Cutting tool
A cutting tool including a body, a blade, a feed shaft, and a locking member. The body defines an axis and is adapted to be received by a spindle of a power tool. The blade is removably supportable on the body and rotatable about the axis for cutting a workpiece. A feed shaft is removably supportable in the body and rotatable about the axis for engaging a workpiece, the feed shaft being mountable in the cutting tool to engage and at least partially restrain the blade. The feed shaft further includes an opening transverse to the axis. The locking member is engageable with the body and with the opening in the feed shaft. Advancement of the locking member into the opening tightens both the blade and the feed shaft to the body.
CUTTING TOOL
A cutting tool comprising at least one blade arranged at an axial cutting head end of a tool carrier. The tool carrier comprises a chip-removal space that receives material chips removed by the blade. In some embodiments, the blade is adjacent to a chip passage feeding into the chip-removal space, which passage is limited by a radial chip gap partially limited by the blade and from there by a first and second passage surface, the first passage surface a continuation of the chip surface of the blade, the second passage surface running at an angle and widening relative to same, and is closed and limited at least in an axial sub-section facing the cutting head end, all around by a peripheral wall as a third passage surface, wherein at least one coolant channel is formed within the peripheral wall, which is provided to guide coolant to the cutting head end.
Rotary tool
The rotary tool has two coupling parts, namely a carrier and a cutting head having a front end face. The carrier has a pin seat into which a coupling pin of the cutting head is inserted. Effective stop faces are formed on the pin seat and on the coupling pin in the axial direction for axial pull-out protection. For a design that is as simple as possible, in particular in terms of grinding, a side face adjoins a respective stop face of the coupling pin and, when viewed in the axial direction, freely extends to the end face. In particular, the side face forms a torque face. For reliable clamping attachment, in particular with larger nominal diameters (D), a separating slot is made in the carrier and a clamping screw is inserted into it, both of which serve to fix the cutting head in the pin seat.
CUTTING TOOL WITH PROTECTED JOINT
A cutting tool comprising: (a) a shank being configured to connect the cutting tool to machine; (b) a body connected to and extending from the shank, the body including: (i) a longitudinal axis; (ii) a plurality of flutes, (iii) one or more pockets located in one or more of the plurality of flutes; (iv) one or more shield substrates located in each of the one or more pockets; and (v) one or more joints connecting the one or more shield substrates to the one or more pockets, the one or more joints including a leading portion; (c) a tip connected to and extending from the body, the tip including a cutting surface that extends radially outward from the longitudinal axis a distance so that a clearance cut by the tip into a substrate is sufficiently large so that the leading portion of the one or more joints extends within the clearance.
Self-centering drill bit
A cutting tool is provided that is operable to provide a circular cut or hole in a material or work piece. In various embodiments, a guide member is provided that facilitates alignment of a cutting edge of the invention with a pre-existing cut, hole or aperture. Devices and methods of the present disclosure provide for quick and easy centering of a cutting tool in order to form an enlarged hole that is concentric with a pre-existing hole.
MACHINING SYSTEM AND CUTTING INSERT AND METHODS
There is provided a machining assembly and cutting insert for machining metal or like workpieces, wherein the cutting insert body has a cutting end. The cutting end comprises at least one cutting edge and at least one cutting lip formed adjacent the at least one cutting edge. The at least one cutting lip includes at least one cutting protrusion and associated chip cutting edge to split the chip formed by the at least one cutting edge, for producing chips during machining which are of a width that is sufficiently reduced to allow proper evacuation or removal.
SIDE-LOCK MODULAR DRILL WITH SPRING-ASSISTED BUMP-OFF
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 spring assembly which displaces the interchangeable cutting tip between the clamped position and the bump-off position. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.
DRILL BIT
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 .
MODULAR DRILL WITH ENHANCED BUMP-OFF CAPABILITY
A rotary cutting tool with enhanced bump-off capability is disclosed. The cutting tool includes a tool shank having a pocket. A replaceable cutting head is at least partially disposed within the pocket of the tool shank with an interference fit. A coupling pin assembly is at least partially received within a bore of the tool shank. The coupling pin assembly comprises a sleeve member and a coupling pin at least partially disposed within the sleeve member. The sleeve member includes an upper portion and a lower portion having a non-circular cross-sectional shape with a bump-off surface. An actuation screw contacts the coupling pin assembly and causes the replaceable cutting head to move relative to the tool shank. The bump-off surface of the lower portion of the sleeve member extends radially outward with respect to the coupling pin by a distance, D, thereby providing enhanced bump-off capability.
DRILL AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING MACHINED PRODUCT
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.
