20100028091Cutting Tool Having Bidirectional Adjustment Mechanism - A cutting tool has cartridges in which cutting inserts may be retained. The location of each cartridge is adjustable by a bidirectional adjustment mechanism having an adjustment screw directed in the direction of adjustment. The adjustment screw has a head and a flexible flange with an annular recess therebetween. A protuberance projecting from the cartridge engages the annular recess with an interference fit thereby coupling the adjustment screw to the cartridge. As the adjustment screw is screw rotated about its axis of screw rotation it moves along the axis of screw rotation taking the cartridge with it. Screw rotation of the adjustment screw in opposite senses results in the adjustment of the position of the cartridge in opposite directions. Due to the fact that the protuberance is firmly located in the annular recess of the adjustment screw, play or backlash is eliminated.02-04-2010
20100135735Cutting Tool and Clamping Mechanism Therefor - A clamping mechanism clamps a cutting insert in a tool body. The clamping mechanism has a clamping arm seated within a clamping arm pocket. The clamping arm includes a clamping protrusion extending rearwardly from a rear surface of the clamping arm. The cutting insert has a bore having an insert retaining surface and is seated within an insert pocket. Upon tightening the clamping arm into the tool body, the clamping protrusion presses against the insert retaining surface and the cutting insert is securely abutted within the insert pocket.06-03-2010
20100316453Cutting Tool Having a Bidirectional Adjustment Mechanism - An adjustment mechanism allows for bidirectional adjustment of the position of a cutting insert retained in a cutting tool by a securing screw. The adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment screw, a slider, the cutting insert and the securing screw. The rotation of the adjustment screw in opposite senses results in the bidirectional axial adjustment of the position of the cutting insert, while the securing screw is fixed in and retains the cutting insert.12-16-2010
