摘要

The present invention relates to cutting tool (10) for chip removing machining, said cutting tool (10) including a holder body (11) with a cutting insert receiving site including a base surface (13) and side supporting means (14,15), a cutting insert (12) located in said cutting insert receiving site and supported by said base surface (13) and said side supporting means (14,15), a locking pin (22), means (16,18,25,26) for detachably connecting the locking pin to the holder body (11) in the area of the cutting insert receiving site, said means (16,18,25,26) allowing axial displacement of the locking pin (22) relative to the holder body (11), said locking pin (22) having a longitudinal centre axis (27) diverging away from said side supporting means (14,15) as it progresses upwardly, said cutting insert (12) having a fixing hole (19) extending through the insert (12), said locking pin (22) having a head (23), a lower contact portion of said head (23) engaging the inner portion of the fixing hole (19) and an upper contact portion of said head (23) engaging the outer portion of the fixing hole (19), said contact portions being located on opposite sides of the head (23) of the locking pin (22). When locking cutting inserts having a hole designed in accordance with ISO 6987 to a holder body the locking screw must be removed when exchanging the cutting insert. The aim of the present invention is to present a cutting tool having a locking mechanism that is extremely easy to handle yet completely reliable. The cutting tool according to the present invention has a locking screw (22) that is inclined relative to a line perpendicular to the base plane of the cutting insert receiving site of the holder body (11). The head (23) of the locking screw (23) is in its simpliest functional form cylindrical.
