[0054] FIG. 10: a further configuration of the invention

[0055] FIG. 11: an embodiment modified from that of FIG. 10

[0056] FIG. 1 shows a first use of the invention, in which a cross bore 2 is arranged in a tubular workpiece 1, and the inner edge 3 of this cross bore 2 is to be deburred using the deburring tool 10 of the invention, wherein a deburring blade 9 angled obliquely outward from the longitudinal axis 50 of the deburring tool 10 is used for deburring the inner edge 3.

[0057] The tubular workpiece has a main bore 4, which is intersected by the cross bore 2, producing an inner edge 3, which is to be deburred, and an outer edge 6.

[0058] In a known manner, the tubular workpiece 1 has two opposing end faces 5a, 5b, and the deburring blade 9 is to be used for internal deburring of the interior inner edge 3, which is coincident with the tubular inner surface 18. The inner edge 3, which has the un-round interfering contours that are to be deburred, is therefore to be deburred using the deburring blade 9 according to the invention.

[0059] For purposes of clarity, the arrows 7, which represent only rotational positions of deburring tool 10, form various segments 8a, 8b, 8c and 8d, which are merely sector-like regions that result along the inner edge 3 to be deburred, and in the area of these segments, segment 8c represents the critical region, specifically the region in which the deburring blade 9 enters into a neutral position and can result in a break.

[0060] The critical segment 8c, in which deburring blade 9 reaches an undesirable position where it is susceptible to breakage applies only if deburring tool 10 is driven in a clockwise direction; if the deburring tool is driven in a counterclockwise direction, a different segment, specifically segment 8b, would be the critical segment that forms a contour on the periphery of inner edge 3 where the deburring blade 9 is at risk of breaking.

[0061] Deburring tool 10 consists substantially of an approximately cylindrical base body 12, on the one side of which a longitudinal groove 13 is arranged, in which a clamping strip 15 is secured with the help of screws 14 and securely clamps one end of a flexible spring 30, which will be described later.

[0062] The other end of flexible spring 30 acts on a blade holder 20, in which deburring blade 9 is clamped.

[0063] Also important for the method described in the following is that base body 12 has at its lower end an undercut 43 where the diameter of the base body is decreased, so that the base body transitions into a base body portion 16 in which the diameter is decreased. The base body portion 16 having a decreased diameter is the portion in which the blade holder 20 is arranged with deburring blade 9 secured thereto. Deburring blade 9 may be permanently arranged in blade holder 20 or may also be replaceable (see EP 2 671 656 A1).

[0064] By definition, this results in an interfering contour 36, because the inner wall 3 of cross bore 2 lies close to tubular inner surface 18.

[0065] The tubular wall 17 of the tubular workpiece 8 is defined by tubular inner wall 18.

[0066] FIG. 1a shows the view along the longitudinal axis of deburring tool 10 as a cross-section of the lower base body portion 16, where it is apparent that a blade holder 20 is held in base body portion 16 so as to be capable of rotating around a rotational axis, specifically around a blade bearing 27, wherein on one side of the blade holder 20 a securing pin 22 is arranged, which holds the deburring blade 9 securely clamped in blade holder 20.

[0067] Deburring blade 9 is embodied as a single-edge blade, with cutting edge 39 being shown on the bottom, and the forward-most portion of deburring blade 9 being formed by a sliding bearing 24, with which the deburring blade slides along the tubular inner surface 18 of workpiece 1.

[0068] FIG. 1a shows the collision case that is to be avoided according to the invention, in which deburring blade 9 strikes with the tubular inner surface 18 with its longitudinal axis at an oblique angle, and sliding bearing 24 is no longer able to back away because the sliding bearing is still being moved forward toward tubular inner surface 18 in the direction of arrow 11, and in this case (as in the drawing of FIG. 1a) the deburring blade would break off.

[0069] Such an undesirable break thus occurs in the direction of arrow 19 in segment 8c, as was described in reference to FIG. 1.

[0070] The same case, specifically the case of a break in segment 8c, is illustrated again in FIG. 1b, where it is apparent that deburring blade 9 rests with its sliding bearing 24 arranged at its front end in a neutral position against the tubular inner surface 18, and has no clearance that will permit it to move either downward in the direction of arrow 26 or upward in the direction of arrow 26, because it is being held in the neutral position, and no deflecting torque is acting on deburring blade 9.

[0071] This collision case occurs when blade axis 55 of deburring blade 9 forms an angle (neutral angle 51) of 90 with the longitudinal axis 50 of deburring tool 10, designated as zero position 25.

[0072] The invention is intended to avoid such cases of breakage.

[0073] This is where the invention comes in, which provides according to FIG. 1c that deburring blade 9 is prevented from ever reaching a neutral or zero position 25 according to FIGS. 1a and 1b in that, according to the invention, deburring blade 9 is constantly held, spring-loaded and swivelable, in base body portion 16 in an angular position that deviates from zero position 25, and is prevented from swiveling back to the 90-degree position by means of a backstop.

[0074] Whereas FIG. 1c shows the neutral angle 51 to be avoided, which is therefore to be avoided, the same diagram shows that, according to the invention, an additional angle 53 is now assigned to deburring blade 9, so that its neutral position now corresponds to the new neutral angle 52.

[0075] This is carried out according to the invention in that the lower end 30a of flexible spring 30 extends into a control groove 31, but only the one side of flexible spring 30 rests against the one control edge 32 (see FIG. 1d) of control groove 31, while the opposite control edge 34 remains free and forms a backstop for blade holder 20.

[0076] According to FIG. 1d, control groove 31 is formed as a groove which is directed radially outward and is open on one side in blade holder 20, the width of said groove being slightly larger than the width of the end 30a of flexible spring 30 which engages in control groove 31. Said groove is approximately U-shaped in profile, and the base arm of the U-shaped profile is oriented parallel to a radial straight line through the blade bearing 27. The side arms of the U-shaped profile form the symmetrically mutually opposing control edges 32, 34, which open radially outward over rounded lateral surfaces. The U-shaped profile of control groove 31 is symmetrical to the radial axis through the blade bearing 27. The lower end face 30b of flexible spring 20 is positioned at a distance from the base arm of the U-shaped profile, creating a clearance 33 there.

[0077] This results in a preloading of blade holder 20 only in the direction of arrow 26, and as is clear from the diagram of FIG. 1d, the blade will be swiveled further downward in the direction of arrow 26 under torque 54 as a result of its oblique position, thereby preventing a risk of breakage.

[0078] It is therefore essential that the lower end 30a of flexible spring 30 extends into control groove with spacing therefrom, and rests only with one side edge against the one control edge 32, thus prestressing the blade holder, spring-loaded, in only one direction (diversion clearance 26), while in the other direction, the end 30a of flexible spring 30 would come to rest immediately against the opposing control edge 34, blocking the blade against swiveling back. This is the backstop according to the invention.

[0079] The deburring blade is thus held, spring-loaded, in a position in which it is swiveled away from base body portion 16 of deburring tool 10 at an angle that deviates from 90.

[0080] FIG. 1d also shows that the distance between the swivel bearing of the blade, which is provided by blade bearing 27, and the point of application of the deburring blade on the tubular inner surface 18 results in a distance 29 which is desirable according to the invention, and which is necessary for achieving torque 54. The desired torque 54 always rotates deburring blade 9 out of an undesirable dead-center position.

[0081] In the case of a breakas was illustrated in FIGS. 1a and 1bthis distance 29 is absent, and as a result, the torque 54 that could ensure a deflection of the deburring blade out of the neutral position is also absent.

[0082] The deflection of flexible spring 30 resulting from the fact that only the left side of flexible spring 30 rests against the one control edge 32 of control groove 31 is achieved by means of a spring preloading pin 28, which rests against the lateral wall of flexible spring 30, deflecting it obliquely outward in such a way that control edge 32 is in contact with flexible spring 30, and as a result, blade holder 20 remains held, swiveled obliquely downward.

[0083] In the position shown in FIG. 1d, blade holder 20 has a small amount of clearance, however this is not essential.

[0084] The blade is therefore no longer able to move back into the neutral position, since this would be prevented by the positioning of control edge 34 against the end face 30b of flexible spring 30.

[0085] Therefore, flexible spring 30 is moved out of its neutral home position by means of spring preloading pin 28 into an oblique position, and ensures that only one lateral edge of flexible spring 30 rests against control edge 32 of control groove 31.

[0086] In a further development, it can be provided that spring preloading pin 28 is embodied as adjustable and as rotatable as an eccentric pin, making the adjustment clearance or the deflection of flexible spring 30 into an oblique position adjustable.

[0087] FIG. 2 shows a further application of the present invention, wherein in a solid workpiece 1 a cross bore 2 is arranged, and the deburring of cross bore 2 is impeded by a flange ring 37 protruding from workpiece 1.

[0088] Cross bore 2 lies close enough to flange ring 37 that the case of breakage is again encountered according to FIG. 2, in which the sliding bearing 24 of deburring blade 9, which is swiveled away from base body portion 16 into a neutral angular position of 90, collides with the end face 35 of flange ring 37; this end face 35 thus forms the interfering contour 36.

[0089] The collision case occurs here as well because in deburring segment 8c, blade holder 20 with the deburring blade 9 clamped thereon, which is driven in the direction of arrow 11, is unable to back away in the direction of arrow 19, and in the drawing of FIG. 2a, the sliding bearing 24 of the deburring blade would break off.

[0090] The collision case similar to the collision case of FIG. 1b is also shown in FIG. 2b, where it is apparent that in the region of cross bore 2, the right borehole edge is positioned close enough to flange ring 37 that collision again occurs, and the blade, which is swiveled 90 outward from deburring tool 10, has no clearance to allow deflection 26, 26 either upward or downward, and as a result, it would break.

[0091] This is where the invention comes in, which provides according to FIG. 2c that, with a deburring tool 10 which is driven in a clockwise direction, deburring blade 9 now occupies a constantly predetermined oblique position as the neutral position of blade axis 55, thereby avoiding the collision case according to FIGS. 2b and 2a.

[0092] FIG. 3 shows a first embodiment of a deburring tool 10, in which the additional details already described in reference to FIG. 1 are shown.

[0093] As is apparent here, the base body portion 16 with a decreased diameter is located at the lower end of base body 12, and in this region, deburring blade 9 is held spring-loaded with blade axis 55 in a constantly oblique position.

[0094] FIG. 4 shows, as a first embodiment example, one option for holding flexible spring 30 in a spring-preloaded oblique position.

[0095] For this purpose, spring preloading pin 28 is provided, which is positioned against the inner side of flexible spring 30 so that the flexible spring is supported obliquely and spring-loaded against spring preloading pin 28, ensuring that only control groove 31 of blade holder 20, with the help of control edge 32, rests against the one side of flexible spring 30, thereby holding blade holder 20, spring-preloaded, in an oblique downward position in the neutral position.

[0096] FIGS. 5 to 7 show the sequence of steps in the method according to the invention.

[0097] In a first method step, deburring tool 10 is introduced into cross bore 2 in the direction of arrow 38, concentrically with cross bore axis 56 of cross bore 2, until sliding bearing 24 of deburring blade 9 is just outside of cross bore 2.

[0098] As soon as sliding bearing 24 is at the front edge of cross bore 2, the forward feed movement in the direction of arrow 38 is interrupted, and in a subsequent method step, movement is carried out in transverse direction 40, in order to move the base body 12 of the deburring tool eccentrically and transversely to cross bore axis 56 of deburring tool 10.

[0099] This serves to ensure that deburring blade 9, which is already protruding out of base body 12, will not collide with the right side of cross bore 2, and results in clearance 42.

[0100] Once clearance 42 has been achieved, introduction into cross bore 2 in the longitudinal direction of arrow 41 can be continued, until sliding bearing 24 has just entered into cross bore 2, and only then is the tool pulled back in the transverse direction along arrow 40, as shown in FIG. 6, thereby moving the longitudinal axis 50 of deburring tool 10 in alignment with cross bore axis 56 of cross bore 2.

[0101] Blade 9 is thus already moved, spring-loaded, out of its obliquely extended position into a further obliquely extended position, without risk of collision or breakage.

[0102] In the transition from FIG. 6 to FIG. 7, longitudinal movement in longitudinal direction 41 continues until the deburring tool has been advanced into its starting position shown in FIG. 7, for the start of the deburring process.

[0103] Proceeding from this starting position, deburring tool 10 is driven in the direction of arrow 11 and executes the deburring process, in which the cutting edge 39 of deburring blade 9 is placed against the inner side of cross bore 2 and executes a deburring of the inner edge 3 of cross bore 2, advancing circumferentially.

[0104] This is carried out with retraction in the direction of arrow 41.

[0105] As is clear from this diagram, with the deburring blade 9 held constantly in its deburring position, spring-loaded obliquely downward, there is no longer a risk of breakage on an interfering contour 36.

[0106] FIG. 8 shows, as a modified embodiment example from the embodiment example of FIG. 4, that the spring preloading pin 28 could also be dispensed with, and in its place, the end 30a of flexible spring 30 could be embodied as a tapered, widened portion 45, with the tapered, widened portion resting on both the left control edge 32 and the right control edge 34 of control groove 31, thus holding deburring blade 9 spring-preloaded in a position directed obliquely downward, preventing it from swiveling back into a 90 angle position. This is a further embodiment of a backstop.

[0107] As a further embodiment example, FIG. 9 shows that the blade holder does not necessarily need to be integrally connected to deburring blade 9. As an alternative, FIG. 9 shows a blade holder 20 in which deburring blade 9 is held detachably in the blade holder, and the detachable mount is achieved by means of a retaining pin 46, which engages in a laterally open groove on deburring blade 9.

[0108] When retaining pin 46 is removed from blade holder 20, deburring blade 9 can thus be removed.

[0109] Otherwise, the same reference signs are used for the same parts.

[0110] FIG. 10 shows a further embodiment example in which flexible spring 30 can also be preloaded in the oblique direction by means of a preloading pin 47 arranged perpendicular relative to the longitudinal axis 50 of deburring tool 10; this preloading pin likewise preloads flexible spring 30 obliquely, ensuring that the one control edge 32 of control groove 31 rests against the one side of flexible spring 30 and prevents deburring blade 9 from moving into a neutral position in which it is swiveled outward 90. Instead, it remains arrested, spring-loaded, in a position directed obliquely downward.

[0111] The same function is shown in the embodiment example according to FIG. 11, where it is apparent that a peripheral groove 48 of reduced diameter is provided on the blade holder 20, the groove forming stops 48a, 48b at its two sides and having a locking pin 49 in the region of peripheral groove 48.

[0112] Locking pin 49 therefore likewise forms a stop for limiting the swiveling of deburring blade 9 obliquely outward, so that flexible spring 30 cannot come to rest against control edge 32, because this oblique preloading or stop limitation is accomplished by means of locking pin 49.

[0113] In this embodiment example it is clear that flexible spring 30 could also be dispensed with, and in its place a spiral spring or helical compression spring could hold blade holder 25, spring-preloaded, in its outward swiveled position.

[0114] The provision of a flexible spring which is clamped at one end with its unattached end being supported against the blade holder thus may also be replaced by other spring preloading devices, or generallystored-energy devices.
