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.

A drill structure includes a shank part and a flute part arranged on one end of the shank part. A chisel edge is formed on the front end of the flute part and two drill blades with tilt directions toward the shank part are symmetrically formed on the two sides of the chisel edge. Every drill blade includes: a primary relief surface with a cutting edge, a first connecting edge and a first chamfering edge, a secondary relief surface with a knife-back edge, a second connecting edge, a second chamfering edge and an outer edge, and an assist relief surface. The second connecting edge joins to the first connecting edge, and the second chamfering edge connects with the first chamfering edge. The assist relief surface, which tilts toward the shank part the, is extend from the first chamfering edge and the second chamfering edge. This drill structure can improve the surface finish of the drilling hole.

A drill includes a tip cutting edge provided at a tip end thereof and a main cutting edge continuous to a rearward of the tip cutting edge. A point angle of the tip cutting edge is a predetermined acute angle. A point angle of the main cutting edge decreases from a front end toward a rear end of the main cutting edge. A point angle at the front end of the main cutting edge is an acute angle greater than the point angle of the tip cutting edge.

A metal drilling tool comprising includes a middle axis, a front side and an opposite end, with at least two cutting edges arranged in a region of the front side, a first free surface being associated with each cutting edge. The at least two cutting edges lie on an imaginary first conical surface arranged concentrically in relation to the middle axis, with a first conical angle that opens up towards the opposite end and reaches a maximum of 180. A centering section includes at least three edges, at least three side surfaces and an imaginary base surface. At least two of the edges lie on an imaginary second conical surface which is arranged concentrically in relation to the middle axis and has a second conical angle that opens up towards the opposite end. The second conical angle is smaller than the first conical angle, such that the imaginary second conical surface, seen from the opposite end, projects opposite the front surface.

Proposed is a drilling tool for drilling workpieces, having a tool tip and a basic body and a core, wherein the basic body has at least one main groove as at least one helical depression, for the purpose of realizing a conveying helix in each case. For the purpose of prolonging the service life, the core, in a first portion that starts at the tool tip and/or extends to the tool tip, has a constant cross-sectional area perpendicular to the axis of rotation and, in an adjoining second portion, counter to the direction of advance, has a cross-sectional area that increases, at least in portions.

The invention relates to a rotary tool (2), comprising: a main blade (4), a chip flute (6), a lateral surface (8), and a flank (10) trailing after the main blade (4), wherein the flank (10) first drops off proceeding from the main blade (4) and then rises again, such that a sink (12) is formed, to which a ridge (14) adjoins, which reaches up to the lateral surface (8) and the chip flute (6). The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing a rotary tool (2).

A drill bit for drilling into masonry or rock includes a drilling head at its forward end, a clamping shank at its rearward end, and a helical conveying portion extending between the drilling head and the shank. The helical conveying portion includes at least two helically extending flutes separated by at least two helically extending webs. The helical conveying portion has a changeover portion, a pre-changeover portion between the drilling head and the changeover portion, and a post-changeover portion between the changeover portion and the shank. In the pre-changeover portion, the flutes have a pre-changeover pitch, the first web has a first pre-changeover web width , and the second web has a second pre-changeover web width . In the post-changeover portion, the flutes have a post-changeover pitch, the first web has a first post-changeover web width , and the second web has a second post-changeover web width . The post-changeover pitch is greater than the pre-changeover pitch, the first post-changeover web width is less than the first pre-changeover web width , and the second post-changeover web width is greater than the second pre-changeover web width .

A drill including: a chip discharge groove formed in an outer periphery of an edge portion serving as a leading end side portion of a drill body; and a cutting edge formed in an intersecting edge between a rake surface of a leading end side region and a leading end flank of the edge portion. The drill having a margin portion, a shoulder portion and a web thinning portion. The cutting edge includes, in order from a rotation center, first cutting edge, second cutting edge, shoulder cutting edge, and margin cutting edge portions. Honing widths of the second cutting edge, the margin cutting edge, and the shoulder cutting edge portions satisfy a relation represented by expression (1), as follows: honing width of the shoulder cutting edge portion>honing width of the margin cutting edge portionhoning width of the second cutting edge portion.

A drill bit includes an elongated shaft having an outer surface forming plural lands and spaces between the lands forming a helical flute; a shank located at a first end of the elongated shaft, the shank configured and arranged to engage the drill bit in a tool; a head located at an opposing end of the elongated shaft from the shank, the head including a first cutting arm and a second cutting arm, the first cutting arm including a first cutting portion having a first leading cutting edge, the second cutting arm including a second cutting portion having a second leading cutting edge; and wherein the first cutting arm includes a first groove extending through the first leading cutting edge and the second arm includes a second groove extending through the second leading cutting, the first and second grooves configured to cause shorter fibers, shavings or chips.

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.
