Description

  The present invention provides a rotational force and a striking force by a double tube comprising an inner tube rod with a pilot bit attached to the tip and an outer tube rod with a ring bit rotatable around the axis at the tip. However, the present invention relates to a rotary percussion type double tube drilling tool for drilling, and more particularly to a bit structure of a rod tip portion using the pilot bit and the ring bit.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a rotary percussion method (hereinafter also referred to as a rotary impact method) that performs drilling while applying a rotational force and an impact force has been widely known as a ground drilling device for, for example, reinforcing a slope. This rotary percussion method has an advantage that drilling can be performed not only in the rock mass but also in the sand layer or the boulder layer because the rock is crushed by the impact force. The striking force imparting structure includes a top hammer method in which a drill head is provided with a hydraulic striking mechanism, and a down-the-hole hammer that imparts striking force by reciprocating a piston in a cylinder with compressed air at the tip of an inner tube rod. It is roughly divided into the down-the-hole method to be installed.

  On the other hand, the drilling method is roughly classified into a single tube drilling method and a double tube drilling method. The latter double-pipe drilling method is a method of drilling while protecting the hole wall with the outer tube rod in the case of a collapsible ground where there is a risk of collapse of the hole wall. With the tube rod inserted, drilling is performed while applying rotational force and striking force. After drilling is completed, the outer tube rod (including the ring bit) is often left behind, and the inner tube rod is pulled out and removed. To do. During the drilling, the slime passes between the outer tube rod and the inner tube rod and is discharged from the soil swivel to the outside.

  At present, various methods have been proposed for the double pipe drilling method, and a ring bit method is known as one of them. In this method, a ring bit that is rotatable around the axis is attached to the tip of the outer tube rod, and the rotational force and striking force applied to the pilot bit are transmitted to the ring bit to rotate the outer tube rod. The ground is drilled by rotating and striking the pilot bit and the ring bit while rotating the pilot bit (including the inner tube rod) and the ring bit without causing them to rotate.

  Examples of the prior art related to the ring bit method include those proposed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 below. In Patent Document 1 below, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, a ring bit 51 is attached to the tip of a cylindrical casing pipe 50 so as to be rotatable about the axis of the casing pipe 50, and the inside of the casing pipe 50. An inner bit 52 is inserted into the inner periphery of the ring bit 51 and attached to the ring bit 51 so as to be engageable around the axis at the tip of an inner rod that is inserted into and rotated about the axis. In the excavation tool, the casing pipe 50 and the ring bit 51 are fitted and inserted with their inner and outer peripheral surfaces facing each other, and the casing pipe 50 and the ring bit 51 facing each other have their respective axes around the axis. An annular groove 53 extending in the direction is formed. A bit structure in which the ring bit 51 is locked to the casing pipe 50 in the axial direction by inserting a locking member 54 that is elastically deformable in the radial direction with respect to the axial line in the annular hole is proposed. Has been.

  In the following Patent Document 2, a ring bit is attached to the tip of an embedding pipe so as to be relatively rotatable, and the ring bit is locked and integrated in the forward rotation direction and unlocked in the reverse direction. The bit is inserted into the pipe, the pilot bit and the ring bit are rotated synchronously and the pipe is propelled, and when the required depth is reached, the pilot bit is rotated backward to be separated from the ring bit so that the pilot bit is pulled out of the pipe. The proposed bit structure has been proposed.

  Furthermore, in Patent Document 3 below, a drill bit used in a drilling method for drilling with a double pipe of an inner pipe rod with a drill bit attached to the tip and an outer pipe rod as an embedded pipe, The drilling bit transmits the striking force, rotational force, and thrust from the drilling device via the inner tube rod, and the fluid supplied through the hollow portion of the inner tube rod is ejected, and the outer tube rod and the inner tube are ejected. The inner bit consists of an inner bit that pushes the excavation and outer pipe rod while taking the excavated soil between the rod, reversely feeding it and discharging it out of the drilling hole, and a lost bit for expanding that is discarded at the bottom of the drilling hole. There has been proposed a drill bit structure in which the lost bit and the lost bit are coupled by a relative rotation in one direction and are easily coupled by a relative rotation in the opposite direction.

JP 2001-140578 A JP 2009-68229 A JP 2003-166390 A

  In the double tube drilling method, when the outer tube rod is left in the ground, not only the outer tube (casing) but also the ring bit attached to the tip is left in the ground (so-called so-called). , Become a lost bit.) As the cutting bit of this ring bit, a cemented carbide tip made of cemented carbide is generally used and the price is also expensive. If the ring bit is left in all drilling holes, depending on the construction scale, several thousand to Tens of thousands, which would be a large amount of money that affects the construction budget.

  In this regard, in the case of the bit structure described in Patent Document 1, as shown in FIG. 10, since the carbide tips are arranged along three concentric circles on the tip surface of the ring bit 51, Carbide tips are required. Further, if the drilling share area by the pilot bit 52 is expanded and the drilling share area of the ring bit 51 is reduced, the number of carbide tips can be reduced. However, the pilot bit 52 is placed in the ring bit 51. In order to pass, the outer diameter of the tip of the pilot bit 52 must be within the minimum inner diameter (inner diameter not including the rotation engagement portion) of the ring bit 51, and the excavation share area of the ring bit 51 cannot be reduced. There have been problems such as a reduction in the weight of the ring bit and a reduction in the number of carbide tips arranged.

  Therefore, the main problem of the present invention is to reduce the ring bit weight and the number of carbide tips by increasing the drill bit sharing area by the pilot bit and conversely reducing the ring bit excavation ring area. The purpose is to reduce the cost of bits.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention according to claim 1 comprises an inner tube rod having a pilot bit attached to the tip, and an outer tube rod having a ring bit rotatable around the axis at the tip. In a state where the inner tube rod and the outer tube rod are combined, a double tube drilling tool having a striking force transmission portion and a rotational force transmission portion between the pilot bit and the ring bit,
A plurality of carbide tips arranged on the ring front end surface of the ring bit are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction, and a plurality of striking and rotational transmission engaging projections are arranged on the inner surface of the ring at intervals in the circumferential direction.

  Then, in combining the ring bit and the pilot bit, the front end convex portion of the pilot bit is passed through the concave portion between the striking and rotation transmitting engaging convex portions formed on the inner surface of the ring bit, and then the pilot bit By rotating the ring bit in a predetermined direction, the abutment portion for rotation transmission of the pilot bit comes into contact with the side surface of the engaging convex portion for striking and rotating the ring bit, and for striking and transmitting the rotation of the ring bit. The rotation transmission abutting portion of the ring bit comes into contact with the back surface of the engaging convex portion to be in a locked state (a drilling ready state).

  In other words, in the case of the conventional bit structure, the pilot bit tip outer diameter is limited to be within the minimum inner diameter of the ring bit (inner diameter not including the rotating engagement portion). However, in the case of the present invention, the tip convex portion of the pilot bit is passed through the concave portion between the striking and rotation transmitting engaging convex portions formed on the inner surface of the ring bit. Then, by adopting a structure in which the pilot bit is rotated in a predetermined direction to be in a locked state, the tip convex portion of the pilot bit is located on the front side of the engagement convex portion for striking the ring bit and the rotation transmission As a result, the excavation area by the pilot bit can be expanded to the outer periphery outside the minimum inner diameter of the ring bit. Therefore, by expanding the drilling share area by the pilot bit and reducing the ring drilling share area by that amount, it is possible to reduce the weight of the ring bit and the number of carbide tips, thereby reducing the cost of the ring bit. Can be reduced.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the ring bit, 3 to 5 cemented carbide tips arranged on the ring front end surface are arranged along a single concentric circle with respect to the axis. The described double tube drilling tool is provided.

The striking and rotational transmission engaging projections are accommodated. Accordingly, the locked state is firmly held, and when the drilling tool is pulled up in the locked state, the tip convex portion of the pilot bit comes into contact with the striking and rotating transmission engaging convex portion of the ring bit. The ring bit can be pulled up.

  As described in detail above, according to the present invention, the drill bit sharing area by the pilot bit is expanded, and conversely the ring bit excavation share area is reduced, thereby reducing the weight of the ring bit and the number of carbide tips arranged, It is possible to reduce the cost of the ring bit.
