Drill head
The drill head ( 2 ) extends along a rotational axis ( 24 ) in the axial direction ( 22 ) and has a central area ( 6 ) on the front with first main cutting edges ( 26 ), an intermediate area ( 8 ) connecting thereto, and an outer area ( 10 ) in turn connecting thereto with second main cutting edges ( 30 ). The intermediate area ( 8 ) in this case expands in the axial direction ( 22 ) toward the outer area ( 10 ) and in particular forms an expanding conical shell. A centering effect is hereby achieved via the intermediate area ( 8 ).
1. A drill head extending along a rotational axis in an axial direction and comprising:
a central area on a front portion of the drill head, with first main cutting edges which extend up to a first radius;
an outer area, offset rearwardly in the axial direction relative to the central area, with second main cutting edges extending up to a second outer radius; and
an intermediate area extending in the axial direction, which terminates at the central area and connects the central area with the outer area, the intermediate area having intermediate cutting edges formed thereon, the intermediate cutting edges connecting the first main cutting edges with the second main cutting edges,
wherein the intermediate area extends in the axial direction up to the outer area at an inclination angle, the inclination angle being in a range between 3° and 15° in relation to the rotational axis
wherein the second main cutting edges are oriented with respect to one another at the same point angle as the first main cutting edges.
2. The drill head according to claim 1 , wherein the intermediate area expands conically.
3. The drill head according to claim 1 , wherein the first radius of the central area is in a range between 0.25 to 0.8 times that of the outer radius.
4. The drill head according to claim 1 , wherein the intermediate area extends in the axial direction over an axial length in a range of from 0.1 mm to 5 mm.
5. The drill head according to claim 1 , wherein the first main cutting edges of the central area are oriented at a point angle with respect to one another, which is in a range of from 90° to 180°.
6. The drill head according to claim 5 , wherein the point angle is about 140°.
7. The drill head according to claim 1 , wherein a chip flute is placed in the central area.
8. A drill head extending along a rotational axis in an axial direction and comprising:
a central area on a front portion of the drill head, with first main cutting edges which extend up to a first radius, the first main cutting edges being oriented at a first point angle with respect to one another in a range of from 90° to 180°;
an outer area, offset rearwardly in the axial direction relative to the central area, with second main cutting edges extending up to a second outer radius, the second main cutting edges being oriented at a second point angle with respect to one another, the second point angle being equal to the first point angle; and
an intermediate area extending in the axial direction, which terminates at the central area and connects the central area with the outer area,
wherein the intermediate area extends in the axial direction up to the outer area at an inclination angle,
wherein the inclination angle is in the range between 3° and 15° in relation to the rotational axis; and wherein the intermediate area has intermediate cutting edges formed thereon, the intermediate cutting edges connecting the first main cutting edges with the second main cutting edges.
