Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mining equipment technology, and in particular to a guide hole guide and drilling equipment. Background Technology
[0002] When operating a raise drilling rig, the process typically begins with drilling a pilot hole in the upper tunnel using a roller cone drill bit. Once the pilot hole connects to the lower tunnel, the roller cone drill bit is removed, and a large-diameter reamer is connected. The raise drilling rig's feed cylinder and rotary gearbox generate tension and rotational torque to create rock-breaking drilling pressure, forming a large-diameter raise. During pilot hole drilling, the raise drilling rig applies rotational torque and drilling pressure to the roller cone drill bit. The roller cone drill bit impacts, compresses, and scrapes the rock, separating it from the rock mass to form a circular pilot hole.
[0003] The quality of the pilot hole construction in a well drilling rig is crucial for the successful completion of the well. However, roller cone drill bits experience wear during drilling through rock formations, especially in deep wells, ultra-hard rock formations, and abrasion-resistant rock formations, where wear is accelerated. As the roller cone drill bit wears and the drilling depth increases, the pilot hole diameter becomes smaller and smaller, making it impossible to guarantee the consistency of the pilot hole diameter. The gradual reduction in the pilot hole diameter can cause a series of engineering problems, such as abnormal wear of the stabilizer rod, slow drilling speed, difficulty in removing slag, abnormal wear of the cutterhead in subsequent hole enlargement processes, increased cutterhead wobbling, and even breakage of the cutterhead tie rod.

[0038] The roller cone drill bit 410 of the drilling equipment is usually connected to the drill rod via a reducing coupling 400, see reference. Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the guide hole guide valve is installed on the reducing joint 400. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 3 The guide hole diameter maintainer of the first aspect of this utility model includes a tube body 100, a through hole 110 axially penetrating the tube body 100, a limiting structure 111 on the inner side wall of the through hole 110, a reducing joint 400 passing through the through hole 110, and the reducing joint 400 being connected to the tube body 100 by a spline drive, which facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the tube body 100; however, other transmission connection methods can also be selected between the tube body 100 and the reducing joint 400 according to the actual situation.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the outer peripheral wall of the pipe body 100 is equipped with rock-breaking teeth 200 and stabilizing teeth 300. The rock-breaking teeth 200 are located at the first end in the axial direction of the pipe body 100, and the stabilizing teeth 300 are located at the second end in the axial direction of the pipe body 100. Along the radial direction of the pipe body 100, the tooth tip diameter of the rock-breaking teeth 200 is equal to the diameter of the roller cone drill bit 410, so that the rock-breaking teeth 200 can participate in rock-breaking operations after the roller cone drill bit 410 wears, thereby reducing the wear of the roller cone drill bit 410 and improving the drilling efficiency. The tooth tip diameter of the stabilizing teeth 300 is equal to the diameter of the drilling hole, so that the stabilizing teeth 300 can fit against the hole wall of the drilling hole, playing a stabilizing support role during drilling operations and ensuring the quality of the drilling hole.
[0040] In an embodiment of this utility model, the outer peripheral wall of the pipe body 100 is provided with a plurality of protruding ribs 120, which are spaced apart around the circumference, and a slag discharge groove 130 is formed between adjacent ribs 120; the length extension direction of the ribs 120 is parallel to the axial direction of the pipe body 100; the number of ribs 120 can be adjusted according to the diameter of the pipe body 100. The function of the slag discharge groove 130 is to provide drainage and slag discharge during the guide hole operation. To facilitate the discharge of wastewater and waste residue, refer to... Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the connection between the rib 120 and the pipe body 100 is provided with an arc-shaped chamfer 121. The arc-shaped chamfer 121 can make the cross-section of the slag discharge trough 130 arc-shaped, thereby effectively preventing slag from getting stuck and improving the smoothness of drainage and slag discharge.
[0041] In an embodiment of this utility model, the rock-breaking teeth 200 and / or stabilizing teeth 300 are mounted on the rib 120. Specifically, refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, both the rock-breaking tooth 200 and the stabilizing tooth 300 are installed on the rib 120. The rock-breaking tooth 200 is installed at the first end of the rib 120 along its length, and the stabilizing tooth 300 is installed at the second end of the rib 120 along its length. The first end of the rib 120 along its length is located at the first end of the tube body 100 along its axis, and the second end of the rib 120 along its length is located at the second end of the tube body 100 along its axis. The first end of the rib 120 along its length is close to the roller cone drill bit 410, and the second end of the rib 120 along its length is far away from the roller cone drill bit 410. This ensures that both the rock-breaking tooth 200 and the stabilizing tooth 300 can function effectively.
[0042] In an embodiment of this utility model, along the axial direction of the pipe body 100, the rib 120 includes a first mounting surface 122 and a second mounting surface 123; along the radial direction of the pipe body 100, the first mounting surface 122 is lower than the second mounting surface 123; the rock-breaking tooth 200 is mounted on the first mounting surface 122, and the stabilizing tooth 300 is mounted on the second mounting surface 123. Specifically, refer to... Figure 1 As shown, the tip diameter of the rock-breaking tooth 200 is basically equal to the tip diameter of the stabilizing tooth 300. However, the size of the rock-breaking tooth 200 is larger than the size of the stabilizing tooth 300. Therefore, the first mounting surface 122 is lower than the second mounting surface 123 to ensure that the tip diameter of the rock-breaking tooth 200 is basically equal to the tip diameter of the stabilizing tooth 300.
[0043] Furthermore, the pipe body 100 is provided with a plurality of rock-breaking teeth 200, which are spaced apart along the length direction of the first mounting surface 122; the pipe body 100 is provided with a plurality of stabilizing teeth 300, which are arranged on the second mounting surface 123.
[0044] In this embodiment of the invention, the rock-breaking tooth 200 is a wedge-shaped tooth. The tooth shape and size of the rock-breaking tooth 200 are basically the same as those of the teeth on the roller cone drill bit 410. When the teeth on the roller cone drill bit 410 wear down, the rock-breaking tooth 200 can achieve the same rock-breaking effect as the roller cone drill bit 410. The stabilizing tooth 300 is an arc-shaped tooth. The stabilizing tooth 300 mainly fits against the wall of the guide hole. Setting the stabilizing tooth 300 as arc-shaped can reduce the wear of the stabilizing tooth 300 and extend its service life.
[0045] In an embodiment of this utility model, a transition surface 124 is provided between the first mounting surface 122 and the second mounting surface 123, and the transition surface 124 is inclined. Specifically, refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the inclined transition surface 124 can reduce the impact of debris on the transition surface 124 and reduce the wear of the transition surface 124, thereby extending the service life of the pipe body 100.
[0046] The drilling equipment according to the second aspect of the present invention includes the aforementioned guide hole diameter maintainer; the drilling equipment of this embodiment has good consistency in the diameter of the guide hole, fast drilling speed, and good safety; since the drilling equipment includes the aforementioned guide hole diameter maintainer, it also has at least all the beneficial effects of the guide hole diameter maintainer, which will not be elaborated here.
