It can be seen from the above equation that csc a is a decreasing function and is
always greater than 1. Therefore, when the load P, inclination angle a and f are
determined, the stress at the edge of I À I
0 section decreases with the increase of a.
Point B and I À I
0 section edge points, under specific conditions who is the
dangerous point, should be determined according to the specific axial load value
and inclination a, and its change law can be obtained through the curve analysis.
When estimating the axial load and tangential load, the axial load P comes from
the impulse obtained when the piston impacts the drill bit. For convenience of
calculation, it is assumed that during the collision process, the drill bit is rigid body,
while the piston has elastic deformation and is completely elastic collision. The
piston length is L, the cross-sectional area is A, the mass is m, the elastic modulus is
E, and the initial impact velocity of the piston is v. From the piston just collided to
the velocity decreased to 0, the impact force increases linearly from 0 to Q. When
the velocity is 0, the piston has the maximum deformation DL, according to
Hooke’s law, there is
