Abstract
A seismic tool assembly for effecting a drill hole and enlarging a lowermost end thereof whereby an anchor can be set more securely therein. A drill bit is inserted through an opening in a cap portion, which is mounted on a stabilizer mounted within at least a portion of the drill hole. The bit is then inserted through each of the cap portion and the stabilizer to attain a drilling position. The bit possesses extra cutting tips on an upper end thereof, with a view to widening the upper end of a drill hole so that a wider flange can be inserted therein, so as to further stabilize and support the stabilizer when limited tilting movement of the bit within the stabilizer is performed during the drilling process.
Description
- The present invention relates to a seismic tool assembly meant to be used for the later insertion and setting of anchors, such as drop-in and wedge type anchors into brittle materials such as concrete, stone, masonry and cementuous materials. More particularly, the present invention relates to a seismic tool assembly for effecting a drill hole and enlarging a lowermost end thereof to have a greater circumference than that of the remainder of the drill hole whereby an anchor can be set more securely therein.
- Anchors are conventionally used in construction to attach various components of a building construction to an overhead ceiling or other structure. Such components to be attached can relate to, for example, services that provide plumbing, electrical, drainage, sprinkler system piping and drop ceilings. From these anchors, which are usually of the wedge or drop-in type variety, all of the above services and ceilings are suspended or secured.
- Conventionally, in setting anchors in concrete to suspend an awning, for example, a hole is pre-drilled in the surface to which the anchor is to be applied, and then the anchor is inserted into the pre-drilled hole. However, when setting such anchors in concrete it is not uncommon for such anchors to weaken and loosen over time, particularly in situations where cracking or chipping of the concrete around the pre-drilled hole has occurred.
- Furthermore, studies have revealed that cracking can typically occur in the concrete element, and that such cracks can significantly impact the performance of anchors. Cracks can originate on a concrete beam or slab in a variety of ways, such as creep, temperature settlement of the support or foundation, thermal expansion and contraction stress overload, or from a natural disaster such as an earthquake or flood. In such situations, the situation can arise where, if one such concrete anchor fails and lets go, the remaining anchors, by virtue of the weight they additionally assume in light of such failure, can also similarly collapse and fail.
- It has been found that enlarging the lowermost (interior) portion of a drill hole can allow an anchor to be set more securely therein. It has further been found that providing a drill hole with an enlarged lower end having a greater circumference than that of the remainder of the drill hole can be advantageously provided by a drill bit having an enlarged cutting portion adjacent the tip, which is inserted into the drill hole, whereby the enlargement of the cutting portion is configured so that it can pass through the shaft of the pre-drilled hole to be enlarged.
- It would therefore be advantageous to have an improved seismic tool assembly meant to be used for the later insertion and setting of anchors into brittle materials such as concrete, stone, masonry and cementuous materials.
- It would be further advantageous to have an improved seismic tool assembly for use in a one step process for both creating a drill hole and, at the same time, enlarging a lowermost end of a drill hole, wherein the lowermost end of the drill hole can be further drilled and enlarged to have a greater circumference than that of the remainder of the drill hole, wherein an anchor can later be positioned and securely retained within the enlarged area.
- It would also be further advantageous to have an improved seismic tool assembly meant to be used for the later insertion and setting of anchors which utilizes a stabilizer having an opening corresponding with the drill hole for receiving an insertion of the bit body into the drill hole, so as to aid in accurately inserting the drill bit into the drill hole. It would also be still further advantageous to have a bit body which possesses extra cutting tips on an upper end thereof, with a view to widening the upper end of a drill hole so that a wider flange can be inserted therein, so as to further stabilize and support the stabilizer when limited tilting movement of the bit within the stabilizer is performed during the drilling process. To this end, the present invention effectively addresses this need.

FIG. 5 is a side view of a further embodiment of the bit body of the seismic drilling bit of the present invention. - The invention will be described for the purposes of illustration only in connection with certain embodiments; however, it is to be understood that other objects and advantages of the present invention will be made apparent by the following description of the drawings according to the present invention. While a preferred embodiment is disclosed, this is not intended to be limiting. Rather, the general principles set forth herein are considered to be merely illustrative of the scope of the present invention and it is to be further understood that numerous changes may be made without straying from the scope of the present invention.
- The present invention consists of an improved seismic tool assembly designed for effecting a drill hole and enlarging a lowermost end thereof to have a greater circumference than that of the remainder of the drill hole whereby an anchor can be set more securely therein.
- Referring to
FIG. 3 , there is shown a seismic tool assembly for use in the later insertion and setting of anchors shown generally at 1 in accordance with a first exemplary embodiment of the present invention. In a preferred embodiment, as hereinafter described, theseismic tool assembly 1 is to be rotatably mounted onto a drill by way of a drill spindle (not shown). It will be understood that there are numerous variations as to the types of attachments to a drill or otherwise that theseismic tool assembly 1 of the present invention could be mounted thereon, as would be readily apparent to one skilled in the art. - In a preferred embodiment, the
seismic tool assembly 1 is for use in the later insertion and setting of anchors into concrete, stone, masonry and cementuous materials (though it will be understood that other variations to this are possible) and comprises aseismic drilling bit 2, astabilizer 3, and acap portion 6, as hereinafter described. - Preferably, the
seismic drilling bit 2 will be made of a durable, machinable metal and is substantially cylindrical in shape. Theseismic drilling bit 2 is, preferably, of a one-piece construction that comprises anupper end 5 and alower end 9 which are integrally connected to one another. - With reference to
FIG. 1 , it can be seen that thebit body 11 of theseismic drilling bit 2 can effect the drilling of a drill hole, and has a first diameter (and cutting radius) sized to readily fit into a drill hole (not shown), and possesses, as most conventional drill bits do, at least one cutting edge and at least one groove extending in a helical fashion along a length of thebit body 11 of theseismic drilling bit 2. In a preferred embodiment, these extend along a substantial length of thebit body 11, or, alternatively, extend along at least half a length of thebit body 11. - The proximal
upper end 5 of theseismic drilling bit 2 is constructed and arranged to be releasably secured to a drill by way of a drill spindle (not shown). - The
lower end 9 of theseismic drilling bit 2 has aquad cutting portion 13 positioned at the lowermost end of theseismic drilling bit 2, as seen inFIGS. 1 and 2 , thequad cutting portion 13 having a greater outermost width than that of thebit body 11 whereby, when theseismic drilling bit 2 is inserted fully into anlowermost end 43 of thedrill hole 45 and rotated during the drilling process (as shown inFIG. 4 ), so as to effect a conical shape in thedrill hole 45, thequad cutting portion 13 enlarge a circumference of thedrill hole 45 at thelowermost end 43 thereof that is greater than the circumference of the remainder of the shaft of the drill hole. - With reference to
FIG. 1 , theseismic drilling bit 2 also has at least one, and preferably two, additionalcarbide cutting tips 21 on approximately a middle portion of theseismic drilling bit 2, just below theflange portion 17 of the stabilizer 3 (as hereinafter described), when theseismic tool assembly 1 is fully assembled, as seen inFIGS. 3 and 4 . By virtue of theseismic drilling bit 2 having additionalcarbide cutting tips 21, it provides theseismic tool assembly 1 with a second cutting step to widen an upper end of the pre drilledborehole 45, so that a wider flange portion can be inserted into the pre drilledborehole 45. As seen inFIG. 4 , this provides for wider rotation of theseismic drilling bit 2 inside theflange portion 17 of thestabilizer 3, and further stabilizes and supports thestabilizer 3 when limited controlled tilting movement of thebit 2 within thestabilizer 3 is performed during the drilling process, with a view to enlarging alowermost end 43 of thedrill hole 45 to receive an anchor. - The
seismic tool assembly 1 further comprises, with reference toFIGS. 2 to 4 , astabilizer 3 for receiving, and having mounted thereon, thecap portion 6. Thestabilizer 3 comprises aflange portion 17 constructed and arranged to extend into thedrill hole 45 and abut an inside portion thereof. In an alternative embodiment (not shown), theflange portion 17 of thestabilizer 3 could be tapered at a distal end thereof so as to further aid in the accurate and gradual insertion of theseismic drilling bit 2 into thedrill hole 45. In a preferred embodiment, and with reference toFIG. 2 , side portions of theflange portion 17 have anelongated opening 19 defined along a length thereof, for allowing easier passage of the cutting portion of thecarbide cutting tips 21 when thecutting tips 21 are inserted through thestabilizer 3. - With reference to
FIGS. 2 to 4 , thestabilizer 3 further comprises anupper portion 23 and asupport portion 25 integrally connected to theflange portion 17. It can be seen inFIG. 2 that the outermost diameter of thesupport portion 25 is greater than an outermost diameter of theupper portion 23. Further, thestabilizer 3 also comprises, with reference toFIG. 4 , a recessedshoulder portion 27 on an interior thereof for restricting downward movement of theseismic drilling bit 2 within thestabilizer 3 to a pre-set depth, through virtue of anabutment portion 29 of the seismic drilling bit 2 (seeFIG. 1 ) only being able to be pushed downwardly within thestabilizer 3 to a certain point, at which it comes into contact with the recessedshoulder portion 27, thus restricting further downward movement of theseismic drilling bit 2. - Further, with reference to
FIG. 4 , thesupport portion 25 of thestabilizer 3 will further comprise a recessedportion 26. In essence, a bottom 28 of thesupport portion 25 will be in contact with an upper surface of the surface to be drilled, as shown inFIG. 4 . However, at the outermost end ofsupport portion 25, there is a recessedportion 26 on an underside thereof, which provides a gap between thesupport portion 25 and the surface to be drilled. In this manner, once the drilling process is completed, a screwdriver, lever or lifting tool or apparatus, for example, can be used to remove thestabilizer 3, and its associatedflange 17, from thepredrilled hole 45, by inserting the screwdriver or level tool under the recessedportion 26 to enable lifting of thestabilizer 3 from its locked inserted position in thehole 45. - Preferably, the
stabilizer 3 has a central opening (not shown) which corresponds with the opening of thedrill hole 45. In an alternative embodiment (not shown), the central opening on thestabilizer 3 can have a shape which corresponds substantially to a shape of the cuttingtips 21 for receiving, and allowing therethrough, the insertion of theseismic drilling bit 2. - The
seismic tool assembly 1 further comprises, with reference toFIG. 2 ,cap portion 6, which also possesses an opening defined therethrough (not shown) for receiving an insertion of theseismic drilling bit 2, which corresponds with the central opening of thestabilizer 3. In this manner, once thecap portion 6 is secured to thestabilizer 3 by virtue of locking means 15 (shown inFIG. 2 ), as hereinafter described, these hold theseismic drilling bit 2 firmly in place within the assembly. When disengagement of thestabilizer 3 andcap portion 6 is desired, the locking means 15 can be depressed so as to permit the disengagement of thestabilizer 3 andcap portion 6 from each other. - With reference to
FIG. 2 , as noted above, the seismic assembly of the present invention further comprises locking means 15, which are positioned substantially upon thecap portion 6 for selectively preventing disassembly of theseismic drilling bit 2 from thecap portion 6 and thestabilizer 3. In a preferred embodiment, the locking means 15 are spring loaded and positioned on each side of thecap portion 6 so that, when depressed simultaneously, they are movable to permit placement of thecap portion 6 on thestabilizer 3. Once depression of the locking means 15 ceases, the locking means thus engage an outer surface of theupper portion 23 of thestabilizer 3, restricting disengagement of thecap portion 6 from theupper portion 23 of thestabilizer 3. - In operation, and as seen in
FIG. 2 , thecap portion 6 is mounted upon thestabilizer 3, and theseismic drilling bit 2 is inserted through the openings in thecap portion 6 and thestabilizer 3. In mounting thecap portion 6 on thestabilizer 3, a lowermost end of thecap portion 6 comes into contact an rests upon thesupport portion 25 of thestabilizer 3, and, by virtue of thecap portion 6 having a slightly larger circumference than that of theupper portion 23 of thestabilizer 3, thecap portion 6 completely surrounds and covers theupper portion 23. - Of course,
seismic drilling bit 2 is to be rotatably mounted onto a drill (not shown), and the assembly is positioned over a surface where a drill hole is to be made. Once theseismic drilling bit 2 is sunk to a pre-set depth and rotated, rotational drilling (and tilted rotational drilling as previously described) by theseismic drilling bit 2 can then be effected in creating an enlarged area of the lowermost end of a drill hole. - Of course, by virtue of the
quad cutting portion 13 having a greater outermost width (and operational cutting radius) than that of thebit body 11 thequad cutting portion 13, when theseismic drilling bit 2 is rotated, enlarges a circumference of thedrill hole 45 at the lowermost end 43 (in creating the enlarged area). In this manner, once the enlarged area has been created, and theseismic drilling bit 2 removed from the drill hole, the anchor (not shown) can be inserted, and, when the anchors have been flanged outwardly by conventional means within the drill hole, the flange portions of the anchor can rest within the enlarged area, thus securely retaining the anchor in place. -
FIG. 5 also illustrates a further embodiment of the bit body of the seismic drilling bit of the present invention, which can generally be used for very shallow depth drilling utilizing small drop-in anchors, such as for mechanical use concerning sprinkler systems, plumbing, Natural Gas & water piping equipment (such as above ceiling ac units). Again, the proximalupper end 5 of theseismic drilling bit 2 is constructed and arranged to be releasably secured to a drill by way of a drill spindle (not shown). Theseismic drilling bit 2 possesses a round none fluted body 10 with a singlecarbide cutting tip 21, as, in utilizing this arrangement, it does not lift the dust from drilling, in contrast to how a fluted body drill bit would operate. Theseismic drilling bit 2 for shallow drilling has a quadcutting drilling head 13 but can, alternatively, also have a single cutting tip. - It will be apparent to those skilled in this art that various modifications and variations may be made to the embodiments disclosed herein, consistent with the present invention, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
- Other embodiments consistent with the present invention will become apparent from consideration of the specification and the practice of the invention disclosed therein.
- Accordingly, the specification and the embodiments are to be considered exemplary only, with a true scope and spirit of the invention being disclosed by the following claims.
