Abstract

Abstract A device for machining the internal wall of a cylinder has a tool head with a shank securable to a rotary and axial movable boring bar. Mounted on the periphery of the tool head are a deep hole boring bit, a paring bit and a pair of obliquely mounted smoothing rolls. There is a passage for coolant to the boring bit which decreases in size in a direction opposite to the machining direction so that the coolant is accelerated in the passage to enhance cooling and flushing of swarf. A pair of radially adjustable supporting blocks assist in supporting the tool head in the cylinder and are substantially coplanar with the boring bit. The paring bit is disposed closely behind the plane in which the blocks and the boring bit lie. Downstream of the boring bit, the coolant passage is wider and has a constant cross-section area for a limited extent. The tool head further includes a bush having a helical channel therein for passage of some of the coolant to act as a lubricant. Most of the coolant from the paring bit and the boring bit is discharged via respective channels into a cavity in the tool head as is coolant from the helical channel. The smoothing rolls are separately supplied with coolant.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 89 words
A draw boring head including a cutter mounting portion of substantially constant diameter, a shank portion of reduced diameter compared to said cutter mounting portion, a tapered transitional zone between said cutter mounting portion and said shank portion, a deep bore cutting bit located at a juncture between said cutter mounting portion and said transitional zone, supporting blocks radially oriented to counteract the components of cutting forces and a pairing bit located between said supporting blocks in a position trailing and angularly offset from said deep bore cutting bit.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 89 words
A draw boring head including a cutter mounting portion of substantially constant diameter, a shank portion of reduced diameter compared to said cutter mounting portion, a tapered transitional zone between said cutter mounting portion and said shank portion, a deep bore cutting bit located at a juncture between said cutter mounting portion and said transitional zone, supporting blocks radially oriented to counteract the components of cutting forces and a pairing bit located between said supporting blocks in a position trailing and angularly offset from said deep bore cutting bit.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 29 words
The device according to claim 1, wherein the paring bit is sited on a line bisecting an angle which is included between radial lines passing through the supporting blocks.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 38 words
The device according to claim 1, wherein there are provided separate coolant flow channels, immediately adjacent the deep bore cutting bit and the paring bit, each channel being disposed at an acute angle relative to the machining direction.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 46 words
The device according to claim 1, wherein a guide bush is provided on the tool head adjacent the paring bit, said guide bush having a helical groove coiled oppositely with respect to the direction of rotation of the tool head for conducting a stream of coolant.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 100 words
The device according to claim 1, wherein a seal is provided on the tool head for rotation therewith, said seal being spaced from the paring bit, and smoothing rolls are mounted peripherally on the tool head with operative faces thereof obliquely inclined relative to the machining direction said rolls being disposed on the opposite side of the seal to the paring bit and being supplied with coolant by means of a channel which extends axially through the tool head in the vicinity of its periphery said channel having an inlet disposed in front of the deep bore cutting bit. PG,17
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 37 words
The device according to claim 5, wherein on the paring bit side of said seal, there is provided outlet channel for coolant, said outlet channel being disposed at an acute angle with respect to the machining direction.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
The device according to claim 1, wherein each of the supporting blocks is itself adjustable relative to the tool head by only one radially directed screw.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 75 words
The device according to claim 4, wherein the guide bush consists of a plurality of shell sections and each shell section is mounted on the tool head by means of a plurality of fixing screws and set screws to enable the section to be adjusted radially, wherein a pair of peripherally spaced fixing screws are disposed in respective peripherally extending elongated holes in each section on opposite sides of another fixing screw for said section.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 29 words
The device according to claim 8, wherein the peripheral length of each elongated slot is less than the diameters of an inner head of the respective fixing set screw.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 21 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein the paring bit is arranged in the axial direction immediately adjacent the supporting blocks.
