Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to a guide adapter for guiding a drill bit during percusion drilling, and a drill arrangement comprising said guide adapter.
  • top hammer drilling is an established method for drilling vertical bore holes with a drill bit arranged in the forward end of an elongated drill string or cable.
  • a hammering impact from a hydraulically driven piston is acting on the drill string to exert the required force to break the rock and generate the bore hole.
  • the length of the drill string is, during the drilling, increased by adding further drill string rods as the depth of the bore hole increases.
  • the problem with deviation could be reduced by adding a guide adapter between the drill bit and the drill string or cable to provide additional support to the forward end of the drill string and the drill bit.
  • a guide adapter is disclosed in US8051927B2 .
  • US5722496 discloses a removable guide member for guiding drill string components in a drill hole.
  • the guide adapter for guiding a drill bit during percusion drilling, said guide adapter is intended to be arranged between the drill bit and an elongated drill string extending along an axis A, said drill bit having a first radius transverse to axis A.
  • the guide adapter comprises:
  • the guide adapter is favorable since the guide elements with the claimed characteristics arranged in the rear end of the guide adapter will provide the desired guiding of the drill bit, and at the same time reduce the weight of the guide adapter which is a considerable advantage to improve the drilling performance.
  • the characteristic design of the guide elements furthermore reduces the friction between the guide elements and the bore hole since only the rear end of the guide elements will be in contact with the side wall of the bore hole which improves the drilling performace further.
  • the guiding elements in the rear end of the guide adapter preferably have an extension in radial direction from axis A substantially equal to the maximum radius, i.e. the first radius of the drill bit such that the guiding elements of the guide adapter will provide support against the side walls of the bore hole and reduce deviation from the desired straight bore hole direction.
  • the guide adapter comprises at least five guide elements with substantially identical shape and dimension. This embodiment is favourable since the five or more guiding elements will provide very good guiding of the drill bit and prevent deviation.
  • the guide elements are substantially straight and extending parallel to axis A along the sleeve shaped adapter body. This embodiment could be manufactured in an effective way since the guiding elements are straight and parallell to axis A.
  • the guide elements in a plane transverse to axis A, have a base arranged towards the sleeve shaped adapter body, said guide elements have a tapered shape in radial direction from axis A and are ended by an outer end surface. Guiding elements with this design provide excellent support within the bore hole and are very resistant to loads exerted during drilling since the wider base provides a strong bounding to the guide adapter body while the tapered shape reduces the amount of material, and consequently the weight, of the guide adapter which improves the performance of the arrangement.
  • the outer end surface is shaped like a cirular arc with a radius corresponding to the radius from axis A to the outer end surface.
  • the curved outer end surface provides excellent support against the side walls of the bore hole and are very resistant to wear.
  • At least an area of the outer end surface of at least one guiding element is covered by a hard layer.
  • the guide adapter body and the guide elements are made of a metal material and the applied hard layer of a material that is harder and more resistant to wear increases the life time for the guide adapter.
  • the hard layer is applied on the outer end surfaces along the entire guide elements along axis A to increase the life time of the guide adapter by providing the hard layer on the entire surface of the guide element facing the bore hole side wall.
  • the hard layer is a layer made of a material that is harder and more resistant to wear than the metal material of the guide adapter body.
  • the material is a material including an iron-based alloy, a cobalt-based alloy, a nickel-based alloy, a refractory metal, a cemented carbide, a metal matrix composite and/or a chromium carbide alloy. These different alternative materials provide a protective layer that can withstand wear and increase the intervals between replacement of the guide adapter.
  • the hard layer has a thickness in a direction perpendicular from the outer end surface within the range of 0.1 - 10 mm, and preferably within the range of 0.1 - 4 mm to provide the desired protection of the guiding elements of the guide adapter.
  • the guide elements comprise a rear end surface and the rear end surface of at least one guide element is covered by a rear end surface hard layer.
  • the rear end surfaces are exposed to wear since the material removed from the rock to form the bore hole remains within the bore hole and due to gravitation tend to land on the rear end surfaces of the guiding elements.
  • the application of the rear end surface hard layer exends the life time of the guide adapter since the rear end of the guide elements are protected by the rear end surface hard layer.
  • the rear end surface hard layer has a thickness in a direction perpendicular from the rear end surface within the range of 0.1 - 10 mm, and preferably within the range of 0.1 - 4 mm and is made of the same type of materials as the hard layer arranged on the outer end surface on the guiding element.
  • the guiding elements in the rear end has an extension in radial direction from axis A of about 94 - 96 % of said first radius, and a radial extension the forward of the guiding elements of about 89 - 91 % of said first radius. Guiding elements with this design provides excellent guiding of the drill bit and the desired drilling performance.
  • a wear indicator is arranged in the outer end surface of at least one of the guide elements to indicate when the guide adapter is worn out and needs to be replaced. This embodiment helps the operator to replace the guide adapter in time to ensure the desired guiding of the drill bit.
  • the wear indicator is a notch, recess or cut out portion arranged in the top end surface, said notch, recess or cut out portion has a depth selected such that when the guide adapter is worn out, the notch is no longer visible in the top end surface.
  • the distance from axis A to the wear indicator is within the range of 80 - 99 % of the guiding element extension in radial direction from axis A in the rear end of the guide adapter, and preferably within the range of 85 - 95 % of the guiding element extension in radial direction from axis A in the rear end of the guide adapter. These ranges are selected to ensure that the guide adapter is preplaced in time to ensure the desired guiding of the drill bit.
  • the guide elements extend along 50% or less of the adapter body length L along axis A, alternatively 40% or less of the adapter body length L along axis A. These lengths are selected to ensure the desired guiding of the drill bit in combination with excellent drilling performance.
  • the radial extension of the guiding elements are decreasing in the direction from the rear end towards the forward end such that the guide elements will have a convex shape along axis A, or a substantially straight shape angled in relation to axis A along axis A.
