| 175427000 | For a mine roof drill bit type | 7 |
| 20080302577 | Drill Bit - A drill bit having a body with a stationary cutter and a rotatable cutter such that in a first position the rotatable cutter does not radially extend beyond a periphery of the stationary cutter and in a second position the rotatable cutter radially extends beyond the periphery of the stationary cutter. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20100187019 | Roof drill bit, roof drill bit body and hard cutting insert for roof drill bit - A roof drill bit has an elongate roof drill bit body, which has a forward end and a rearward end. The roof drill bit body contains a slot at the forward end. The roof drill bit body contains a dust port wherein the dust port has a central longitudinal dust axis. The roof drill bit further has a hard insert received within the slot wherein the hard insert has a leading surface. The leading surface of the hard insert is rotationally forward of the central longitudinal dust axis of the dust port. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20140041947 | ROTATIONAL DRILL BITS AND DRILLING APPARATUSES INCLUDING THE SAME - A roof-bolt drill bit includes a bit body rotatable about a central axis and at least one cutting element coupled to the bit body. The bit body has a forward end, a rearward end axially opposite the forward end, and an internal passage defined within the bit body, with the internal passage extending from a rearward opening defined in the rearward end of the bit body through at least a portion of the bit body. The at least one cutting element includes a cutting face, a cutting edge adjacent the cutting face, and a back surface spaced away from the cutting face, the back surface being mounted to the bit body. An opening defined in the bit body is positioned adjacent to the back surface of the at least one cutting element. | 02-13-2014 |
| 20140318870 | ROTARY DRILL BIT WITH CUTTING INSERT FOR ENGAGING EARTH STRATA - A rotary drill bit for engaging an earth strata material includes a cutting insert attached to an axial forward end of an elongate drill bit body. The cutting insert includes an elongate insert body rotatable about a central axis with a pair of symmetrical halves symmetrical about the central axis, each symmetrical half comprising: a leading face; a top surface having a primary relief surface; a web thinning gash extending between the leading face and the primary relief surface, the web thinning gash having a debris evacuation portion centrally disposed adjacent the central axis and a distal transition portion disposed adjacent the debris evacuation portion; a first leading cutting edge at the intersection of the leading face and the primary relief surface; and a second leading cutting edge at the intersection of the web thinning gash and the primary relief surface of the top surface. | 10-30-2014 |
| 20140318871 | ROTARY DRILL BIT WITH CUTTING INSERT HAVING EDGE PREPARATION - A rotary drill bit for engaging an earth strata material includes an elongate drill bit body having an axial forward end and an axial rearward end, and a cutting insert attached to the axial forward end of the elongate drill bit body. The cutting insert has an elongate insert body rotatable about a central axis and includes a pair of symmetrical halves symmetrical about the central axis, each symmetrical half including a leading face, a top surface having a relief surface, a T-land surface extending between the leading face and the relief surface and a cutting edge formed at the intersection of the T-land surface and the relief surface. The cutting edge can have a negative axial rake angle. The relief surface can include a primary relief surface and a secondary relief surface. | 10-30-2014 |
| 20140318872 | TWO PRONG ROTARY DRILL BIT WITH CUTTING INSERT HAVING EDGE PREPARATION - A two-prong rotary drill bit for engaging an earth strata material includes a drill bit body having an axis of rotation, the drill bit body having a head portion at an axial forward end and a shank portion at an axial rearward end, the head portion having two mounting arms offset from the axis of rotation of the drill bit body. The two-prong rotary drill bit also includes a cutting insert attached to each mounting arm at the axial forward end of the drill bit body. Each cutting insert includes a leading face facing in the direction of rotation, a top surface having a relief surface, a T-land surface extending between the leading face and the relief surface of the top surface and a cutting edge formed at the intersection of the T-land surface and the relief surface of the top surface. | 10-30-2014 |
| 20140332284 | Rotational Drill Bits and Drilling Apparatuses Including the Same - A roof-bolt drill bit includes a bit body that is rotatable about a central axis, a coupling pocket defined in the bit body, and at least one cutting element mounted to the bit body. The at least one cutting element includes a cutting face, a cutting edge adjacent the cutting face, a back surface opposite the cutting face, and a side surface extending between the cutting edge and the back surface. The roof-bolt drill bit additionally includes a coupling attachment coupled to the bit body, the coupling attachment being positioned adjacent to a portion of the side surface of the cutting element that abuts a side surface of the coupling pocket. | 11-13-2014 |
