Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a rotary tool used for cutting a workpiece, such as a drill or a reamer, and a method for manufacturing a machined product. [Background technology]

[0002] Drills described in Patent Documents 1 to 3 are known as rotary tools used for cutting workpieces such as metals. The drills described in Patent Documents 1 to 3 all have a discharge flute extending from the tip to the rear end. Chips generated at the tip flow through the discharge flute toward the rear end and are discharged to the outside. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 62-188313 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 03-142118 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 09-501109 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] If chips fly out from the tip end of a rotary tool (drill), they may damage the machined surface of the workpiece. Furthermore, if chips do not easily fly out from the rear end of the drill, they may become clogged. Therefore, it is desirable that chips are difficult to discharge from the tip end of the drill, but are easily discharged from the rear end of the drill.

[0005] For example, the drills described in Patent Documents 1 to 3 do not solve the above problems because the radial rake and heel angles disclosed in each embodiment are set (see Figure 3 of Patent Document 1, Figure 3 of Patent Document 2, Figure 3 of Patent Document 3, etc.). [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] A non-limiting one-sided rotary tool disclosed herein has a rod shape extending from a front end to a rear end along a rotation axis, and includes a cutting edge located near the front end, a discharge groove extending from the cutting edge toward the rear end, a first outer peripheral surface adjacent to the discharge groove at a front end in the rotation direction of the rotation axis, and a second outer peripheral surface adjacent to the discharge groove at a rear end in the rotation direction. The discharge groove has a first region located near the front end and a second region located near the rear end. In a first cross section passing through the first region and perpendicular to the rotation axis, the angle formed by the discharge groove and the first outer peripheral surface is an acute angle, and the angle formed by the discharge groove and the second outer peripheral surface is an acute angle. In a second cross section passing through the second region and perpendicular to the rotation axis, the angle formed by the discharge groove and the first outer peripheral surface is an acute angle, and the angle formed by the discharge groove and the second outer peripheral surface is an obtuse angle. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] In the above-described drill, chips are difficult to discharge to the outside at the tip end side, but chips are easy to discharge to the outside at the rear end side. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0009] Hereinafter, a rotary tool according to an embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. For ease of explanation, the drawings referred to below show only the main components constituting the embodiment in a simplified form. Therefore, the rotary tool may include any components not shown in the drawings referred to in this specification. Furthermore, the dimensions of the components in the drawings do not faithfully represent the actual dimensions of the components and the dimensional ratios of the components. While the rotary tool shown in this embodiment is a drill, the configuration of the rotary tool shown in this embodiment may also be applied to a reamer or an end mill, for example.

[0010] 1, the drill 1 of this embodiment has a substantially cylindrical body 3 that extends along a rotation axis O1 from a front end 3A to a rear end 3B. The body 3 can perform drilling while rotating in a rotation direction O2 around the rotation axis O1.

[0011] 1, the main body 3 has a cutting portion 5 located on the front end 3A side and a shank portion 7 located on the rear end 3B side of the cutting portion 5. There are no particular limitations on the shapes of the cutting portion and the shank portion, but since the main body in this embodiment has a substantially cylindrical shape, the cutting portion and the shank portion also have a substantially cylindrical shape.

[0012] The cutting portion 5 includes a portion that comes into contact with a workpiece, and this portion plays a major role in cutting the workpiece. The shank portion 7 is a portion that is gripped by a rotating spindle or the like in a machine tool, and may be designed according to the shape of the spindle.

[0013] The outer diameter of the cutting portion 5 of the embodiment can be set to, for example, 8 mm to 33 mm. Furthermore, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, when the drill depth of the drill 1 of the embodiment is LA and the outer diameter (machining diameter) is D, the relationship between LA and D in the main body 3 of the embodiment can be set to, for example, LA / D = 1.5 to 12. In the example shown in Figures 1 and 2, the drill depth LA refers to the length of the portion of the cutting portion that extends from the front end 3A of the drill 1 toward the rear end 3B and has a diameter smaller than the machining diameter D.

[0014] The cutting portion 5 has a cutting edge 9, a discharge groove 11, and an outer peripheral surface 13. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the cutting edge 9 is located on the side of the tip 3A of the main body 3. The cutting edge 9 is generally called a tip edge. The discharge groove 11 is a groove that extends from the cutting edge 9 toward the rear end 3B. The outer peripheral surface 13 is a surface located on the outer periphery of the cutting portion 5.

[0015] 2 is a plan view of the drill 1 viewed from a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis O1, which may be referred to as a side view, and FIG. 3 is a plan view of the drill 1 viewed from the direction in which the rotation axis O1 extends, which may be referred to as a front view.

[0016] The cutting edge 9 is provided to cut a workpiece. As shown in Fig. 3, the cutting edge 9 extends from the rotation axis O1 side toward the outer peripheral surface 13 side. Here, as shown in Fig. 3, when the cutting portion 5 has multiple cutting edges 9, one of the multiple cutting edges 9 is designated as a first cutting edge 9A, and the cutting edge 9 located rearward of the first cutting edge 9A in the rotation direction O2 is designated as a second cutting edge 9B.

[0017] The drill 1 shown in this embodiment is a so-called indexable drill composed of a holder and an insert, but the drill disclosed herein is not limited to a throw-away drill, and may also be a so-called solid drill in which the holder and insert are integrally formed.

[0018] The discharge grooves 11, commonly called flutes, are provided to discharge chips toward the rear end 3B. Therefore, the surface located on the rear side in the rotation direction O2 generally slopes rearward in the rotation direction O2 as it approaches the rear end 3B. In the example shown in Fig. 1, the discharge grooves 11 extend from the cutting edge 9 toward the rear end 3B in a twisted manner around the rotation axis O1, but they may also extend straight.

[0019] Note that extending in a twisted manner means that the discharge groove 11 extends in a spiral shape from the cutting edge 9 toward the rear end 3B, as shown in Fig. 1. The discharge groove 11 may have a portion that is not twisted. When the discharge groove 11 extends in a twisted manner, the twist angle of the discharge groove 11 is not limited to a specific value and can be set to, for example, about 10° to 35°.

[0020] 2, when the cutting portion 5 has a plurality of discharge grooves, the one extending from the first cutting edge 9A toward the rear end 3B is referred to as the first discharge groove 11A, and the one extending from the second cutting edge 9B toward the rear end 3B is referred to as the second discharge groove 11B. For convenience of explanation, unless otherwise specified, the discharge groove 11 described below refers to the first discharge groove 11A in this embodiment.

[0021] The outer peripheral surface 13 is a surface region located at the outer edge of the cutting portion 5. In the drill 1 of this embodiment, the outer peripheral surface 13 in a cross section perpendicular to the rotation axis O1 has an arc shape. The cutting portion 5 has a first outer peripheral surface 13A and a second outer peripheral surface 13B as the outer peripheral surface 13. The first outer peripheral surface 13A is located forward of the discharge groove 11 in the rotation direction O2 of the rotation axis O1 and adjacent to the discharge groove 11. The second outer peripheral surface 13B is located rearward of the discharge groove 11 in the rotation direction O2 of the rotation axis O1 and adjacent to the discharge groove 11.

[0022] 3, the first outer peripheral surface 13A and the second outer peripheral surface 13B are located on two outer peripheral surfaces separated by the first discharge groove 11A and the second discharge groove 11B, respectively. On the other hand, for example, if the cutting part 5 has only one discharge groove 11, the first outer peripheral surface 13A and the second outer peripheral surface 13B may be located on the same outer peripheral surface.

[0023] When the cutting part 5 has one or more cutting edges 9, the number of discharge grooves 11 and outer peripheral surfaces 13 in the cutting part 5 may correspond to the number of cutting edges 9. In the example shown in Figures 2 and 3, the number of cutting edges 9 is two, and the number of discharge grooves 11 and outer peripheral surfaces 13 is also two. The cutting part 5 may have three or more cutting edges 9, three or more discharge grooves 11 and three or more outer peripheral surfaces 13.

[0024] 2, the drill 1 shown in this embodiment has a cutting edge 9, a discharge flute 11, and an outer peripheral surface 13 that are rotationally symmetric about the rotation axis O1, specifically, 180° rotationally symmetric about the rotation axis O1. However, the cutting edge 9, the discharge flute 11, and the outer peripheral surface 13 may also be asymmetric about the rotation axis O1.

[0025] The discharge groove 11 has a first region 15 located on the side of the front end 3A and a second region 17 located on the side of the rear end 3B. Here, the first region 15 refers to a region of the discharge groove 11 located at a position moved by 0 to (LB / 6) from the front end S1 toward the rear end 3B, when the length from the end (front end S1) located on the front end 3A side of the outer peripheral surface 13 to the end (rear end S2) located on the rear end 3B side of the workable depth LA in the direction in which the rotation axis O1 extends is LB, and the second region 17 refers to a region of the discharge groove 11 located at a position moved by 0 to (LB / 6) from the rear end S2 toward the front end 3A. This refers to the area of ​​the discharge groove 11 located at the position where the discharge groove 11 is located.

[0026] 2, the discharge groove 11 may have a portion on the rear end 3B side where the width in the circumferential direction of the rotation axis O1 decreases from the front end 3A toward the rear end 3B. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, the rear end portion S2 refers to the end portion located on the rear end 3B side excluding that portion.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 2, the IV-IV section and the VV section respectively indicate a section at a point moved by LB / 8 from the tip end S1 toward the rear end 3B side and a section at a point moved by LB / 8 from the rear end S2 toward the tip end 3A side.

[0028] 4 is a view of a cross section perpendicular to the rotation axis O1 in the first region 15, i.e., a first cross section, and FIG. 5 is a view of a cross section perpendicular to the rotation axis O1 in the second region 17, i.e., a second cross section.

[0029] Here, when the point where the Nth outer peripheral surface 13T and the discharge groove 11 meet on the Mth cross section is defined as a contact point PMN, a line passing through the contact point PMN and tangent to the Nth outer peripheral surface 13T is defined as a virtual straight line JMN, and a line passing through the contact point PMN and tangent to the discharge groove 11 is defined as a virtual extension line KMN, the angle formed by the virtual straight line JMN and the virtual extension line KMN is expressed as θMN. Note that M is an integer between 1 and 3, and N is 1 or 2. Furthermore, T is A when N=1, and B when N=2.

[0030] The cutting portion 5 may have a chamfered surface between the outer peripheral surface 13 and the discharge groove 11. In this case, θMN may be defined by setting the point where the outer peripheral surface 13 and the chamfered surface meet on the imaginary straight line JMN as the tangent point PMN, and setting the point where the discharge groove 11 and the chamfered surface meet on the imaginary extension line KMN as the tangent point PMN.

[0031] In the first cross section, the angle between the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A is an acute angle, and the angle between the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B is also an acute angle. Here, if the above angles cannot be uniquely identified in the first cross section because the discharge groove 11 or the outer peripheral surface 13 has an arc shape, the angle may be evaluated by the angle θ11 between the imaginary line J11 and the imaginary extension line K11 and / or the angle θ12 between the imaginary line J12 and the imaginary extension line K12. In the example shown in FIG. 4, θ11 corresponds to the angle between the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A, and θ12 corresponds to the angle between the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B. In the example shown in FIG. 4, both θ11 and θ12 are acute angles.

[0032] In the second cross section, the angle between the discharge groove and the first outer peripheral surface is an acute angle, and the angle between the discharge groove and the second outer peripheral surface is an obtuse angle. Here, if the angle cannot be uniquely identified because the discharge groove 11 or the outer peripheral surface 13 is arc-shaped in the second cross section, the angle may be evaluated by the angle θ21 between the imaginary line J21 and the imaginary extension line K21 and / or the angle θ22 between the imaginary line J22 and the imaginary extension line K22. In the example shown in FIG. 5, θ21 corresponds to the angle between the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A, and θ22 corresponds to the angle between the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B. In the example shown in FIG. 5, θ21 is an acute angle, and θ22 is an obtuse angle.

[0033] For ease of explanation, in the drill 1 of this embodiment, the angle (θ12 to θ32) between the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B will be called the radial rake, and the angle (θ11 to θ31) between the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A will be called the heel angle.

[0034] When drilling a deep hole using a rotary tool (drill 1), Since the part is located inside the machined hole, if chips fly out from the tip 3A side of the drill 1, there is a high possibility that the chips will collide with the inner wall surface (machined surface) of the machined hole, possibly damaging the machined surface. Therefore, it is desirable that the radial rake of the discharge flute 11 be acute-angled on the tip 3A side of the drill 1 so that chips do not fly out.

[0035] On the other hand, if chips are difficult to eject to the outside, there is a risk of chip clogging at the rear end 3B side of the drill 1. Therefore, it is desirable that the radial rake of the discharge flute 11 at the rear end 3B side of the rotary tool has an obtuse angle so that chips can be easily discharged to the outside.

[0036] In addition, it is desirable that the heel angle of the discharge flute 11 be an acute angle on the side of the rear end 3B of the drill 1. This is because the rear part of the discharge flute 11 in the rotation direction O2 rotates toward the front part of the rotation direction O2, and therefore, when chips are discharged from the front part of the discharge flute 11 in the rotation direction O2, the chips may collide with the rear part of the discharge flute 11 in the rotation direction O2.

[0037] In the drill 1 of this embodiment, in the first cross section, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A is an acute angle, and the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B is an acute angle, and in the second cross section, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A is an acute angle, and the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B is an obtuse angle.

[0038] By virtue of the above-described configuration, the drill 1 has excellent performance in that chips are less likely to be discharged to the outside from the tip 3A side of the drill 1, and more easily discharged to the outside from the rear end 3B side of the drill 1.

[0039] Note that the angles θ11, θ12, θ21, and θ22 are not limited to any particular value. For example, the angle θ11 can be set to 45 to 75°. The angle θ12 can be set to 30 to 60°. The angle θ21 can be set to 15 to 45°. The angle θ22 can be set to 90 to 120°.

[0040] The cutting part 5 may further have a third region 19 located between the first region 15 and the second region 17. Here, the third region 19 refers to a region of the discharge groove 11 at the midpoint between the positions of the first cross section and the second cross section in the direction in which the rotation axis O1 extends. In the example shown in Fig. 2, the VI-VI cross section represents a cross section at a position moved by D / 2 from the front end S1 toward the rear end 3B.

[0041] 6 is a view of a cross section perpendicular to the rotation axis in the third region, i.e., a third cross section. In the third cross section, the angle formed by the discharge groove and the first outer peripheral surface may be an acute angle. In the third cross section, the angle formed by the discharge groove and the second outer peripheral surface may be an acute angle or an obtuse angle.

[0042] Here, in the third cross section, if the above angle cannot be uniquely identified because the discharge groove 11 or the outer peripheral surface 13 has an arc shape, the angle may be evaluated by the angle θ31 formed by the imaginary line J31 and the imaginary extension line K31 and / or the angle θ32 formed by the imaginary line J32 and the imaginary extension line K32. In the example shown in Figure 6, θ31 corresponds to the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A, and θ32 corresponds to the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B. In the example shown in Figure 6, θ31 is an acute angle, and θ32 is an acute angle.

[0043] In the cutting portion 5, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B may increase from the first cross section toward the second cross section. Here, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B increasing from the first cross section toward the second cross section does not necessarily have to continue to increase strictly, and it is sufficient if θ12<θ32<θ22.

[0044] In the cutting portion 5, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B may increase at a constant rate from the first cross section to the second cross section. Here, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B increasing at a constant rate from the first cross section to the second cross section is sufficient if (((θ22-θ12) / 2)+θ12-5°)<θ32<(((θ22-θ12) / 2)+θ12+5°).

[0045] In the above case, the angle between the discharge groove 11 and the second outer surface 13B increases toward the rear end 3B of the drill 1, where chip clogging is more likely to occur, allowing the drill 1 to have better chip discharge properties, thereby reducing the risk of damaging the machined surface.

[0046] In the cutting portion 5, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A in the first cross section may be larger than the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A in the second cross section. Furthermore, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A may increase from the second cross section toward the first cross section. Here, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A increasing from the second cross section toward the first cross section does not necessarily have to continue to increase in the strict sense; it is sufficient if θ21<θ31<θ11.

[0047] In the cutting portion 5, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A may increase at a constant rate from the second cross section to the first cross section. Here, the angle formed by the discharge groove 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A increasing at a constant rate from the second cross section to the first cross section is sufficient if (((θ11-θ21) / 2)+θ21-5°)<θ31<(((θ11-θ21) / 2)+θ21+5°).

[0048] In the above case, if the angle between the discharge flute 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A is large while the angle between the discharge flute 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B is small on the side of the tip 3A of the drill 1, it is possible to suppress discharge of chips to the outside while increasing the durability of the drill 1 by ensuring the thickness of the drill 1. Furthermore, if the angle between the discharge flute 11 and the second outer peripheral surface 13B is large on the side of the rear end 3B of the drill 1 while the angle between the discharge flute 11 and the first outer peripheral surface 13A is small, it is possible to more efficiently discharge chips from the rear side of the discharge flute 11 in the rotational direction O2.

[0049] The angles θ31 and θ32 are not limited to specific values. For example, the angle θ31 can be set to 30 to 60°. The angle θ32 can be set to 60 to 90°.

[0050] No. 1 Area 15 is In the first cross section, The entire shape may be a concave curve. No. 2 Area 17 is In the second cross section, The second region 17 in the second cross section may have a first portion 21 connected to the first outer peripheral surface 13B. The first portion 21 may have a concave curved shape. The second region 17 in the second cross section may have a second portion 23 connected to the second outer peripheral surface 13B and the first portion 21. The second portion 23 may have a linear shape.

[0051] In the above case, the entire first region 15 located on the side of the tip 3A of the drill 1 has a concave curved shape, so that chips can be received by the concave curved portion of the discharge flute 11, thereby reducing the risk of chips flying out on the side of the tip 3A of the drill 1. In addition, the second region 17 located on the side of the rear end 3B of the drill 1 has the second portion 23 which is linear, so that chips that collide with the second portion 13 can be easily discharged to the outside from the rear end side in the rotation direction of the discharge flute 11, thereby improving chip discharge performance on the side of the rear end 3B of the drill 1.

[0052] The third region 19 in the third cross section has a third portion 25 connected to the first outer peripheral surface 13A. The third region 25 may have a concave curved shape. The third region 25 in the third cross section may have a fourth region 27 connected to the second outer peripheral surface 13B and the first region 21. The fourth region 27 may have a linear shape. In the example shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 , the length L2 of the second region 23 may be longer than the length L4 of the fourth region 27. The length L3 of the third region 25 may be longer than the length L1 of the first region 21.

[0053] In the above case, the second portion 23 is relatively long, which improves chip discharge performance on the side of the rear end 3B of the drill 1. In addition, the third portion 25 is relatively long, which reduces the risk of chips flying out on the side of the tip 3A of the drill 1.

[0054] Examples of the material of the insert attached to the main body 3 include cemented carbide and cermet. Examples of cemented carbide compositions include WC-Co, WC-TiC-Co, and WC-TiC-TaC-Co. Here, WC, TiC, and TaC are hard particles, and Co is a binder phase. Cermet is a sintered composite material in which a ceramic component is combined with a metal. Specifically, examples of cermet include titanium compounds whose main component is titanium carbide (TiC) or titanium nitride (TiN). In the case of a solid drill, the material of the cutting part 5 may be cemented carbide.

[0055] The surface of the insert attached to the main body 3 may be coated with a film using a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method or a physical vapor deposition (PVD) method. Examples of the coating composition include titanium carbide (TiC), titanium nitride (TiN), titanium carbonitride (TiCN), and alumina (Al2O3). In the case of a solid drill, the cutting portion 5 may be coated with a film using a physical vapor deposition (PVD) method.

[0056] <Method of manufacturing machined products> Next, a method for manufacturing a machined product according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail using the drill 1 according to the above embodiment as an example. The following description will be given with reference to FIGS.

[0057] A method for manufacturing a machined product according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: (1) a step of rotating the drill 1 around a rotation axis O1; (2) bringing the cutting edge 9 of the rotating drill 1 into contact with the workpiece 100; (3) The step of separating the drill 1 from the workpiece 100.

[0058] More specifically, first, as shown in FIG. 7, the drill 1 is rotated around the rotation axis O1 and moved in a direction along the rotation axis O1 (Y1 direction), thereby bringing the drill 1 relatively closer to the workpiece 100.

[0059] Next, as shown in Fig. 8, the cutting edge 9 of the drill 1 is brought into contact with the workpiece 100 to cut the workpiece 100. Then, as shown in Fig. 9, the drill 1 is moved relatively away from the workpiece 100 by moving the drill 1 in the Y2 direction.

[0060] In the embodiment, the drill 1 is moved closer to the workpiece 100 while the workpiece 100 is fixed and rotated around the rotation axis O1. In addition, in Fig. 8, the cutting edge 9 of the rotating drill 1 is brought into contact with the workpiece 100 to cut the workpiece 100. In addition, in Fig. 9, the drill 1 is moved away from the workpiece 100 while rotating.

[0061] In the cutting process using the manufacturing method according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the drill 1 is moved in each step to bring the drill 1 into contact with the workpiece 100, or , the drill 1 is separated from the workpiece 100. Of course, the present invention is not limited to this configuration.
