Abstract
The Post Drill System is a tool for drilling holes in rock for the purpose of blasting or installing ground support bolts in underground operations, it is known to have a rail which has affixed to its one end a pneumatic cylinder and on its other end a rubber bumper extending from it. In this invention handles are attached to either side of the rail one of which has attached to it and forming part of it a pneumatic control valve thus allowing the operator to hold the rail on the desired hole angle and by extending the affixed cylinder by means of the control valve is able to extend the rail until the rubber bumper makes solid contract with the rock face to be drilled thus allowing the rail to stand freely. In this invention a pneumatic drill is mounted upon the rail and relies upon an air feed motor and chain to cause it to travel the length of the rail. This action along with the operation of the pneumatic drill is controlled by an air-remote control console which allows for the operator to stand at a safe distance while performing the necessary operations. In this invention an adaptor may be placed on the pneumatic drill allowing the operator to place a ground supporting bolt upon it and cause it to be driven into the hole by means of the pneumatic drill while controlling the operation by means of the remote control console.
Description
Description:
Disposed is the Post Drill System which is a method and apparatus for drilling holes in the ceiling of a mine for anchor bolts and for other uses. The Post Drill System is constructed from aluminum and other materials.
Attached to this description is a diagram showing a front view of the Post Drill System and a side view of the Post Drill System. In the diagram, (1) is a rubber bumper, (2) is the telescopic stinger, (3) is the pneumatic steel centralizer, (4) is the feed chain, (5) is the drill steel, (6) is the feed motor, (7) is the drill remote control, (8) is the feed extension control valve, (9) is steel centralizer trip valve, (10) is the handle, (11) is the pneumatic percussion drill, (12) is the pneumatic extension cylinder, (13) is the slide rail casing and (14) is the air supply outlet.
The Post Drill system is a pneumatic percussion drill (11) mounted on the slide rail casing (13).
The pneumatic percussion drill (11) spins and hammers the drill steel (5) to drill a hole in the ceiling of the mine while at the same time ejecting water into the drilled hole through the drill steel (5) to flush debris out of the hole. The slide rail casing (13) has mounted to it pneumatic extension cylinder (12) with an air supply outlet (14) attached to it so that air can be supplied to the pneumatic extension cylinder (12) to extend the cylinder. The slide rail casing (13) has a rubber bumper (1) and telescopic stinger (2) attached on one end and a pneumatic extension cylinder (12) on the other end. The driller holds the handle (10) and erects the Post Drill System vertically in the mine with the rubber bumper (1) towards the ceiling of the mine and the feed extension cylinder (12) towards the floor of the mine. The Driller then lines up the rubber bumper (1) with the location on the ceiling of the mine where the hole is to drilled and by use of the feed extension control valve (8) causes air to enter the pneumatic extension cylinder (12) thus extending the pneumatic extension cylinder (12) and slide rail casing (13) until the rubber bumper (1) makes contact with the ceiling of the mine. The pressure exerted by the extending of the pneumatic extension cylinder (12) causes the telescopic stinger (2) to compact under force within the slide rail casing (13). The air pressure exerted on the pneumatic extension cylinder (12) causes the Post Drill System to be securely held in a vertical position with the rubber bumper (1) contacting the ceiling of the mine and the pneumatic extension cylinder (12) contacting the floor of the mine. The pneumatic percussion drill (11) is now in a secure vertical position with the pneumatic percussion drill (11) and drill steel (5) pointing upwards towards the ceiling of the mine. The Driller now steps away from the Post Drill System and by using the remote control (7) is able to activate the pneumatic percussion drill (11) to cause it to spin, hammer and inject water.
The Driller also uses the remote control (7) to operate the pneumatic feed motor (6) which is attached to the feed chain (4) to cause the feed chain (4) to move upward causing the pneumatic percussion drill (11), to which the feed chain (4) is also attached, to move upward to drill a six foot, or longer, hole in the ceiling of the mine. The Driller can also use the remote control (7) to cause the feed motor (6) to reverse its direction of operation and lower the pneumatic percussion drill (11) which is attached to the feed chain (4), thus withdrawing the pneumatic percussion drill (11) from the hole that has been drilled in the ceiling of the mine. The pneumatic steel centralizer (3) is controlled by the steel centralizer trip valve (9) and is used to guide the drill steel (5).
When the drilling is complete, the Driller removes the drill steel (5) from the drilled hole, removes the drill steel (5) from the pneumatic percussion drill (11) and replaces it with an adapter on the pneumatic percussion drill (11), such adapter which holds an anchor bolt which can then be hammered into the hole which was previously drilled by the Post Drill System.
