Filed: 2001-12-21
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve chip discharging performance by a chip discharging groove in regard to a throwaway type drill with a flange and a body connected by a taper.  <P>SOLUTION: A rise point P of the chip discharging groove 5 is set at a position separated 0.2 times of a drill diameter D or more from the body 2 to a rear end side. Since a chip curl diameter in stainless steel machining is 0.3-0.4D, even when a draft allowance for a through hole is taken into consideration, a gap of 0.4D is secured between a surface of a workpiece and a groove bottom of the chip discharging groove radially changed in orientation. To smoothly change a direction of chip outflow, a rise angle θ of the chip discharging groove 5 is set within the range of 40-70° with respect to an axis.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
