Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide favourable sharpness and a long life by devising the blade bottom of a ball blade of a ball end mill to have roundness of 5% or more of a blade diameter and to smoothly continue to a rake surface. CONSTITUTION:Roundness of 24% of a blade diameter is provided on the blade bottom of a two-blade ball end mill 1, and each part except for a cutting blade ridge line 2 is connected to each other with a smooth curved surface. Therefore, a part including a ball blade is devised to be attached/detached with a screw and a ball blade part is made free to exchange. As a ball part blade pocket has roundness in this way, flow of chip comes to be smooth, sharpness comes to be favourable, cutting blade strength is improved, and a tool life is lengthened. Additionally, as it is of an attachable/detachable type, it comes to be easy to regenerate it.

2. Description of the Related Art In a ball end mill, the cutting speed approaches zero as much as it approaches the tip of a ball blade. Therefore, the cutting edge specifications have been devised to improve sharpness and reduce cutting resistance. For example, methods such as sharpening the blade angle and increasing the helix angle of the ball blade are known.
In addition, since the end mill shape is formed by machining, the flute shape of the ball portion must be tied with an angled ridge.

On the other hand, in order to prevent wear of the tip of the ball blade and prolong the life of the ball blade, it is necessary to give a cutting speed near the tip of the ball blade as much as possible, so that the number of revolutions tends to be set higher. However, in any of the conventional techniques, there is a problem that the strength of the cutting edge is insufficient and the ball blade is liable to be damaged and the life is short. In addition, the shape of the blade is formed by milling or grinding, and especially when forming the ball part, it is difficult to produce a free blade shape due to the limitations of the motion specifications of the processing machine. There are problems such as poor chip discharge.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has at least a blade diameter of at least 5 at the bottom of a ball blade.
It has a roundness with a radius of at least%, and is smoothly continuous with the rake face. Further, each part of the ball blade other than the cutting edge ridge may be smoothly connected by a curved surface, and the ball blade part may be detachable from the main body so that the ball blade part can be replaced if necessary. Note that these shapes are realized by applying the injection molding method, and take technical means to improve the cutting edge strength without impairing the sharpness and to improve the chip discharge property. is there. Further, when the ball blade portion is made detachable, a technical means is adopted in which the grip portion for attachment and detachment is molded simultaneously with the blade mold by an injection molding method.

By taking the above technical measures, the ball groove has a rounded groove, so that the flow of chips is smooth and the cutting performance is good, the cutting edge strength is improved, and the tool life is extended. Furthermore, the detachable type makes it easier to regenerate, and the synergistic effect with the tool life can greatly reduce the tool cost. Further, by manufacturing these shapes by applying the injection molding method, the processing cost can be reduced.
