Abstract: The instant invention is directed to an adjustment device for a multiple insert cutting tool with adjusting elements using a wedge to adjust the position of an insert in a tool body pocket through an intermediate component having expansion elements. The intermediate component is disposed in a cavity which is at least partly contiguous with a pocket containing an insert. The intermediate component engages the insert to be adjusted and, when expanded, adjusts the position of the insert.

Abstract: A tool assembly affording a wider range of adjustment of machining diameter, comprises a boring bar and a tool cartridge supporting a cutting tip and attached to the boring bar. The tool cartridge chassis is pivotably attached via a pin within a recess formed in boring bar; an adjustment screw is provided to a first side of the pivot axis, the screw being threaded into the cartridge chassis and situated in abutment with a surface of the bar. A compression spring is provided to a second side of the pivot axis, interposed between the boring bar and the cartridge chassis. Appreciable pivotal motion can be imparted to the cartridge chassis by loosening or tightening the adjustment screw. Adjustments can be made automatically by providing a draw-bar.

Abstract: A milling tool includes a milling body and a plurality of insert-carrying cartridges mounted in the milling body. Each cartridge includes front and rear side surfaces which oppose leading and trailing walls of a pocket formed in the milling body. The cartridge also includes inner and outer flank surfaces which interconnect the front and rear side surfaces. The body includes a slot which opens into the front side surface at a location intermediate the ends of the cartridge, to divide the body into a rigid base portion and an expandable portion. The base portion has a seat for a cutting insert. A threaded hole is formed in the slot intermediate the slot ends to receive a threaded wedge screw. Tightening of the screw causes the expandable portion to be expanded into contact with the leading wall of the pocket and thereby push the base portion into tight contact with the trailing wall of the pocket. Accordingly, the cartridge is secured within the pocket by a tight frictional contact which resists chafter. The cartridge carries an adjusting screw to enable the cartridge to be adjusted in a direction along the axis of rotation of the milling body.

Abstract: A rotatable cutting tool comprising a cutting tool body having at least one recess for receiving a replaceable insert. The recess has a wall defined by a deformable clamp extending radially from the tool body, the clamp comprising a leaf isolated from the tool body except at the base of the leaf by an isolating channel in the tool body. The tool further comprising adjustable clamping means for elastically deforming the leaf to retain a replaceable insert in the recess.

Abstract: A rotatable cutting tool has a shank portion for coupling to a tool driving device and a cutting portion to which is attached at least one support member for retention of a replaceable cutting element. The support member is so arranged to permit displacement of at least the portion thereof retaining the cutting element whereby the position of the cutting element relative to the body of the cutting tool may be changed by such displacement. A totally enclosed hydraulic force multiplier is mounted within an internal cavity of the cutting tool. The force multiplier is responsive to a control force to effect the displacement of the support member, the control force advantageously supplied by application of pneumatic pressure.

Abstract: An indexable turning insert has main upper and lower surfaces of polygonal shape joined by side surfaces. Insert corners are defined by the intersection of insert sides at each corner of the polygonal surfaces, insert corners having a curve of relatively small radius defining the nose of the corner. The inserts are at least partially symmetrical and have a plurality of identical cutting edges. Adjacent the corner nose of an identical cutting edge are wiping surfaces comprising at least one curved segment joining the insert corner radius and defined by a radius larger than the corner radius and at least one flat segment intersecting the insert side at a shallow angle.
