Abstract:
An indexable cutting insert has a first corner edge forming a front tip of a cutting edge portion configured to project furthest in the direction of an axis of rotation of an end mill tool receiving the insert. A major cutting edge is descending to come closer to the lower surface of the insert along its extension away from the first corner edge. The minor cutting edge extends from the first corner edge while descending from a point of the cutting edge portion most distant to the lower surface all the way to an inner corner of the insert and has a length of 80%-95% of the length of the major cutting edge including a second corner edge in a side elevation view of the cutting insert.

Claim (Index 1):
An indexable cutting insert for an end mill tool, the cutting insert comprising:\n a lower surface configured to be supported by a support face of a pocket of a tool body of the end mill tool; a top surface; and a peripheral side surface connecting the lower surface and the top surface, the cutting insert having a hexagonal basic shape as seen perpendicularly to the top surface and having two straight long sides and two v-shaped short sides, the cutting insert being double-sided such that the lower and top surfaces are identical and a cutting edge portion is formed at an intersection of each of the lower and top surfaces with the peripheral side surface of the insert along each v-shaped short side, wherein each cutting edge portion includes a first corner edge forming a front cutting tip on the v-shaped short side, the corner edge projecting furthest in a direction of an axis of rotation of said end mill tool in a state of use, a major cutting edge extending from said first corner edge in a first direction on the v-shaped short side, the major cutting edge extending outward to a second corner edge located at an outer corner of the end mill tool in the state of use, and a first minor cutting edge extending from the first corner edge in a second direction on the v-shaped short side, opposite to the first direction of the major cutting edge, the first minor cutting edge extending towards an inner corner of the insert in the state of use, wherein the four first corner edges are intersected by a symmetry plane dividing the insert into two equal parts and being perpendicular to the lower and top surfaces, such that the major cutting edge is descending so as to come closer to the lower surface of the insert along an extension away from the first corner edge, and wherein the first minor cutting edge extends from said first corner edge while descending from a point of the cutting edge portion most distant from the lower surface to the inner corner of the insert and has a length of 80%-95% of the length of the major cutting edge including the second corner edge in a side view of the insert.
