Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bit assembly in a drilling apparatus said apparatus working by hammering and/or rotating said assembly comprising of a pilot bit, drilling the central part of the hole and a ring bit fitted in connection with the said pilot bit and furnished with cylindrical inner surface drilling the outer surface of said hole, and further, between the pilot bit and the ring bit a blocking arrangement of mutual rotation and axial movement, whereby opening of said blocking arrangement makes it possible to pull the pilot bit off the hole, while the ring bit remains in the hole, and the bit assembly comprises a casing tube and its extension, and an interlocking system which is through a ring-shaped device from the extension of the casing tube adapted to transfer pulling force from the pilot or ring bit to the casing tube extension, and said interlocking system can be opened in order to continue drilling with the ring and pilot bits, when the casing tube remains in its place.
  • a similar drilling apparatus comprising a pilot bit and a ring bit is known from WO95/34740 .
  • a new bit assembly is developed, characteristic of which is that a ring like device comprises parts directed to the inside, by means of which said device is permissively fitted to rotate into the traverse groove on the outer surface of either the pilot or ring bit so that its motion is limited or blocked in both axial directions.
  • the advantage of the invention is that the casing tube, which during drilling is pulled into the hole can be left in the hole in the place wanted, for instance on hitting the rock, without pulling the drilling apparatus occasionally from the hole.
  • the pilot and also ring bits continue drilling without the casing tube therewith the diameter of the drilled hole remains unchanged.
  • the ring bit which is often to be left in a finished hole, can for its part be made material saving, since the pulling system that pulls the casing tube into the hole comes in this solution around the pilot bit.
  • the casing tube is pulled by means of the pilot bit and not the ring bit the hammering surfaces between pilot and ring bits can be remarkably smaller in regard to former solutions, whereby the wall thickness of the pilot bit in its cylindrical portion can also be made smaller.
  • the hammering faces between the ring like device according to the invention and the casing tube extension are easily made bigger, which extends the durability of the pilot bit.
  • the ring like device can advantageously be locked on the pilot bit outer surface so that by locking at least apart of the flushing grooves or of the ring bit grooves on the pilot bit outer surface are utilized. This is possible, since according to the invention, the ring like device comprises on its inner surface elevating parts directed to the inside.
  • the figure 1 shows a pilot bit 1, comprising of a stem 13, a percussion face 14 furnished with bit buttons and a cylindrical portion 16, which has longitudinal grooves, such as flushing grooves 12 and grooves 17 lower than former ones intended for locking as well as transverse grooves 10 for locking.
  • the front edge of the cylindrical portion 16 is as to its diameter a smaller cylindrical portion.
  • the drill waste flushing grooves 12 are deeper than the longitudinal ones on the pilot bit surface.
  • Figure 2 shows a ring bit 2 put in place around pilot bit 1.
  • the parts like locking claws 7 and 15 are locking said bits 1 and 2 mutual unrotatable in one rotation direction and additionally mutual immovable in both axial directions.
  • Figure 3 shows the ring like device 8 that transmits percussion or pulling force to the casing tube and is installed around the pilot bit 1.
  • the pilot bit longitudinal low grooves 17 as well as from them outgoing transverse grooves 10.
  • On the inner surface of device belongs from the inner surface projecting parts 9, which are fitted to run in said longitudinal grooves 17 and further when hitting traverse grooves 10, so that device 8 adheres like a bayonet coupling around the pilot bit 1.
  • the device becomes also detachable from above the pilot bit 1.
  • Figure 4 shows a section view of a casing extension 6 which is to be welded in the end of the casing tube, which is fixed around the ring like device, for instance by shrinking, whereby the shrinking joint is left loose so that mutual rotation is possible for the parts. However, they will in axial directions be locked to each other, but for them a small mutual clearance 5 - 10 mm in the axial direction is remained.
  • the casing tube is not shown, but it is by a known way, for instance, fixed by welding fixed to the extension 6.
  • Figure 5 shows the loose components according to the invented structure.
  • the inner projecting parts 9 of the ring like device 8 there are grooves 10 on the cylindrical portion of the pilot bit 1, into which grooves the parts 9 can screwed by a small rotary motion of one of them.
  • the pilot bit 1 can also be threaded through the device 8 in both directions.
  • the ring bit 2 must always be left in the ending hole, if even the casing tube, inclusive its extension 6, is left in the hole.
