Abstract: An object is to provide a tool holder that can efficiently supply a coolant to a flank and a cutting edge by preventing the leakage of a coolant and can accurately and stably supply a coolant so as to correspond to the shapes of various cutting edges or the types of cutting. A face, a flank, and a cutting edge forming an intersection ridge between the face and the flank are disposed at a leading end portion of a shaft-shaped tool body in a tool holder. A coolant supply passage is formed in the tool body, and a coolant ejection member is detachably provided at the leading end portion of the tool body. The coolant ejection member includes a tubular portion, and an ejection hole that communicates with the coolant supply passage through the inside of the tubular portion and opens toward the flank and the cutting edge.

Abstract: A cutting insert includes an insert body having a polygonal plate shape. Rake faces are formed on polygonal surfaces of the insert body, and flank faces are formed on lateral faces of the insert body arranged around the polygonal surfaces. Main cutting edges are formed on side ridges of the polygonal surfaces at intersecting ridgelines between the rake faces and the flank faces. Each main cutting edge extends between two corners adjacent to each other in a circumferential direction of the polygonal surface among corners of the polygonal surface. When seen from a direction opposing the rake face, one end portion of the main cutting edge that stretches to one corner of the two corners has a convexly curved shape, and the other end portion of the main cutting edge that stretches to the other corner of the two corners has a concavely curved shape.

Abstract: An insert for a drill in which one of the cutting edges respectively formed at four side ridge portions of a rake face of a square flat plate-shaped insert body is made to protrude toward the tip of the drill body of the indexable insert drill while being detachably attached is provided. Each of the cutting edges has a corner cutting edge located at a corner of the rake face, and a major cutting edge and a wiper edge which extend substantially toward one peripheral direction of the rake face from a corner cutting edge. The major cutting edge has a first major cutting edge portion which has a convexly curved shape and extends from the corner cutting edge, and a second major cutting edge portion which smoothly touches the first major cutting edge portion and extends linearly, as seen from a direction facing the rake face. The wiper edge has a straight shape intersecting the second major cutting edge portion at an obtuse angle.

Abstract: A cutting tool is provided with a tool body which rotates about an axis thereof, and a cutting insert mounted removably on the outer periphery at the tip of the tool body, wherein: the cutting insert has a front/back-reversal symmetric substantially regular heptagonal plane shape having two heptagonal faces parallel with each other, a side face continuous with each of the heptagonal faces at right angles, and a cutting edge provided on each ridge line between the heptagonal face and the side face; the cutting edge includes a main cutting edge projected onto the side of the regular heptagon, and sub-cutting edges that extend from opposite ends of the main cutting edge so as to incline toward the center of the heptagonal face and connect the adjacent main cutting edges, and the tool body is equipped with a mounting seat that retains the cutting insert such that one of the main cutting edge is directed toward the tip side of the tool body and in a radial-outer direction in order to make it to work in cutting, an

Abstract: A vibration damping tool having the following structure is provided. In the vibration damping tool, a hollow portion is formed in the interior of the distal end portion of a tool body and one end of a weight member is connected to the inner wall surface of the distal end side of this hollow portion. A gap created between the outer peripheral surface of the weight member and the inner wall surface of the hollow portion is filled with a visco-elastic body. The one end of the weight member is formed as a narrow diameter shaft portion. The tool body can be divided into two and freely removed from and reattached at a dividing surface located on the base end side of the hollow portion. A hole portion is formed inside the other end of the weight member by hollowing out the interior thereof. Chatter vibration is thus absorbed using a simple structure without there being any effects from heat generated during cutting processing.
