Definitions

  • This disclosure relates generally to the field of rotary drill bits. More specifically, the disclosure relates to drill bits having "gouging" type cutters and structures for such cutters.
  • PDC polycrystalline diamond compact
  • Gouging type cutters are used in drill bits for drilling mine shafts or tunnels, among other uses.
  • Such bits are known in the art as "claw" bits, one example of which is sold under the trademark QUI-KLAW, which is a trademark of Drillhead, Inc.
  • Such bits are known to be useful in drilling clay, unconsolidated sand, loose rock and gravel.
  • U.S. Patent No. 8,505,634 issued to Lyons et al. describes a drill bit having gouging cutting elements disposed adjacent to shearing cutting elements on a blade on the bit body.
  • the shearing cutting elements have a planar cutting face, while the gouging cutting elements have a non-planar cutting face, e.g., dome shaped or cone shaped.
  • the bit 10 may include a bit body 11 having a tool joint section 11A for coupling the bit body 11 to a drill string (not shown) and a cutting section 11B which may include a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart blades 12.
  • the bit body 11 may be formed from steel and have an abrasion resistant coating such as tungsten carbide applied to certain wear susceptible areas (not shown) on the bit body 11.
  • the bit body may also be made, for example, from carbide matrix of compositions known in the art.
  • Each of the blades 12, in some embodiments, may extend from a selected distance proximate the axial center of the bit body 11, radially outwardly to a gage portion 13 having a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of a wellbore to be drilled by the bit 10.
  • the gage portion 13 of each blade 12 may include gage cutters 14 made, for example, from a hard or superhard material such as polycrystalline diamond, cubic boron nitride, diamond impregnated tungsten carbide or tungsten carbide.
  • the present example includes six, circumferentially equally spaced apart blades 12, but the number of blades and the circumferential spacing therebetween are not limits on the scope of the present disclosure.
  • At least one or each blade 12 may define a stepped, dual "profile" or curved shape.
  • a forward (with respect to direction of rotation of the bit) step of at least one or all of the blades 12 may be longitudinally lower or behind (further back or rearward with respect to the direction the bit will drill) than a rearward step of blade 12, as will be further explained below with reference to FIG. 2 .
  • Lower in the present context means further from the drilling surface defined by the profile of the blades 12.
  • the forward step of the profile may include a plurality of pick type or gouging cutters 18 spaced in a row along the forward step. The gouging type cutters 18 will be further explained below.
  • the rearward step of the profile may in some examples include a plurality of shear cutters 16, such as, for example, polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) cutters, tungsten carbide cutters, or cubic boron nitride cutters of any type known in the art.
  • PDC polycrystalline diamond compact
  • tungsten carbide cutters tungsten carbide cutters
  • cubic boron nitride cutters of any type known in the art.
  • the shear cutters 16 may be mounted on the blade 12 at a selected backrake angle.
  • the gouging cutters 18 may be mounted in openings (18A in FIG. 2 ) at a selected forward rake angle.
  • the tips ( FIG. 4 ) of the gouging cutters 18 may extend longitudinally ahead of (in the direction the bit will drill) a cutting surface defined by the shear cutters 16 by about 0.5 inches (13 mm).
  • a space between circumferentially adjacent blades 12 may form a flow path or waterway to enable space for cuttings generated by the bit 10 to be disposed until they are forced out by the action of drilling fluid pumped through one or more nozzles or "jets" 20 inserted into the bit body 11 as shown in FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 2 shows a side view of one of the blades 12 without the cutters (16,18 in FIG. 1 ) to better illustrate some of the blade's features.
  • the blade 12 in the present example may define a forward (with respect to direction of rotation of the bit) step 22 that traverses a curved profile.
  • the forward step 22 may extend radially inwardly to a predetermined position (i.e., a selected distance from the center of rotation of the bit body) enabling convenience of placement of the gouging cutters (18 in FIG. 1 ) in substantially cylindrically shaped pockets 18A.
  • the curvature of the profile may substantially match the curvature of a corresponding portion of a rearward step 24 on the blade 12, or may have a different curvature.
  • the rearward step 24 may be elevated (or extended longitudinally in the direction of drilling) by a selected distance H at one or more lateral positions along the blade 12.
  • the distance H may be about 0.5 inches (13 mm).
  • the rearward step 24 (if such blade structure is used) may define a profile that extends radially outward to the gage surface 13 and may extend radially inward to a selected distance from the axis of rotation of the bit body (11 in FIG. 1 ) somewhat more or somewhat less than the forward step 22.

  • the distance by which the tips of the gouging cutters (18 in FIG. 1 ) extend beyond the rearward step 24 or a cutting surface defined by the shear cutters (16 in FIG. 1 ), if used, will be related to the length of the gouging cutters (18 in FIG. 1 ) and the selected distance H.
  • other embodiments of a drill bit made using gouging cutters according to the present disclosure may use blade profiles suitable for use of only gouging type cutters. It is also within the scope of the present disclosure to use gouging cutters as will be explained below on one or more roller cones of a roller cone type drill bit.
  • the rearward step 24 or any or all of the blades 12 may omit the mounting pockets 16A and the shear cutters (16 in FIG. 1 ).
  • the blades (12 in FIG. 1 ) may only include a single profile surface that extends a selected distance from the rotational axis of the bit to the gage surface (13 in FIG. 1 ) and the gouging cutters (18 in FIG. 1 ) are mounted to the bit body (11 in FIG. 1 ) so that the tips thereof are disposed at a selected longitudinal distance ahead of the blade profile surface.
