Definitions
- the present invention relates to a drilling apparatus of the kind stated in the preamble of claim 1.
- a drilling apparatus of this type is disclosed in US Patent No. 3,638,741.
- the known drilling apparatus is in ⁇ tended for the digging of post holes for fences and is therefore constructed as a hand tool.
- the known drilling ap- paratus is in addition to the two concentric pipes, through which the drilling medium can be taken to the cutter head, provided with a central piping, which can be connected to the same source or another source for drilling medium which is added in big quantities to remove the earth penetrating into the inner one of the two concentric pipes.
- the central pipe extending over the whole length of the drilling appara ⁇ tus is a hindrance for the introduction of a casing or a suction point in the bore, while the drill is still present in the bore.
- This drawback is of no significance in con- nection with the manufacture of post holes, but prevents the use of the drill for deeper borings, for instance well- borings to lower the subsoil water level, provision of drinking water or the like.
- a single pipe drill is normally used, said pipe ending with a cutter head or a chisel. Drilling medium is conveyed to the cutter head through the interior of the pipe and escapes along the exterior of the drill pipe along with the material loosened by means of the cutter head. Also this normally used drill has the disadvantage that a casing or a suction head cannot be inserted in the drilled well, until the drill has been removed.
- the object of the invention is to further develop the drilling apparatus mentioned by way of introduction in such a way that it can be used also for deeper drillings and in such a way that a casing can be introduced in the drilled well, before the drill has been removed.
- the drilling apparatus it is ela ⁇ borated in such a way that cores can be taken for use in analyzing the layers of earth, in which the drilling has taken place.
- This embodiment is characterized by means of the subject matter of claim 2.
- the supply of drilling medium into the unobstructed clear of the drill is controlled through a changing of the direction of rotation of the drill.
- the drill is brought into rotation in such a direction that the extra nozzles are blocked, whereby a core is formed in the inner of the drill.
- the core can be brought up either by taking up the drill, or if the core is not particularly big, it may be brought up by means of the ejector nozzles, which are put in operation by changing the direction of rotation of the drill.
- FIG. 1 in perspective shows the front part of a drilling apparatus according to the invention partially in ⁇ tersected
- Fig. 2 shows the end surface of one part of a drill- ing apparatus according to the invention consisting of two mutually angularly displaceable parts, and
- Fig. 3 shows the front part of a drilling apparatus consisting of two parts corresponding to the embodiment ac- cording to Fig. 2 seen from the side.
- Fig. 1 shows the front end of a drill 1 comprising the cutter head.
- the drill consists of two coaxial pipes 2 and 3, between which an annular interspace 4, extending over the whole length of the drill, is provided.
- the interspace forms a supply duct for the drilling medium used, said medium being for instance water, drilling mud or air, depending on the type of drill ⁇ ing job and on the type of the assisting eqipment accompany ⁇ ing the drill.
- the two coaxial pipes are at the front end of the drill connected with one another by means of an end wall 4 forming the basis of the cutter head of the drill.
- the cutter head comprises a number of cutting metal bits 5, which in the embodiment shown approx.
- the cutting metal bits are preferably placed with a mu ⁇ tual distance along two concentric circles in such a way that the two hemispherically shaped heads of the cutting metal bits extend somewhat outside the inner wall of the inner pipe and the outer wall of the outer pipe 2, respectively.
- the cutting metal bits 5 are thereby able to break down the soil, in which the drill operates, in a track so wide that a clear is established around the drill. During the drilling the drill is brought into rota ⁇ tion, the cutter head with the cutting metal bits loosing the soil in front of the drill.
- the soil loosened is removed from the area in front of the drill by means of a number of jets of drilling medium, ejected from a corresponding number of essentially axially directed nozzles 6 in the end wall 4.
- the nozzles 6 may in a preferred embodiment comprise two series of nozzles, in which one series forms an angle of 10-15' inwards towards the axis of the drill and the other series correspondingly forms an angle outwards of 10-15* in relation to the axis of the drill.
- the central core which is during the drilling left in the clear of the inner pipe, is decomposed and transport ⁇ ed out of the bore by means of drilling medium, which is in ⁇ jected partly through a pair of essentially radially inwards directed ejector nozzles 8.
- drilling medium which is in ⁇ jected partly through a pair of essentially radially inwards directed ejector nozzles 8.
- the ejector nozzles at the same time control the static pressure on the column of drilling medium on the outside of the drill. It is prefer- able that only a smaller part of the material cleared is transported upwards along the outer surface of the drill, where it will increase friction and wear of the drill during its rotation.
- the nozzles 6 are placed in a short distance from the end surface of the drill, while the nozzles 7 may be placed at some distance from the end of the drill.
- the distance is not criitcal, but it is preferably comparatively small, so that a zone with a very heavy turbulence is created in the inner of the front end of the drill, said turbulence disintegrate very effectively the material, which is conveyed up into the inner of the drill as the drill pe ⁇ netrates down into the layers of soil, in which drilling is performed.
- the drilled material is brought out of the drill in a disintegrated and suspended condition in the drilling medium used for the drilling.
- the drill can also be used with a drilling mud which is thickened by means of for instance bentonite, or by means of air supplied at a corresponding pressure or at a somewhat higher pressure.
- air is a preferred alternative, which is in prac ⁇ tice particularly easy to handle and effective, especially because of the fact that the drill according to the inven ⁇ tion operates very quickly in comparison with the known drills, for which reason the necessary consumption of air becomes moderate on account of the shorter drilling time.
- the drilling apparatus it may be constructed in such a way that it is possible to take up coherent cores.
- the embodiment which is shown in Figs. 2 and 3, comprises front part of the drill 1 with the nozzles and the cutter head shown in Fig. 3, said front part being rotatable in re ⁇ lation to the remaining shaft of the drill, the front end of which is shown in Fig. 2.
- the two parts of the drill are connected along a dividing area acting as a valve for the control of the supply of drilling medium to the nozzles di- rected towards the center of the clear in the inner pipe.
- Fig. 2 shows an embodiment of the joint surface 9 on the front part of the drill shaft.
- the joint surface com ⁇ prises a pair of keyhole-shaped openings 10 engaging a cor ⁇ responding pair of studs 11 placed on the end surface 12 of the drill shaft (Fig. 3) cooperating with the joint or abutment surface 9.
- the studs 11 have a head 14, which may just pass through the enlarged part 15 of the openings 10. After insertion in the openings 10, the studs are locked in the narrow part of the openings 10 by means of set screws 16. The studs 11 cannot pass the screws into the enlarged part, and the two parts of the drill are thereby safely connected.
- the dividing area 9 furthermore comprises some holes 17 connected with ducts, which supply the inwards towards the inner of the drill directed nozzles with drill- ing medium. These holes 17 are placed in front of holes 18 in the end surface 12 in such a way that the holes 17 and 18 are on line in the angular position, which the two parts have, when the studs are in one end of the keyhole-shaped openings, and displaced so much in relation to each other that there is no passage, when the studs 11 are in the posi ⁇ tion defined by the set screws 16. In the position, in which the nozzles directed towards the clear are closed, the hole 18 is positioned in front of the circle 19 drawn in broken lines.
- the opening and the closing of the passages through the two set of holes 17 and 18 are controlled by a change of the rotational direction of the drill.
- the supply of drilling medium to the nozzles directed inwards towards the clear in the drill is blocked, and if drilling is made with this rotational direction a core of the material, in which the drill penetrates, will form in the inner of the drill.
- This core may either be taken up together with the drill or by changing the rotational direction of the drill, whereby the radially inwards directed nozzles are provided with drilling medium, which will cut off the core, which will then under normal circumstances be shot up through the inner of the drill by means of a flow of drilling medium introduced through the ejector nozzles.
- the method described requires when air is used as drilling medium certain precautions to ensure a safe catching of the core, which is on account of the expansion of the air shoot out of the drill pipe like a projectile.
- the contact surface may also be elaborated in other ways.
- the contact surface may comprise one or more cylindrical or conical sections, which can guide the two parts radially in relation to each other.
- the contact surface When constructing the contact surface with a cylindrical section the need for keyhole-shaped openings does not exist, as the two parts may be interlocked by means of one or more radial ⁇ ly extending pins, which are displaceable in oblong holes extending along a part of the circumphery of the other part.
- valve function is secured in a corresponding way through openings or recesses which are in line with one another in one of the angular positions, and which in the other posi ⁇ tion are displaced so much mutually that there is no passage between the holes.
- passage should be allowed through some of the pairs of holes which are con ⁇ nected to the nozzles placed in the end wall, said nozzles ejecting approximately axially directed jets of drilling me- dium into the interspaces between the cutting metal bits.
- These holes may have a suitable oblong shape which ensuring a suitable flow cross section in both positions, or they ma be elaborated in such a way that the flow cross section is smallest when the remaining nozzles are blocked and the big gest pressure is available for overcoming the flow re ⁇ sistance.
