Abstract

A method of machining a workpiece is provided that is capable of forming a fresh air inlet in an arbitrary position in an outer shell of a container. According to the present invention, a method of machining a workpiece is provided that includes: machining to form a round hole in a workpiece using a boring drill having a tubular end portion, the end portion provided with a flat surface and a notch, and having a blade on a side of the notch, by pressing the flat surface against the workpiece while rotating the drill to contact the blade with the workpiece.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method of machining a workpiece, the workpiece being a delaminatable container including an outer shell and an inner bag, the inner bag delaminating from the outer shell to be shrunk along with a decrease in the contents,
the method comprising:
machining to form a fresh air inlet in the outer shell using a boring drill having a tubular end portion and a body portion and a hollow, the hollow extends from the body portion to the end portion, the end portion provided with a flat surface and a notch, and having a blade on a side of the notch, by pressing the flat surface against the outer shell round cut piece while rotating the drill to contact the blade with the outer shell, so that the outer shell is hollowed to form a round cut piece and the round cut piece is moved to an inner surface side of the end portion,
after separating the boring drill from the outer shell, emitting the round cut piece, kept on the inner surface of the end portion, from the edge of the drill by blowing air into the hollow of the drill.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the end portion of the drill has a C-shaped cross section.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the flat surface has a radial width from 0.1 to 0.2 mm.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the end portion has an inner surface provided with a tapered surface widening towards an end.
