Cutting insert, cutting tool, and method for manufacturing machined product using same
In an embodiment, a cutting insert includes an upper surface, a one or more side surfaces, and a cutting edge. The upper surface includes a first corner portion, and a first side that is adjacent to the first corner portion. The side surfaces are adjacent to the upper surface. The cutting edge is disposed on at least a portion of a section where the upper surface and the side surfaces intersect. The cutting edge includes first, second, third and fourth cutting edges. The first cutting edge is disposed at the first corner portion and has a convex curved shape. The second cutting edge is next to the first cutting edge, and has a linear shape. The third cutting edge is next to the second cutting edge, and has a convex curved shape. The fourth cutting edge is next to the third cutting edge on the first side.
1. A cutting insert, comprising:
an upper surface comprising:
a first corner portion; and
a first side adjacent to the first corner portion;
one or more side surfaces adjacent to the upper surface; and
a cutting edge:
disposed on at least a portion of a section where the upper surface and the one or more side surfaces intersect; and
when viewed from directly above, comprising:
a first cutting edge at the first corner portion, having a convex curved shape;
a second cutting edge next to the first cutting edge, having a linear shape and;
a third cutting edge next to the second cutting edge, having a convex curved shape;
a fourth cutting edge next to the third cutting edge on the first side;
a first connecting edge having a convex curved shape, and connecting the first cutting edge and the second cutting edge; and
a second connecting edge having a convex curved shape, and connecting the second cutting edge and the third cutting edge.
2. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein
a width of the second cutting edge is greater than a width of the third cutting edge, when viewed from directly above.
3. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein:
the first connecting edge and the second connecting edge each have an arc shape; and
a radius of curvature of the second connecting edge is greater than a radius of curvature of the first connecting edge.
4. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein
a radius of curvature of the first cutting edge is greater than the radius of curvature of the first connecting edge.
5. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein
a width of the third cutting edge is greater than a width of the second connecting edge when viewed from directly above.
6. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein
the fourth cutting edge has a linear shape when viewed from directly above.
7. The cutting insert according to claim 1 , wherein
the third cutting edge has an arc shape when viewed from directly above.
8. A cutting tool comprising:
a holder comprising a pocket disposed on a tip side; and
the cutting insert according to claim 1 , disposed in the pocket.
9. A method for manufacturing a machined product, the method comprising:
rotating a work material;
bringing the cutting tool according to claim 8 into contact with the work material that is rotating; and
separating the cutting tool from the work material.
