  • the present invention relates to drilling tools and assemblies for installing friction bolts and more particularly drill bits for drill tools and assemblies for installing friction bolts.
  • the present invention also relates to friction bolts and methods of drilling involving friction bolts.
  • Friction bolts are used to stabilise rooves and walls during underground mining and most often have a generally cylindrical body, a collar at the trailing end of the body and a tapered leading end portion of the body that assists in inserting the friction bolt into a bore hole.
  • Friction bolts often include a split down one side so that when they are driven into a slightly undersized hole in the rock strata, the rock bolt resiliently deforms to reduce the size of the split in the body. This resilient deformation exerts radial and frictional forces against the wall of the hole to retain the friction bolt within the hole and to reinforce the rock strata.
  • the collar enables a rock bearing plate to be fitted to the body directly above the collar such that the collar bears the rock bearing plate against the rock face of the mine to distribute axial loads carried by the friction bolt.
  • Friction bolts can be installed in a two step process where the first step involves drilling a hole with one drill tool and the second step involves inserting the friction bolt with another tool. This two step process, whilst allowing for the recovery of the entire drill string used to drill the hole, is time consuming and otherwise inefficient.
  • Another one step solution for installing friction bolts involves the use of a self drilling friction bolt with an integrally provided drill bit. Once the friction bolt is installed with these systems the drill bit is retrieved leaving the friction bolt and the integrally provided drill bit in the hole.

  • the channels 1 18a-1 18c are adapted to releasibly engage with the inside lip of the leading end of a friction bolt 22 in a manner that allows the friction bolt 22 and drill bit 1 10 to form an integral unit according to an embodiment of a fifth aspect of the present invention.
  • the cut outs 1 16a-1 16c are primarily to allow cuttings to be flushed away from the drilling face and escape past the face of the drill bit.
  • FIGS 6A-6D depict another example of a drive member in the form of a second drill bit 140 that forms part of drill bit assembly according to an embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention.
  • the second drill bit 140 is adapted to be threaded on a drill rod in a similar fashion to that illustrated in Figure 3A with respect to the first example of the second drill bit 42.
  • the second drill bit 140 is designed to be reusable and comprises a cutting section 142 at its leading end and a shank 144 at its following end that includes a threaded portion 146 (see Figures 6C and 6D) to engage with a drill rod such as that shown in Figure 3A.
  • the second drill bit 140 also includes a tapered shoulder 147 between the cutting section 142 and the shank 144.
  • the cutting section 142 also includes a shank 148 with a cross section shaped and adapted to form a frictional engagement with the socket 1 14 in the drill bit 1 10 and also includes a cutting part comprising cutting elements in the form of buttons 150 formed of tungsten carbide or some other suitable hard material.
  • the second drill bit 140 also includes conduits 152 delivering drilling fluid to the drill face during the drilling process, as required. The greatest outer width or diameter defined by the second drill bit 140 is such that the drill bit 140 is adapted to pass through the longitudinal axial passage in a friction bolt such as that depicted in Figure 2A.
  • FIGS 7A-7D illustrate the drill bits 1 10 and 140 together to demonstrate the nature of their inter-engagement during the drilling process.
