A roller cone drill bit is disclosed which includes a bit body adapted to be coupled to a drill string. A bearing journal depends from the bit body. A single roller cone is rotatably attached to the bearing journal. The roller cone has a plurality of inserts disposed at selected positions about the cone. The journal defines a rotation angle with respect to an axis of rotation of the bit such that the roller cone includes a wall contact zone and a bottom contact zone. At least one of the inserts disposed in the wall contact zone has an extension portion terminating in a substantially planar upper surface.

A roller cone drill bit is disclosed which includes a bit body adapted to be coupled to a drill string, a bearing journal depending from the bit body and a single roller cone rotatably attached to the journal. The roller cone has a plurality of inserts disposed thereon. In one aspect, the inserts have an extension length of at least 0.6 inches. A roller cone drill bit is disclosed, including a bit body, a bearing journal depending from the bit body, and a single roller cone rotatably attached to the journal. The roller cone has a plurality of inserts disposed thereon. In another aspect, the inserts are arranged such that at most about 20 percent of the inserts are crossed substantially at centerlines thereof by any single plane which contains the axis of the cone axis 10 and which crosses at least two of the inserts.

An insert for a drill bit is disclosed which includes an exposed surface having a contact portion adapted to periodically contact earthen formation. The contact portion includes a polycrystalline diamond material having a hardness in the range of about 2000 HV to about 3000 HV. In some embodiments, the polycrystalline diamond material includes a composite having a first phase material including polycrystalline diamond and a second phase material selected from the group of oxide particulates metal carbides, and metallic particulates, nitrides, and mixtures of thereof.
摘要:
Enhanced inserts are formed having a cylindrical grip and a protrusion extending from the grip. An ultra hard material layer is bonded on top of the protrusion. The inserts are mounted on a rock bit and contact the earth formations off center. The ultra hard material layer is thickest at a critical zone which encompasses a major portion of the region of contact between the insert and the earth formation. Transition layers may also be formed between the ultra hard material layer and the protrusion so as to reduce the residual stresses formed on the interface between the ultra hard material and the protrusion.
摘要:
Composite constructions of this invention comprise an ordered microstructure made up of multiple structural units that can be the same or different, and that comprise at least a first structural phase and a second structural phase. The first structural phase comprises a hard material that is selected from the group consisting of cermet materials, PCD, PCBN and mixtures thereof. The second structural phase is in contact with the first phase and comprises a material that is different than that selected to form the first structural phase. Additionally, the second structural phase is in contact with at least a portion of the first structural phase. Composite constructions of this invention can also have a multi-layer structures comprising two or more layers, wherein at least one of the layers comprises a composite construction having an ordered microstructure made up of the multiple structural units described above.
摘要:
A tungsten carbide chisel insert for rock bits is disclosed having a cylindrical base section and a cutting tip section, the top of the tip section having an elongated crest, the remainder of the cutting tip section below the crest is a contoured surface formed having cross-sections being shaped as to provide for better overall performance.
