Abstract
A deburring tool that includes a deburring arm which is held in a flexible relationship with respect to an arbor of the deburring tool. In some implementations, the deburring tool is capable of drilling a hole, deburring the hole with the deburring arm, and machining one or more features in the hole, such as an end chamfer. A plurality of attachment elements are located in the arbor to engage the deburring arm. The deburring tool may also include a second deburring arm that is particularly oriented with respect to one or more cutting elements used for drilling the hole.
Claims20
A deburring tool, comprising:
- an arbor having a rearward end, a forward end, and an elongated slot generally extending in an axial direction of the arbor;
- a deburring arm attached in the elongated slot of the arbor and having an attachment end and a deburring end;
- and
- a plurality of attachment elements including first and second attachment elements, the first attachment element is located at a first axial position along the arbor and the second attachment element is located at a second axial position along the arbor that is closer to the forward end than the first axial position;
- wherein the first attachment element engages the attachment end of the deburring arm and the second attachment element maintains the deburring arm in the elongated slot so that the deburring arm is configured to flex between a radially extended deburring position and a radially retracted non-deburring position during use of the deburring arm.
A deburring tool, comprising:
- an arbor having a rearward end, a forward end, and first and second elongated slots generally extending in an axial direction of the arbor;
- first and second deburring arms attached in the first and second elongated slots of the arbor, each of the first and second deburring arms having an attachment end and a deburring end;
- and
- first and second cutting elements attached at the forward end of the arbor, the first and second cutting elements are arranged as a drill bit for creating a bore;
- wherein the first deburring arm is attached in the first elongated slot at a first circumferential position on the arbor and the second deburring arm is attached in the second elongated slot at a second circumferential position on the arbor that is diametrically offset with respect to the first circumferential position.
