A novel split threaded ring bearing member (42) for rolling cutter drill bits with at least a portion of its threads (48) having a different pitch than its mating threads (40) is disclosed. The pitch difference is designed so that the threaded ring can be seated or otherwise located precisely with respect to the other bearing elements within the drill bit to effectively control the axial displacement of the rolling cutter (18) on the bearing spindle (16) within a given tolerance range. Upon assembly, the difference in thread pitch causes the opposite, opposing mating thread flanks to engage, effectively applying a tensile or compressive force to a portion of the threaded ring bearing member (42), which gradually increases as the assembly is tightened. The result is an improved rolling cutter drill bit with a threaded ring cutter bearing system with excellent resistance to back-off which will not allow significant radial movement between the engaged threads, even if some back-off of the threads occurs. |

157 | Directional multi-blade boring head | EP94250034.9 | 1994-02-15 | EP0626500A3 | 1995-06-28 | Deken, Arthur D.; Sewell, Cody L. |
Directional multi-blade boring heads (1000, 1050) are disclosed which have first and second blades (1030, 1032) which each define a deflecting surface (1036, 1038) for deflecting the boring head when the head is advanced without rotation. At least one intermediate blade (1034) extends between the deflecting surfaces in a three blade design. In a four blade design, a second intermediate blade (1042) extends on the side opposite the first intermediate blade (1034). The boring head is particularly effective in drilling a straight borehole through a variety of soil conditions when the boring head is simultaneously rotated and advanced along the direction of boring. |

158 | Two-cone bit with non-opposite cones | EP90630094.2 | 1990-04-26 | EP0395572A1 | 1990-10-31 | Pessier, Rudolf Carl Otto |
A two-cone earth boring bit having non-opposite cones that minimize the tendency for off-center rotation or rough running. The bit is composed of two cones, each having a cantilevered bearing shaft (19) with an axis extending inwardly and downwardly. A rotatable, generally conical cutter (21, 39) is mounted on each bearing shaft, each cutter having a conical gage surface to engage and define a borehole with a wall (29) of select gage diameter. The axis (37) of one cutter is skewed relative to the other (43) to cause the conical gage surface (35, 41) of the two cones to engage the wall of the hole at points (A, B) that are other than 180 degrees apart as compared to nonskewed cutters. These points are separated by a distance less than the selected gage diameter. A line between these points is separated from a line extending from one point through the rotatable axis (47) on the bit by a selected angle (α). The body of the bit and/or stabilizers are separated from the wall of the hole by a distance less than the selected gage diameter. A line between these points is separated from a line extending from one point through the rotatable axis on the bit by a selected angle. The body of the bit and/or stabilizers are separated from the wall of the borehole by a distance in a range from preferably one-fourth to one inch. |
