Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a thread coupling for drill rods for percussion drilling comprising a male thread and a co-operating female thread.
  • the invention also relates to a drill rod intended to be used in such a coupling.
  • the aim of the present invention is to alter the wear configuration in such a way that the thread clearance of the female thread not affects the male thread.
  • aims of the invention are to design the thread coupling in such a way that the thread outlet of the male thread neither causes any bending force nor prevents tightening of the coupling.
  • Fig. 1 discloses a side view of a conventionally designed thread coupling.
  • Fig. 2 illustrates the wear configuration of a conventional rock drill rod.
  • Fig. 3 illustrates the wear configuration of a section along the line III-III in Fig. 2.
  • Fig. 4 illustrates the wear according to a section along the line IV-IV in Fig. 3.
  • Fig. 5 discloses a side view of a thread coupling according to the present invention.
  • Fig. 6 discloses the thread outlet of a male thread of a drill rod according to the invention.
  • Fig. 7 illustrates how the thread outlet of the drill rod according to Fig. 6 can be carried out.
  • Fig. 8. discloses a section along the line VIII-VIII in Fig. 7.
  • Fig. 9 discloses a side view of the thread outlet seen along the line IX-IX in Fig. 8.
  • the conventional thread coupling disclosed in Figs. 1 to 4 comprises a drill rod 100 having a sleeve-shaped end 101 with a female thread 102.
  • the drill rod 100 is connected to a drill rod 103, the pole-shaped end 104 of said drill rod having a male thread 105 that is screwed into the female thread 102.
  • the thread profile of a commonly used rock drill thread has a generally seen trapezoid shape, and contact is present substantially only between the straight contact shoulder 106 of the male thread and a corresponding straight contact shoulder of the female thread.
  • the wear configuration of the threads is consequently as is illustrated by the shaded surfaces 107, 108 in Fig. 2. It has also turned out that the thread outlet of the female thread 102 causes a wear in the shape of a wedge. This is illustrated by the shaded surface 109 in Fig. 2. This wedge-shaped wear counter-acts the tightening of the coupling and has turned out to provide an inclining of the coupling and thus a bending of the drill rod.
  • the wedge-shaped wear surface 109 is illustrated in Fig. 3, and as can be seen from Fig. 4 a pit 110 arises in the contact shoulder adjacent to the thread outlet, said pit having an increasing width in the direction of the circumference.
  • Figs. 5 - 9 is disclosed a preferred embodiment of a thread coupling according to the invention.
  • the coupling comprises a drill rod 10 having a sleeve-shaped end 11 with a female thread 12.
  • the pole-shaped end 14 of the drill rod 13, that is connected to the drill rod 10, comprises a male thread 15 that engages the female thread 12.
  • the contact shoulders 16 are essentially straight.
  • the shoulders 16 have an inclination of 25°-40° relative the drill axis, preferably 35 0 .
  • the threads 12, 15 are internally designed in such a way that an essentially unchanged contact surface between the contact shoulders 16 of the threads 12, 15 is maintained adjacent to the thread clearance of the female thread 12 or the thread outlet of the male thread 15.
  • this is achieved, see Fig. 6, by maintaining the thread profile essentially unchanged up to the thread outlet.
  • conventionally designed drill rods there is a continuous decreasing of the thread profile at the thread outlet, i e both the height and the width of the thread decrease successively from the full profile to the transition of the thread to the unthreaded portion of the rod.
  • Figs. 7 and 8 is illustrated how the maintainance of a full thread profile can be kept up to the thread outlet on the male thread 15 by removing the shaded surfaces 17, 18.
  • the decreasing in width and height is illustrated by the removed portion 19 marked by chain-dotted lines.
  • the same result is likely to be achieved if the male thread is designed to extend out of the portion 11 in a full profile and that the terminating portion of the female thread is removed, said portion having a decreasing width and height.
  • the threads 12, 15 are to be designed internally to extend out of the portion 11 in a full profile and that at the same time the terminating portion of the female thread is removed, said portion having a decreasing width and height.
  • the threads 12, 15 are designed internally in such a way that a wholly number of thread turns are in engagement in the coupling thus guaranteeing that no bending forces appear in the coupling. This means that the threads are designed with a wholly number of turns of a full profile.
