Title:
THREAD FORMING TAP
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/004890
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A thread forming tap (1) comprises a male thread (3), a groove, and an inner-diameter finishing tooth (61). A lead-in section (31) of the male thread (3) is provided so as to be continuous with a complete thread section (32) and decreases in diameter toward the tip. The groove is provided parallel to the axis across the complete thread section (32) and the lead-in section (31) so as to divide the thread ridges (71) of the male thread (3). The inner-diameter finishing tooth (61) is provided along the open end of the groove on the opposite side from the direction of rotation of the thread forming tap (1) in the lead-in section (31) and the complete thread section (32). The inner-diameter finishing tooth (61) shaves and removes the top part of the thread ridges of a female thread formed in a surface layer of a pilot hole (90). The height of a first-stage finishing tooth (611) of the inner-diameter finishing tooth (61) in the lead-in section (31) is lower than the height of a second-stage finishing tooth (612) of the inner-diameter finishing tooth (61) formed in a part corresponding to the thread ridge (71) at the leading edge in the complete thread section (32).
