For improving a drill, in particular a spiral drill, comprising a base body extending substantially longitudinally in a direction axial to a drill axis, said base body comprising a drilling portion, wherein a radially inward core region in relation to the drill axis and a radially outer region are provided in the base body in the drilling portion, and the drilling portion comprises a plurality of spiral-shaped recesses in the outer region, and arranged between each two spiral-shaped recesses is a wall part, it is proposed that the drill comprises at least four main cutting edges, in particular exactly four main cutting edge and/or the drill comprises at least three central cutting edge portions.

A drill according to a non-limiting aspect may have a body, a cutting edge, a rake face, and a groove. The cutting edge may have a curved chisel edge, a pair of first cutting edges, and a pair of second cutting edges. The second cutting edge may have a first portion extending from the chisel edge and a second portion extending from the first portion toward the first cutting edge. The rake face may have a first region extending from the first portion and a second region extending from the second portion. A first rake angle of the first region may be zero or a negative value. A second rake angle of the second region may be a negative value. An absolute value of the second rake angle may be greater than an absolute value of the first rake angle.

In this drill, a wall face of a chip removal groove includes a first wall face having a concave curve shape and a second wall face having a straight line shape in a cross section orthogonal to an axis of the drill main body, an extension line of a straight line of the second wall face extends in a direction opposite to a drill rotation direction as the straight line of the second wall face goes to an outer periphery side of the drill main body with respect to a radius line connecting an outer peripheral end of the second wall face and the axis with each other, the cutting edge includes a first cutting edge having a concave curve shape and a second cutting edge having a straight line shape which intersects with the first cutting edge at an obtuse angle.

A core drill bit 1 includes a tubular shaft 12, a mounting platform 31 provided on a proximal end of the tubular shaft 12 for mounting the core drill bit on a power tool 26, and an annular cutting section 2 provided with abrasive cutting segments 3 arranged at a distal end of the tubular shaft 12. A first transponder 24 is provided at the distal end of the tubular shaft 12. A repeater 28 is provided comprising a second transponder 29 at the proximal end of the tubular shaft 12, an antenna 33 facing the first transponder 24, and a wired connection 34 between the antenna 33 and the repeater 28.

A three-flute drill includes a body, discharge grooves, cutting edges, thinning edges and gash portions. The discharge grooves are provided in an outer peripheral surface of the body. The cutting edges are provided on ridge sections between inner faces of the discharge grooves and flanks of the body. The thinning edge extends from an end of the cutting edge toward a radially inner side. The gash portion includes an R portion and a straight portion. A first ridge line between the R portion and the flank extends while curving toward a rotation direction, from an end of the thinning edge toward a radially outer side. A second ridge line between the straight portion and the flank extends linearly from an end of the first ridge line toward the radially outer side, and connects to the discharge groove further to the radially inner side than the outer peripheral surface.

A drill includes a leading end portion. The leading end portion is flat and has at least two cutting blades extending from a rotation center toward outside in a radial direction. The each cutting blade includes an arc-shaped portion. An inside linear portion is formed in a linear shape and connects to one end of the arc-shaped portion on the rotation center side. An outside linear portion is formed in a linear shape and connects to another end of the arc-shaped portion on an opposite side to the one end. The arc-shaped portion has a cutting edge provided with an arc-shaped portion chamfered surface. The inside linear portion and the outside linear portion each has a cutting edge provided with a linear portion chamfered surface. A drill axis direction width of the arc-shaped portion chamfered surface is smaller than a drill axis direction width of the linear portion chamfered surface.

Orthopedic systems and methods for installing an implant and/or boring a bone bicortically. The system may include a drill having a proximal boring portion configured to bore a larger hole in a bone more efficiently when the drill rotates in a first direction compared to an opposite second direction, and a distal boring portion configured to bore a smaller hole in the bone more efficiently when the drill rotates in the second direction. The implant may be configured to be implanted at least partially in the bone, such that a first region of the implant is located in the larger hole and a second region of the implant is located in the smaller hole. In an exemplary method, the larger hole and the smaller hole may be bored in the bone's near cortex and far cortex, respectively, by a shaft and a nose of the drill rotated in opposite directions.

In this small-diameter drill bit, two cutting blades having main cutting blades, of which a difference between lengths are 0.04 mm or less, are formed on a tip of a double-margin drill bit body having a diameter of 2 mm or less and a margin length/diameter ratio of 3 or more. Two tip flank faces are formed such that a first extension line extending from a linear first intersecting ridgeline between a first tip flank face and a second tip flank face of one of the flank faces to the linear first intersecting ridgeline of the other flank face is located on a side in the drill bit rotation direction with respect to the other linear first intersecting ridgeline. A distance between the first extension line and the linear first intersecting ridgeline is in a range of 0.04 mm-0.08 mm.

Two discharge grooves (4) are formed in a drill (1). A cutting edge (5) is formed on a ridge section between an inner face (41) that faces a rotation direction (T) side of the discharge groove (4), and a flank (6). A thinning edge (7) is formed from an inner end (51) of the cutting edge (5) to the side of a chisel (9), by thinning processing, and further, a gash portion (8) is formed from an inner end (72) of the thinning edge (7), the gash portion extending in a circular arc shape and being connected to the discharge groove (4) further to an inner side in the radial direction than an outer peripheral surface (31). A circular arc groove (10) is formed in a section connecting a thinning face (71) and a gash face (81). The chips being cut by the thinning edge (7) are scooped up to the gash portion (8), are curled, and are discharged to the discharge groove (4). The chips are not likely to become caught by being provided with the circular arc groove (10). Since the gash portion (8) connects to the discharge groove (4) further to the inner peripheral side than the outer peripheral surface (31), the chips are cut relatively small.
