Abstract

A cutting insert and a cutting tool having same. The cutting insert includes: an upper surface; a lower surface having a flat surface; a fastening hole penetrating the upper surface and the lower surface; side surfaces each connecting to the upper surface and the lower surface; and cutting edges formed by the upper surface and the side surfaces. A first cutting edge is inclined downward. A major side surface comprises a first major side surface connected to the upper surface so as to constitute the first cutting edge, and a second major side surface connected to the first major side surface and the lower surface. A minor side surface comprises a first minor side surface connected to the upper surface so as to constitute a second cutting edge, and a third minor side surface connected to the upper surface and the lower surface.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A cutting insert, comprising:
an upper surface; a lower surface having a flat surface; a fastening hole penetrating the upper surface and the lower surface; side surfaces each connecting to the upper surface and the lower surface; and cutting edges formed by the upper surface and the side surfaces,
wherein a first cutting edge among the cutting edges is inclined downward from one side to the other side,
a major side surface among the side surfaces comprises a first major side surface connected to the upper surface so as to constitute the first cutting edge, and a second major side surface connected to the first major side surface and the lower surface, wherein the first major side surface has a negative surface, and the second major side surface has a positive surface, and
a minor side surface among the side surfaces comprises a first minor side surface connected to the upper surface so as to constitute a second cutting edge, a second minor side surface connected to the first minor side surface and the lower surface, and a third minor side surface connected to the upper surface and the lower surface, wherein the first minor side surface has a positive surface, the second minor side surface has a positive surface or a negative surface, and the third minor side surface has a negative surface.

2. The cutting insert of claim 1 , wherein, when the second minor side surface has the positive surface, the first minor side surface is formed at a positive angle that is less than the positive angle of the first minor side surface.

3. The cutting insert of claim 1 , wherein the first major side surface and the third minor side surface serve as a mounting surface when the cutting insert is mounted on a cutting tool.

4. The cutting insert of claim 1 , wherein, when seen on a plan view, the cutting insert has upper and lower portions divided into 180-degree rotational symmetry with reference to a center of the fastening hole by a first centerline passing through the center of the fastening hole in a transversal direction.

5. The cutting insert of claim 1 , wherein, when seen on a plan view, the cutting insert has left and right portions divided into 180-degree rotational symmetry with reference to a center of the fastening hole by a second centerline passing through the center of the fastening hole in a longitudinal direction.

6. The cutting insert of claim 1 , wherein the one side is a high portion, and the other side is a low portion, and the upper surface is inclined from the high portion toward the fastening hole.

7. The cutting insert of claim 1 , wherein an angle of inclination of the first cutting edge is 3 degrees or more and 20 degrees or less.

8. A cutting tool with the cutting insert as set forth in claim 1 mounted thereon,
wherein the cutting tool is provided with a mounting sheet surface for mounting with the cutting insert, and
the mounting sheet surface comprises
a first major side surface sheet surface, a third minor side surface sheet surface, and a lower surface sheet surface, each being in contact with, and having corresponding shapes to the first major side surface, the third minor side surface, and the lower surface.

9. A cutting tool with the cutting insert as set forth in claim 1 mounted thereon,
wherein the cutting tool is provided with a mounting sheet surface for mounting with the cutting insert, and
the mounting sheet surface comprises
a first major side surface sheet surface, a third minor side surface sheet surface, and a lower surface sheet surface, each being in contact with, and having corresponding shapes to the first major side surface, the third minor side surface, and the lower surface.

10. A cutting tool with the cutting insert as set forth in claim 2 mounted thereon,
wherein the cutting tool is provided with a mounting sheet surface for mounting with the cutting insert, and
the mounting sheet surface comprises
a first major side surface sheet surface, a third minor side surface sheet surface, and a lower surface sheet surface, each being in contact with, and having corresponding shapes to the first major side surface, the third minor side surface, and the lower surface.

11. A cutting tool with the cutting insert as set forth in claim 3 mounted thereon,
wherein the cutting tool is provided with a mounting sheet surface for mounting with the cutting insert, and
the mounting sheet surface comprises
a first major side surface sheet surface, a third minor side surface sheet surface, and a lower surface sheet surface, each being in contact with, and having corresponding shapes to the first major side surface, the third minor side surface, and the lower surface.

12. A cutting tool with the cutting insert as set forth in claim 4 mounted thereon,
wherein the cutting tool is provided with a mounting sheet surface for mounting with the cutting insert, and
the mounting sheet surface comprises
a first major side surface sheet surface, a third minor side surface sheet surface, and a lower surface sheet surface, each being in contact with, and having corresponding shapes to the first major side surface, the third minor side surface, and the lower surface.

13. A cutting tool with the cutting insert as set forth in claim 5 mounted thereon,
wherein the cutting tool is provided with a mounting sheet surface for mounting with the cutting insert, and
the mounting sheet surface comprises
a first major side surface sheet surface, a third minor side surface sheet surface, and a lower surface sheet surface, each being in contact with, and having corresponding shapes to the first major side surface, the third minor side surface, and the lower surface.

14. A cutting tool with the cutting insert as set forth in claim 6 mounted thereon,
wherein the cutting tool is provided with a mounting sheet surface for mounting with the cutting insert, and
the mounting sheet surface comprises
a first major side surface sheet surface, a third minor side surface sheet surface, and a lower surface sheet surface, each being in contact with, and having corresponding shapes to the first major side surface, the third minor side surface, and the lower surface.

15. A cutting tool with the cutting insert as set forth in claim 7 mounted thereon,
wherein the cutting tool is provided with a mounting sheet surface for mounting with the cutting insert, and
the mounting sheet surface comprises
a first major side surface sheet surface, a third minor side surface sheet surface, and a lower surface sheet surface, each being in contact with, and having corresponding shapes to the first major side surface, the third minor side surface, and the lower surface.

16. The cutting tool of claim 8 , wherein the first major side surface sheet surface, the third minor side surface sheet surface, and the lower surface sheet surface are flat surfaces.
