Description
Technical Field

[0002] During highway construction, it is necessary to sample and test the construction environment to determine the formation structure composition. The sample is obtained by drilling a core with a cylindrical drill bit. Due to the complexity and uncertainty of the underground environment, especially when the drill bit edge encounters harder gravel in relatively soft soil layers, the cutting resistance of the drill bit increases sharply, which is likely to cause serious wear of the drill bit or even chipping of the edge. More dangerously, after the drill bit is suddenly blocked, the powerful reverse torque will be transmitted to the equipment through the drill bit, which is likely to cause vibration and damage to the equipment. If it is a simple manually supported coring device, it is also likely to cause the equipment to get out of control and pose a danger to the operator.

[0027] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Example, see Figures 1 to 9 This embodiment provides a road coring machine for geographic surveying and mapping of highway construction. When the coring drill bit is blocked in cutting, the coring drill bit is adaptively lifted up to reduce the downward pressure of the coring drill bit and reduce the cutting force and feed speed, thereby avoiding the danger caused by the surge of the reverse torque of the coring drill bit. Figure 1 As shown, it includes a torque protection mechanism 100 disposed at the end of the output shaft of the coring machine, and a coring drill bit disposed at the end of the torque protection mechanism 100; Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the torque protection mechanism 100 includes a sleeve 101 with an opening pointing vertically upward, and the cross-section of the groove of the sleeve 101 along any radial direction is in a "convex" shape, a bolt 102 is screwed on the top of the sleeve 101, a spring 103 is sleeved between the head of the bolt 102 and the top of the sleeve 101, a short pin 104 is fixedly inserted in the radial direction of the bottom end of the bolt 102, and a top screw 105 is threadedly fastened to the bottom end of the bolt 102 along the axial direction, and the top end of the top screw 105 presses against the short pin 104.
[0029] Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the outer wall of the bottom end of the sleeve 101 is provided with a thread to be fastened with the coring drill bit, and the top end of the bolt 102 is provided with a threaded hole along its radial direction to be fastened with the output shaft of the coring machine, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, an annular groove 106 is coaxially formed on the top surface of the sleeve 101 and the bottom surface of the head of the bolt 102, and both ends of the spring 103 are respectively pressed into the two annular grooves.
[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, four main balls 107 are arranged in the spiral groove of the bolt 102, and the difference between two adjacent main balls 107 is one quarter of the spiral groove pitch of the bolt 102. Figure 7 As shown, the inner wall of the sleeve 101 is provided with four annular sliding grooves 101a at the small diameter portion thereof. Figure 3 As shown, the positions of the four slide grooves 101a correspond to four main balls 107 respectively, and the slide grooves 101a are filled with auxiliary balls 108, and the auxiliary balls 108 and the main balls 107 are in rolling contact, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the slide groove 101a is located at the main ball 107 and is concave inward, and there are three auxiliary balls 108 in the concave part of the slide groove 101a that are in rolling contact with the main ball 107. Figure 5As shown, a circlip 109 is clamped at the notch of each chute 101a. As Figure 6 and Figure 8 shown, the open ends of the circlip 109 are concave spherical surfaces and are sleeved with the main ball 107, and spherical concave surfaces are provided at both side edges of the chute 101a at the main ball 107 and are sleeved with the main ball 107.
[0031] As Figure 9 shown, there are three short pins 104 distributed in an annular array about the bolt 102, and the mutually remote ends of the short pins 104 are arc surfaces that are in sliding contact with the inner wall of the large-diameter section of the groove of the sleeve 101. At the mutually close ends of the short pins 104, cut surfaces 104a are provided at an angle of 120 degrees, and the mutually close ends of the short pins 104 are closely attached through the cut surfaces 104a. Key grooves 104b are formed at the contact positions between the peripheral walls of the short pins 104 and the setscrews 105, and the tops of the setscrews 105 are circular ring protrusions and are snap-fitted with the key grooves 104b. As Figure 2 and Figure 7 shown, jack holes 101b are formed in the side wall of the sleeve 101 at the positions of the short pins 104, and the contours of the jack holes 101b are oval-shaped, and the long sides of the oval shapes of the jack holes 101b are vertically arranged.
[0032] The present invention provides a pavement coring machine for highway construction geographical surveying, and mainly provides a torque protection mechanism 100. This mechanism is serially assembled between the coring bit and the equipment output shaft and is used for adaptively adjusting the downward pressure of the coring bit during cutting and protecting the coring bit against sudden increase in reverse torque.
[0033] Referring to Figure 2 , in the case of no external force intervention, the coring bit and the sleeve 101 rotate together with the bolt 102. When the coring bit is cutting, the direction of the cutting resistance it receives is opposite to its rotation direction. Taking the bolt 102 as a reference system, this cutting resistance has a tendency to make the sleeve 101 rotate upward along the spiral groove of the bolt 102, thereby reducing the downward drilling pressure of the coring bit, and further causing the cutting pressure and the cutting resistance to decrease. After adding the spring 103 to the torque protection mechanism 100, a thrust is generated on the sleeve 101 downward relative to the bolt 102 by the spring 103 to prevent the coring bit and the casing from climbing upward relative to the bolt 102 during cutting. When this tendency is effectively suppressed, the coring bit can continue the drilling operation.
[0034] According to the action mode of the above torque protection mechanism 100, obviously, as long as a spring 103 that matches the cutting force of the core drill bit used is selected, the torque protection mechanism 100 can play its role. Under the supporting action of this spring 103, the bolt 102 can transmit sufficient torque to the sleeve 101 and the core drill bit through the downward pressure of the spring 103 to meet the normal working torque requirements of the core drill bit. When abnormal situations such as blockage occur during the drilling process of the core drill bit and the cutting resistance surges, taking the core drill bit as a reference system, the torsional force of the continuously rotating bolt 102 will break through the elastic force of the spring 103, causing the bolt 102 to compress the spring 103 and rotate relatively into the sleeve 101. In actual working conditions, it is manifested that once the core drill bit is blocked beyond the supporting force of the spring 103, it will rotate relatively slower than the bolt 102 together with the sleeve 101, compress the spring 103, and lift upward, avoiding the continuous deterioration of the working conditions of the core drill bit and achieving the purpose of torque protection;
[0035] According to the above torque protection action process, the spring 103 is in a severely compressed state, and the thrust on the sleeve 101 is close to the maximum. That is to say, when the torque protection is triggered, the cutting downward pressure of the core drill bit is higher than that in the normal drilling operation state. The core drill bit can obtain a higher torque to break through obstacles in the torque protection state, and there will be no situation where the core drill bit slips and fails to continue operating;
[0036] After knowing that the torque transmitted by the torque protection mechanism 100 to the core drill bit is strongly related to the elastic force (compression degree) of the spring 103, the downward feeding speed of the core drill should be controlled to avoid the spring 103 being completely compressed. When the spring 103 is completely compressed, the sleeve 101 completely loses the upward movement space, and the torque protection function will fail. At this time, the torque of the core drill will be completely transmitted to the core drill bit. 200
[0037] Regarding the screw connection between the bolt 102 and the sleeve 101:
[0038] The input end (bolt 102) and the output end (sleeve 101) of the torque protection mechanism 100 must be in a spiral assembly and cannot adopt a simple straight groove insertion method. This is because the reaction force of the core drill bit during rotary cutting is opposite to the movement direction of the core drill bit, including the rotary cutting movement and the axial feeding movement of the core drill bit. Among them, the rotary cutting force of the core drill bit accounts for a relatively large proportion, and it is almost perpendicular to the axis direction of the core drill bit. Therefore, the force received when the core drill bit is blocked during drilling is extremely difficult to be released through the axis direction of the core drill bit, and the torque protection mechanism 100 must be guided through a spiral structure to play its role;
[0039] Reference Figure 3, four main balls 107 are evenly distributed in the spiral groove of the bolt 102 within a pitch length range. Relying on the circulating rolling of a circle of secondary balls 108 distributed in the inner wall chute 101a of the sleeve 101, the rolling of the main balls 107 relative to the spiral groove of the bolt 102 is realized, so as to reduce the movement resistance between the bolt 102 and the sleeve 101, and reduce the interference of the reduced movement resistance between the bolt 102 and the sleeve 101 to the torque protection mechanism 100, thereby improving the reliability of the equipment; reference Figure 4 , the chute 101a is designed with an inward concavity at the position of the main ball 107, so that more secondary balls 108 are in contact with the main ball 107. First, it increases the number of force application points between the main ball 107 and the secondary ball 108. Second, it ensures that the secondary ball 108 rolls more smoothly when passing over the main ball 107. Third, it plays a role in limiting the position of the main ball 107;
[0040] The design of this ball structure mainly considers easy processing and manufacturing and anti-pollution performance. Different from the ball nut used in the conventional lead screw, the ball structure design of the torque protection mechanism 100 does not adopt the overall circulation of the lead screw ball nut, but conducts independent circulation through four chutes 101a. When one of the chutes 101a is blocked, it will not affect the use of the balls in other chutes 101a, and it is suitable for the outdoor drilling operation environment with relatively large dust pollution.
[0041] In summary, the core drill of the present invention can adaptively lift the core drill when the core drill bit is blocked during cutting, so as to reduce the downward pressure of the core drill bit, reduce the cutting force and the feed speed, and avoid the danger caused by the sudden increase in the reverse torque of the core drill bit. The key torque protection mechanism is easy to manufacture, simple to assemble and use, and can also be compatibly installed and used in other different types of drilling equipment with a common interface, and has a high promotion and use value.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
