Patent number: 11786981Abstract: A cutting insert has a plate shape centered on an insert center axis. The cutting insert includes a front surface and a back surface facing an insert axial direction, an outer peripheral surface facing outward in an insert radial direction, and a cutting edge at an intersecting ridge line between the front surface and the outer peripheral surface. The back surface has a flat shape perpendicular to the insert center axis. The outer peripheral surface includes a flank surface coupled. The flank surface is inclined inward in the insert radial direction as extending in the insert axial direction from the front surface side to the back surface side. The front surface includes a rake surface. The rake surface is inclined from a back surface side to a front surface side in the insert axial direction as extending inward in the insert radial direction from the cutting edge.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2020Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: SUBARU CORPORATIONInventors: Kinue Ito, Kenji Murai, Kiichi Yamazaki

Publication number: 20220250171Abstract: A rotary cutting method includes producing a processed product by rotary cutting of a workpiece by a rotary tool. The rotary tool has at least one cutting edge of which both of a first rake angle in a rotation radial direction and a second rake angle in a rotation axis direction are negative. The at least one cutting edge has a slanted face connected with a rake face forming the first and second rake angles. The slanted face is connected with the rake face at a ridge line. The slanted face faces a rotating direction of the rotary tool. An angle of the slanted face to the rotation axis direction is positive.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2022Publication date: August 11, 2022Inventors: Kinue ITO, Kenji MURAI, Shinichi YAJIMA, Takashi SUGIMOTO

Patent number: 10472590Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a crystallization method having excellent separation performance between a crystal fraction and a liquid fraction after crystallization in a dry-mode separation method employing stirring crystallization and compression filtration, whereby it becomes possible to produce an SUS-rich oil/fat from an SUS-containing oil/fat. In the dry-mode oil/fat separation for producing an SUS-rich oil/fat having an SUS content of 60% by weight or more from an SUS-containing oil/fat having an SUS content of 30% by weight or more, a crystalline S3 component is added to the SUS-containing oil/fat in an amount of 5 to 200 ppm by weight relative to the amount of the SUS-containing oil/fat at a temperature that is higher by 0 to 2° C. than a cloud point of the SUS-containing oil/fat so as to be mixed, and performing stirring crystallization.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2017Date of Patent: November 12, 2019Assignee: FUJI OIL HOLDINGS INC.Inventor: Kenji Murai

Patent number: 8772518Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method, whereby, in the dry fractionation of an oil or fat, a decrease in solid-liquid separation efficiency, said decrease being caused by the engulfment of a filtrate fraction into a crystal fraction after crystallization and press filtration, can be prevented and thus the crystal slurry can be efficiently separated after the crystallization. A method for the dry fractionation of an oil or fat, said method comprising, before or after crystallization, adding a definite amount of a filtration aid followed by mixing and then press-filtering the thus obtained crystal slurry. Thus, the crystal slurry can be easily separated into a crystal fraction with little engulfment of a liquid fraction and the liquid fraction.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2011Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignee: Fuji Oil Company LimitedInventors: Kenji Murai, Kazuhisa Ogawa, Shin Yoneda

Patent number: 8552211Abstract: Disclosed is a dry oil-and-fat separation method of high yield and high separation accuracy, which uses agitation and crystallization in order to prevent problems with thickening of the crystal slurry and decreased solid/liquid separation efficiency in the crystallization/press-filtering process of dry separation of oil-and-fat containing highly crystalline SUS. In dry separation, the crystallization/press-filtering process is divided into multiple steps and repeated, to concentrate the SUS in each crystal fraction and yield SUS-rich oil and fat. Subdivision into multiple steps makes it possible to keep the crystallinity of the crystal slurry in the crystallization/press-filtering process within a range so that the crystal slurry can be transported by pump, and to increase solid/liquid separation efficiency.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2010Date of Patent: October 8, 2013Assignee: Fuji Oil Company, LimitedInventors: Koreta Ueyama, Toshiaki Takahashi, Kenji Murai, Shin Yoneda
