ELECTRODEPOSITION REAMER TOOL

Abstract: The electrodeposition reamer tool has a work machining portion (3) in a reamer main body composed of a finish machining portion (4) having a cylindrical outer peripheral surface and a tapered cut machining portion (5) disposed at the tip side of the finish machining portion, and abrasive grains (6) are electrodeposited on the outer peripehral surfaces of the finish machining portion and the cut machining portion. When the electrodeposition reamer tool is fitted into a blank hole in a work, the hole is expanded by the cut machining portion and the inner surface of the hole is finish-machined by the finish machining portion. Accordingly, a precision inner diameter hole having a predetermined dimension can be formed without precision pre-machining of the blank hole.

Description: The present invention relates to an electrodeposited reamer tool for use in precision processing of bores. As a conventionally employed electrodeposited reamer, for example, a lapping reamer disclosed in JP-A-53427/1985 is known. As shown in Fig. 22, as for the aforementioned reamer A, a work processing portion C provided at an end portion of a reamer body (base metal) B is formed cylindrically over its entire length. The arrangement provided is such that abrasive grains D are electrodeposited on an external peripheral surface of this processing portion C, and an unillustrated pressing member sealed in the processing portion C is screwed in for expanding the diameter by means of a set bolt provided at an end portion so as to set its diameter, thereby obtaining surface accuracy by controlling the electrodeposited abrasive grain size. It should be noted that, in the drawing, reference character E denotes a slit formed in the work processing portion C. With the above-described electrodeposited reamer tool A, however, since its portion where the processing abrasive grains are electrodeposited, i.e., the work processing portion C, has a cylindrical shape, as mentioned above, it is impossible to provide a large machining allowance for a pre-processing hole which is formed in a work. In addition, with the above-described electrodeposited reamer tool A, since the surface roughness is adjusted by controlling the processing abrasive grain diameter, it is necessary to set to a small dimension the machining allowance of the pre-processing hole which is formed in the work, in conjunction with the improvement of the surface roughness. Accordingly, in order to effect precision processing of bores by using the above-described electrodeposited reamer tool A, it is necessary to preprocess the work with pre-processing bores having dimensional accuracy and surface roughness that are close to targets. For this reason, there has been a drawback in that the process for preprocessing becomes very complicated. From "Werkstatt und Betrieb", Vol. 120, No. 7, July 7, 1987, München, Germany, pages 161 - 564, an electrodeposited reamer tool is known which corresponds to the precharacterizing part of claim 1. This reamer tool has a spreadable diamond sleeve which is helically wound. The diamond coated sleeve has in its first portion a guiding zone, it its second portion a conical cutting zone and in its last portion a cylindrical calibration zone. The diamond sleeve can be spread radially by axially moving a conical mandrel extending through a conical bore of the diamond sleeve. With this reamer tool, it is possible to effect precision processing of bores without requiring a preprocessing step. However, the reamer tool allows only a limited advance velocity, when a high quality of the surface finishing of the bore is required. It is an object of the present invention to provide an electrodeposited reamer tool by which, after insertion of the reamer tool into a prepared hole of the workpiece, the hole may be readily enlarged, and which is nevertheless capable of providing a high surface quality of the surface finishing. This object is solved, according to the invention with the features of claim 1.

Only the embodiments in which the abrasive grains electrodeposited on at least a tip end portion of said outer peripheral surface of said cutting portion have a grain size greater than that of said abrasive grains electrodeposited on said outer peripheral surface of said finishing portion, and only the abrasive grains electrodeposited on the finishing portion are trued, whereas the abrasive grains of the cutting portion are not trued are claimed in the present invention. A detailed description will be given hereinunder with reference to the drawings illustrating several embodiments shown in Figs. 1 to 21. In Fig. 1, a first embodiment of an electrodeposited reamer tool which is not claimed in the present invention is shown. This electrodeposited reamer tool 1 is constructed such that a work processing portion 3 of a reamer body 2 is constituted by a finishing portion 4 having a cylindrical outer peripheral surface and a cutting portion 5 provided on the distal end side of this finishing portion 4 and having a tapered configuration. Both the finishing portion 4 and the cutting portion 5 are formed coaxially along a central axis of rotation of the reamer body 2, and a cross section perpendicular to the central axis of rotation shows a circular configuration. In addition, the cutting portion 5 is formed in such a manner that its proximal end is formed with the same diameter as the aforementioned finishing portion 4, and its diameter becomes gradually smaller toward the distal end. It should be noted that the outer peripheral surface of the cutting portion 5 is formed to be rectilinear in an axial cross section. Abrasive grains 6 are secured to the outer peripheral surfaces of the finishing portion 4 and the cutting portion 5 by means of electrodeposition. The abrasive grains 6 electrodeposited on the finishing portion 4 are trued and have flat cutting blades, while the abrasive grains 6 electrodeposited on the cutting portion 5 are not trued and have sharp cutting blades. In cases where hole processing is effected by means of the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 having the above-described construction, if the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 is inserted into a prepared hole of a work, the prepared hole is first enlarged by the cutting portion 5. At this time, the cutting portion 5 in the tapered form has a guiding effect. Then, if the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 is further inserted, the inner surface of the hole is finished by the finishing portion 4, so that a hole of a predetermined inner diameter is formed in the work. That is, in according with the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 having the above-described construction, it is possible to form a hole having a predetermined inner diameter in a work without processing a prepared hole with precision. Meanwhile, the abrasive grains 6 electrodeposited on the finishing portion 4 have flat cutting blades by being subjected to truing, and the inner surface of the diameter enlarged by the cutting portion 5 is ground by these flat cutting blades so as to determine the bore diameter, and correct surface roughness and roundness, and the like. In addition, since the abrasive grains 6 electrodeposited on the finishing portion 4 have flat distal ends, the area of contact with the inner surface of the hole is large, so that even if the feeding speed of the reamer tool 1 is increased, the surface roughness of the inner surface of the hole is not deteriorated. Here, a comparison between a case where hole processing is effected by using the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 in accordance with the present invention and a case where hole processing is effected using a conventional electrodeposited reamer tool is shown in Table 1. Conventional Tool Tool of the Invention Roughing Finishing Feed mm/rev. 0.25 0.15 2 Machining allowance µm/ 25 15 100 Surface roughness in pre-processing 6 µm unaffected Surface roughness, Rmax 3.5 µm 2 µm 2 µm Roundness 5 µm 2 µm 2 µm Cylindricity 5 µm 2 µm 2 µm Processing dimensions: 25 x 45L Material to be cut: FC25 As is apparent from this Table, with the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 in accordance with the present invention, even if the machining allowance is made large and the feeding rate is increased, it is possible to obtain processing accuracy equivalent to that obtained by a conventional tool. In addition, although, with the conventional tool, a surface roughness of 6 µm or thereabouts is required in pre-processing, and one tool is needed in each of the two processes of roughing and finishing, with the electrodeposited reamer tool in accordance with the present invention, the surface roughness in pre-processing does not affect the processing, and the required accuracy can be attained by one tool. A second embodiment of the electrodeposited reamer tool which is not claimed in the present invention is shown in Figs. 2 and 3. As shown in Fig. 2, this electrodeposited reamer tool 10 is constructed such that an outer peripheral surface 12a of a cutting portion 12 in a work processing portion 11 is formed on its axial cross section into a curved line, i.e., by being curved, and ceramics such as TiN is coated on this cutting portion 12. It should be noted that the construction is basically similar to that of the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 of the first embodiment except for the configuration of the outer peripheral surface of the cutting portion and the arrangement of the ceramic coating. In Fig. 2, reference numeral 13 denotes a finishing portion; 17, a reamer body; 14, abrasive grains of the finishing portion; 15, abrasive grains of the cutting portion; and 16, a ceramic coating. In cases where bore processing is effected by using the electrodeposited reamer tool 10 having the above-described construction, the frictional resistance between the cutting portion 12 and the inner peripheral surface of the prepared hole in the work is reduced by Virtue of the action of the aforementioned ceramics. Accordingly, the generation of frictional heat is suppressed, and it is possible to obviate such drawbacks as the cuttings being deposited onto the cutting portion and hence resulting in the enlargement of the processed bore diameter, or a plucking being caused on the processed surface. In addition, as for the ceramics such as TiN, the adhesive strength of cuttings is low compared with that of a nickel which is generally used for a plating layer for fixing abrasive grains. For this reason, removal of cuttings from chip pockets is facilitated, which also makes it possible to prevent in advance the enlargement of the processed bore diameter and the plucking on the processed surface. Also, according to results of an experiment, in a case where bore processing is effected by using the electrodeposited reamer tool 10 in accordance with this embodiment, as compared with a case where bore processing is effected by using the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 of the first embodiment shown before, the surface roughness, roundness, and cylindricity were respectively identical at 2 µm, whereas even when the feeding rate was increased from 2 mm/rev. to 3 mm/rev., it was possible to obtain processing accuracy equivalent to that of the electrodeposited reamer tool 1 of the first embodiment. Namely, the processing efficiency can be increased by 1.5-fold. In this case, the material of the work used in the experiment was FC25, the processing dimensions were 25 x 45 Lmm, and the peripheral speed was 20 m/min. Figs. 4 to 7 illustrate a third embodiment of an electrodeposited reamer tool, which illustrates an embodiment of an electrodeposited reamer tool in accordance with the present invention. An electrodeposited reamer tool 30 is constructed such that a work processing portion 32 of a reamer body 31 is constituted by a finishing portion 33 having a cylindrical outer peripheral surface and a cutting portion 34 provided on the distal end side of this finishing portion 33 and having a tapered configuration. Furthermore, formed in the outer peripheral surface of the work processing portion 32 are a plurality of notches 32a, 32a, ... dividing the outer peripheral surface into equal parts and extending along a central axis of the reamer body 31. Abrasive grains 35 having a relatively small grain size are secured to the outer peripheral surface of the aforementioned finishing portion 33 by means of deposition, while abrasive grains 36 having a greater grain size than the abrasive grains 35 are secured to the outer peripheral surface of the cutting portion 34 by means of deposition. It should be noted that in the third embodiment, as shown in Fig. 7, only the abrasive grains 35 electrodeposited on the finishing portion 33 are trued. In accordance with the electrodeposited reamer tool 30 having the above-described construction, the abrasive grains 36 having a greater grain size on the cutting portion 34 cut off the prepared hole of the work with high efficiency, while the abrasive grains 36 having a smaller grain size on the finishing portion 33 and trued finish the inner surface of the bore smoothly. Incidentally, at the time of bore processing, the cuttings are discharged through the notches 32a, 32a, ... provided on the outer peripheral surface of the work processing portion. Here, Fig. 9 shows results of a comparison between an electrodeposited reamer tool (referred to Tool No. 1) having #100 CBN abrasive grains secured on the outer peripheral surfaces of the finishing portion and the cutting portion, on the one hand, and an electrodeposited reamer tool (referred to as Tool No. 2) in which #100 CBN abrasive grains are secured on the finishing portion and trued and #80 CBN abrasive grains are secured on the cutting portion, on the other. As is apparent from Fig. 9, it was found that, as for Tool No. 2, the processing length is extended by about 1.5-fold as compared with Tool No. 1. This is conceivably attributable to the fact that, with Tool No. 2 such as the one shown in Fig. 7, i.e., the electrodeposited reamer tool 30 in which the abrasive grains 36 having a large grain size are secured on the cutting portion 34, chip pockets, i.e., gaps between the abrasive grains, are large, so that a loading due to the cuttings is less likely to occur. Meanwhile, with the electrodeposited reamer tool 30 in accordance with this embodiment, the abrasive grains 35 of the finishing portion 33 perform only the burnishing action, so that the diameter of the tool can be made smaller than a conventional electrodeposited reamer tool, and the finishing surface roughness can be improved. In addition, since the abrasive grains 36 of the cutting portion 34 have a large grain size, the machining allowing can be made large, so that a plurality of machining processes, such as the insertion of two tools that has hitherto been practiced, can be dispensed with. In an electrodeposited reamer tool 40 in accordance with a fourth embodiment in accordance with the present invention shown in Fig. 8, abrasive grains 46 having a large grain size are secured only on a distal end portion of an outer peripheral surface of a cutting portion 44, while abrasive grains 45 having a small grain size are secured on an outer peripheral surface of the cutting portion 44 following the distal end portion thereof as well as on the outer peripheral surface of the finishing portion 43, and only the abrasive grains 45 secured on the finishing portion 43 are trued. The other arrangements are basically similar to those of the electrodeposited reamer tool 30 of the third embodiment. Incidentally, the abrasive grains 45 are #100 CBN abrasive grains, while the abrasive grains 46 are #80 CBN abrasive grains. Here, if a comparison is made between the above-described electrodeposited reamer tool 40 (referred to as Tool No. 3) on the one hand, and Tool No. 1 and Tool No. 2 on the other, it was found that, as for Tool No. 3, the processing length is extended slightly more than Tool No. 2, as shown in Fig. 9. The reason for this is conceivably attributable to the fact that since the abrasive grains with a large grain size that are located in the vicinity of a boundary between the finishing portion 33 and the cutting portion 34 are not present, loading is less likely to occur. Although in this embodiment a description has been given of an example in which #100 and #80 are used as the CBN abrasive grains, this selection is an example in which the surface roughness, roundness, and cylindricity are aimed at 2µ, and it goes without saying that various modifications are possible depending on the required accuracy. Figs. 10 to 20 illustrate a fifth embodiment of an electrodeposited reamer tool. In this electrodeposited reamer tool 50, a plurality of notches 51a, 51a, ... extending along a central axis thereof in such a manner as to divide an outer peripheral surface of a work processing portion 51 having a circular cross section into equal parts are formed in the processing portion 51. In addition, abrasive grains are secured on external peripheral surfaces of a finishing portion 52 and a cutting portion 53 in the work processing portion 51 by means of electrodeposition. Furthermore, in the aforementioned electrodeposited reamer tool 50, an oil supplying passage 54 is provided along a central axis of rotation, and a plurality of oil holes 55, 55, ..., which communicate between the oil supplying passage 54 and portions of the outer peripheral surface of the cutting portion 53 where the notches 51a are not formed, are formed. As clearly shown in Fig. 12, the aforementioned oil holes 55 are provided in such a manner as to extend in a direction of opening from the oil supplying passage 54 toward the tip of the tool, i.e., by being inclined diagonally toward the tip with respect to the central axis of rotation, and are open substantially in a longitudinal center of the outer peripheral surface of the cutting portion 53. If bore processing is effected by means of the electrodeposited reamer tool 50 having the above-described construction, the cutting portion 53 first enlarges a prepared hole provided in a work. At this time, since the cutting portion 53 handles most of the bore processing, the machining load is large, and a loading due to cuttings is most likely to occur. However, since a working fluid is supplied to the aforementioned cutting portion 53 through the oil supplying passage 54 and the oil holes 55, the cuttings adhering to the cutting portion 53 are carried away by this working fluid. In addition, since the oil holes 55 are open in the outer peripheral surface of the cutting portion 53, the oil holes 55 can apply a constant working fluid pressure to a processing point. Incidentally, the supply of the working fluid to the outer peripheral surface at the work processing portion 51 other than the work processing point is effected by the notches 51a from outside the tool 50. Fig. 13 shows a comparison between the electrodeposited reamer tool 50 of this embodiment and a conventional electrodeposited reamer tool not provided with the oil holes, through a graph on the relationships between the processing length and the finishing surface roughness. The graph shows that, with this embodiment, i.e., the electrodeposited reamer tool provided with the oil holes, since the loading due to cuttings is reduced, the processing length is prolonged before the finishing surface roughness begins to deteriorate. In other words, with the tool which is not provided with the oil holes, it is difficult to upgrade the levels of processing conditions owing to the loading caused by the cuttings, but it is possible to upgrade the levels of processing conditions by the provision of the oil holes. In addition, although it has been difficult to effect electrodeposited reamer processing with respect to materials such as Al and Ni alloys, which produce long cuttings, processing can now be effected by the provision of the oil holes, although the processing conditions are restricted. Figs. 14 to 18 illustrate a sixth embodiment of an electrodeposited reamer tool. As shown in Fig. 14, an electrodeposited reamer tool 60 is constructed such that a work processing portion 61 is constituted by a finishing portion 62 having a cylindrical outer peripheral surface and a cutting portion 63 in which its outer peripheral surface is formed into a shape of R in its axial cross section, abrasive grains 64 being electrodeposited on outer peripheral surfaces of both portions 62, 63. The abrasive grains secured on the finishing portion 62 are trued, and roughing is effected between points A - B in Fig. 13, medium finishing is effected between points B - C, and finishing is effected subsequent to point C of the trued finishing portion 62. Meanwhile, as shown in Figs. 15 - 18, formed in an outer peripheral surface of a reamer body of the aforementioned electrodeposited reamer tool 60 are a plurality of notches 61a, 61a, ... extending along a central axis of rotation. In addition, an oil supplying passage 65 is provided in the electrodeposited reamer tool 60 along the central axis of rotation, and oil holes 66 communicating between the oil supplying passage 65 and the outer peripheral surface of the work processing portion 61 are formed. In addition, oil reservoirs 67 in which the oil holes 66 are open are formed in the outer peripheral surface of the work processing portion 61. Here, Fig. 19 illustrates an electrodeposited reamer tool 70, wherein the outer peripheral surface of a cutting portion 72 in a work processing portion 71 is formed into a rectilinear line in its axial cross section. The work processing portion 71 in this electrodeposited reamer tool 70 is divided into the cutting portion 72 for mainly effecting roughing and a finishing portion 73 for effecting finishing. In addition, since there are invariably variations in the grain size of electrodeposited abrasive grains 74, the number of abrasive grains which actually act in processing is greater between points B - C in a rear half section of the cutting portion 72 than between points A - B in a forward half section thereof, and the size of chip pockets becomes smaller to the contrary. The section between these points B - C is important as a portion for handling processing which corresponds to medium processing, and it is necessary to permit a smooth shift from roughing (between points A - B) to finishing (subsequent to point C). In order to stabilize the processing between points B - C, it is necessary to widen that range. However, this would require an angle of taper to be very small at 1 degree or less in terms of the configuration of a taper, so that the manufacture has been difficult, and it has been necessary to provide a large allowance for tool withdrawal. Furthermore, if the levels of working conditions are further upgraded, a loading occurs between points B - C owing to the cuttings, so that this loading cannot be sufficiently suppressed even if oil holes are provided in the cutting portion 72. In contrast, with the electrodeposited reamer tool 60 of the sixth embodiment, by providing an arrangement, as shown in Fig. 14, in which the work processing portion 61 is constituted by the finishing portion 62 (subsequent to point C) having the cylindrical outer peripheral surface and the cutting portion 63 (between points A - C) in which its outer peripheral surface is formed into the shape of R in its axial cross section, the range of medium finishing in the intermediate section (between points B - C) can be enlarged than the aforementioned electrodeposited reamer tool 70. In addition, the number of the abrasive grains 64 and the size of the chip pockets change two-dimensionally from roughing (between points A - B) to finishing (subsequent to point C). Thus, the processing condition changes more smoothly than the electrodeposited reamer tool 70, and the more the processing point approaches the point C, the smaller the rate of change and the more stable finishing can be performed. Here, Table 2 shows a comparison between a case in which bore processing is effected by using the electrodeposited reamer 60 of the sixth embodiment and a case in which bore processing is effected by using the electrodeposited reamer tool 70 shown in Fig. 19. As is apparent from the foregoing Table, it was found that, in accordance with the electrodeposited reamer tool 60 of this embodiment, given the same processing conditions, the surface roughness, cylindricity, and roundness can be improved, and the tool life is prolonged by about 1.5-fold that of the electrodeposited reamer tool 70. Meanwhile, at the time when bore processing is effected by means of the electrodeposited reamer tool 60, since the working fluid is supplied to the work processing portion 61 via the oil supplying passage 65, the oil holes 66, and the oil reservoirs 67, the cuttings adhering to the work processing portion 61 are carried away, with the result that the loading of the work processing portion 61 is suppressed. Here, Fig. 20 is a diagram for calculating the positions at which the oil holes 66 are formed in the electrodeposited reamer tool 60, the abscissas show the radius (mm) of the tip of the tool (base metal), while the ordinates show the length (mm) of each portion from the tip of the tool. Fig. 21 is a diagram explaining each portion of the work processing portion 61, where it is assumed that Machining allowance (radius) 0.05 mm (t) Average diameter of abrasive grains used 0.22 mm (d) Amount of truing (radius) 0.055 mm (s) Difference with the radius of tool tip 0.2 mm (p) Radius of tool tip (base metal) R then, In the case of a blind bore processing, if it is assumed that the allowance for tool withdrawal is allowed up to 15 mm, it is necessary to provide 500 mm or less as the radius of the tool tip, R, on the basis of Fig. 20. If R = 500 mm, the portion of the tool for handling roughing and medium finishing is the range from point (A) on the L - ℓ' curve to point (B) on the L-curve in Fig. 20. Accordingly, it can be appreciated that an optimum position for providing an oil hole is at a position of 4 - 14 mm from the tool tip. The electrodeposited reamer tool in accordance with the present invention can be applied effectively when precision bore processing is performed on various works.
