ROTARY CUTTING INSERT AND TOOL HAVING AXIAL LOCKING MEMBER
A cutting insert for a rotary drill tool and drill tool assembly in which an insert and a support body are coupled axially via a complementary shaped projection extending radially outward from the insert and received with a recess indented at a radially inward facing surface of the support body.
TOOL TIP
A tool tip is integral with or removably secured to a tool body and configured to machine a metal object. The tool tip has a tool tip diameter, a rotational axis and at least one coolant duct. The tool tip includes at least one major cutting edge formed at an intersection of a rake face and a first major flank. The rake face forms part of a chip flute. The coolant duct is configured to be in flow communication with discharge orifices located exclusively in the tool tip. The tool tip has an arrangement, such as a row of two or more discharge orifices located exclusively in the rake face of a major cutting edge. The arrangement extends at a non-zero angle relative to the rotational axis.
ROTARY CUTTING INSERT AND TOOL HAVING DECLINED AXIAL SUPPORT SURFACES
A cutting insert for a rotary drill tool and drill tool assembly in which an insert and a support body are coupled via a plurality of axial support surfaces. The support surfaces include a first declined orientation in the axial direction and a second declined orientation in the circumferential direction, so as to manage and control transmission of loading forces at the region of mounting the insert at the support body.
HOLE SAW ARBOR
A hole saw arbor with mechanically automated plug removal to automatically remove the center plug of debris following drilling with the hole saw. A slidable collar is placed in an upper position on a threaded shaft to drill with the hole saw, and slid to a lower position on the threaded shaft for automated function of an ejection plate to rise within the hole saw to slowly eject a plug of removed material.
Accessory tool
An accessory tool includes an adapter end having a maximum outer dimension, and a shank coupled to the adapter end. The shank includes a tool engagement portion including a cross section having a maximum outer width, a first reduced portion disposed between the tool engagement portion and the adapter end and having a first minimum outer dimension and a first length, and a second reduced portion formed in the tool engagement portion between the first reduced portion and an end of the shank. The second reduced portion is engaged by the tool to secure the shank to the tool, and has a second minimum outer dimension and a second length. The maximum outer dimension is greater than the maximum outer width. The maximum outer width is greater than the first minimum outer dimension and greater the second minimum outer dimension. The first length is greater than the second length.
ROTARY CUTTING TOOL WITH TUNABLE VIBRATION ABSORBER ASSEMBLY FOR SUPPRESSING TORSIONAL VIBRATION
A rotary cutting tool includes a tool body including a chip flute portion having a plurality of helical chip flutes separated by lobes. In one aspect, a tunable vibration absorber assembly is disposed within a cavity formed in the chip flute portion. In another aspect, the tunable vibration absorber assembly is disposed within a cavity of a replaceable cutting head. In each aspect, the tunable vibration absorber assembly includes one or more tunable absorber masses, a resilient material between the one or more absorber masses and the cavity, and one or more connecting members for preventing relative angular displacement of the one or more tunable absorber masses. The one or more tunable absorber masses are suspended only by the resilient material, thereby enabling the tunable vibration absorber assembly to be tuned to a desired frequency for suppressing torsional vibration of the rotary cutting tool during a cutting operation.
Multifunction drill bit with a replaceable tip
A multifunction drill bit includes an outer shank including an outer lock head, an outer shank body, and an axial hole wherein spiral grooves are on the outer shank body; from a joining portion of the outer shank body and the outer lock head to the outer lock head, a threaded section, a deformable section, and a guide section are provided; each of the threaded and deformable sections include first external threads; the deformable section has outer curved grooves; a deformable concave surface is on an inner surface of the deformable section; and first internal threads are on the guide section; and an inner shank in the axial hole and including a top socket, an inner lock head, and an inner shank body. Second external threads are on an inner surface of the guide section corresponding to the first internal threads. A tip of the drill bit is replaceable.
RING-SAW ASSEMBLIES AND PROCESSES
Hole-saws are provided herein, and more specifically to hole-saw assemblies and processes having adjustable platters for multiple simultaneous saw components, optional elimination of a guide drill, and the ability to retrieve cores of a sawed work piece before sawing completely through the workpiece. One hole-saw device, may have a motive force; a base plate rotatable by the motive force; cutters; and locking mechanisms to mount the base plate to the cutters.
Cutting head having torque transmission surfaces on a mounting protuberance and rotary cutting tool having such cutting head
A cutting head rotatable about a head axis, has a cap portion and a mounting protuberance joined thereto and extending axially rearwardly therefrom. The mounting protuberance has a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart torque portions axially offset from a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart clamping portions. The clamping portions have clamping surfaces circumscribed by an imaginary clamping circle with a clamping diameter. The torque portions have torque protrusions and torque cut-outs, each torque protrusion having a torque transmission surface at least partially located outside an imaginary clamping cylinder defined by the imaginary clamping circle, and each torque cut-out having a recessed surface located inside the imaginary clamping cylinder. The cutting head is releasably secured to a head receiving pocket of a tool shank, with each clamping surface contacting a corresponding abutment surface of the pocket, and each torque transmission surface contacting a corresponding drive surface of the pocket.
Tool bit replaceable rotary cutting tool and rotary cutting method and tool bit mounting method thereof
The present invention relates to a tool bit replaceable rotary cutting tool and a rotary cutting method and a tool bit mounting method thereof and belongs to the field of hole machining in the machining industry. At present, a twist drill for drilling is of an integrated structure, and when service life of a tool bit is exhausted, the whole drill is required to be replaced, so that cost is relatively high. For a tool bit replaceable drilling tool, in a drilling process, radial and axial acting forces on a tool bit are relatively strong and thus may cause the conditions of imprecise drilling caused by radial displacement of the tool bit at a joint and the like, a replaceable structure of the tool bit makes the joint of the tool bit of the drilling tool relatively weak and a design of a chip groove makes a substrate of the drilling tool weaker. According to the tool bit replaceable rotary cutting tool of the present invention, a tool bit is detachably connected with a tool bar, and V-shaped positioning surfaces are adopted for a joint of the tool bit and the tool bar, so that a good tool bit positioning and fixation effect is achieved, and the tool bit is unlikely to deviate; a design with different helical angles is adopted for a chip groove, so that strength of the tool bar is strengthened; due to design of cooling guide grooves, a cooling effect is improved; and the tool bit is easy to mount and dismount.
