- the drill bit may be rotated by rotation of the drill string from the surface or by a drill bit rotation drilling motor.
- a motor powered hammer may be used to generate rotational output that is converted to axial reciprocation, thereby providing a reciprocating action to hammer the drill bit.
- the reciprocating action of the hammer may move independently of a housing and independent of weight on bit that is applied to the housing.
- the motor powered hammer may operate without requiring an oscillating type design using a variable orifice (e.g., valve block) to redirect and/or restrict flow.

- Independent control of bit rotational speed and/or weight on bit from hammer impact speed may be provided with bit rotation by surface equipment (without requiring a second, bit rotation motor). Hydraulic motors may be used to increase speed, for example, by increasing flow rate. Independent control may also be provided by using a bit rotation motor that is electrically powered.
- the motor is used solely to provide rotational speed and torque to create axial reciprocation of a hammer mass.
- High hydraulic pressure drop through the hammer shaft nozzle can thus be used to create large downward hammer force over the available annular thrust area as the motor torque available may be used solely to pull the hammer shaft upwards with the hydraulic pressure pushing it downwards to create the impact on the bit.
- No torque from the hammer motor is used to drill the bit rotationally.
- the hammer may be coupled to the motor (stator or rotor) and rotates in the hammer tool housing as a response of fluid flow in the motor.
- the hammer may have a cam surface to gradually lift the hammer as it rotates.

- the hammer may have a flow passage restricted by a nozzle to provide a controllable down thrust force.
- the hammer may impact the bit (directly or indirectly). Rotation between the bit and the hammer tool housing may be prevented (by a threaded connection or a splined connection).

- the drilling assembly 200 has a stator housing 215, a hammer motor 211, an output shaft adapter 216, a spline driver 224, a hammer 218 and a bit 204.
- Figures 2B-6 show detailed views of various portions of the drilling assembly 200 of Figure 2A.
- FIG. 2B shows the hammer motor 211 in greater detail.
- the hammer motor 211 may be a conventional drilling motor, such as those described herein. Small modifications may be made to the lower end of the hammer motor 211 (i.e. outer bearing, casing, bit box and/or output shaft). Fluid passes through the drilling assembly 200 to rotationally drive the hammer motor 211.
- the hammer motor 211 has a rotor 220 rotationally driven within a stator 222 as fluid flows therethrough.
- the hammer motor 211 may also be provided with joints 212 (e.g., universal joints), motor shafts 217a,b , bearings 219 and other features. Motor shafts 217a,b as shown include a flexible shaft 217a and an output shaft 217b.
- fluid passes through the hammer motor 211, through the output shaft adapter 216 and hammer 218, and out the bit 204.
- Flow restrictors 225 e.g., journal or other bearings
- Coating e.g., tungsten carbide coating
- a nozzle 223 may also be provided to selectively restrict flow through the downhole drilling assembly 200.
- the nozzle 223 may be used to increase the pressure drop and increase thrust of the hammer.

- the inner drive splines 226 are engageable with corresponding outer splines 228 on the hammer 218 for rotation therewith as shown in Figure 5.
- Bearings 225 e.g., radial bearings
- guide pins 230 extend through the housing 215 and into a guide channel 232 on an outer surface of the hammer 218. As shown, three guide pins 230 are provided about the hammer 218, but a desired number (e.g., from about 1 to about 6 guide pins 230) may be provided to facilitate operation thereof.
- the guide pins 230 may be rotationally supported in the guide channel 232 by bearings, such as journal bearings 23 la as shown in Figure 4A and/or ball bearings 23 lb as in Figure 4B.
- the guide pins 230 may be provided with a bearing assembly with the bearings 23 la,b mounted therearound to support the guide pins 230 for rotation and wear prevention.
- the guide channel 232 slidingly receives the guide pins 230 as the hammer 218 rotates within the housing 215.
- the guide channel 232 has a wave pattern ( Figure 5) with peaks and valleys to define a path for movement of the guide pins 230 therealong.
- the wave (or undulating or helical) guide channel 232 may act as a gear box to convert motor rotation into axial reciprocation of the hammer.
- the guide channel 232 design may be, for example, a shallow sine wave (or undulating) profile helix. Impact may be diverted away from the guide pins 230 by providing milled cut-outs at a downhole end of the wave pattern.
- the wave pattern may be configured to prevent the guide pins 230 from bottoming out on the tops of the milled undulating profile and/or to prevent potential wear, bending and/or deformation of the guide pins 230 and the guide channel 232 as they are subject to loading.
- the hammer 218 impacts three times per rotation. The number of impacts may be adjusted by the number of guide pins and the shape of the guide channel 232. Axial speed of the hammer 218 can be calculated based on the wave profile of the guide channel 232 that is provided and the speed of rotating the hammer motor 218.
- the shape of the guide channel 232 may be configured to allow the hammer 218 to move axially back and forth in a reciprocating pattern as the hammer 218 rotates within the housing 215.
- the hammer 218 may move axially within the housing 215 and independent of axial movement of the housing 215.
- the hammer 218 may be movable within the housing 215 such that the hammer is independent of weight on bit applied to the housing 215 from the surface.
- the hammer head 227 contacts the bit 204 as indicated by the arrow in Figure 6.
- the hammer action may be used to provide a small force/high frequency impact to the bit 104.
- the hammer head 227 retracts a distance from the bit 204.
- a downhole end of the hammer head 227 and an uphole end of the bit 204 may have corresponding large flat circular surfaces for shock absorption and wear prevention.
- the hammer head 227 may be provided with, for example, splayed and swaged metal or inserts to prevent wear.
- a mass force of the hammer 218 at impact may be calculated, with the force being equal to a pressure drop across the flow area (e.g., at the nozzle 223) times the area between a flow restrictor, such as radial bearing 225 diameter) and the flow area at the nozzle 223.
- Bypass flow may cool the flow restrictors 225 which pass through holes above the guide pins 230 in the hammer 218, for example where a sealed bearing output shaft motor is used.
- Bypass leakage may be from about 5 to about 15 percent of total flow rate through the downhole drilling assembly 200, but with about 100% of the flow exiting nozzles in the bit 204.
- Flow through the drilling assembly 200 and/or the drilling motor 211 may be configured as shown, for example, in Figure 1.
- the bits as used herein may be connected to the housing of the drilling assembly 200, for example, by a threaded joint, a splined or a flexible bellows connection.
- the threaded joint connection may be used, for example, which will result in the outer casing to at least partially absorb forces on the drilling assembly as the hammer moves between a non-contact position and a contact position about the bit. The forces may be absorbed to reduce the force on the bit.
- the splined connection or flexible bellows at the bit (as shown for example in Figures 21-28) the full hammer force may be transferred to provide more force on the bit.
- a threaded connection may also absorb some of the hammer input. Sealing may be needed for the various connections, such as the splined connection.
- the flexible bellows connection may provide an intermediate design, for example, to eliminate the need for dynamic sealing as may be needed with a splined connection.
- FIGs 7-8 show various views of an example of a drilling assembly 700 with a hammer motor 711 usable, for example, in the drilling system 100 of Figure 1.
