elasticity of the second spring. The lower end of the pin has a threaded groove, and one end of the pin can be fixedly connected to the adjusting plate by bolts, making it easy for the mounting post to be inserted or pulled out of the mounting sleeve. However, it is still necessary to tighten two bolts to fix one end of the pin to the threaded hole of the adjusting plate near the mounting sleeve. Tightening the bolts still requires a certain amount of time and effort. When frequent reamer replacement or a large number of processing tasks are required, this mounting method may still reduce production efficiency and increase the complexity of installation.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to solve the above problems by providing a conical reamer for reaming conical holes. Utility Model Content

[0026] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments.
[0027] The components of the present invention embodiments described and shown in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in a variety of different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention.
[0028] Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0029] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-6 The conical reamer shown includes a reamer body 1, with a mounting joint 2 at one end of the reamer body 1. A sliding locking sleeve 3 is fitted around the mounting joint 2, and a return spring 4 is installed inside the sliding locking sleeve 3. The mounting joint 2 has multiple annular grooves 5, and each annular groove 5 contains a steel ball 6. A tailstock sleeve 11 is provided at the connecting end of the mounting joint 2. A connector core 12 is provided at one end of the tailstock sleeve 11 that is inserted into the mounting joint 2. An axially movable male connector 15 is provided inside the tailstock sleeve 11. The outer wall of the connector core 12 has a groove 17 that matches the steel ball 6.
[0030] A protrusion 22 is provided at one end of the inner wall of the sliding lock sleeve 3. The return spring 4 is sleeved on the outside of the mounting joint 2, with its two ends abutting against the protrusion 22 and the limiting step of the mounting joint 2, respectively. The groove width of the annular groove 5 is matched with the diameter of the steel ball 6 according to the H7 / g6 tolerance, with a clearance of 0.003-0.024mm. The depth of the annular groove 5 is greater than 1.2 times the radius of the steel ball 6. A first bracket 7 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the mounting joint 2. A first sliding rod 8 is slidably arranged in the first bracket 7. One end of the slide rod 8 is connected to a female connector 9. A spring 10 is fitted on the slide rod 8. The two ends of the spring 10 abut against the side wall of the support 7 and the side wall of the female connector 9, respectively. A second support 13 is provided inside the tail sleeve 11. A second slide rod 14 is slidably arranged inside the second support 13. One end of the second slide rod 14 is connected to a male connector 15. A spring 16 is fitted on the slide rod 14. The two ends of the spring 16 abut against the side wall of the support 13 and the male connector 15, respectively.
[0031] In this embodiment, the protrusion 22 on the inner wall of the sliding lock sleeve 3 cooperates with the return spring 4 to form an automatic reset system. When an axial thrust is applied, the sliding lock sleeve 3 can compress the return spring 4 and move it by 5-8 mm to release the lock of the steel ball 6. After the external force is removed, the return spring 4 pushes the sliding lock sleeve 3 to accurately reset, ensuring that it automatically returns to the locked state after each disassembly. The steel ball 6 cooperates with the annular groove 5 with a depth of 1.2 times the radius of the steel ball 6, which not only ensures that the steel ball 6 rolls flexibly, but also prevents it from falling out radially.
[0032] The sliding locking sleeve 3 and the tailstock sleeve 11 are connected by a fastening locking sleeve 20. The outer wall of the sliding locking sleeve 3 is provided with a first external thread 18, and the outer wall of the tailstock sleeve 11 is provided with a second external thread 19. The fastening locking sleeve 20 is provided outside the first external thread 18 and the second external thread 19. The internal thread 21 of the fastening locking sleeve 20 forms a threaded locking structure with the first external thread 18 of the sliding locking sleeve 3 and the second external thread 19 of the tailstock sleeve 11.
[0033] In this embodiment, after the sliding locking sleeve 3 and the tailstock sleeve 11 are initially locked together by the engagement of the steel ball 6 and the groove 17, the locking sleeve 20 is rotated to gradually engage its internal thread 21 with the first external thread 18 and the second external thread 19 until the predetermined tightening torque is reached. At this time, the sliding locking sleeve 3 and the tailstock sleeve 11 are firmly connected together, ensuring the tightness and stability of the connection. This structure can effectively resist vibration and impact, and prevent the connection from loosening or falling off.
[0034] Working principle of this utility model:
[0035] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-6When using this utility model, when the reamer body 1 needs to be disassembled, first release the threaded lock of the fastening sleeve 20, rotate the fastening sleeve 20 counterclockwise downwards, so that the fastening sleeve 20 disengages from the first external thread 18 and the second external thread 19 on the outer wall of the sliding sleeve 3 and the tailstock sleeve 11. At this time, the threaded connection between the sliding sleeve 3 and the tailstock sleeve 11 is released. After the fastening sleeve 20 is released, pull the sliding sleeve 3 backwards to the limit position. At this time, the steel ball 6 is released from the constraint of the groove 17. At this time, the tailstock sleeve 11 can be separated by pulling it. No tools are needed throughout the process.
[0036] When the reamer body 1 needs to be installed, first align the connector core 12 of the tailstock sleeve 11 with the insertion port of the installation connector 2, keep the sliding locking sleeve 3 in the initial position and the return spring 4 fully extended, then apply axial thrust to push the tailstock sleeve 11, the steel ball 6 slides into the groove 17 along the conical surface of the connector core 12, accompanied by a "click" sound indicating that it is in place, the return spring 4 automatically pushes the sliding locking sleeve 3 to reset, completing the mechanical locking of the steel ball 6, and then rotate clockwise to tighten the locking sleeve 20, the internal thread 21 simultaneously engages the first external thread 18 and the second external thread 19, continue to rotate until the predetermined tightening torque is reached, ensuring that the sliding locking sleeve 3 and the tailstock sleeve 11 are firmly connected together;
[0037] The design allows for installation in two steps ("push-rotate") and disassembly in two steps ("pull-rotate"), making it simple and convenient to operate.
