One of k l designates a drill bit constructed in accordthe watercourses is also connected with the coneance with the present invention and particularly shaped'rccess It by a groove Ii which provides designed for drilling hard earth formations such an auxiliary course so as to flush the cuttings as chert andthe like. The bit includes a sabtherefrom. stantially cylindrical 1 formed of suitable The V v cutters are formed along the trailmaterial to withstand drilling and is ing edges. of the watercourses and are 01' a suitshaped to provide a slightly'coned end race! rounding as at 4 into a cylindrical side face I. men lormedontheupperendofthebodyisanex-u tingpoints aorientedata-desiiedangleinthe the cutting points of the cutting -of cuttingstepeasbest the cutting elementsin an .each element in face of the formation cut by the cutting elements another and so z. direction of and arranged so that elements in the forward rows are offset slightly from the cutting edges of the succeeding rows to provide a series shown in Fig. 4.
The matrix material I! between each row of cutting elements is sloped upwardly to provide a slight clearance "to avoid heating while the bit. is cutting and to prevent when the drill bit is used in cutting chert' and similar formations, The stepped formation of the rows of cutting elements as shown in Fig. 4 limits the amount of out that can be made by each row oi cutting elements and also provides for better support ofthe elements. This clear ance space connects with water grooves 26 which in turn connect with the watercourses on the respective sides of the cutting ridges of the bit bit rotation so that the cuttings removed by each individual cutting element areueadily cleared and washed to the top of the well.
The face portions ofthe bit on the retractive sides of the cutting ridges are inclined to provide clearance and facilitate removal of the cuttings produced by the hit. As shown in Fig. 3, the cutting ridges have their with diameter of the bit while their trailing edges are substantially paralleland extend substantially tangential with a circle of rotation formed at the center of the bit. The center of the bit surrounding the cone is also oriented with rows elements reduce a stone polishing" Patent is:

The rows are arranged e'ccentrlcally with the rotational axis of the bit and the diamonds in one circular-row are onset in the for ward direction relative to the direction of rotation substantially one-half a position relative to adjoining row so that one row cuts only one-half the previously dein a preceding row. This arrangement is preferably maintained throughout the ,cutting surface of the bit: Oil-center is achieved by usin a succession of larger'stones in the inner row sufficient to get a position between the cutting elements of the next row.

When the bit is in operation, a drilling fluid is circulated through the bore taneously with rotation thereof and jets of drilling fluid are discharged through the ports ll and extensions l'l thereof into the watercourses to wash the cuttings of the bore hole. As the bit is rotated the cutters. are caused to gyrate with respect to the axis of rotation so bit; The bit in operation forms a hole bottom having upwardly sloping portions as shown in Fig. 6 and a central con -like tip is formed'witnin the cone-like recess it of the bit; which tip is being constantly chipped away by re'ason of ec centric mounting elements in the offset side thereof. are flushed from the cone-like recess into the.
