Abstract

A combined drill and chamfer tool ( 13, 21 ) for producing boreholes ( 29 ) in a workpiece ( 28 ) and for subsequently producing a chamfer ( 30 ) on at least one bore edge of the borehole ( 29 ), comprising a drill bit ( 1 ), which is secured in a rotationally fixed manner in a base body ( 3 ), and at least one chamfering blade ( 4 ) arranged behind the drill bit ( 1 ) in the axial direction, said chamfering blade being mounted in a blade window ( 25 ) arranged in the drill shank ( 35 ) and spring-loaded so as to be displaceable transversely to the longitudinal axis of the combined tool ( 13, 21 ), wherein the drill body ( 13 ) comprising the drill bit ( 1 ) and the drill shank ( 35 ) is made of a solid hard metal material, and wherein a spring-loaded, displaceable control bolt ( 5 ) is located in a central longitudinal bore ( 36 ) of the solid hard metal drill, the front tip ( 15 ) of said bolt controlling the transverse displacement of the chamfering blade ( 4 ), which is transversely displaceable within the blade window ( 25 ).

Claims (10)

1. A combined drill and chamfer tool for producing boreholes in a workpiece and for subsequently producing a chamfer on at least one bore edge of the borehole, comprising a drill bit, a drill shank, and at least one chamfering blade arranged behind the drill bit in the axial direction, said chamfering blade being mounted in a blade window arranged in the drill shank and spring-loaded so as to be displaceable transversely to the longitudinal axis of the combined tool, wherein a drill body comprising the drill bit and the drill shank is made of a solid hard metal material, and in that a spring-loaded, displaceable control bolt is located in a central longitudinal bore of the solid hard metal drill body, a front tip of said bolt controlling the transverse displacement of the chamfering blade, which is transversely displaceable within the blade window, and wherein an adapter sleeve, a diameter of which is equal to or smaller than that of the drill shank, is fastened onto a rear part of the drill shank, with a spring of the spring-loaded displaceable control bolt being arranged in the adapter sleeve.

2. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 1 , wherein a fitting length, defined as an axial distance between an end of a drill helix and a beginning of the blade window, ranges from about 0.001 mm to about 2 mm.

3. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 1 , wherein a diameter of the drill bit is less than or equal to about 5 mm.

4. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 1 , wherein the chamfering blade is embodied as cutting on one side or on two sides.

5. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 1 , wherein the chamfering blade has a conically tapering lead-in profiled part which can be broken off.

6. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 1 wherein the adapter sleeve is pressed directly onto the drill shank, and wherein the spring is a compression spring, and the compression spring and an adjustment screw for the compression spring are arranged within the adapter sleeve.

7. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 1 wherein the adapter sleeve has the same diameter as the drill shank.

8. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 1 wherein the diameter of the adapter sleeve is smaller than the diameter of the drill shank by about 0.05 mm to about 0.2 mm.

9. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 1 , the tool being adapted to be clamped in a chuck having clamping surfaces, the tool being further adapted such that the clamping surfaces of the chuck reach beyond the length of the drill shank and extend up to the area of the adapter sleeve.

10. The combined drill and chamfer tool according to claim 9 wherein the drill shank is adapted to be clamped in the chuck but the adapter sleeve is adapted to not be clamped in the chuck.
