Abstract: A device and system for purifying a fluid is provided. The system includes a tank having an interior space and a media container disposed within the interior space. A valve is provided that cooperates with an element within the interior, the valve being movable between an open and a closed position. The valve being biased to the open position when the element is not positioned within the interior space, wherein the interior space is fluidly coupled to the atmosphere in the open position. The valve further being configured to move to a closed position when the element is positioned within the interior space.

Abstract: An indexable, on edge, reversible cutting insert for use with a boring toolhead, comprising a body having parallelogram shaped top and bottom seating faces equipped with an off center aperture there through, and at least one cutting face. The cutting face is equipped with a bidirectional chip breaker groove on each side of the cutting face to define an island, each side groove having a slotting, progressively deepening recess extending along the edge of said cutting face, said groove presenting an increasing incident angled and having a positive rake and an axial rake around the edge of the cutting face, which together form an obtuse angle, said groove forming at least two cutting corners diagonally apposed to each other. Each cutting corner is comprised of a scalloped radius formed in the island which intersects a chip directional flat formed in the groove, at an obtuse angle to form a bidirectional pocket area.

Abstract: A polygonal, lay down indexable cutting insert for eight feed and light depth of cut application. The insert has intermittent seating pads, chipbreaker pads, and stabilizer pads and is configured to allow coolant to be circulated across the body of the insert during cutting operations.

Abstract: Chip control insert having parallel side central aperture diamond configuration, a planar recess below peripheral cutting edges on each side, and characterized by a planar locating surface surrounding the central aperture with a substantial area recess intermediate the aperture and locating surface, said locating surface having corner and intermediate radial projections with inclined side walls to provide effective chip breaking.

Abstract: In a ceramic indexable cutting insert, an edge strengthening land extends rearwardly of a beveled cutting edge at an angle of from about 80 to about 100 degrees with respect to the peripheral side surface, and a grooved recess extents rearwardly and along the edge strengthening land to direct chips upwardly and outwardly away from the insert and the cutting edge. In one embodiment of the present invention intended for conditions of heavy depth of cut, enhanced edge strength is sacrificed and an edge strengthened land is not provided.

Abstract: A polygonal indexable cutting insert has a chip breaker with a backwall having a main portion spaced from the cutting edge and including a plurality lands as to deflect chips in a direction toward the center of the insert.

Abstract: A polygonal indexable cutting insert has a chip breaker with a backwall arranged in a sinuous path with the portion approaching the corner having a shallower slope than the main portion.

Abstract: A polygonal indexable cutting insert has a chip breaker with a backwall arranged in a sinuous path so as to deflect chips in a direction toward the center of the insert.

Abstract: In polygonal cutting insert, each of the respective parallel faces of the insert include a single chip breaker scallop positioned at each corner wherein the scallop is formed as segments of conical frustum having a particular orientation.
