Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] In practical implementation: such as Figures 1-6 As shown, a drill bit for a novel horizontal directional drilling rig in complex formations includes: a drill body 100 and a locking mechanism 400. A rotating seat 200 is inserted into the surface of the drill body 100. One end of the rotating seat 200 is provided with a mounting hole 210. An annular groove 220 communicating with the mounting hole 210 is provided inside the rotating seat 200. A toothed wheel 300 is rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating seat 200.

[0027] The surface of the drill body 100 is provided with annular mounting grooves that match the rotating seat 200. The inside of the drill body 100 is provided with threaded grooves that communicate with the drill body 100. The lower surface of the drill body 100 is provided with external threads. The bottom of the drill body 100 is provided with liquid guiding cavities that are staggered with the mounting grooves. A nozzle facing the roller cone 300 is embedded in the liquid guiding cavity.

[0028] When the drill bit needs to be installed on a horizontal directional drilling rig, the installer only needs to connect the end of the horizontal directional drilling rig's output shaft to the external thread on the lower surface of the drill body 100, and then firmly tighten the end of the horizontal directional drilling rig's output shaft to the drill body 100. At this time, the horizontal directional drilling rig can drive the drill bit to drill into the bottom layer. During the operation of the drill bit, the roller cones 300 alternately contact the formation drilling surface, generating impact, crushing and shearing effects to break the formation rocks. This working method enables the drill bit to cope with formations of different hardness.

[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the locking mechanism 400 includes a bolt 410 inserted into the mounting hole 210. The shank end of the bolt 410 passes through the mounting hole 210 and is threadedly connected to the drill body 100. The head of the bolt 410 has a mounting cavity 411. A U-shaped locking block 420 is slidably connected inside the mounting cavity 411. One end of the U-shaped locking block 420 is engaged with the annular groove 220. The head of the bolt 410 is fitted with a rubber protective sleeve 430 that contacts the mounting hole 210. The other end of the U-shaped locking block 420 is located inside the rubber protective sleeve 430. The end of the rubber protective sleeve 430 facing the drill body 100 is installed on the surface of the bolt 410 facing away from the drill body 100 by heat fusion connection.

[0030] The other end of the U-shaped locking block 420 has a ramp 421, which faces away from the annular groove 220. The cross-sectional dimension of the ramp 421 is larger than the cross-sectional dimension of the U-shaped locking block 420 located outside the mounting cavity 411. This allows the socket wrench to automatically squeeze and displace the U-shaped locking block 420 while the socket covers the head of the bolt 410, eliminating the need for separate adjustment by the user and reducing the user's adjustment burden. There are at least three U-shaped locking blocks 420, which are arranged in a ring around the axis of the guide block 450. This increases the positioning strength of the bolt 410 and further reduces the probability of the bolt 410 loosening. The cross-sectional length of the U-shaped locking block 420 located inside the annular groove 220 is smaller than the cross-sectional length of the U-shaped locking block 420 located outside the bolt 410. This ensures that the socket wrench can adjust one end of the U-shaped locking block 420 into the mounting cavity 411 via the ramp 421.

[0031] When the user needs to replace the gear 300, the user inserts a socket wrench that matches the head of the bolt 410 onto the head of the bolt 410. During this process, the rubber protective sleeve 430 is compressed by the socket wrench. As the rubber protective sleeve 430 is compressed, it indirectly presses against the ramp 421 on the U-shaped retainer 420, causing the U-shaped retainer 420 to slide into the mounting cavity 411 and gradually pull away from the annular groove 220. When the U-shaped retainer 420 is completely separated from the annular groove 220, the bolt 410 is no longer obstructed, and the user can quickly unscrew the bolt 410 using the socket wrench. Then, the user can remove the rotating seat 200 along with the gear 300 from the mounting groove. Next, install the new rotating seat 200 along with the new toothed wheel 300 into the mounting groove. Then, the bolt 410, which holds the U-shaped locking block 420 in place, passes through the mounting hole 210 and aligns with the thread groove. Then, manually rotate the socket wrench in the corresponding direction. The socket wrench drives the bolt 410 to spiral into the thread groove. When the bolt 410 is installed in place, one end of the U-shaped locking block 420 is just aligned with the annular groove 220. At this time, the user removes the socket wrench, and the U-shaped locking block 420 loses its obstruction. The spring 440 quickly resets the U-shaped locking block 420 through the guide block 450, so that the U-shaped locking block 420 quickly locks into the annular groove 220, thereby preventing the bolt 410 from loosening.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a spring 440 is fixedly connected to one of the vertical inner walls of the mounting cavity 411. One end of the spring 440 is fixedly connected to a guide block 450 that contacts the U-shaped locking block 420. The contact surfaces of the U-shaped locking block 420 and the guide block 450 are both inclined surfaces that fit together, with the inclined surface of the U-shaped locking block 420 facing the spring 440. A guide rod 460 is fixedly connected to one of the vertical inner walls of the mounting cavity 411. One end of the guide rod 460 passes through the spring 440 and the guide block 450 in sequence and is fixedly connected to the other vertical inner wall of the mounting cavity 411. A reserved groove 451 is provided at one end of the guide block 450, and one end of the spring 440 is fixedly connected to the vertical inner wall of the reserved groove 451.

[0033] In use, this invention flexibly fills the gap between the bolt 410 and the mounting hole 210 by the rubber protective sleeve 430. This not only prevents impurities such as mud from entering the mounting hole 210, reducing the probability of mud clogging the mounting hole 210 and the bolt 410, but also, during the rotation of the drill bit, the guide block 450, under the action of centrifugal force, pushes the U-shaped locking block 420 outward from the mounting cavity 411. This not only makes the connection between the U-shaped locking block 420 and the annular groove 220 tighter, preventing the bolt 410 from easily loosening during drill bit operation, but also allows the U-shaped locking block 420 to support the rubber protective sleeve 430, making the rubber protective sleeve 430 more robust, thereby improving the mud-blocking effect of the rubber protective sleeve 430.

[0034] It should be noted that the roller cone 300, bolt 410, nozzle, socket wrench and horizontal directional drilling rig mentioned above are all components with relatively mature existing technology. The specific model can be selected according to actual needs. At the same time, the horizontal directional drilling rig can be powered by the built-in power supply or by the mains power. The specific power supply method should be selected according to the situation, which will not be elaborated here.

[0035] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
