[0003] Various cutting inserts of this type are seated in insert housing pockets of the cutting body, which provide support for the cutting inserts in both axial and radial directions, for example, slot milling and face milling operations , although in some applications, for example, long-groove cutters and porcupine cutters, the cutter body may not support the cutting inserts in an axial direction.
[0004] US 2007/0286692 discloses a cutter that comprises a tool holder that has a plurality of pockets for insert accommodation, each pocket for insert accommodation housing an indexable (rotatable) cutting insert removably secured by means of a fixing screw.
[0005] Each pocket for insert accommodation includes a seating surface that has a threaded hole to accommodate the fixing screw, and a side meeting surface that has meeting portions facing axially and radially to support the cutting insert in both axial and radial directions.

[00083] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 10, 11, 21 and 22, each of the upper fixation portions UC1, UC2, UC3, UC4, and each of the lower LC1, LC2, LC3, LC4 may appear as single segments of upper and lower curved separate lines 58, 60 in cross sections made in the first and second horizontal planes PHI, PH2, respectively. The upper fixation portions UC1, UC2, UC3, UC4, can be circumferentially spaced apart from each other in the first horizontal plane PH1, while the lower fixation portions LC1, LC2, LC3, LC4 can be circumferentially spaced apart from each other in the second PH2 horizontal plane.
[00084] In other embodiments of the present invention (not shown) each of the upper fixation portions and each of the lower fixation portions can appear as single points on separate upper and lower straight lines, respectively.
[00085] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 10, 11, 21 and 22, the upper and lower curved lines 58, 60 can be concave inward, each having a radius of curvature R1, R2 centered around the central geometric axis A1.
[00086] In other embodiments of the present invention (not shown) the upper and lower curved lines can be convex inward.
[00087] In some embodiments of the present invention the radius of curvature R1, R2 of the upper and lower curved lines 58, 60 may be greater than the radii of the inscribed circles R3, R $ in cross sections of the fixing hole 38 made in the first and according to horizontal planes PH1, PH2, respectively.
[00088] In some embodiments of the present invention each of the upper attachment portions UC1, UC2, UC3, UC4, may be adjacent to one of the lower attachment portions LC1, LC2, LC3, LC4.
[00089] In the first embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 4, 6 and 7, adjacent upper first and lower first fixation portions UC1, LC1 can be generally diametrically opposed adjacent upper third and lower third fixation portions UC3, LC3, respectively, and adjacent upper second and lower second fixation portions UC2 , LC2 can be generally diametrically opposed adjacent to upper and lower fourth fixation portions UC4, LC4, respectively.
[00090] In the second embodiment of the present invention as shown in Figs. 15, 17 and 18, adjacent upper first and lower third fixation portions UC1, LC3 can generally be diametrically opposed to adjacent upper third and lower first UC3, LC1 respectively, and adjacent upper second and lower fourth UC2 fixation portions, LC4 can be generally diametrically opposed to upper fourth and lower second fixation portions UC4, LC2, respectively.
[00091] According to the present invention as shown in Figs. 6, 7, 17 and 18, upper imaginary lines LUI, LU2 tangential to at least two upper fixation portions UC1, UC2 and coplanar with the central geometric axis Al form first fixation angles ctl zero or acute with the central geometric axis Al, and lower imaginary lines LL1, LL2 tangential to at least two lower fixation portions LC1, LC2 and coplanar with the central geometric axis Al form second zero or acute fixation angles a2 with the central geometric axis Al.
[00092] The first and second attachment angles a1, a2 can be different and the imaginary upper and lower lines LUI, LU2, LL1, LL2 associated with the top surface 32 can extend in a direction above the top surface 32 without intercept the central geometric axis Al.
[00093] Each of the at least two upper fixation portions UC1, UC2 and each of the at least two lower fixation portions LCl, LC2 can be visible in a top view of the cutting insert 26, 126, as shown in Figs . 4 and 15.
[00094] In some embodiments of the present invention the first fixation angle a 1 may be greater than the second fixation angle a2.
[00095] In some embodiments of the present invention as shown in Figs. 5 to 7 and 16 to 18, first and third imaginary upper and lower lines LUI, LL1, LU3, LL3 associated with the first and third upper and lower fixation portions UC1, LCl, UC3, LC3 respectively, can be contained within a vertical foreground PV1, and second and fourth imaginary upper and lower lines LU2, LL2, LU4, LL4 associated with the second and fourth upper and lower fixation portions UC2, LC2, UC4, LC4, respectively, can be contained within one second vertical plane PV2.
[00096] Also, in some embodiments of the present invention, the first vertical plane PV1 can be perpendicular to the second vertical plane PV2 and the first and second vertical planes PV1, PV2 can contain the central geometric axis Al.
[00097] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 5 through 7 and 16 through 18, the cutting insert 26, 126 can be oriented on its respective seating surface 24, such that only the first and second upper fixation portions UC1, UC2 and the first and second fixation portions lower LCl, LC2 are operational. It should be appreciated that in this configuration there are no other points or regions of fastening contact between the fastening hole 30 and the fastening screw 44. Thus, only two separate spaced, but circumferentially adjacent, upper fixation portions, and only two portions of correspondingly spaced lower fixation, but circumferentially adjacent, can be operational in any seated orientation of the cutting insert 26, 126.
[00098] It can be easily understood that by indexing (rotating) the cutting insert 26, 126 180 ° around its central geometric axis Al only the third and fourth upper fixation portions UC2, UC4 and the third and fourth lower fixation portions LC3, LC4 will become operational.
[00099] In some embodiments of the present invention it can be appreciated that the fixation portions UC1, UC2, UC3, UC4, LC1, LC2, LC3, LC4 are configured optimally over the fixation hole 38, in such a way that each portion UC1, UC2, UC3, UC4, LC1, LC2, LC3, LC4 can be used in two indexed (rotated) positions of the cutting insert 26,126, a first of the two indexed positions for a given fixation portion that is rotated 90 ° in I take the central geometric axis A1 from a second of the two positions indexed to that fixation position. It will also be understood that in each indexing position there are two separate circumferentially spaced upper operating portions, and two separate circumferentially spaced lower operating portions, the upper operating portions being axially spaced apart along the central geometric axis Al from of their corresponding lower fixing operating portions.
[000100] In some embodiments of the present invention, the four operational fixation portions UC1, UC2, LC1, LC2, may have mirror symmetry around a third vertical plane PV3 that bisects the first and second vertical planes PVI, PV2.
[000101] Also in some embodiments of the present invention the third vertical plane PV3 can form an acute angle of up to 450 with the first and second vertical planes PVI, PV2.
[000102] In the first embodiment of the present invention the four operational fastening portions UC1, UC2, LC1, LC2, can be entirely located on one side of a fourth vertical plane PV4, the fourth vertical plane PV4 being perpendicular to the third vertical plane PV3.
[000103] In some embodiments of the present invention, each flank surface 40 may have a single flat meeting portion 62.
[000104] In other embodiments of the present invention (not shown) each flank surface may have more than one flat or non-flat meeting portion.
[000105] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 4 and 15, the flank surfaces 40 can be configured with a first flank surface 40a generally opposite a third flank surface 40c and a second flank surface 40b generally opposed to a fourth flank surface 40d. As shown in Figs. 5, 8, 9, 16, 19 and 20, first and third meeting planes PAI, PA2 tangential to the single meeting portion 62 on each of the first and third flank surfaces 40a, 40c, respectively, can be perpendicular to the third plan vertical PV3, and second and fourth planes meeting PA2, PA4 tangential to the single meeting portion 62 on each of the second and fourth flank surfaces 40b, 40d, respectively, can be perpendicular to the fourth vertical plan PV4. Thus, the first and third planes against PAI, PA3 can be symmetrical about the vertical plane PV4, while the second and fourth planes against PA2, PA4 can be symmetrical about the vertical plane PV3.
[000106] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 5, 8, 16 and 19, the cutting insert 26, 126 can be oriented on its respective seating surface 24, such that only the single meeting portion 62 associated with the first flank surface 40a is in meeting meeting with a support surface 64 on the tool body 22 and considered operational. It should be appreciated that in this configuration there are no other points or regions of contact between the peripheral lateral surface 36 and the cutting body 22. Also in this indexed position, due to the inclination of the geometric axis of screw A2 in relation to the central geometric axis Al , the screw A2 axis can intercept the foreground against PAI at a point below the insert seat surface 24.
[000107] It can easily be understood that by indexing the cutting insert 26, 126, 180 ° around its central geometric axis Al, only the single meeting portion 62 associated with the third flank surface 40c will become operational.
[000108] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 5 and 16, the support surface 64 can be divided into more than one support zone 64a, 64b.
[000109] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 6, 7, 17 and 18, the clamping screw 44 can simultaneously apply four clamping forces FUI, FUI. FL1, FL2 in the four operational clamping portions UC1, UC2, LCl, LC2 comprising a first upper and lower clamping force FUI, FL1 in the first upper and lower clamping portions UC1, LCl, respectively, and a second upper clamping force and lower FU2, FL2 in the first and second upper and lower fixation portions UC2, LC2, respectively.
[000110] Also, in some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 5 to 7 and 16 to 18, the first upper and lower clamping forces FUI, FL1 can add to a first final clamping force FF1 as a single vector within the first vertical plane PV1 and the second upper and lower clamping forces FU2, FL2 can add to a second final clamping force FF2 as a single vector within the vertical background PV2. The first and second final clamping forces FF1, FF2 can be substantially identical in magnitude, and the vectors associated with the first and second final clamping forces FF1, FF2 can be inclined at similar acute angles to the substantially flat insert seat surface. 24 and intercept the foreground PAI plane at points outside the boundary of the support surface 64.
[000111] The present invention is advantageous in that the four simultaneous clamping forces FUI, FUI, FL1, FL2 have a high degree of repeatability, and the two final clamping forces FF1, FF2 provide optimized stability and precise positioning of the cutting insert 26, 126 for applications where only a single flank surface 40 is operational.
[000112] In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 1, 5, 8, 12 16 and 19, the cutting tool 20, 120 can be in the form of a rotary cutting tool that has a longitudinal axis of rotation A3 and only the single meeting portion 62 associated with the first surface flank 40a can be operational and in contact with a radially facing outward support surface 64. Here, the cutting edge 42 associated with the third flank surface 40c can be operational.
