  • Patent number: 9393626
    Abstract: A cutting insert has a polygonal columnar shape and includes an upper surface, a lower surface, a side surface located between the upper surface and the lower surface, and a cutting edge formed at an intersection of the upper surface and the side surface. The upper surface includes a convex-shaped main part including a flat upper end surface, a first projection projecting from the main part to a corner part of the upper surface, a second projection projecting from the first projection toward the corner part, and a pair of third projections respectively projecting from the first projection toward a periphery of the upper surface that interpose at least a part of the second projection between the pair of third projections. A surface of the first projection is an inclined surface curved in a concave shape, and a surface of the second projection is a planar inclined surface.

  • Patent number: 8784014
    Abstract: A cutting insert according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an upper surface; a side surface; and a cutting edge located at an intersection region of the upper surface and the side surface. The upper surface includes a rake surface continuous with the cutting edge; and a rising surface inclined and lying at a higher position as going inward from the rake surface. The rake surface includes a pair of first raised parts respectively extending inward from near both ends of the cutting edge in a top view; and a second raised part extending from one of the pair of first raised parts to the other. A cutting tool including the cutting insert, and a method of manufacturing a machined product by using the cutting tool are also provided.
