Abstract: In one aspect, the invention relates to a cutting insert having a front cutting edge (15a) and a connecting surface (7b) having male- and/or female-like engagement means (19a, 20a), in order to rigidly secure the cutting insert, a geometrically predetermined reference locus (C) serving as a force-application spot for the clamping of the cutting insert. Characteristic of the invention is that simultaneously active engagement means are of only two types,  viz.  a first, elongate engagement means (19a), which is located between the front cutting edge (15a) and the reference locus (C), as well as a second, elongate engagement means (20a), which is oriented at an angle to the first engagement means and situated at a greater distance from the front cutting edge than the reference locus. In such a way, it is guaranteed that a tightening force always is applied to the cutting insert in a substantially triangular area, which is defined by the free ends of the engagement means. Furthermore, the invention relates to a tool for chip removing machining, as well as an attachment, e.g., a shim plate, for such tools.

Abstract: A person making a handwritten signature performs a series of three-dimensional movements with a plane graphical finality. The movements generate kinetic information perceived by a special pen that the signature is performed with (the writing and digital acquisition device for the primary bio-kinetic information). The information, concordant to the afferent bio-kinetic pattern, is collected by included MEMS type acceleration sensors in the pen. The system analyzes the generated information (the signals) and determines the dynamic-biometrical characteristics based upon the biometrical dimension of the information. The characteristics are transformed into data vectors and invariants that are stored in a database. Based on algorithms, the system performs the required comparisons between the spatial kinetics of the specimens and the kinetics of the entrances and obtains distance-type answers. In statistical terms, the results are related to the entire subject database, by interpreting and sampling methods.
