Abstract
A tool for cutting machining comprises a tool body, a cutting member and a fastener for fastening the cutting member to the tool body. The tool body has a shank, a central bore formed therethrough, and a front surface having grooves formed therein. The cutting member includes a cemented carbide body having a cutting edge formed in a front surface thereof, and a rear supporting surface. The supporting surface includes ridges received in the grooves, and a rearwardly open blind hole. The fastener extends through the central bore and is threadedly connected to the blind threadedly connected to the blind bore for pulling the cutting member against the tool body.
Claims6
A tool for rotary cutting machining, comprising:
- a tool body defining a longitudinal axis and including a shank terminating in a front surface;
- a cutting member formed of cemented carbide, said cutting member having a cutting edge on a forwardly facing surface thereof, and including a rearwardly facing support surface engaging said front surface of said tool body, said support surface including a rearwardly open blind hole;
- said support surface and said front surface including mutually engaging projections and recesses, said projections comprising parallel and linear ridges, and said recesses comprising parallel and linear grooves receiving respective ones of said ridges;
- a fastener disposed partly in said tool body and partly in said blind hole and exerting an axially rearward force on said cutting member for pressing said support surface of said cutting member against said front surface of said tool body, said fastener extending axially in said tool body, and said blind hole being axially aligned with said fastener;
- and
- flush channels formed in said tool body and in said cutting member and aligned with one another, said flush channels extending through said ridges and said grooves of conducting flushing fluid through said tool body and to said cutting edge.
A tool for rotary cutting machining, comprising:
- a tool body defining a longitudinal axis and including a shank terminating in a front surface;
- a cutting member formed of cemented carbide, said cutting member having a cutting edge on a forwardly facing surface thereof, and including a rearwardly facing support surface engaging said front surface of said tool body, said support surface including a rearwardly open blind hole;
- said support surface and said front surface including mutually engaging projections and recesses, said projections comprising parallel linear ridges, and said recesses comprising parallel linear grooves receiving respective ones of said ridges, said grooves including bottoms, and the ridges including crests, said crests spaced axially from said bottoms to form a gap therebetween, said ridges defining a substantially sinusoidal curve, and said grooves defining a substantially trapezoidal curve, an axial height of each ridge being 50 to 95 percent of an axial depth d of said groove;
- and a fastener disposed in said tool body and said blind hole for pressing said tool body and said cutting member toward one another.
