Definitions
- the present invention relates in general to rotary drag bits and, in particular, to an improved system, method, and apparatus for a rotary drag bit having gauge cutting elements configured at large back rake angles.
- Earth-boring bits of the fixed cutter variety commonly referred to as drag bits, have no moving parts and employ an array of hard inserts to scrape and shear formation material as the bit is rotated in the borehole. Inserts on prior art fixed cutter bits are typically aligned such that the inserts scrape the material from the borehole bottom.
- the longitudinal axis of the insert is typically at a small acute angle (e.g., 0° to 30°) relative to the bit face.
- a small acute angle e.g., 0° to 30°
- Such an alignment places the cutting face of a cylindrically-shaped insert nearly perpendicular to the borehole bottom.
- the contact area between the cutting element and the formation starts out very small but increases rapidly as penetration or depth of cut becomes deeper.
- Embodiments of a system, method, and apparatus for a fixed cutter rotary drill bit having gauge cutting elements at large back rake angles are disclosed.
- the gauge is located at the outer diameter side wall portion of the bit that extends from the cutting end. The gauge and its cutting components contact the side wall of the bore hole during drilling operations.
- the gauge cutting elements may be configured at a back rake angle in a range of about 40° to 70°.
- a very high back rake angle helps ensure compressive cutter loading when side impact forces are higher.
- FIG. 1 is an isometric view of one embodiment of drill bit constructed in accordance with the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a schematic representation of half of a cutting profile of the drill bit of FIG. 1 and is constructed in accordance with the present invention
- FIG. 3 is an illustration of cutter element manipulation
- FIG. 4 is a side view of a cutting element showing a conventional back rake angle
- FIG. 5 is a side view of one embodiment of a cutting element showing a back rake angle constructed in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 6 is a side view of another embodiment of a cutting element showing a back rake angle constructed in accordance with the present invention.
- Bit 11 has a bit axis 12 and a threaded end 13 for connection into a drill string.
- a cutting end 15 at a generally opposite end of the bit 11 is provided with a plurality of hard cutting elements 17 (e.g., polycrystalline diamond cutters, etc.) arranged about cutting end 15 to effect efficient disintegration of formation material as bit 11 is rotated in a bore hole.
- each cutting element 17 has a cylindrical base 19 with an axis 20, and is secured in a preformed pocket 21 provided on cutting end 15 and a cutting face 23 that engages the formation material.
- cutting element 17 may comprise a frustoconical cutting end that forms a beveled edge adjacent the face 23.
- Cutting element 17 acts somewhat like a plow that generally directs a high percentage of the material of the formation up its flat face.
- profile 25 (approximately half of which is shown in FIG. 2) about bit axis 12.
- profile 25 comprises various areas, including a cone 27, a nose 29, a shoulder 31 , and a gauge or gauge pad or surface 33.
- the gauge 33 is on a radially outermost portion of the bit body relative to the bit axis 12.
- the gauge 33 essentially defines the flat, outer diameter side wall portion of bit 11 that extends from cutting end 15 (FIG. 1).
- the gauge 33 and its cutting components are proximal to and contact the side wall 34 (see FIG. 3) of the bore hole during drilling operations with bit 11.
- a plurality of channels or grooves 35 extend from cutting end 15 through gauge 33 to provide a clearance area for the removal of cuttings and chips formed by cutting elements 17.
- a plurality of cutting elements 17 are provided on gauge 33 of bit 11.
- Active, gauge cutting elements 17 on gauge 33 provide the ability to actively cut formation material at the side wall 34 (FIG. 3) of the bore hole to provide dynamic stability and improved gauge-holding ability in earth-boring bits of the fixed cutter variety.
- at least some of the gauge cutting elements 17 on gauge 33 may be ground flat at the outer diameter of bit 11 for some types of applications.
- Bit 11 is illustrated as a polycrystalline diamond cutter (PDC) bit, but cutting elements 17 are equally useful in other fixed cutter or drag bits that include a gauge or gauge surface for engagement with the side wall of the bore hole. Examples include impregnated and natural diamond bit cutting elements.
- Cutting element 117 is a conventional PDC cutting element and is cylindrical in shape.
- Cutting element 117 has an axis 120 and a diamond table on its face 123 with an essentially circular cross-section.
- Cutting element 117 has a cutter back rake angle 140 of 20°.
- conventional cutter back rake angles of 5° to 30° also are known.
- the circle 23 represents the face of cutting element 17 on the gauge 33.
- a back rake axis 42 is shown as vertical in the drawing, and parallel to the gauge 33, bit axis 12, and the bore side wall 34.
- a side rake axis 44 is perpendicular to axis 42, gauge 33, the bit axis 12, and the bore side wall 34.
- both the back rake angle and the side rake angle of element 17 are zero.
- face 23 extends in the plane defined by axes 42, 44, such that it is perpendicular to the gauge 33 and bore sidewall, and face 23 is parallel to axes 12, 42 and 44. Rotating the face 23 about axis 42 results in a modification to the back rake angle.
- a positive back rake angle inclines the cutting face 23 away from the bit axis 12 and toward the borehole 34. Rotating the face 23 about axis 44 results in a modification to the side rake angle.
- a positive side rake angle includes the cutting face 23 away from the drill string and toward the bottom of the bore hole.
- one embodiment of cutting element 17 in accordance with the invention is shown with a relatively large positive back rake angle 42 of 40°, and a 0° side rake angle.
- another embodiment of cutting element 17 is shown at a 65° back rake angle 42, and a 0° side rake angle.
- the invention may comprise back rake angles of approximately 40° to 70°.
- side-cutting e.g., cutting with the gauge 33 of the cutting profile 25
- a very high back rake angle help ensures compressive cutter loading when side impact forces are higher.
