  • Patent number: 10392866
    Abstract: A subterranean support-bolt drill bit has a bit body rotatable about a central axis, the bit body having a forward end and a rearward end axially spaced away from the forward end. The support-bolt drill bit includes at least one bit cutting element coupled to the bit body, the at least one bit cutting element including a cutting edge. The support-bolt drill bit also includes a central pilot projecting from the bit body beyond the at least one bit cutting element in an axially forward direction, the central pilot including a pilot cutting edge.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9951564
    Abstract: A subterranean support-bolt drilling assembly has a drill bit rotatable about a central axis and including at least one cutting edge. The drilling assembly also includes a spacer coupled to a rearward end of the drill bit. A reamer member is coupled to a rearward end of the spacer, the reamer member having at least one cutting element, the at least one cutting element having a cutting edge that extends radially beyond an outer peripheral portion of the drill bit relative to the central axis. A subterranean support-bolt drill bit includes a bit body and at least one cutting element coupled to the bit body. The support-bolt drill bit has a central pilot extending from the bit body in an axially forward direction. The cutting edge of the at least one cutting element extends radially beyond the central pilot relative to a central axis of the drill bit.
