## Abstract

A cutting device that facilitates a cutting operation of a glass substrate and reduces internal defects that can be caused by surface cracks. The cutting wheel includes a cutting blade formed along a circumference thereof with respect to a rotation axis, wherein first and second slopes of the cutting blade are formed in an asymmetrical shape about an edge of the cutting blade where the first and second slopes meet each other.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A cutting wheel, comprising:
a center body having third and fourth sides substantially parallel and opposite to each other;
a cutting blade formed along a circumference of the center body of the cutting wheel with respect to a rotational axis of the cutting wheel, said cutting blade having first and second sides which are intersected by the third and fourth sides, respectively and which are formed in an asymmetrical shape about a vertical line crossing a cutting edge where the first and second sides meet each other, the cutting blade comprising:
a cutting tip formed asymmetrically about the vertical line on a peripheral edge of the cutting blade and including the cutting edge; and
a portion positioned between the center body of the cutting wheel and the cutting tip of the cutting blade, an interface positioned between the cutting tip and the portion of the cutting blade crossing the cutting blade, intersecting the first and second sides, and not crossing any of the third and fourth sides of the center body.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The cutting wheel of claim 1, wherein lengths of the cutting tip, which extend in directions parallel to the first and second sides, are L1 and L2, the lengths, L1 and L2, meet the inequality L1>L2.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The cutting wheel of claim 1, the interface of the cutting tip and the portion of the cutting blade is parallel to the rotational axis of the cutting wheel.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The cutting wheel of claim 1, wherein the cutting tip has the interface of the cutting tip and the portion of the cutting blade inclined with respect to the rotational axis of the cutting wheel.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The cutting wheel of claim 1, further comprising a plurality of saw blades that protrude from a circumference of the cutting blade.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The cutting wheel of claim 1, wherein the cutting tip is a diamond tip or a cemented carbide tip.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The cutting wheel of claim 1, wherein a cutting groove conforming to the shape of the cutting edge is formed in a substrate with the application of pressure by the cutting wheel onto the substrate.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The cutting wheel of claim 7, comprised of the first side having the first side of the cutting blade being configured to apply greater force to the substrate when the cutting device is forming the cutting groove than force applied by the second side having the second side of the cutting blade onto the cutting groove.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The cutting wheel of claim 8, wherein more surface cracks are created in the substrate on a side of the cutting grove corresponding to the first side having the first side of the cutting blade than surfaces cracks created on another side of the cutting groove corresponding to the second side having the second side of the cutting blade.
