Abstract
The countersink to form a conical chamfer at the mouth of a bore hole has a conical chamfering head, on which three separate cutting plates are arranged, symmetrically, the cutting plates being fastened to the chamfering head, but removable and changeable. A compatible sharpening device permits the introduction and mounting of the cutting plates, wherein the sharpening device has the same form or shape as the countersink, so that it is easy to resharpen the cutting plates to their original specifications.
Claims5
A chamfering tool for cutting a conical chamfer in the rim of a bore hole, and having a central main longitudinal axis, comprising,
- a main body and a conical chamfering head integral therewith, the chamfering head having a plurality of recesses distributed around said main longitudinal axis, and each including a pair of flat surfaces extending axially, and tangent to base circles, and directed horizontally in generally circumferential direction, said recesses disposed at less than 180.degree., but not less than 90.degree., relative to each other about the axis, each recess being without confining surfaces radially outwardly of said pair of surfaces thereby presenting a generally concave recess directed radially outwardly,
- a plurality of cutting plates separate from said integral body and head, one in each of said recesses and bearing against both of said surfaces in the recesses, and
- means detachably securing the cutting plates in said recesses, the securing means constituting the sole means confining the cutting plates against said surfaces.
