摘要:
Disclosed is an abrasive tool insert (10) having an abrasive particle layer (14) having an upper surface, an outer periphery, and a lower surface integrally formed on a substrate (12) which defines an interface therebetween. The abrasive particle layer outer periphery forms a cutting plane. The thickness of the abrasive particle layer at its outer periphery cutting plane decreases radially inwardly. Thus, the interface can have a sawtooth shape cross-sectional profile, at least one slot extending from said abrasive particle layer outer periphery radially inwardly, or other configuration based on the precepts of the present invention. Also, the angle of the outwardly sloping profile can be matched to the anticipated angle of the wear plane which will develop as the PDC wears in use.

The present invention is addressed to improving a blank for a wire drawing did (60) formed from an annular cemented metal carbide support component (66) having a lengthwise extent from an entrance end (68) to an exit end (78) and extending radially about a central longitudinal axis (75) to define a cylindrical internal bore through the lengthwise extent, and a cylindrical sintered polycrystalline compact component (62) received within the bore of the support component and bonded thereto at an interface surface (63) extending a radial distance from and along the longitudinal axis from a wire drawing entrance end to a wire drawing exit end. The compact component is adapted to receive an aperture extending through its lengthwise extent about the central longitudinal axis and is configured with an entrance zone (1) at the did entrance end which tapers inwardly therefrom to a reduction zone (2) whereat a wire to be drawn through the aperture makes initial contact with the compact component, and thence to a bearing zone (3) and an exit zone (4). The improvement in such wire drawing did blank involves the radial distance from said central longitudinal axis to said interface surface tapering inwardly (74) from the entrance end to a minimum prior to the bearing zone after which said radial distance remains substantially constant to said exit end. The corresponding wire drawing did and the method for producing the inventive wire drawing blank also form additional aspects of the present invention.
摘要:
The present invention relates to supported polycrystalline diamond compact cutters (PDC cutters) made under high temperature, high pressure (HT/HP) processing conditions, and more particularly to supported PDC cutters having non-planar cutting surfaces. More specifically, the present invention is for an oriented PDC cutter (10) wherein chips and debris (16) are funneled away from the cutting edge (18) by the edges (20) of a raised top surface (14) of the polycrystalline diamond layer (PCD layer). The redirection of the debris is achieved by the creation of high and low regions on the PCD layer, of which there can be a variety of different surface geometries. Thus, an object of the present invention is to provide a PDC cutter with improved performance through channeling debris away from its cutting edge.
摘要:
Supported polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) cutters made under high temperature, high pressure (HT/HP) processing conditions, have non-planar interfaces (12) between the polycrystalline diamond (PCD) layer (10) and the cemented carbide support layer(14). The object of the present invention is to provide a PDC cutter with improved resistance to cracking during installation. The present invention is valuable as an improved way to manufacture PDC cutters with unique properties. The WC-PCD interface geometry of the present invention provides a better match between the WC substrate and the PCD layer. The primary advantage of this interface geometry is enhanced performance and reduced installation and/ or brazing breakage due to improved residual stress at the WC-PCD interface.

摘要:
This invention relates to a novel domed polycrystalline diamond cutting element wherein a hemispherical diamond layer is bonded to a tungsten carbide substrate, commonly referred to as a tungsten carbide stud. Broadly, a pattern of ridges or bumps is integrally formed in the abrasive layer which ridges are designed to cause high localized stresses in the rock, thus starting a crack. By initiating cracks in localized areas, the crushing action could be performed with less force.

The present invention relates to a novel domed polycrystalline diamond cutting element (10) wherein a hemispherical diamond layer (14) is bonded to a tungsten carbide substrate (16), commonly referred to as a tungsten carbide stud. Broadly, the inventive cutting element includes a metal carbide stud having a proximal end adapted to be placed into a drill bit (12) and a distal end portion. A layer of cutting polycrystalline abrasive material disposed over said distal end portion such that an annulus (20) of metal carbide adjacent and above said drill bit is not covered by said abrasive material layer. The geometry of the diamond cutting element provides control of interfacial stresses and reduces fabrication costs. The diamond cutting element may contain a pattern of ridges or bumps integrally formed in the abrasive layer which ridges are designed to cause high localized stresses in the rock, thus starting a crack. By initiating cracks in localized areas, the crushing action could be performed with less force.
