[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings. It is clear that the described embodiments represent only some embodiments of this utility model and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments that a person skilled in the art can arrive at without inventive effort fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] One embodiment of the present utility model provides a drill rod with a polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) coating. As in the Fig. As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the drill rod comprises a rod body (1), a first connecting head (2), a second connecting head (3) and a socket or socket pipe (4).

[0018] In this embodiment, a PPS film is applied or wound onto the surface of the rod body (1). The film is wound helically along the longitudinal direction of the rod body (1) and attached to the surface of the rod body (1) by adhesive bonding. The PPS film exhibits excellent resistance to high temperatures and chemical corrosion, thereby effectively protecting the rod body (1) and extending the service life of the drill rod.

[0019] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first connecting head (2) is arranged at the lower end of the rod body (1), its cross-sectional radius being larger than that of the rod body (1). This design allows the first connecting head (2) to provide a larger contact area when connected to external devices or other drill rods, thereby increasing the connection stability. A first chamfer (6), designed as an arcuate or circular chamfer, is provided at the corner of the lower end of the first connecting head (2).

[0020] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the second connecting head (3) is arranged at the lower end of the first connecting head (2) and has a polygonal cross-section, which can, in particular, assume the shape of a hexagon or another conventional shape. The second connecting head (3) is inserted into the connecting opening (12) formed at the upper end of the rod body (1). Such a polygonal connection design ensures that the second connecting head (3) does not rotate relative to the connecting opening (12) during the connection process, thereby increasing the reliability of the connection. A second chamfer (7) is provided at the corner of the lower end of the second connecting head (3), which is also formed as an arcuate or circular chamfer. This facilitates the insertion of the second connecting head (3) into the connecting opening (12), protects the edges, and reduces the occurrence of stress concentrations.

[0021] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the sleeve or sleeve tube (4) is arranged at the upper end of the rod body (1) and is movable in the longitudinal direction of the rod body (1). The lower end of the sleeve (4) rests slidably against the side wall of the rod body (1). A projection (11) is provided at the upper end of the side wall of the rod body (1). The projection (11) surrounds the rod body (1) in an annular manner and is arranged in the threaded area (10) of the sleeve (4). The projection (11) is movable in the threaded area (10) in the longitudinal direction of the rod body (1) and also serves to prevent the sleeve (4) from detaching from the upper end of the rod body (1). The threaded area (10) is provided with an internal thread, while the surface of the first connecting head (2) has an external thread.The sleeve (4) and the first connecting head (2) engage via the internal thread of the threaded section (10) and the external thread on the surface of the first connecting head (2). This threaded connection facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the boring bar while simultaneously ensuring a secure connection. The depth of the threaded chamber (10) corresponds to the sum of the thickness of the extension (11) and the length of the second connecting head (3). These dimensions ensure a precise fit between the sleeve (4) and the first connecting head (2), preventing an insufficient or faulty connection.

[0022] Furthermore, recesses (5) are provided on the outer wall of the sleeve (4), with at least one pair arranged symmetrically. The recesses (5) facilitate operation by allowing the sleeve (4) to be gripped and rotated with a tool, thus making it easier to screw the sleeve (4) onto or off the first connecting head (2). A third chamfer (8), designed as a beveled chamfer, is provided on the outer edge of the lower end of the sleeve (4), while a fourth chamfer (9), designed as an arcuate or rounded chamfer, is provided on the outer edge of the upper end of the sleeve (4). These chamfers serve to protect the edges, reduce the occurrence of stress concentrations, lower drilling resistance, and also improve the external appearance of the drill rod. How it works

[0023] When used, if a connection of drill rods is required, the second connecting head (3) of one drill rod is inserted into the connecting opening (12) at the upper end of another drill rod. Since the second connecting head (3) is polygonal, relative rotation between the two drill rods is prevented after insertion into the connecting opening (12). Subsequently, the sleeve (4) is rotated by engaging a tool in the recesses (5), causing the threaded section (10) inside the sleeve (4) to engage with the external thread provided on the surface of the first connecting head (2). As the sleeve (4) continues to rotate, it gradually moves downwards until it rests firmly against the projection (11) on the side wall of the rod body (1). At this point, the two drill rods are reliably connected.

[0024] During drilling operations, the PPS film on the surface of the drill rod body (1) protects the rod body. Due to its resistance to high temperatures and chemical corrosion, the PPS film prevents the drill rod body (1) from being damaged by heat or chemical substances in the working environment, thus extending the service life of the drill rod. At the same time, the chamfers on the components reduce the occurrence of stress concentrations, prevent edge damage under external loads, and ensure the normal operation of the drill rod.

[0025] All technical features of this embodiment can be freely combined as required.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the embodiments described above represent only preferred examples of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments described above, a person skilled in the art may modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments or replace individual technical features with equivalent ones. All such modifications, equivalent replacements, or improvements made in the spirit and within the principle of the present utility model fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
