  • Patent number: 8641334
    Abstract: An insert attached to a tool body of a hole machining tool having an attachment seat and a pressing member for pressing the insert to adjust the position of a peripheral cutting edge in a diameter direction of the tool. The insert has a panel shape. One surface of the insert in a thickness direction provides a seating surface, the other surface in the thickness direction provides a peripheral flank surface. A surface facing the rear side of the insert in a tool rotation direction provides a pressed surface in a state that the insert is attached to the attachment seat. A side surface facing the front side in the tool rotation direction provides an inclined surface, and a peripheral cutting edge is formed at a ridge portion outside of the inclined surface in the diameter direction of the tool.

  • Patent number: 8388269
    Abstract: A throw-away tip is mounted on a first tip mounting seat of a pin mirror cutter. In the throw-away tip, cutting edges are formed at intersecting ridgeline parts between a pair of oppositely disposed long side faces of a substantially trapezoidal flat-plate-shaped tip body, and upper and lower faces of the tip body. A thickness direction of the tip body is approximately aligned with a radial direction of the cutter body to provide curved edges formed in acute corner parts of the tip body for cutting. The tip is mounted on a second tip mounting seat of the pin mirror cutter such that the thickness direction of the tip body is approximately aligned with an axial direction of the cutter body to provide curved edges formed in obtuse corner parts of the tip body for cutting.

  • Patent number: 7182556
    Abstract: A drill improving the aligning accuracy of an insert and achieves a stable machining operation while maintaining the strength of the drill main body. The drill includes a drill main body rotatable about an axis, and a throwaway insert detachably attached to the drill main body. The drill main body includes a concave groove opening at a distal end face thereof, the concave groove includes guiding grooves extending in the direction of the axis on an inner surface thereof, the throwaway insert includes convex portions on an outer surface that are engageable with the guiding grooves, and the concave groove is formed so as to accommodate the throwaway insert. The throwaway insert is attached to the drill main body by insertion into the concave groove in a direction from the distal end face to the concave groove while engaging the convex portions with the guiding grooves.

  • Patent number: 7168893
    Abstract: In a throw-away tipped drill, a slit is formed at the bottom surface of a tip attachment seat which faces towards the end of its axial line direction, with this slit extending towards the rear of the axial line direction. Furthermore, when seen from the end of the axial line direction, this slit is arranged as being displaced so as to be closer to a second end portion into which a shaft portion of a clamp bolt is threaded than to a first end portion which is pressed by a head portion of that clamp bolt. As a result, when, using the clamp bolt, the pair of outer side surfaces of the tip are pressed by the pair of internal side surfaces of the tip attachment seat, the pressing forces are mutually equal to one another.

  • Patent number: 5839859
    Abstract: A cutting tool has a slidable cutting-blade chip 5A, in which a slider 7 is slidably mounted into a groove 6 formed in the cutting tool main body 1, to offset a pressing force applied to the bottom face 6c of the groove 6 through the slider 7, to prevent abrasion of the slider 7 and the groove 6 and uneven abrasion of serration grooves 7a and 8a of the slider 7 and a spacer 8, and to suppress backlash of the slider 7. A spacer 9 is detachably disposed between one side face 6a of a groove 6 and a slider 7, a plate 22 is disposed between another side face of the slider 7 and another side face 6b of the groove 6 so as to press the plate 22 toward the side face 6a. A protruding section 21 and a dent section 24 each have a V-shape cross-section and are formed on another side face of the slider 7 and on one side face of the plate 22, respectively, wherein the protruding section 21 and the dent section can come into contact with each other.
