Patent ID: 10357833

Abstract:
The technical objective of the present invention is to provide a cutting insert that can minimize a phenomenon in which the cutting insert is lifted up from a seat surface of a cutting tool while a cutting process is being performed, and can increase an area by which the cutting insert is fastened to the cutting tool. To this end, the cutting insert of the present invention comprises: a principal surface; a fastening surface opposite to the principal surface, the fastening surface being placed on the seat surface of the cutting tool; and a screw passage hole formed through each of central portions of the principal and fastening surfaces, wherein a screw is fastened to the cutting tool through the screw passage hole; and first and second long grooves extending across the fastening surface, wherein each of the first and second long grooves includes: a proximal sidewall adjoining a first adjacent fastening portion of the fastening surface and making an acute angle with the first adjacent fastening portion; a distal sidewall adjoining a second adjacent fastening portion of the fastening surface and making an angle with the second adjacent fastening portion; and a ceiling wall connecting the proximal and distal sidewalls, wherein the proximal sidewall is located closer to the screw passage hole than the distal sidewall is located to the screw passage hole.
