A drill bit rotatable about a rotation axis is disclosed. The drill bit has a first drill bit portion configured as a cutting portion and has an annular portion connected at one end to one or more cutting elements and, at another end, a first connection device. The drill bit has a second drill bit portion configured as a drilling shank portion and has a cylindrical drill shaft, which on one end has a second connection device. The first and second connection devices in a connected state form a detachable connection, and a force transmission and torque transmission occur from the drill shaft portion to the cutting portion. The cutting portion has a third connection device, and the drill shaft portion has a fourth connection device.

The present invention relates to a rotary cutting tool assembly comprising a toolholder which has a central tool holding receptacle, and a cutting tool which has a holding projection that can be detachably held in the tool holding receptacle and via which the cutting tool is secured to and radially centered on the tool, wherein the holding projection has at its free end a pin-like, first centering section and an adjoining externally threaded section, wherein the holding projection ends in a radially outwardly projecting shoulder having an end face abutment surface, and the tool holding receptacle has an internally threaded section for receiving the externally threaded section and a first centering seat section which is positioned deeper within the tool holding receptacle and in which the centering section of the cutting tool is held.

The coupling part, in particular cutting head for a drilling tool for the interchangeable fastening in a coupling receptacle, has a coupling pin which is enclosed by a head support surface, wherein the coupling pin has a plurality of types of functional surfaces, namely stop surfaces for transmitting a torque between the cutting head and the carrier, and clamping surfaces for centering and clamping the cutting head in the coupling receptacle. The coupling pin has an axially front pin region and an adjoining, axially rear pin region, and the clamping surfaces and the stop surfaces are arranged in different pin regions. This decoupling and distribution of the functional surfaces to the various pin regions permits simpler production of the coupling pin and an overall more robust configuration.

The modular carrier tool (2), in particular drilling tool, extends along a central longitudinal axis (4) in axial direction (6) and comprises a carrier (8) as well as a tool head (10) that can be reversibly mounted on the front-end of the carrier (8). The carrier (8) has a head retainer (14) for the insertion of the tool head (10) as well as clamping webs (24), which radially delimit the head retainer (14) and also have bearing surfaces (28). The tool head (10) comprises clamping surfaces (35) extending in axial direction as well as underhead bearing surfaces (34). In a mounted state the clamping webs (24) clamp the tool head (10) in radial direction to the clamping surfaces (35) and the underhead bearing surfaces (34) are pressed against the bearing surfaces (28). In order to generate a force component (K) acting in radial direction unto the clamping webs (24), the bearing surfaces (28) as well as the underhead bearing surfaces (34) are tilted in radial direction towards the central longitudinal axis (4) by a tilt angle . This particularly supports the radially exerted clamping force of the elastic clamping webs (24).

There is provided a drilling assembly and drill insert for producing holes in metal workpieces, wherein the drill insert body has a cutting end. The cutting end comprises at least two cutting lips formed transverse to each other. A web is formed between the two cutting lips, and each of the two cutting lips includes a cutting edge segment and at least one chip breaker. The chip breaker comprises at least one step in the cutting lip to produce a radial discontinuity in the cutting edge segment of the cutting lip for producing chips during machining which are of a width that is sufficiently reduced to allow proper evacuation from the hole produced thereby.

The rotary tool comprises a support and a cutting head which can be inserted into a pin receptacle of the support via a coupling pin. The support and the cutting head have mutually corresponding surface sections for transferring a radial clamping force and have mutually corresponding torque sections for transferring torque. For an axial pull-out stop device, effective stop surfaces are formed on the pin receptacle and on the coupling pin in the axial direction, wherein, to do this, a stop element is formed, the radial extension of which is smaller than or equal to a radial extension (r.sub.2) of the surface sections of the coupling pin and wherein the stop surfaces and the surface section are offset relative to each other in the circumferential direction.

A quick change system for rotary tools is disclosed, particularly hole saws. The system includes an elongate shank and a tool adapter for coupling a rotary tool to the shank. The quick change system includes a rotation blocking, a first axial blocking which can be operated and a second axial blocking which cannot be operated. A shank and a tool adapter for the purpose of forming a quick change system for rotary tools are also disclosed.

A rotary cutting tool with a shank and an interchangeable cutting tip, wherein the shank includes a pocket which receives the interchangeable cutting tip via an interference fit. The pocket includes two centering wall portions which, when viewed along a central longitudinal axis, are oriented at a first angle with respect to one another, the first angle being greater than zero. The interchangeable cutting tip is axially displaceable between: an initial position, assumed upon being received in the pocket of the shank; a clamped position, wherein the interchangeable cutting tip is fixedly held with respect to the shank; and a bump-off position, wherein the interchangeable cutting tip is not fixedly held. A holding element holds the interchangeable cutting tip in the clamped position, and a bump-off element displaces the interchangeable cutting tip between the clamped position and the bump-off position. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.

A cutting head for a cutting tool includes a cutting portion and a shank portion. The cutting portion has a plurality of integrally formed cutting edges and the shank portion has a first end adjacent the cutting portion and a second end. The first portion of the shank portion is closer to the first end of the shank portion than the second and third portions of the shank portion and the third portion of the shank portion is disposed closer to the second end of the shank portion than the first and second portions. The first portion of the shank portion has an exterior surface including at least one axially extending recess extending from an end of the first portion closest to the second portion toward the first end of the shank portion. The cutting head is formed of a pressed and sintered cemented carbide material.

A tool for machining a workpiece. The tool comprises a first tool component which comprises a first internal coolant bore and, on a first face side end, a first connection interface, wherein the first connection interface comprises a first end face for attaching a joining material as well as an elevation which protrudes from the first end face, wherein a first coolant outlet of the first internal coolant bore is arranged on the elevation. In addition, the tool comprises a second tool component which comprises a second internal coolant bore and, on a second face side end, a second connection interface, wherein the second connection interface comprises a second end face for attaching the joining material as well as a recess provided in the second end face, wherein a second coolant outlet of the second internal coolant bore is arranged in the recess. The first tool component and the second tool component are joined together by means of the joining material attached to the first and second end face in such a manner that the first coolant outlet is aligned with the second coolant outlet.
