PERCUSSION BIT Filed Sept. 16, 1968 INVENTOR.
JACK MILLER United States Patent 3,519,092 PERCUSSION BIT Jack Miller, Bedford, Pa., assignor to Kennametal Inc., Latrobe, Pa., a corporation of Pennsylvania Filed Sept. 16, 1968, Ser. No. 760,002 Int. Cl. E21c 13/00 US. Cl. 175410 12 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Percussion bit having a body with at least two nonradial wedge shaped hard inserts in the working end of the bit body substantially diametrically opposite locations, and with rod-like hard inserts having rounded ends mounted in the working end of the bit body between the wedge shaped inserts and near the periphery of the bit body.
This invention relates to percussion bits and is particularly concerned with a bit of this nature having a novel placement and combination of hard cutting inserts mounted in the cutting face.
Percussion .bits are, of course, well known, and take the form of steel bodies, generally forged, which are mounted for reciprocation and rotation and drill by breaking out material against which they impact.
Bits of this nature may have wedge shaped inserts mounted on the cutting face, or may have cylindrical inserts, or button type inserts, with rounded ends mounted therein. Sometimes the bits employ a combination of.
wedge shaped inserts and buttons but, in such cases, the buttons are usually located in the center of the working face of the bit and are provided to break up the central core taken by the bit. In other cases, the working ends of the bits have only button type inserts mounted therein in distributed relation.
The present invention proposes to employ a combination of wedge shaped cutting inserts and button inserts in a way which increases the rate at which the bit cuts and also substantially increases the useful life of the bit.
In brief, a bit constructed according to the present invention comprises a body having a working face and having inserted into the working face of the body in circumferentially spaced relation two or more wedge shaped inserts which are not radial and between which, at about the outer portion of the working face of the bit, are inserted button type inserts. One or more smaller buttons may be mounted in the central region of the working face for breaking up the core taken by the .bit.
A particular object of the present invention is the provision of a novel bit construction which employs both block-like inserts having a wedge shape on one side and button type inserts as primary cutting and breaking elements.
A further object of the present invention is the provision of a percussion bit which will have a more rapid penetration rate than heretofore known bits.
Still a further object of this invention is the provision of a percussion bit which has substantially longer life than previously known percussion bits.
Still further object of this invention is the provision of a percussion bit which is relatively easy to manufacture but which is characterized in long life and a rapid penetration range.
These and other objects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent upon reference to the following detailed specification taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a side view, partly broken away, of a rotary 3,519,092 Patented July 7, 1970 ice percussion bit constructed according to the present invention; 1
FIG. 2 is a view looking in at the bottom or working face of the bit of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a vertical longitudinal section through the bit and is indicated by line III-III on FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view through the lower portion only of the bit body and is indicated by line IVIV on FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is a fragmentary sectional view indicated by line VV on FIG. 2; and
FIG. 6 is a fragmentary view showing a modified type of wedge shaped insert.
Referring to the drawings some what more in detail, the bit illustrated therein comprises a body 10 having a central hole 12 which is provided with threads 14. In other types of bits, the bit can be operatively connected to the lower end of a drilling rig by other means, such as splines.
Interposed between the cutting inserts 24, and circumferentially spaced from each other, and also from the inserts 24, are cylindrical rod-like, or button type, inserts 26 of hard material such as cemented tungsten carbide. In the bit illustrated, four of the cylindrical elements 26 are provided. Each of these elements, as will be seen in FIG. 4, is in the form of a relatively short rod-like member rounded at its projecting outer end. The inserts 26 are mounted in holes 28' drilled into the bottom of the bit body. Holes 28, as will be seen in FIG. 4, are angular to the axis of the bit body so the inserts 26 will be effective at the periphery of the hole being cut by the bit.
The inserts may be brazed in place and are thus solidly afiixed to the bit body but it has also been found satisfactory to press the cylindrical inserts into holes drilled to a size to provide an interference fit for the inserts.
As the bit operates it will be evident that there will be a certain region located radially inwardly of the inner ends of cutting elements 24 that will not be directly engaged by any of the cutting elements, and this might tend to build up a core-like projection in the center of the hole that would interfere with continued cutting of the material at the bottom of the hole. This core-like projection is readily removed by the provision of one or more small inserts 30 mounted in respective holes 32, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. These inserts protrude from the working face of the bit body and may have their axes parallel to or inclined to the axis of the bit body.
As will best be seen in FIG. 2, the bit body is provided with a plurality of longitudinal flutes 34 extending along at least the enlarged lower end part 18 of the bit body. These flutes provide passage for the crushed material loosened up by the bit so that the bit can proceed on downwardly in the hole being drilled.
Further, air under pressure may be supplied to the central hole 12 which can pass downwardly to the bottom of the bit via the drilled passages 36 which will be seen in FIGS. 2 and 5. Each of these passages communicates at its lower end with a laterally extending groove 38 which leads radially outwardly into communication with the flutes 34 which are disposed between the button inserts 26 on each side of the bit body.
In the usual bit body, having either block-like inserts, or button type inserts, in the working face, the bit body tapers inwardly in the upward direction at an angle of about 3 degrees on each side, namely, at about a 6 degree included angle. It has been found with the bit of the present invention, however, the life thereof is so much greater than the life of the usual bit body, that it is of advantage to taper at least the large lower end portion 18 at a substantially greater angle; about 6 to 8 degrees on each side having been found to be satisfactory. The greater angle of the bit body facilitates regrinding of the periphery of the body after the inserts 24 commence to round at their outer corners. Such regrinding of the bit body will restore the bit to initial operating efficiency. With the body tapered at the greater angle as aforesaid, the steel of the body will readily wear away with the outer surface of the inserts and the bit will not wedge in the hole.
A further feature of the bit of the present invention is to be found in the added reliefs indicated at 40 in FIGS. 2 and 3 and disposed behind the wedge shaped inserts. The relief regions 40 permit easier grinding of the bit body and likewise permit the steel to wear away more easily as the ends of the wedge shaped inserts 'wear down.
As will be seen in FIG. 4, the bit body at the juncture of the bottom surface 20 with the periphery of the enlarged portion 18 is bevelled adjacent the button inserts 26 at 42. This makes it easier to drill holes 28 and also produces effective exposure of elements 26.
FIG. 6 shows how a block shaped insert 24a could have the outer end bevelled as at 50. The sharp peak 52 on each of the inserts of FIG. 6 continues clear to the radially outer end of the insert, as do the inclined side walls forming the sharp peak but, at the outer end of the insert, the angularity of the side walls changes as shown in FIG. 6. When inserts 24a are shaped as shown in FIG. 6, the bit stays sharp longer than when the inserts are shaped as in FIG. 1.
In the case of either modification, the bit seems to combine a cutting action with a breaking action as the bit is rotated and impacted on the bottom of the hole and a I rapid boring action is thereby obtained.
Only two specific embodiments of the invention has been illustrated and described herein, but it will be understood that other modifications and adaptations can be arrived at falling within the purview of the appended claims.
