  • Patent number: 5201613
    Abstract: A single point adjustable triangular carbide cutting insert holder designed to clamp the cutting insert with maximum possibility for regrind or grinding for secondary operations. The insert holder is arranged for use in a milling machine and is collet-mounted by its shank. The jaw clamps can be removed for placement of the cutting insert between them, and are then refitted in the cavity where they are tightened by adjustment of a screw. As the screw is tightened, the jaw clamps are drawn further within the cavity, and are rigidly clamped against the cavity walls by frictional contact. When partially released, the jaws can be rotated within the cavity, enabling direct adjustment of the cutting insert rake and relief angle as desired. The cutting insert is seated between the jaw clamps on a seating cam mounted at an edge of the inner jaw face, such that the exposed portion of the cutting insert is a maximum.
