Abstract
Abstract The rotary cutter tool assembly, including cutting insert, of the present invention is adapted to perform a finishing operation within a tube in such manner that tube wall thickness is ensured. To this end, the novel insert is provided with a guiding surface adjacent to the cutting edge of the insert, which guiding surface is displaced towards the central portion of the insert at a distance corresponding to the desired depth of cut. The insert is secured to the rotatable cutter head in such relation that said guiding surface precedes the cutting edge in the direction of rotation of the cutter head.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
85 words
Cutting insert for chip cutting operations comprising opposed top and bottom surfaces and side surfaces located therebetween, characterized in that at least one of said side surfaces being composed of two surface portions displaced at a fixed distance, the first surface portion (16) intersecting with said top surface to define a cutting edge (18) whereas the second surface portion (17) defines a guide support displaced towards the center of the insert at a fixed distance from said cutting edge corresponding to the cutting depth desired.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
85 words
Cutting insert for chip cutting operations comprising opposed top and bottom surfaces and side surfaces located therebetween, characterized in that at least one of said side surfaces being composed of two surface portions displaced at a fixed distance, the first surface portion (16) intersecting with said top surface to define a cutting edge (18) whereas the second surface portion (17) defines a guide support displaced towards the center of the insert at a fixed distance from said cutting edge corresponding to the cutting depth desired.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
82 words
Cutting insert as defined in claim 1, characterized in that said side surface, composed of displaced surface portions, comprises guide surfaces located on opposite sides of said cutting edge, one guide support surface (17) being displaced towards the center of the insert at a fixed distance from said cutting edge corresponding to the cutting depth desired, the other guide support surface (22) being displaced towards the center of the insert at a distance from said cutting edge smaller than said cutting depth.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
Cutting insert as defined in claim 1, characterized in that the cutting edge (18) and the guide surface (17) are convex in shape.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
32 words
Cutting insert as defined in claim 3, characterized in that the surface portion (16) defining said cutting edge (18) is cylindrical in shape whereas said guide surface (17) is spherical in shape.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
Cutting insert as defined in claim 1, characterized in that the insert basically is in the shape of a square or rectangular block.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
29 words
Cutting insert as defined in claim 5, characterized in that the insert is indexable, having cutting edges and guide surfaces located on opposite parallel side surfaces of said block.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
56 words
Cutting insert as defined in claim 5, characterized in that the top surface portion (21) adjoining said guide surface portion (17) is located in a plane parallel with the bottom surface (11) whereas the top surface portion (20) adjoining said cutting edge (18) is a plane surface obliquely disposed by inclining downwards towards said cutting edge.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
161 words
A rotary cutter tool comprising a cutter head equipped with a plurality of cutting inserts evenly distributed around the periphery of said head, each said cutting insert comprising opposed top and bottom surfaces and side surfaces therebetween, at least one of said side surfaces being composed of two side portions intersecting with said top surface to define a cutting edge, the second surface portion defining a guide support displaced towards the center of the insert at a fixed distance from said cutting edge corresponding to the cutting depth required, said tool being further characterized in that each cutting insert (10) is located on the cutter head (28) in such manner that the guide support (17,17 1 ) is located in front of the cutting edge (18,18 1 ) of said insert in the feeding direction, at least one of said cutting inserts being located on a support body (33) which is radially displaceable in a recess (29) of said cutter head.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
161 words
A rotary cutter tool comprising a cutter head equipped with a plurality of cutting inserts evenly distributed around the periphery of said head, each said cutting insert comprising opposed top and bottom surfaces and side surfaces therebetween, at least one of said side surfaces being composed of two side portions intersecting with said top surface to define a cutting edge, the second surface portion defining a guide support displaced towards the center of the insert at a fixed distance from said cutting edge corresponding to the cutting depth required, said tool being further characterized in that each cutting insert (10) is located on the cutter head (28) in such manner that the guide support (17,17 1 ) is located in front of the cutting edge (18,18 1 ) of said insert in the feeding direction, at least one of said cutting inserts being located on a support body (33) which is radially displaceable in a recess (29) of said cutter head.
