    Abstract: A long lasting rotary drill bit for drilling a hole into variable hardness geological formations that has a self-actuating mechanism responsive to the hardness of the geological formation to minimize the time necessary to drill a borehole. A long lasting rotary drill bit for drilling a hole into variable hardness geological formations that has a mechanism controllable from the surface of the earth to change the mechanical configuration of the bit to minimize the time necessary to drill a borehole. A monolithic long lasting rotary drill bit for drilling a hole into a geological formation having hardened rods composed of hard material such as tungsten carbide that are cast into a relatively soft steel matrix material to make a rotary drill bit that compensates for wear on the bottom of the drill bit and that also compensates for lateral wear of the drill bit using passive, self-actuating mechanisms, triggered by bit wear to drill relatively constant diameter holes.

    Abstract: Cutting elements for incorporation in a drill bit are provided having a body having an end face interfacing with an ultra hard material cutting layer. A main depression having a nonplanar surface is formed on the substrate and extending to the peripheral edge of the substrate subjected to the highest impact loads during drilling. This edge is immediately below the edge of the cutting layer which makes direct contact with the earth formations during drilling. The main depression is formed by forming a plurality of secondary depressions or steps. A second main depression is formed by forming a plurality of secondary depressions or steps. The second main depression also extends to the peripheral edge of the substrate. An ultra hard material layer is bonded to the end face of the cutting element body over the main depressions.

    Abstract: A method for applying cutting elements to a tool for cutting or milling a metal item in a well is disclosed, along with the cutting element used in the method. The tool can include one or more blades extending outwardly or downwardly from the tool for cutting a metal item such as the wall of a casing string, or for removing a predetermined length of a casing string in a cutting action. The blade or blades have cutting elements positioned on the leading faces of the blades to engage the casing string or other metal item in the bore hole. Each cutting element is composed of a plurality of effective cutting faces. Each cutting face can have a substantially triangular shape, or a substantially square shape, or some other geometric shape. The cutting elements can be arranged in a random pattern. Each cutting element can be oriented in a random orientation relative to the blade. The cutting elements are shaped so that, regardless of the positioning or orientation of a given cutting element, it will continually present a sharp cutting edge to the metal object being cut. Each cutting face of each cutting element can also have one or more surface irregularities to cause the metal chips cut from the casings to break off at short lengths.

    Abstract: A drag type drilling bit having a plurality of radially disposed raised lands on the bit face is disclosed. A multiplicity of polycrystalline diamond compacts are strategically disposed on the raised lands. At least a pair of lands are joined at the outside periphery of the bit thereby closing the valley formed between the lands, thus forming a plenum for drilling fluid that exits the bit interior through ports or nozzles communicating therewith. Highly turbulent fluid confined in the plenum continually scrubs and scavenges the hole bottom while simultaneously and uniformly cooling and cleaning the PDC cutters during operation of the bit in a borehole.

    Abstract: An improved rotary drill bit comprised of two or more elongated generally cylindrical drill members, the lower ends of which form a cutting face. A plurality of vertically spaced rows of rotatable cutting members are positioned around and between the drill members and are journaled thereto whereby as the lowermost row of the rotatable cutting members and the lower ends of the drill members wear away, the next adjacent row of cutting members is exposed.
