Filed:

Dec 6, 1985

Appl. No.:

6/806253

Inventors:

Robert W. Simons - Pasadena TX
Danny E. Scott - Houston TX
John R. Poland - Houston TX

Assignee:

Hughes Tool Company-USA - Houston TX

International Classification:

C21D 922

US Classification:

76108A

Abstract:

A method of manufacturing an earth boring bit of the type having a bearing pin which extends from a head section of the drill bit for rotatably mounting a cutter. A container is provided having opposing end openings with sidewalls therebetween which define a container interior. The container is placed over a portion of the head section so that the pin extends within the interior of the container. A spring spacer is then installed within the interior of the container about at least a portion of the circumference of the bearing pin at at least one axial location. The container is then packed with a particulate treating medium, the container is covered, and the pin and container are placed into a furnace for a time and at a temperature sufficient to activate the treating medium.

Abstract:

A temperature sensing device (30) includes a temperature sensor (36) in a sensor position within a sensor receiving opening (42) in an elongated sheath (32). An elongated sensor positioning member (38) and a sensor securing arrangement (50) work in unison to releasably fix the temperature sensor (36) in the sensor position at a closed end of the elongated sheath (32). An attachment structure attaches the elongated sheath (32) to a structure (29) such that a closed end (46) of the sheath extends into a medium to be sensed. Preferably, the securing arrangement (50) includes a lug (54) extending from the elongated sheath (32) at an open end (44) of the sheath. An attachment piece (58), slidably attached to the elongated sensor positioning member (38) engages the lug (54) and a biasing spring (60) biases the elongated sensor positioning member (38) away an end of the sensor positioning member (38) opposite the end upon which the attachment piece (58) is mounted so as to force the temperature sensor (36) against the closed end (46) of the elongated sheath (32).
