Description

CUTTING INSERT AND CUTTING TOOL
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a cutting insert and a cutting tool for metal cutting operations in general and for cutting small radius internal corners in particular and also for ramp down cutting operations.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Such cutting tools, generally in the form of end mills and shell mills, are used in metal working applications in the manufacture of dies and molds and other structures having complex geometrical surfaces and extended shoulders. In these applications it is often required to produce internal corners of small radius, sometimes smaller than 0.5 mm. Generally, complex geometrical surfaces are produced in metal workpieces using ball nose end mills, or end mills with round cutting inserts. There are no ball nose end mills having replaceable cutting inserts that can produce internal corners having a radius as small as 0.5 mm. Also, there are no round cutting inserts having radii as small as 0.5mm.
When working a large surface of a workpiece, the most economical approach is to use cutting tools having large radii cutting inserts in order to produce the main large scale features of the surface and then to use tools having small radius cutting capability for producing small scale features and for reducing the radii of internal corners where needed.
Cutting inserts having small radius cutting capability are usually rhomboidal in shape, having a cutting nose (or corner) with the required small radius. An example of such a cutting insert and associated cutting tool is disclosed in EP 1 157 768 Al. The cutting insert has a positive geometry and therefore only two cutting corners.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a cutting insert having four cutting corners capable of cutting small radii internal corners in a workpiece. It is also an object of the present invention to provide a cutting tool such as an end mill capable of seating such a cutting insert.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a cutting insert and a cutting tool, of the aforementioned kind, that is also capable of carrying out ramp down cutting operations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Typically, the cutting insert is manufactured by form-pressing and sintering carbide powders. However, injection-molding techniques can also be used. In accordance with the present invention there is provided an indexable cutting insert, for use in a cutting tool for milling operations, comprising: two identical generally rhomboidal opposing end surfaces; a peripheral side surface extending between the two opposing end surfaces, the peripheral side surface being perpendicular to a median plane (M) of the cutting insert; two first cutting edges associated with each end surface, the two first cutting edges associated with a given end surface being parallel to each other, each first cutting edge forming a non-zero first angle with respect to the median plane M; and two corner cutting edges associated with each end surface, each corner cutting edge merging with one first cutting edge.
Preferably, there are further associated with each end surface two second cutting edges, the two second cutting edges associated with a given end surface being parallel to each other, each second cutting edge forming a non-zero second angle with respect to the median plane M, each comer cutting edge merging with one second cutting edge.
If desired, the first angle is different from the second angle.
Further if desired, the first angle is equal to the second angle
In accordance with the present invention, a continuous cutting edge section is associated with each comer cutting edge, a given cutting edge section comprising a given comer cutting edge and the first and second cutting edges merging with the given comer cutting edge.
Generally, the peripheral side surface comprises six component side surfaces, four of the component side surfaces being generally flat major side surfaces and two of the component side surfaces being diametrically opposing radiused corner side surfaces, each corner side surface being located between and merging with the two major side surfaces.
If desired, the peripheral side surface comprises two further component side surfaces in the form of two diametrically opposing generally flat minor side surfaces, each minor side surface being located between and merging with the two major side surfaces.
In accordance with the present invention, each end surface comprises a rake surface associated with each cutting edge section, the rake surface extending from the cutting edge section inwards towards the median plane M. Typically, the rake surface merges along a join with a rise that slopes upwardly from the join away from the median plane M.
Further typically, the rise associated with a given end surface extends from the join to the flat end region of the given end surface.
In accordance with the present invention, each flat end region is parallel to the median plane M.
If desired, the cutting insert is provided with a through bore passing through the flat end regions.
Quite generally, the cutting insert has 180° rotational symmetry about each of first, second and third axes of rotational symmetry Rl, R2, R3, the first axis Rl being perpendicular to the flat end regions, the second axis R2 passing through the minor side surfaces and the third axis R3 passing through the comer side surfaces.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Attention is first drawn to Figs. 1 to 4 showing an indexable cutting insert 10 in accordance with the present invention. The cutting insert 10 has two identical generally rhomboidal opposing end surfaces 12 with a peripheral side surface 14 extending therebetween. Each end surface 12 is bounded by a peripheral edge 16 at which the end surface 12 and the peripheral side surface 14 merge. Each peripheral edge 16 comprises two continuous cutting edge sections 18 separated by two non-cutting edge sections 20. Adjacent each cutting edge section 18 is a groove 22 which borders a generally flat end region 24 of the end surface 12. Therefore, the cutting insert 10 has two opposing flat end regions 24. The two opposing flat end regions 24 are parallel to each other and to a median plane M of the cutting insert 10 which is located midway between the flat end regions 24.
The peripheral side surface 14 is perpendicular to the median plane M and comprises eight component side surfaces, namely, four generally flat major side surfaces 26, two diametrically opposing radiused comer side surfaces 28 and two diametrically opposing generally flat minor side surfaces 30. Each minor side surface 30 is located between and merges with the two major side surfaces 26. Similarly, each comer side surface 28 is located between and merges with the two major side surfaces 26. Each cutting edge section 18 comprises a first cutting edge 32, a second cutting edge 34 and a comer cutting edge 36 at which the first and second cutting edges 32, 34 merge. Each first cutting edge 32 extends away from the comer cutting edge 36 with which it merges to an adjacent non-cutting edge section 20 and towards the median plane M. The first cutting edge 32 is preferably straight and is inclined at a non-zero first angle θl with respect to the median plane M. Similarly, each second cutting edge 34 extends away from the comer cutting edge 36 with which it merges to an adjacent non-cutting edge section 20 and towards the median plane M. The second cutting edge 34 is preferably straight and is inclined at a non-zero second angle 02 with respect to the median plane M. The first and second angles θl, 02 can be equal or non-equal to each other. The two first cutting edges 32 associated with a given end surface 12 are parallel to each other, and the two second cutting edges 34 associated with a given end surface 12 are parallel to each other. The flat minor side surfaces 30 form a pair of diametrically opposed flat comers of the cutting insert 10.
Each end surface 12 comprises a rake surface 38 adjacent each cutting edge section 18. The rake surface 38 extends from the cutting edge section 18 inwards towards the median plane M to a join 40 where it merges with a rise 42 that slopes from the join 40 away from the median plane M to the flat end region 24. As can be seen in Figs. 2 and 5A to 5D, the rake surface 38 adjacent the first cutting edge 32 has a variable length (measured perpendicular to the first cutting edge 32) along the cutting edge. It has a first length LI (at cross-section VA-NA) near to an adjacent non-cutting edge 20 and a second length L2 (at cross-section NB-NB) near to an adjacent comer cutting edge 36, where the second length L2 is greater than the first length LI and continuously varies between these two values along the cutting edge. On the other hand, the rake surface 38 adjacent with the second cutting edge 34 has a third length L3 which is approximately constant along the length of the second cutting edge 34. For the sake of clarity it is pointed out that the line shown as the join 40 in Figs. 1 and 2 is only illustrative. It will be apparent from Figs. 5A to 5D that the join 40 is actually a curved region of finite width forming part of the groove 22.
The cutting insert 10 has 180° rotational symmetry about first, second and third axes of rotational symmetry Rl, R2, R3. The first axis Rl is perpendicular to the flat end regions 24, the second axis R2 passes through the minor side surfaces 30 and the third axis R3 passes through the comer side surfaces 28. The second and third axes R2, R3 lie in the median plane M and the first axis Rl is perpendicular to the second and third axes R2, R3. The cutting insert 10 is provided with a through bore 44 having as axis the first axis of rotational symmetry Rl. The through bore 44 extends between the flat end regions 24 and defines an axial direction of the cutting insert. It should be noted from the side views of the cutting insert 10 in Figs. 3 and 4 that the cutting insert 10 is widest in the axial direction of the cutting insert 10 at regions where the flat end regions 24 are directly opposite each other. In other words, the flat end regions 24 form axially outermost protmding regions of the cutting insert 10. Typically, the radius R of the comer cutting edges 36 is in the range 0.2 to 6.35 mm.
Attention is now drawn to Fig. 6 showing a cutting tool 46 in accordance with the present invention. The cutting tool 46 is an end mill capable of cutting small radii internal corners in a workpiece 48 in accordance with the value of the radius R of the comer cutting edges 36. The cutting tool 46 is also capable performing ramp down cutting operations by means of the second cutting edge 34. The cutting tool 46 has an axis of rotation A and comprises a cutter body 50 with the indexable cutting inserts 10 in accordance with the present invention seated in insert pockets 52 of the cutter body 50. Each cutting insert 10 has two effective operative cutting edges, one operative first cutting edge 32' and one operative second cutting edge 34', and one operative comer cutting edge 36'. The insert pockets 52 are so designed that the operative first cutting edge 32' is positioned with and axial rake angle γ of typically close to 0° but generally no larger that 5°. Since the operative first cutting edge 32' makes a first angle θl with respect to the median plane M of the cutting insert 10 an inherent back clearance α typically close to θl but generally no less than θl-5° is obtained between the cutting insert 10 and portions of the surface of the workpiece 48 adjacent the operative second cutting edge 34'.
The operative first cutting edge 32' can be divided into a leading portion adjacent the operative cutting comer 36', a trailing portion distal the operative cutting comer 36' and an intermediate portion therebetween. In cutting operations involving the production of internal small radius comers in a workpiece, such as in the manufacture of dies and molds, it is mainly the operative cutting corner 36' that is involved in the cutting operation. It will be appreciated that even if the leading portion of the operative first cutting edge 32' also participates in such cutting operations, the groove 22 should extend adjacent the whole length of the operative first cutting edge 32' from the leading portion to trailing portion, in order to provide clearance between the end surface 12 adjacent the trailing portion of the operative first cutting edge 32' and the workpiece 48. It will also be appreciated that if instead of the flat minor side surfaces 30 the cutting insert were to have comers protruding beyond the flat minor side surfaces 30, then that part of the cutting insert protruding beyond the flat minor side surfaces 30 associated with the operative first cutting edge 32' would disadvantageously enter the cutting circle defined by the operative first cutting edge 32'. This is especially important when working in the region of extended shoulders and also in ramp up cutting operations.
Although the present invention has been described to a certain degree of particularity, it should be understood that various alterations and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
