    摘要: A small borehole drilling tool, lowered into a large borehole tubular drilling bit, includes a drill shaft interconnected to the large borehole drilling bit through driving drums for common rotation therewith. The small borehole drilling tool further includes upwardly of the drill shaft a coaxial neck, and an annular seal interposed between the neck and the inner wall of the large borehole drilling bit to form a drilling fluid chamber which receives and retains drilling fluid which in turn produces a downward thrust force on the upper surface of the annular seal to force the small borehole drill shaft downwardly into the earth during rotation thereof.

    摘要: This invention relates to a method and apparatus for measuring in situ the earth stress at a preselected subterranean area. More particularly, the invention relates to a method and apparatus of measuring the earth stress at a preselected subterranean area including drilling a large diameter borehole in the earth''s surface to a point immediately above the preselected area, drilling a small diameter borehole from the bottom of the large diameter borehole into the preselected area, positioning into the small borehole an expandable sleeve having a plurality of strain rosettes thereon, injecting cement exteriorly of the expandable sleeve, applying hydraulic pressure to the interior of the expandable sleeve to expand the same against the wall of the small diameter hole whereby the strain rosettes are cemented to the earth''s structure forming the circumference of the small diameter borehole, and drilling the large diameter borehole into the preselected area with a tubular drill which axially receives the expandable sleeve and the portion of the earth''s structure immediately adjacent thereto, the distortion of the structure forming the wall of the small diameter borehole being reflected by the strain rosettes as the large diameter borehole is drilled.
