Digging bit
A digging bit includes a reaming portion whose diameter is larger than a rear end portion of a bit body, and which is formed in a front end portion of the bit body rotated around an axis, a digging tip which is arranged in a front end portion of the reaming portion, a debris groove which extends in a direction of an axis, and which is formed in an outer peripheral portion of the reaming portion, and a communication groove which communicates with the debris groove, and which is formed from the outer peripheral portion to a rear end portion of the reaming portion.
1. A digging bit for forming a borehole in rocks, comprising:
a bit body having a reaming portion formed in a front end portion of the bit body, a diameter of the reaming portion is larger than that of a rear end portion of the bit body, the bit body being rotated around a rotational axis of the digging bit;
a digging tip which is arranged in a front end surface of the reaming portion;
a debris groove which is formed in a concave curved shape on an outer peripheral surface of the reaming portion, and which extends from the front surface of the reaming portion to a rear end surface thereof; and
a communication groove communicating with the debris groove, and is formed in a concaved curved shape from the outer peripheral surface of the reaming portion to the rear end surface thereof.
2. The digging bit according to claim 1 , wherein
the reaming portion includes intersecting ridgelines located between the rear end surface and the communication groove, one of the intersecting ridgelines is located on one of a plane parallel to the rotational axis and a plane including the rotational axis.
3. The digging bit according to claim 2 , wherein
a width of the communication groove is larger than a width of the debris groove in a circumferential direction of the digging bit.
4. The digging bit according to claim 3 , further comprising:
a plurality of the debris grooves formed on the outer peripheral surface of the reaming portion at intervals in the circumferential direction, and
a plurality of the communication grooves respectively communicates with the plurality of the debris grooves which are adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction.
5. The digging bit according to claim 4 , wherein
the communication groove is configured so that a groove depth thereof gradually becomes deeper from the rear end surface of the reaming portion toward the rear side in a rotating direction of the digging bit.
6. The digging bit according to claim 3 , wherein
the communication groove is configured so that a groove depth thereof gradually becomes deeper from the rear end surface of the reaming portion toward the rear side in a rotating direction of the digging bit.
7. The digging bit according to claim 2 , wherein
the communication groove is configured so that a groove depth thereof gradually becomes deeper from the rear end surface of the reaming portion toward the rear side in a rotating direction of the digging bit.
8. The digging bit according to claim 1 , wherein
the communication groove is configured so that a groove depth thereof gradually becomes deeper from the rear end surface of the reaming portion toward the rear side in a rotating direction of the digging bit.
9. The digging bit according to claim 1 , wherein
the communication groove extends in a direction tilting to the rotational axis.
10. The digging bit according to claim 9 , wherein
the communication groove tilts toward a front end side in a direction of the rotational axis so as to be oriented in the a rotating direction of the digging bit.
11. The digging bit according to claim 10 , wherein
a tilting angle formed by an intersecting ridgeline located between the communication groove and the outer peripheral surface of the reaming portion with respect to the rotational axis when the intersecting ridgeline is viewed from a radially outer peripheral side with respect to the rotational axis, is within a range of 25° to 70°.
12. The digging bit according to claim 9 , wherein
a tilting angle formed by an intersecting ridgeline located between the communication groove and the outer peripheral surface of the reaming portion with respect to the rotational axis when the intersecting ridgeline is viewed from a radially outer peripheral side with respect to the rotational axis, is within a range of 25° to 70°.
