Patent number: 6231276Abstract: In addition to having a stop member in the form of a hollow cylinder which is slotted and can be spread by means of an adjustment screw, an adjustable stop for a cutter adjustably arranged in a main casting or body of a tool is also provided with a sleeve member which can be inserted into a longitudinal bore of the stop member. The sleeve member has inside threads which can be brought into engagement with the adjustment screw. This results in an improvement of the load carrying capacity of the threaded connection. Since the sleeve member can move in the adjustment direction, the bending load on the adjustment screw is reduced.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 1999Date of Patent: May 15, 2001Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AG Werkzeuge + HartstoffeInventors: Gebhard Müller, Horst Jäger, Martin Voll

Patent number: 6164879Abstract: Proposed is a drilling tool for drilling in solid material, having a base body (1) containing chip flutes (5, 5a) and at least two interchangeable inserts (3, 3a) at the face of the base body (1). The inserts are arranged on the base body at different radial distances such that their working ranges partially overlap. The blades (12) of the inserts (3, 3a) are formed by two cutting edges (8, 9) which together form an obtuse angle, that is the point angle (11). The face (13) of the blades (12) has parallel profile ribs (14, 14a) which act as runners and which in the region of the cutting edges (8, 9), aligned in the direction of chip removal, extend radially inwards over a curved course relative to their installed position, toward a flank region (17) of the insert (3, 3a) near the drilling tool axis (7).Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 1999Date of Patent: December 26, 2000Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AG Werkzeuge + HartstoffeInventor: Ulrich Krenzer

Patent number: 6116825Abstract: A method for supplying the working parts of a boring tool, in particular a drill, with a lubricant which both cools and lubricates the drill. A dispenser is connected directly or indirectly to the drill to enable lubricant to be fed to the working parts of the drill through at least one channel in the drill. A boring tool, in particular a drill, is also disclosed with a shaft, a cutter, at least one internal lubricant channel and at least one reservoir being fitted as a dispenser for the lubricant. The reservoir is directly or indirectly connected to the drill by mechanical connections and to the at least one lubricant channel to permit the passage of lubricant. In addition, a tool holder designed to hold the drill is disclosed. The tool holder has an internal dispenser for the lubricant. The dispenser is connected, when the drill is fixed in place, to the at least one lubricant channel in the drill to permit the passage of lubricant.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 1998Date of Patent: September 12, 2000Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AG Werkzeuge + HartstoffeInventors: Dirk Kammermeier, Bernhard Borschert

Patent number: 5904455Abstract: A drill with a drill point part that contains the drill cutter and is made of a solid hard material. The drill point part is replacably attached to the end face of a drill shaft. The drill shaft is penetrated by a shaft groove which extends in an axial direction of the shaft to accomodate the drill point part and can center the drill point part in the groove region. The drill shaft has grooves on its periphery which run in the axial direction and extend into the region of the shaft groove and continue into the region of the drill point part. The drill point part can be clamped on its side faces corresponding to and opposite the groove flanks in a force-locking manner by an insertion-clamping fit in the shaft groove.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 1997Date of Patent: May 18, 1999Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AGInventors: Ulrich Krenzer, Gebhard Mueller, Horst Jager

Patent number: 5873683Abstract: A drilling tool, in particular a drill, has replaceable cutting elements that form the cutting edges, and chip-removing flutes. A chip shaping area (22) at least partially made of a more wear-resistant material than the drill body itself is arranged next to the faces (11) of the main cutting edges (5) approximately in the chip flow direction. In another embodiment, the chip shaping area if made of the same material as the drill body and is subjected to a subsequent local hardening process that makes it wear-resistant.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 1997Date of Patent: February 23, 1999Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AG Werkzeuge + HartstoffeInventor: Ulrich Krenzer

Patent number: 5848858Abstract: A milling cutter is provided with a base body that can be driven in a rotating manner around its longitudinal axis. Support bodies are distributed over the surface of the base body and are supported from centrifugal forces by a base body stopper and are positioned in tension against the base body stopper. The base body has an end face with a central area and a peripheral area around the central area, which central area is recessed with respect to the peripheral area. The central area and peripheral area together forming a step which acts as the base body stopper. The support bodies comprise a counter-step which can interlock with the base body, and a mounting plate is positioned at the end face to support the support bodies.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 1996Date of Patent: December 15, 1998Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AGInventors: Horst Jager, Gebhard Muller

Patent number: 5829926Abstract: A rotary drill comprising a shaft of full carbide metal which shaft is to be connected to the driving spindle of a machine tool. The shaft contains helically extending ducts which run adjacent to one another through the shaft, substantially longitudinally, for transporting cooling fluid to the cutting edge of the drill. At least two of the ducts are covered by a common sealing plate adjacent the cutting end of the shaft, with the sealing plate being a distance from the cutting edges of the drill, to create a closed fluid flow path between the ducts to permit dry operation of the drill.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 1996Date of Patent: November 3, 1998Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AGInventor: Dirk Kammermeier

Patent number: 5800100Abstract: The invention pertains to a drilling tool for drilling in solid metal. It comprises a base body with flutes for chip removal and two interchangeable inserts (1) designed especially as reset bits, having the same shape and size and being arranged in a recess at the end of a flute at the front of the base body. The inserts (1) are situated at different radial distances from the drilling tool axis (30) with overlapping work ranges. The blade (4,4a) of the insert (1) is formed by two cutting edges (10, 10a) and (14, 14a) which together form an obtuse point angle (18). The insert (1) is characterized by an extended form in its longitudinal direction L with channel-like troughing of its faces (3) running essentially in the longitudinal direction and by an arrangement of the blades (4,4a) at the channel ends. Furthermore, the channel has a base surface (9) which with its longer parallelogram sides (6,7) forms an acute angle (8) with the longitudinal axis (2) of the insert (1).Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 1997Date of Patent: September 1, 1998Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AG Werkzeuge + HartstoffeInventor: Ulrich Krenzer

Patent number: 5678960Abstract: The invention relates to a twist drill, especially for metals. It has a substantially cylindrical basic component (1) divided into a shaft (2) and a cutting section (3), the central longitudinal axis (5) of which is the axis of rotation of the twist drill. Several swarf grooves (4, 4') are made in the cylindrical surface of the basic component (1) which extend spirally and continuously from the shaft (2) to the drill tip (6) and bound a swarf chamber (35). The feature of the twist drill is that its drill core diameter tapers continuously from the drill tip (6) to the shaft (2).Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 1996Date of Patent: October 21, 1997Assignee: Kennametal Hertel AGInventors: Werner Just, Dieter Muhlfriedel
