A cutting tool has a tool body having at least one pocket, at least one cutting insert releasably fixed to the pocket and a fastening device for securing the insert in the pocket. The pocket has a raised portion) with a flat upper support face arranged to be received in a recess of the insert and support the insert by receiving a bottom surface of the recess bearing on the support face. A projecting member of the raised portion has delimiting walls designed to bear against border walls of the recess of an insert for establishing mutual contact therewith and prevent rotation of the insert in the pocket by receiving a rotational moment acting on the insert in an active chip-removing state of the tool.

A stump cutter bit for use with a stump cutting apparatus of the type utilizing a cutting wheel or drum rotated about a rotational axis wherein the cutting tool is attached to the cutting wheel or drum. The cutting tool supports the stump cutter bit. The cutting bit having a front face including a plurality of surfaces including an outer surface, an inner surface, and in intermediate surface located between the outer and inner surface.

A cutting tool includes a cutting insert having an anti-rotation stopping indent formed in a transition between a bottom surface and a side surface thereof and includes a first stop surface. The insert seat has at least one anti-rotation stop, which protrudes with respect to a side wall of the insert seat and includes a second stop surface. The anti-rotation stop is arranged to inhibit rotation of the cutting insert in the insert seat by contact between the first and second stop surfaces. The second stop surface is completely located within the anti-rotation stopping indent when the cutting insert is mounted. As seen in a section perpendicular to a common central axis, an angle of less than 180? is formed between a tangent to the second stop surface and a tangent to the first duct at a transition between the two.

An indexable mill includes a tool holder and an indexable bit. The tool holder has a positioning shaft whose one side is provided with a braking block that has curved mortises. The positioning shaft is centrally provided with a threaded hole. The indexable bit is centrally provided with a positioning hole. The positioning hole of the indexable bit has its one side formed with a braking notch. The plug-socket like connection between the positioning shaft of the tool holder and the positioning hole of the indexable bit provides a first positioning function. The wrapping, curved surface contact between the braking block and the braking notch provides a second positioning function. The dual positioning enhances stability and rigidity of the combination.

A technical object of the present disclosure is to provide an insert, which can maintain rigidity thereof regardless of a clearance angle of a clearance surface that forms a circular cutting edge. To this end, the insert according to the present disclosure includes a circular upper surface, a circular lower surface, and a clearance surface portion connecting the upper surface and the lower surface. The clearance surface portion is divided into first and second clearance surfaces along a circumference thereof, by a first wave line that forms a waveform of valleys facing the lower surface and mounts facing the upper surface.

Provided is a milling/cutting tool including: a tool main unit that is rotated about an axis; and a plurality of tips that are disposed at one end surface of the tool main unit with spacings therebetween in a circumferential direction about the axis of the tool main unit, wherein the individual tips are disposed so that turning rake surfaces thereof are inclined in the axial directions.

A cutting insert includes an upper surface, a lower surface, a side surface, and an upper cutting edge. The upper cutting edge includes a major cutting edge having an outwardly projecting curvilinear shape, and a minor cutting edge having a straight line shape and being continuous with the major cutting edge. The side surface includes a continuous inclined surface with the major cutting edge and is inclined outward from the upper surface to the lower surface with respect to a virtual straight line connecting the respective centers of the upper and lower surfaces. An inclination angle of the inclined surface with respect to a virtual straight line on the side surface increases from a portion of the inclined surface which is continuous with an end portion of the major cutting edge to a portion of the inclined surface which is continuous with a center of the major cutting edge.

A cutting insert for machining has a substantially cylindrical main body with an axis, a lateral flank and opposing rake faces. Cutting edges are formed at the intersection of the flank and rake faces. The cutting edges have, in the direction of the axis, in each case at least two convexly curved sections which are connected together by concavely curved or substantially straight sections.

A cutting insert according to an embodiment of the present invention has an upper surface, a lower surface, a side surface connected to each of the upper surface and the lower surface, and a cutting edge located along an intersection of the upper surface and the side surface. The upper surface has a land surface disposed along the cutting edge, a rake surface which is located further inside than the land surface and is inclined so as to have a smaller height as departing from the land surface, and a bottom surface located further inside than the rake surface. The rake surface has a projection-shaped first region and a concave-shaped second region which are alternately disposed along the bottom surface. The first region has a first recess that reaches the second region adjacent to the first region.

In a circular cutting insert of the present invention, the upper side surface and the lower side surface each include: a plurality of planar restraining faces which are disposed sequentially in a circumferential direction of the upper side surface and the lower side surface so as to interpose a joint portion between each of the planar restraining faces and each have a side disposed on the side surface-intermediate line (N); and a plurality of antivibration restraining faces which are each disposed between two planar restraining faces adjacent through the joint portion and each include an inclined face, and the restraining faces of the lower side surface are disposed so as to be shifted with respect to the restraining faces of the upper side surface by a predetermined angle () around a central axis of a screw insertion hole.
