Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A base material for a hard sintered body includes a pillar portion having a central axis and extending in the axial direction of the central axis. The pillar portion has a first outer peripheral portion, a second outer peripheral portion, and a protruding stripe portion. In the cross-sectional view, one side portion of the first outer peripheral portion extending in a circumferential direction or a radial direction is located inside the other side portion. In the cross-sectional view, one side portion of the second outer peripheral portion extending in the circumferential direction or the radial direction is located outside the other side portion in the radial direction. The protruding stripe portion is located in a connection portion between the other side portion of the first outer peripheral portion and one side portion of the second outer peripheral portion, and protrudes outward.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A hard sintered body comprising: a base material for a hard sintered body including a pillar portion having a central axis and extending in an axial direction of the central axis; and a cylinder portion having a cylindrical shape that covers the pillar portion from an outside in a radial direction, having a lower coefficient of linear expansion and a higher hardness than the base material for the hard sintered body, and sintered integrally with the base material for the hard sintered body, wherein the pillar portion has; a first outer peripheral portion disposed in an outer peripheral portion of the pillar portion, and forming a part of the outer peripheral portion, a second outer peripheral portion disposed in the outer peripheral portion of the pillar portion, and forming a part of the outer peripheral portion, and a protruding stripe portion of the base material located in a connection portion between the first outer peripheral portion and the second outer peripheral portion which are connected to each other in a cross-sectional view perpendicular to the central axis, and extending in the axial direction, in the cross-sectional view, one side portion of the first outer peripheral portion extending in a circumferential direction or the radial direction is located inside an other side portion of the first outer peripheral portion in the radial direction, in the cross-sectional view, one side portion of the second outer peripheral portion extending in the circumferential direction or the radial direction is located outside an other side portion of the second outer peripheral portion in the radial direction, the protruding stripe portion of the base material is located in a connection portion between the other side portion of the first outer peripheral portion and the one side portion of the second outer peripheral portion, and protrudes outward in the radial direction, the cylinder portion has; a first inner peripheral portion disposed in an inner peripheral portion of the cylinder portion, and forming a part of the inner peripheral portion, a second inner peripheral portion disposed in an inner peripheral portion of the cylinder portion, and forming a part of the inner peripheral portion, and a recessed stripe portion of the cylinder portion located in the connection portion between the first inner peripheral portion and the second inner peripheral portion which are connected to each other in the cross-sectional view, and extending in the axial direction, in the cross-sectional view, one side portion of the first inner peripheral portion extending in the circumferential direction or the radial direction is located inside an other side portion of the first inner peripheral portion in the radial direction, in the cross-sectional view, one side portion of the second inner peripheral portion extending in the circumferential direction or the radial direction is located outside an other side portion of the second inner peripheral portion in the radial direction, the recessed stripe portion of the cylinder portion is located in a connection portion between the other side portion of the first inner peripheral portion and the one side portion of the second inner peripheral portion, and is recessed outward in the radial direction, the first outer peripheral portion and the first inner peripheral portion are bonded to each other, the second outer peripheral portion and the second inner peripheral portion are bonded to each other, the protruding stripe portion of the base material and the recessed stripe portion of the cylinder portion are bonded to each other, in the cross-sectional view, an angle at which the first outer peripheral portion is inclined with respect to a second straight line is 4° or larger and 90° or smaller, where the second line being orthogonal to a first straight line passing through an outer end portion of the first outer peripheral portion and the central axis, and extending in the radial direction, and in the cross-sectional view, the first outer peripheral portion has a concave curve shape, and the second outer peripheral portion has a concave curve shape. 2. The hard sintered body according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of the first outer peripheral portions are provided at an interval from each other in the circumferential direction, and in the cross-sectional view, all of the angles of the plurality of first outer peripheral portions are equal to each other. 3. The hard sintered body according to claim 1 , wherein the base material for the hard sintered body has a Young's modulus of 300 GPa or higher, and the cylinder portion has a Young's modulus of 600 GPa or higher. 4. The hard sintered body according to claim 1 , wherein the base material for the hard sintered body is made of any one of cemented carbide, cermet, and ceramics, and the cylinder portion is made of any one of polycrystalline diamond and polycrystalline cubic boron nitride. 5. The hard sintered body according to claim 1 , wherein the angle is 10° or larger and 30° or smaller. 6. A cutting tool comprising: a cutting portion in which a chip discharge groove and a cutting edge which extend in an axial direction are provided in an outer peripheral portion of the hard sintered body according to claim 1 ; and a shank connected to the cutting portion in the axial direction, wherein the cutting edge is disposed in the cylinder portion. 7. The cutting tool according to claim 6 , wherein when viewed in the radial direction, the other side portion of the first outer peripheral portion and the cutting edge intersect with each other. 8. The cutting tool according to claim 6 , wherein a plurality of the first outer peripheral portions are provided at an interval from each other in the circumferential direction, one or more of the cutting edges are provided, and the number of the first outer peripheral portions is equal to or more than the number of the cutting edges.
