    摘要: A rock bit for drilling subterranean formations has an improved dynamic O-ring seal for retaining lubricant around the rock bit bearings during operation of the rock bit. Such a bit has a plurality of journal pins, each having a bearing surface, and a cutter cone mounted on each journal pin and including a bearing surface. A grease reservoir is in communication with such bearing surfaces for maintaining grease adjacent to the bearing surfaces. The grease is sealed in with dynamic O-ring seals rotating against a sealing surface with a Vickers hardness of at least 1000 and vibratory burnished to have a surface finish in the range of from 5 to 32 microinches AA. Preferably, the sealing surface is formed on a seal ring interposed between the cone and journal. Preferably the sealing surface comprises a tungsten carbide composite sprayed onto the outside surface of a steel ring which is then welded to a journal.

    摘要: A new and improved tungsten carbide insert for rock bits is disclosed, in which the inserts are subject to extended vibratory tumbling in order to increase their fracture toughness. More specifically the vibratory finishing or tumbling of the inserts has been increased from a typical time of 30-60 minutes to time periods of at least 90 minutes and preferably a minimum of 225 minutes. A marked improvement in toughness is obtained by this process because the size and distribution of surface flaws of the inserts were greatly reduced, and because the surface hardness of the inserts was increased, thereby resulting in an increase in the stress required to cause fracture, and a consequent increase in resistance to breakage.

    摘要: Tools, and particularly rock bit cutter cones, having "hard" cermet cutter inserts enveloped in an intermediate layer or coating of a suitable high melting metal, and embedded in a cast steel matrix are disclosed. The cermet inserts, which usually comprise tungsten carbide in a cobalt phase (WC-Co), are coated with a layer of a metal or metal alloy, preferably nickel, which does not substantially melt during the subsequent step of casting the steel matrix of the tool. An additional layer of copper is advantageously employed on the cermet insert beneath the layer of the high melting metal, such as nickel. The coated inserts are held in appropriate position in a suitable mold and the steel matrix of the tool is poured from molten metal. The coatings on the cermet inserts prevent thermal shock to the inserts, prevent deterioration of the cermet due to diffusion of carbon into the adjacent steel, and metallurgically bonding and embedding the inserts to the steel matrix.
