AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

While existing drill bit joints improve the strength and torque resistance of threaded connections, they cannot effectively reduce stress concentration, and are difficult to process, have poor sealing performance, and increase manufacturing costs.

Method used

A drill bit joint is designed by setting independent first and second grooves at both ends of the joint, combined with steps and shoulder surfaces to form a V-shaped structure, thereby optimizing stress distribution and enhancing sealing performance.

Benefits of technology

It reduces stress concentration, improves the structural strength and sealing performance of the joint, extends its service life, reduces manufacturing costs, and ensures safe and efficient drilling.

Abstract

This invention relates to oil drilling tools and proposes a drill joint comprising: a first joint and a second joint, which are threadedly connected. At least one first groove is present at the junction of the head end of the first joint and the tail end of the second joint, adjacent to the threaded connection of the first and second joints. At least one second groove is present at the junction of the tail end of the first joint and the head end of the second joint, also adjacent to the threaded connection of the first and second joints. Due to the presence of the first and second grooves, when the first and second joints are under stress, the first and second grooves can reduce stress concentration at that location, thereby improving the overall structural strength. Furthermore, the first and second grooves are independently distributed, thus avoiding the possibility of multiple first or second grooves connecting into a single groove simply to reduce stress concentration, indirectly improving the structural strength of the drill joint connection to a certain extent.
