Furthermore, a cutting tool (10) is disclosed, having a tool holder (12) and an indexable cutting insert (13).

A cutting tool has an insert receiving pocket provided with a base surface. The base surface has a screw hole, and second and third engagement surfaces which are brought into contact with a first engagement surface formed in the lower surface of the cutting insert, thereby suppressing shifting of the cutting insert during cutting. The base surface is divided into four areas by a first boundary which passes through the screw hole's center point, and a second boundary is perpendicular to the first boundary and also passing though the center point. The second engagement part is formed on the outer side surface side relative to the first boundary and on the base end side relative to the second boundary, and the third engagement part is formed on the outer side surface side relative to the first boundary and on the leading end surface side relative to the second boundary.

A cutting tool holder (110) configured for mounting thereon a cutting insert (140). The cutting tool holder comprises a body (112) formed with an insert seat (120) configured receiving therein the cutting insert and a seat bore (135) configured for accommodating therein a fastening member (150). The cutting tool holder also comprises an anchoring element (170) received within the body of the holder, the fastening element being configured for secured engagement with the anchoring element and being free of such engagement with the seat bore.

A cutting tool holder (10) configured for mounting thereon a cutting insert (30) to form a cutting tool (1); the cutting insert (30) has a top face (32T), a bottom face (32B), at least one side wall (32S) extending between the top face (32T) and the bottom face (32B), and an insert bore (35) extending between the top face (32T) and the bottom face (32B); the cutting tool holder (10) comprises a body (12) and a fastening member (50), the body (12) comprising an insert seat (20) having a base surface (22) and being configured for receiving therein the cutting insert (30); and a seat bore (25) having an open end at the base surface (22); the fastening member (50) defines a fastening member axis (XFM) and comprises and shank portion (52) and a head portion (51) extending therealong; the shank portion (52) is configured for being received within the seat bore (25); and the head portion (51) comprises a first clamping region, and a second clamping region axially spaced therefrom and disposed between the shank portion (52) and the first clamping region; the fastening member (50) is configured for assuming a mounting position, in which the fastening member (50) remains in engagement with the seat bore (25) in the mounting position while allowing positioning of the cutting insert (30) into the insert seat (20), and a securing position in which the first and second clamping regions are disposed so as to engage two axially-spaced regions of the cutting insert (30) thereby securing it in the insert seat (20).

A metal cutting tool includes a tool holder, a seat in the tool holder defined by side walls and a bottom surface. A replaceable element formed by an insert seating anvil is positioned in the seat and secured by a fastening device. A cutting insert is supported on a base surface of the anvil. The anvil has a projecting element formed integrally with the anvil. The projecting element is rigid and has a dove tail shape in top view, wherein the projecting element base and lower surfaces form coplanar extensions of the base and lower surfaces of the rest of the anvil.

A tool for machining has a main body, a seat formed on the main body, a fastening screw, and a cutting insert. The seat has a base surface for supporting an underside of the cutting insert and a lateral bearing surface. A bore for receiving the fastening screw is formed in the base surface, the bore has a threaded bore portion and, closer toward the base surface, a thread-free bore portion. The cutting insert is fastened to the seat such that the head portion of the fastening screw is supported on the through-hole in the cutting insert. The threaded portion of the fastening screw engages with the threaded bore and the fastening screw is elastically deflected such that a thread-free shank portion bears against the thread-free bore portion on a side remote from the lateral bearing surface and is spaced apart from the thread-free bore portion.

A cutting tool includes a tool holder body having a shank portion and a head portion. The head portion has an insert seat, wherein a cutting insert is detachably mounted by means of a locking member. The seat includes at least one bottom surface on which the cutting insert rests. A coolant conveying member is integral with the tool holder body. A normal (N; N) to the at least one bottom surface intersects the coolant conveying member, such that the coolant conveying member at least partially covers the cutting insert. The coolant conveying member is spaced from the locking member and the cutting insert when viewed in side view.

A cutting tool includes a tool holder body having a shank portion and a head portion, and an indexable cutting insert arranged in a cutting insert seat. The cutting insert includes a cutting edge and a clearance surface. The insert seat has a first convex wall and a second convex wall and at least one bottom surface at which the cutting insert is arranged to abut. The convex walls are situated on separate pins, which are perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to each other when seen in a side view. The second convex wall is situated below the cutting edge.

A cutting tool assembly includes a shank, a shim, a cutting insert, a clamping lever and a set screw. The shank has an insert pocket with a base wall, a lever receiving portion and a screw hole. The shim is disposed on the base wall of the insert pocket and has a shim bore. The cutting insert is disposed on the upper surface of the shim and has an insert bore. The clamping lever is received in the lever receiving portion and clamps the cutting insert to the insert pocket. The clamping lever has first and second extension portions. The set screw is fastened to the screw hole and has a screw head, a threaded portion and an engaging groove. The engaging groove of the set screw engages the second extension portion. The shim includes an avoiding portion for avoiding an interference with the screw head.
