[0025] The utility model discloses the specific embodiments of the utility model are as follows and further describe the technical scheme of the utility model in connection with the drawings, but the utility model is not limited to these embodiments.

[0026] Please refer to Figs. 1-2 The utility model discloses a variable diameter drill bit, including:

[0027] Drill handle 100, its end is equipped with a plurality of first hinged parts;

[0028] Head 200, its end is equipped with a plurality of second hinged parts;

[0029] Variable diameter assembly, including a plurality of variable diameter unit 300, variable diameter unit 300 includes rotatable connection's first variable diameter arm 310 and second variable diameter arm 320, the first variable diameter arm 310 is away from the second variable diameter arm 320 one end and the first hinged part articulates, and the second variable diameter arm 320 is away from the first variable diameter arm 310 one end and the second hinged part articulates, wherein, the first variable diameter arm 310 and the second variable diameter arm 320 all are along its length direction and are provided with sliding slot 311;

[0030] Supporting rod 330 is arranged between any two adjacent variable diameter unit 300, and one end of the supporting rod 330 is slidably arranged in the sliding slot 311 of one of the variable diameter unit 300, and the other end of the supporting rod 330 is slidably arranged in the sliding slot 311 of the other variable diameter unit 300.

[0031] The application expands or reduces the drill diameter of the drill bit by rotating the first variable diameter arm 310 and the second variable diameter arm 320, and realizes the variable diameter function of the drill bit.

[0032] Importantly, the application is provided with the supporting rod 330 between any two adjacent variable diameter unit 300, and when the drill bit drills a hole, the supporting rod 330 transversely supports the first variable diameter arm 310 and the second variable diameter arm 320, can greatly reduce the transverse stress of the first variable diameter arm 310 and the second variable diameter arm 320, to prevent the first variable diameter arm 310 and the second variable diameter arm 320 from being damaged due to excessive transverse stress, improve the strength of the whole drill bit, prolong its service life, and also can drill holes in higher strength materials.

[0033] Specifically, in order to ensure that the supporting rod 330 has sufficient supporting force, the supporting rod 330 is set as an integral non-stretchable rod. Such non-stretchable structure has the following problems: when the variable diameter unit 300 is unfolded, the spacing between the two first variable diameter arms 310 or the two second variable diameter arms 320 will change, and if the two ends of the supporting rod 330 cannot slide along the sliding slot 311, the variable diameter unit 300 will be pulled by the supporting rod 330 when unfolded and cannot be unfolded.

[0034] Based on this, the application sets a sliding groove 311 on the first variable diameter arm 310 and the second variable diameter arm 320, which is arranged along the length direction of the first variable diameter arm 310 / second variable diameter arm 320. When the variable diameter unit 300 is unfolded, the support rod 330 can slide to different positions along the sliding groove 311 to ensure that the variable diameter unit 300 can be smoothly unfolded and retracted.

[0035] At the same time, assuming that the drill bit is in a vertical state, if the length of the support rod 330 is exactly equal to the distance between two adjacent variable diameter units 300 in the non-unfolded state, then when the variable diameter unit 300 is unfolded, the support rod 330 still cannot slide along the sliding groove 311 to adapt to the increase in the distance between the two variable diameter units 300.

[0036] Based on this, the length of the support rod 330 needs to be slightly larger than the distance between the two variable diameter units 300 in the non-unfolded state, so that the support rod 330 can slide along the sliding groove 311 when the variable diameter unit 300 is unfolded. When the first variable diameter arm 310 and the second variable diameter arm 320 are not unfolded, the first variable diameter arm 310 and the second variable diameter arm 320 are flush with the edge of the shank 100. At this time, the support rod 330 needs to have a certain inclination angle.

[0037] Further, two support rods 330 are arranged between any two adjacent variable diameter units 300, one of which is arranged between the two first variable diameter arms 310, and the other is arranged between the two second variable diameter arms 320.

[0038] Specifically, in order to improve the strength of the entire drill bit, a support rod 330 is arranged between any two adjacent first variable diameter arms 310, and a support rod 330 is arranged between any two adjacent second variable diameter arms 320, to ensure that each first variable diameter arm 310 and each second variable diameter arm 320 can be effectively laterally supported.

[0039] Further, both ends of the support rod 330 are provided with locking bolts for locking the sliding of the support rod 330 along the sliding groove 311.

[0040] Specifically, during the variable diameter process, the two ends of the support rod 330 slide along the sliding groove 311 until the variable diameter process is completed, and then the locking bolts at the two ends of the support rod 330 are tightened to lock the sliding of the end of the support rod 330 in the sliding groove 311, ensuring that the support rod 330 always maintains a fixed position and provides continuous and effective lateral support when the drill bit is drilling.

[0041] Further, the shank 100 is connected to the first variable diameter arm 310 by a hinge, the first variable diameter arm 310 is connected to the second variable diameter arm 320 by a hinge, and the second variable diameter arm 320 is connected to the head 200 by a hinge.

[0042] Further, the hinge has rotatably connected first and second connecting plates, and an anti-wear strip is arranged on the outer side of each of the first and second connecting plates.

[0043] Specifically, the anti-wear strip is welded on the outer side of the first and second connecting plates, and when drilling, the anti-wear strip is in contact with the drilled base material, thereby avoiding direct contact between the hinge and the base material and wear, and prolonging the service life of the hinge.

[0044] Further, the anti-wear strip is arranged at one end of the first connecting plate close to the second connecting plate, or at one end of the second connecting plate close to the first connecting plate.

[0045] Specifically, when the variable-diameter unit 300 is unfolded, the outermost part is the hinge between the first variable-diameter arm 310 and the second variable-diameter arm 320, and the hinge is the hinge between the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate. Therefore, the anti-wear strip is arranged close to the hinge, which can ensure that the anti-wear strip bears most of the cutting wear and plays a protective role for the hinge.

[0046] Further, eight variable-diameter units 300 are arranged between the drill handle 100 and the head 200, and the eight variable-diameter units 300 are uniformly arranged along the circumference of the drill handle 100.

[0047] The eight variable-diameter units 300 are uniformly arranged, so that they can bear force uniformly and avoid damage due to excessive force on a single variable-diameter unit 300.

[0048] Further, a hydraulic rod 340 is further included, a cylinder body of the hydraulic rod 340 is arranged in the drill handle 100, and a telescopic rod of the hydraulic rod 340 extends out of the drill handle 100 and is fixed to the head 200.

[0049] Specifically, the head 200 is moved through the telescopic movement of the hydraulic rod 340, and the head 200 drives all the variable-diameter units 300 to unfold or contract, thereby realizing the variable-diameter function.

[0050] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the utility model are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement condition, etc. between components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the drawings), and if the specific posture changes, the directional indications also change accordingly.

Therefore, the features limited by "first" and "second" can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.
