Abstract
According to the invention, a drill rod comprising an inner channel is drilled into the rock. A free-flowing, self-hardening mass is pressed through the inner channel of the drill rod, filling the drilled hole, so that it hardens with the drill rod remaining in the drilled hole. The hardening mass is a mixture of a hardenable plastic and a hardening plastic. Said plastics are supplied to the inner channel of the drill rod over a pre-determined transport time F which corresponds to the hardening time. The hardening time is defined by the selection of the plastics and the mixing ratio thereof such that the transport time essentially corresponds to the hardening time and leads essentially to the flow path of the hardened mixture being completely filled between the mixing point and the output of the drilled hole.
Description
. .
Method for embedding rock anchors The invention relates to a method for embedding rock anchors.
Such method is known from DE 102 34 255 Al. In this method a drilling/injection anchor, in the form of a drill rod having a central internal passage, is driven into the rock to be consolidated. Flushing with liquid is simultaneously carried out, whereby the drilled hole is widened. Upon attainment of a predetermined drilling depth injection of a viscous cement mixture takes place through the internal passage of the drill rod, which cement mixture fills the drilled hole and hardens to form a concrete core in which the drill rod remains.
This method is intended in particular for soft and sandy rock. In harder rock, as is encountered in particular during headway timbering in underground mining or when tunnelling, curable plastics materials are primarily used instead of concrete. These curable plastics materials are introduced into the drilled hole through a lance after the hole has been drilled and the drill rod withdrawn; the lance is then immediately withdrawn from the hole and a rock anchor driven into the drilled hole, which rock anchor is then bonded by the curable plastics material to the surrounding rock in a secure and load-carrying manner.
It is the object of the invention to provide a method whereby, in a continuous work process, an anchor rod, which may also be the drill rod, is embedded as a rock anchor by filling the drilled hole with a curable plastics material, it being ensured, firstly, that the drilled hole is filled with the plastics material over its entire length and, secondly, that despite the usual overhead working no significant quantities of plastics material escape from the drilled hole.

A method for embedding rock anchors, whereby an anchor rod having an internal passage is inserted in a drilled hole, through which internal passage a . .
free-flowing, self-curing composition is forced, comprising filling the finished drilled hole with the composition such that the composition cures in the drilled hole with the anchor rod remaining in the drilled hole, wherein the method comprises the steps of:
= drilling the drilled hole with a drill rod and a drill chuck retaining the drill rod wherein the drill rod does not contain a hardenable plastics material;
= making the curable composition from a mixture of a hardenable plastics material and a hardening plastics material;
= feeding plastic materials comprising the hardenable plastics material and the hardening plastics material in a mixed state to the internai passage of the drill rod for = a predetermined feed time F;
= selecting the plastics materials and bringing the plastic materials together, at a mixing point located in the internai passage, and mixing the plastic materials to form the mixture in such a mixing ratio as to yield a defined curing time H, wherein the feed time F and the curing time H are coordinated to one another such that the feed time substantially corresponds to the curing time and leads to substantially complete filling with the curable composition of the flow path between the mixing point and the outlet of the drilled hole.
= In this solution, account is taken of the fact that curable plastics materials yield in a short curing time significantly greater hardness or viscosity than a cement injection. On the other hand, it is avoided that the curable plastics material causes contamination of the drilling machine or the environment, or that relatively large quantities of the plastics material are expended in an uneconomic manner.

On the other hand, it is avoided that the curable plastics material causes contamination of the drilling machine or the environment, or that relatively large quantities of the plastics material are expended in an uneconomic manner.
. .
To produce such hardening, a radical polymerisation of curable components such as unsaturated polyester resins, vinyl esters, epoxy acrylates and silicate resins is used ¨ for example, by admixing peroxides in a volume ratio of 1:1 to 10:1.
Suitable curable and hardening plastics are described, for example, in DE 103 15 610 B4, DE 101 24 466 Cl and DE 102 18 718 C1. A major advantage of the invention is that it permits substantially automatic filling of the drilled hole, the latter being filled substantially completely from the tip of the drill rod or rock anchor to the mouth of the drilled hole, and the drill rod or rock anchor being completely encased with the hardened plastics material. An essential safety requirement of mining and tunnelling is thereby fulfilled.
One of the essential criteria of the invention is that the feed time F and the curing time H are coordinated with one another. The curing time H of the plastics material is determined by the selection of the hardenable plastics material and of the hardening plastics material and optionally of further components, and by the mixing ratio of the components, but also by the temperature of the environment, of the quantitatively major components and of the rock.
The feed time F is defined as the time required for complete filling of the flow path of the curable mixture. That is to say that the hardening of the curable plastics material takes place only after mixing of the hardenable and hardening plastics. The flow path is therefore the distance between the mixing point and the mouth (outlet) of the drilled hole. If the mixing of the two components is effected by a static mixer, the mixing point is located at this static mixer. In that case the flow path includes the further internal passage as far as its outlet to the external circumference of the drill, and therefore, generally, as far as the drill tip. The flow path further includes the drilled hole surrounding the anchor rod. The feed time is therefore so calculated that, while taking account of the characteristic curve of the feed rate of the pumps, . .

in particular the pressure-dependence of said characteristic curve, it is sufficient for the volume of the internal passage and the volume of the drilled hole surrounding the anchor rod to be filled.
The invention may be implemented by first drilling a hole with a conventional drill rod and then immediately withdrawing the drill rod from the hole and inserting instead a tubular anchor rod (= rock anchor) having an internal passage. In addition to the other advantages, this method has the advantage that the drill tip to be used for hard rock, which is expensive, can be used multiple times. However, it is also possible to drill the hole with a drill rod equipped with an internal passage, which is configured at the same time as a suitable anchor rod. This drill rod remains in the drilled hole and is used after drilling as a rock anchor according to the invention. The disadvantage of single use is compensated by the operational advantage that time-consuming work steps are dispensed with.
In the context of this application the use of the drill rod as a rock anchor is described in particular; however, the invention also applies to a method whereby, as described, a subsequently inserted anchor rod having an internal passage is used instead of the drill rod, the method being usable identically in both cases.
It is ensured according to the step of flushing the internal passage and the drilled hole with air during and/or after the drilling, and in any case prior to the introduction of the curable mixture that the curable mixture does not form any cavities in the drilled hole and comes into intimate contact with the wall of the drill rod and the wall of the drilled hole. This measure can be used additionally to the flushing of the drilled hole with water usual in the drilling operation, and has the advantage that water residues are blown out of the drilled hole and dried.

. .
It should be pointed out that the drill rod may be provided at its tip with a bore-crown, the cutting teeth of which describe a drilled hole diameter which is greater than the external diameter of the drill rod.
The curing of the hardenable plastics component involves an increase in viscosity above the viscous and pasty range. A viscosity of the hardenable component of at least 100 000 Pa x sec is aimed at, so that the bond between the plastics composition and the drilled hole and the drill rod is so secure that the drill rod cannot be pulled from the drilled hole or rotated therein under the usual operating loads associated with the drilling operation and the injection of the plastics composition. This makes it possible to detach the drill chuck, in which the drill rod is clamped for the purpose of drilling, and/or the injection head (adapter for connecting the plastics feed pipes to the internal passage of the anchor rod/drill rod), from the drill rod without the aid of a holding device or gripping wrench for retaining the drill rod ¨ for example, by rotating the drill chuck in the reverse direction. These advantages are obtained by the preferred features of the invention that the viscosity of the curable mixture in the curing time is at least 100 000 Pa x sec and that the curable mixture hardens sufficiently during the curing time that the torque of the drill rod in the drilled hole is greater than the torque required to detach the drill rod from the drill chuck retaining same.
In an advantageous development comprising including in the step of making the curable composition the step of admixing a substance or synthetic material which causes pre-crosslinking of the components, with an increase in viscosity to more than 500 Pa X sec, within the curing time, to the curable mixture or to one of its components; and wherein the plastics materials comprises the substance or synthetic material which causes pre-crosslinking of the components, it is provided that the plastics materials, after being brought together and mixed, become crosslinked in a very rapid chemical reaction to form what is here called a pasty mass. This is brought about by admixing suitable substances, such as amines. With the method preferred step of blocking the inlet of the internal passage of the drill rod by a non-return valve which is open in the filling direction handling is simplified and operating safety increased in that, after the components have been brought together and mixed and before the start of the chemical reaction leading to hardening, an increased viscosity (greater than 500 Pa x sec, preferably greater than 1000 Pa x sec) is attained. This pre-reaction is brought about by admixing to one of the components small quantities of substances having suitable thixotropic properties, for example, from the group of amines.
Through this initially slight but very rapid increase in viscosity before the start of the curing finally intended (thixotropic effect), it is achieved that the curable mixture of plastics materials does not flow out of the drilled hole, thus failing to permit the pressure increase which is required to fill the entire drilled hole and all the cavities completely and without gaps.
The preferred step of blocking the inlet of the internal passage of the drill rod by a non-return valve which is open in the filling direction serves to shorten the duration of the drilling and injection process. This prevents plastics composition not yet completely cured from running, dripping or flowing from the internal passage of the drill rod after its detachment from the drill chuck or after detachment of the plastics feed conduit. In calculating the feed time and coordinating same with the curing time, the characteristic curve of the feed rate of the pumps by which the hardenable component and the hardening component are fed to the internal passage of the drill rod must be taken into consideration.
Ideally, pumps having a delivery rate per time unit, which is not dependent on counterpressure, are sought. For this reason piston pumps, in particular radial piston pumps, are especially suitable. These are especially advantageous because a temperature increase of the plastics materials, which could cause a change in the characteristic curve of curing and in particular a shortening of the curing time, is avoided.

These are especially advantageous because a temperature increase of the plastics materials, which could cause a change in the characteristic curve of curing and in particular a shortening of the curing time, is avoided.
To prevent liquid shocks and the consequent bursting of conduits, it is/should be provided in the development of the method that the pumps can start with a delay. A reduction in pump speed to avoid pressure spikes is also advantageous shortly before the end of the feed time.
Alternatively, pumps having a pressure-dependent characteristic curve of feed rate may be used to convey the hardenable plastics material and/or the hardening plastics material. Such pumps ¨ for example, gear pumps ¨ have the advantage of simple construction. Moreover, the pressure-dependent characteristic curve of pump feed rate has the advantage that pressure spikes are avoided. On the other hand, in the event of internal run-back of surplus feed quantities, pressure-dependence causes heating; the characteristic curve of curing, and in particular the curing time, must therefore be suitably adapted.
In the preferred feature that the feed time for the filling volume V to be filled downstream of the mixing point conforms to the equation (taking account of the characteristic curve of the feed rate of the hardenable and hardening plastics materials):
V=Kx f (qA + qH)dt (I), where V = filling volume of internal passage downstream of mixing point plus filling volume of drilled hole qA = feed quantity per time unit of hardenable plastics material qH = feed quantity per time unit of hardening plastics material dt = time increment H = curing time K = constant taking account of location-independent factors, in particular temperature and constitution of rock, the feed of hardenable and/or hardening plastics material is switched off if the feed pressure exceeds a predefined limit value. In this case, however, a run-down programme of the drive motors of the pumps may be switched on, whereby the speed of the pump is reduced to zero continuously or in steps.
Damage to the feed system and possible contamination by one of the plastics components are thereby avoided.
However, if in this case the pressure rise can be traced to curing of the plastics material before complete filling of the drilled hole, a new drilling must be carried out and in some cases the drill rod may be lost. However, in this case incorrect coordination of filling time and curing time has occurred. If filling time and curing time are precisely coordinated, the pressure-dependent switch-off occurs as precisely as possible at or shortly before the time when the plastics material emerges from the mouth of the drilled hole.
It is also possible, however, to predefine the feed time F manually or by an adjustable clock. The aim is to achieve a curing time, and therefore a filling time, of less than one minute.
The coordination of filling time and curing time may be carried out by tests, although the characteristic curve of the pump feed rate and the filling volume V of the internal passage and of the drilled holes surrounding the drill rod should be taken at least roughly into account. The algorithm to be applied in coordinating filling time and curing time is defined by equation (I) above.
In fully exploiting the advantage of the invention, namely the rapid and secure embedding of a rock anchor in a drilled hole, the development of the method according to the preferred feature that the feeding step comprises feeding the plastics through an injection head:

An embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to the drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 shows schematically a drill rod with drill chuck and feed adapters (injection head);
Figs. 1A and 3A show schematically a static mixer, mixer housing and non-return valve;
Fig. 2 is a feed rate graph;
Figs. 3 and 4 show schematically a drill rod with drill chuck and feed adapters (injection head); and Fiq. 4A shows schematically opposed half shells having recesses.
It is illustrated in the Figures that a drill rod remains in the hole that has been drilled therewith and is immediately retained and embedded in the drilled hole as an anchor rod/rock anchor. The drilling process is therefore also described in relation to the Figures. However, if the drill rod is withdrawn from the drilled hole after the production thereof, and is replaced by an anchor rod as the rock anchor, the production of the drilled hole no longer falls within the scope of this invention; otherwise, however, the whole of the exposition describing the inventive method for filling the internal passage of the anchor rod and the drilled hole with a hardening plastics mixture (curable mixture), is applicable.
The following description applies to all the Figures unless deviations are expressly pointed out in relation to individual Figures.

It is illustrated in the Figures that a drill rod remains in the hole that has been drilled therewith and is immediately retained and embedded in the drilled hole as an anchor rod/rock anchor. The drilling process is therefore also described in relation to the Figures. However, if the drill rod is withdrawn from the drilled hole after the production thereof, and is replaced by an anchor rod as the rock anchor, the production of the drilled hole no longer falls within the scope of this invention; otherwise, however, the whole of the exposition describing the inventive method for filling the internal passage of the anchor rod and the drilled hole with a hardening plastics mixture (curable mixture), is applicable.
The following description applies to all the Figures unless deviations are expressly pointed out in relation to individual Figures.
. .
The drill rod 1 having a bore-crown 2 is driven into a rock 19 of solid stone by the drill chuck 3. For this purpose the drill chuck 3 is driven in the feed direction 4 and in the rotational direction 5.
The drill rod consists of a plurality of parts, in this case two, which can be joined together to yield a predefined length by being screwed into a nut 6.
For this purpose the drill rods are provided on their external circumference with a screw thread which fits into a corresponding thread of the union nut 6. This thread also serves the purpose of enabling a good connection between the drill rod 1 and the plastics material to be injected into the drilled hole.
The bore-crown 2 is fitted with teeth 7. These teeth 7 define a drilled hole cross-section having a diameter D1. The diameter D1 is greater than the external diameter DA of the drill rod 1 and therefore also greater than the internal diameter of the thread D1. The volume of the drill rod can be calculated with sufficient accuracy from the mean diameter D2 = (DA + Di) /2. Passing through the centre of the drill rods 1, or of the partial sections of the drill rod, is an internal passage 8 which opens in the bore-crown 2 into a collecting chamber 9 and outlet passages 10. The internal passage can be supplied, through the drill chuck 3 via suitable adapters, first with water or air as flushing means and then, preferably also via the drill chuck but also via another suitable connecting piece which is illustrated, for example, in Fig. 4, with a hardenable plastics composition and a hardening plastics material.
Only the parts of the device intended to be supplied with plastics material are shown schematically here. These are the injection head/adapter 11, which can be placed on the end face of the connecting piece, here the drill chuck, and which includes internal passages 12 and 13. The internal passage 12 is connected via the hose 27 and the feed pump 14 to a reservoir 15 for a hardenable plastics composition. The internal passage 13 is significantly smaller in diameter than the internal passage 12; its cross-sectional area is . .

The internal passage 12 is connected via the hose 27 and the feed pump 14 to a reservoir 15 for a hardenable plastics composition. The internal passage 13 is significantly smaller in diameter than the internal passage 12; its cross-sectional area is . .
approximately 1/10 the cross-sectional area of the internal passage 12. The internal passage 13 is connected via the hose 25 and a feed pump 16 to a reservoir 17 for the hardening plastics composition. Because the hardenable plastics composition and the hardening plastics composition are mixed in a ratio of 10:1 or less (as low as 1:1; see above), the feed pump 16 is designed correspondingly smaller. The internal passages are brought together within the connecting piece/drill chuck 3 in a collecting chamber 18 which communicates directly with the internal passage 8 of the drill rod.
In Fig. 1 it is shown that the first segment of the drill rod includes a static mixer 20 at the inlet of its internal passage 8. Such a mixer may also be located at the beginning of each segment. If the static mixer is in the form of an insertable component, it is sufficient if such a static mixer 20 is inserted in the internal passage 8 of the last drill rod 1 to be installed. The detail illustration shows an insert component 21 in which a non-return valve/ball valve 22 is integrated, in addition to the static mixer 20. The insert component 21 may, for example, be screwed via a thread into the internal passage 8 of the last drill rod to be installed before drilling.
The method is operated as follows:
To drive the drill rod 1 into the rock, only one drill rod element is first placed in the drill chuck. The drill chuck is set in rotation in the direction 5. At the same time a feed force 4 (not represented) is exerted on the drill rod. A drilled hole having the diameter D1 of the bore-crown or of the cutting teeth 7 on the bore-crown is thereby produced. When the drilled hole has attained the length of the first segment of the drill rod, the union nut 6 is screwed on to the free end and a further segment of the drill rod 1 is screwed into the union nut 6, being fed (in a manner not shown) through the drill chuck from behind. As this happens the drilled hole may be flushed (in a manner not shown) with water which is supplied through the internal passage of the drill rod.

In Fig. 1 it is shown that the first segment of the drill rod includes a static mixer 20 at the inlet of its internal passage 8. Such a mixer may also be located at the beginning of each segment.

As this happens the drilled hole may be flushed (in a manner not shown) with water which is supplied through the internal passage of the drill rod.

When the intended depth of the drilled hole has been attained (e.g.
approximately 2 m to 2.50 m) the drilling process is ended. The collecting chamber 18 of the drilled hole is now charged with air (in a manner not shown) through the internal passage 8 of the drill rod, the drillings being thereby flushed from the drilled hole and the drilled hole being cleaned and dried.
The drilled hole is then charged with a hardenable plastics material which has been previously mixed with a hardening plastics material. The volume to be filled is, firstly, the internal passage 8 from the mixer onwards and, secondly, the drilled hole, i.e.:
Vges = Vi + VBohrloch - VBohrstange = pi/4 (LB x (D12 - D22) + L1 x Charging is effected by the pumps 14 and 16. These are, for example, radial piston pumps which can provide a pressure-independent feed quantity per time unit. However, they may also be gear pumps, since, given the high viscosities of the plastics materials to be conveyed, inadmissible losses are not to be expected, so that the delivery law can be determined with sufficient accuracy.
The feed rate is now so defined by suitable pre-setting and speeds of the drive motors 24 and 26 of the pumps that, taking account of the characteristic curve of pump feed rate and the delivery law, the quantity of hardenable plastics material and hardening plastics material to be charged is conveyed in precisely the feed time which corresponds to the curing time. The curing time of the plastics material can be determined, on the one hand, by the selection of the plastics components and, on the other, by the mixing ratio and the temperature. The temperature may be assumed to be, for example, 30 C. The hardness to be adopted by the plastics material in the curing time is determined by practical considerations. In particular, the plastics material should not emerge freely from the mouth of the drilled hole, but should appear . .

In particular, the plastics material should not emerge freely from the mouth of the drilled hole, but should appear . .
at the mouth of the drilled hole at most as a pasty mass. Moreover, it is advantageous for the speed of the whole drilling and charging operation if the plastics material at the mouth of the drilled hole has cured sufficiently for the drill chuck to be detached from the drill rod without the need to hold the drill rod with special auxiliary means, or to prevent it from falling out of the drilled hole. A viscosity of 100 000 Pa x sec may be sufficient, but preferably is exceeded. Through suitable admixtures, pre-crosslinking of the plastics mixture introduced may occur, with an increase in viscosity (see above: more than 500 Pa x sec), even before the curing reaction itself begins or takes effect.
It is desirable to detach the drill chuck as quickly as possible from the drill rod, at a time when the plastics mixture last introduced has not reached the end of its curing time. For this reason the non-return valve 22 is provided upstream of the static mixer, opening in the charging direction and preventing the plastics mixture introduced from flowing out of the internal passage in the opposite direction.
After detachment of the drill chuck from the drill rod, the connecting piece/drill chuck may be flushed with one of the plastics components or with water. The corresponding apparatus is not illustrated.
Fig. 2 shows schematically a feed rate graph of the plastics components conveyed, that is, in particular the hardenable plastics component and hardening plastics component and, optionally, the further admixed substances. The curve of the feed quantity per time unit over time is shown, and above it the corresponding pressure curve in the collecting chamber 18 or at another point. The feed rate depends, on the one hand, on the speed curve of the drive motors of the pumps. In addition, with some types of pump, account must be taken of the pressure-dependence of the feed rate. A
constant characteristic curve of feed rate, such as that of radial piston pumps, would be ideal. In any case, the aim is that the pumps start running with a progressive action, in order to avoid pressure shocks.
The method according to the invention can therefore also be carried out if the hardenable and hardening plastics materials are conveyed during the feed time F at a variable feed rate according to a predetermined curve of feed quantity per time unit, in particular with a delayed and increasing feed rate at the start of the feed time, or if the hardenable and hardening plastics materials are conveyed during the feed time F at a feed quantity per time unit which is pressure-dependent according to a predetermined law. In any case, the following applies:
If, after attainment of the maximum set speed, the feed quantity per time unit decreases as pressure increases which happens, firstly, because the flow path of the plastics mixture is lengthening and, secondly, because viscosity is increasing - the total feed time is so calculated that the charging quantity within this feed time (represented in the graph by the hatched area below the feed rate curve) corresponds, as described above, to the volume of the internal passage and the drilled hole, and that this feed time corresponds to the curing time. It is thereby achieved that the plastics mixture arriving at the mouth of the drilled hole has become sufficiently viscous to block said mouth and to encase the drill anchor so securely that it withstands the torque applied during detachment of the drill chuck, and that it does not fall out of the drilled hole through its own dead weight.
Given this precondition, it is possible to operate the control device 28 manually or by pre-setting an operating time for the pump motors. However, control may also be provided via the pressure sensor 23, by means of which the pumps are switched off or (as illustrated) a run-down switching occurs when the pressure upstream of the mixing device (for example, in the connecting chamber) exceeds a preset limit value G to be determined by experimentation.

Fig. 3 differs from the above in that:
Upon completion of the drilled hole, the drill chuck is removed. The connection of the anchor rod/drill rod 1 to the injection head/adapter 11 is effected by a connecting piece 3. The latter consists (as shown in the detail illustration of Fig. 4) of two half-shells 31, 32, each of which has a semicircular recess 33, 34 along its length. These recesses complement one another in the closed state of the half-shells in the direction of the arrows to form a circular-cylindrical internal passage having varying diameters. The diameters are so designed that in the closed state (as shown in Fig. 4) the internal passage fixes the connecting piece in a form-fitting manner to the injection head 11 on one side and to the anchor rod/drill rod 1 on the other. The injection head therefore has a widened portion 35 which fits into a correspondingly widened diameter of the internal passage 33, 34. To retain the anchor rod/drill rod 1, the internal passage has a coarse internal thread which corresponds to the external thread of the anchor rod/drill rod 1.
It is shown in Fig. 3 that the space 18 between the end of the injection head 11 and the end of the anchor rod/drill rod 1 is bridged and radially sealed by means of an annular seal 30. Here, too, the static mixer is located at the beginning of the anchor rod/drill rod 1.
In the embodiment according to Fig. 4, by contrast, the static mixer is located in the connecting piece 3 formed by the half-shells 31, 32. To achieve this, the mixing elements 20 are located here, too, in an insert component/mixer housing 21 configured as a circular-cylindrical tube. This tube has at its beginning an outwardly widened portion 36 which, in the closed state of the half-shells 31, 32 in the direction of the arrows, is enclosed form-fittingly by a corresponding recess in the internal passage of the half-shells 31, 32 and is fixed both axially and radially. In addition, the internal passage of the half-shells 31, 32 fits snugly around the tube of the mixer housing.

Upon completion of the drilled hole, the drill chuck is removed. The connection of the anchor rod/drill rod 1 to the injection head/adapter 11 is effected by a connecting piece 3. The latter consists (as shown in the detail illustration of Fig. 4) of two half-shells 31, 32, each of which has a semicircular recess 33, 34 along its length. These recesses complement one another in the closed state of the half-shells in the direction of the arrows to form a circular-cylindrical internal passage having varying diameters. The diameters are so designed that in the closed state (as shown in Fig. 4) the internal passage fixes the connecting piece in a form-fitting manner to the injection head 11 on one side and to the anchor rod/drill rod 1 on the other. The injection head therefore has a widened portion 35 which fits into a correspondingly widened diameter of the internal passage 33, 34. To retain the anchor rod/drill rod 1, the internal passage has a coarse internal thread which corresponds to the external thread of the anchor rod/drill rod 1.
It is shown in Fig. 3 that the space 18 between the end of the injection head 11 and the end of the anchor rod/drill rod 1 is bridged and radially sealed by means of an annular seal 30. Here, too, the static mixer is located at the beginning of the anchor rod/drill rod 1.
In the embodiment according to Fig. 4, by contrast, the static mixer is located in the connecting piece 3 formed by the half-shells 31, 32. To achieve this, the mixing elements 20 are located here, too, in an insert component/mixer housing 21 configured as a circular-cylindrical tube. This tube has at its beginning an outwardly widened portion 36 which, in the closed state of the half-shells 31, 32 in the direction of the arrows, is enclosed form-fittingly by a corresponding recess in the internal passage of the half-shells 31, 32 and is fixed both axially and radially. In addition, the internal passage of the half-shells 31, 32 fits snugly around the tube of the mixer housing.
. .
This is especially important because the mixer housing 21 is preferably made of plastics material and is only made sufficiently pressure-resistant by its close abutment to the walls of the halt-shells firmly pressed together. Furthermore, it is especially important that the mixer housing is also supported form-fittingly in the axial direction at its outlet end, in order to prevent a mixer housing made of plastics material from splitting or rupturing axially. This axial fixing is effected in the example illustrated by abutment of the mixer housing against the end face of the anchor rod/drill rod 1 facing towards it, which anchor rod/drill rod 1 is in turn fixed in the half-shells of the connecting piece.
The non-return valve illustrated and described with reference to Figs. 1 and 3 is not shown in this case, but would also be used here with corresponding advantage.
Upon expiry of the filling time and completion of the charging of the drilled hole, the half-shells are moved apart (against the arrow direction), so that the anchor rod/drill rod and the injection head are released. As this happens the static mixer which, as described, is in the form of a modular unit, may also be ejected, because it is still filled with the hardening plastics mixture. If necessary the injection head and/or the connecting piece 3 are cleaned and a new modular unit is then inserted as the mixer before said components are clamped to another anchor rod/drill rod and charging thereof commences.
In the method according to Fig. 4 an extended form of control is also used.
The apparatus for charging a drilled hole is switched on and off by the switch 29, which synchronously activates the two stop valves 38 and 39 in the internal passages 12, 13 of the injection head 11, to allow through-flow or to effect pressure-proof blockage. At the start of charging the two pumps 24, 26 are set in operation by means of the control unit 28. When pressure has built up in the supply conduits 25, 26, the stop valves 38, 39 are synchronously opened by means of the switch 29, so that the mixing and charging process begins immediately with both components present. Upon expiry of the operating time/curing time, as described previously, the switch 29 again activates the stop valves 38, 39, causing synchronous and abrupt closing of the stop valves 38, 39. It is thereby ensured that after blocking at the outlet face 37, i.e. the end face oriented towards the mixer 20, none of the components can now emerge and cause contamination thereof. It is additionally provided, however, that after opening of the half-shells 31, 32, the outlet face is cleaned with a pressurised water jet. At any rate, the outlet face 37 is configured flat and without projections or recesses, so that it can be easily and effectively cleaned.
When the stop valves have been switched to block the flow, the two pumps build up a higher pressure in the conduits 25, 27. This pressure is detected by pressure sensors 23 in each of the conduits and is supplied to the control unit 28 via the lines 40, 41. The maximum limit pressure to which are each of the respective conduits may be subjected is stored in the control device. If either of these limit pressures is reached, the control device switches off the pump drive concerned, preferably bath pump drives/motors 24, 26.
The embodiment according to Fig. 4 additionally includes the special feature of the method, that the two plastics components, or their feed lines 12, 13, are brought together at a Y- or T-junction in the injection head, at a point located shortly before, or optimally in, the outlet face 37. Precisely the last-mentioned case facilitates keeping clean, or clearing, of the outlet face.

The non-return valve illustrated and described with reference to Figs. 1 and 3 is not shown in this case, but would also be used here with corresponding advantage.
Upon expiry of the filling time and completion of the charging of the drilled hole, the half-shells are moved apart (against the arrow direction), so that the anchor rod/drill rod and the injection head are released. As this happens the static mixer which, as described, is in the form of a modular unit, may also be ejected, because it is still filled with the hardening plastics mixture. If necessary the injection head and/or the connecting piece 3 are cleaned and a new modular unit is then inserted as the mixer before said components are clamped to another anchor rod/drill rod and charging thereof commences.
In the method according to Fig. 4 an extended form of control is also used.
The apparatus for charging a drilled hole is switched on and off by the switch 29, which synchronously activates the two stop valves 38 and 39 in the internal passages 12, 13 of the injection head 11, to allow through-flow or to effect pressure-proof blockage. At the start of charging the two pumps 24, 26 are set in operation by means of the control unit 28. When pressure has built up in the supply conduits 25, 26, the stop valves 38, 39 are synchronously opened by means of the switch 29, so that the mixing and charging process begins immediately with both components present. Upon expiry of the operating time/curing time, as described previously, the switch 29 again activates the stop valves 38, 39, causing synchronous and abrupt closing of the stop valves 38, 39. It is thereby ensured that after blocking at the outlet face 37, i.e. the end face oriented towards the mixer 20, none of the components can now emerge and cause contamination thereof. It is additionally provided, however, that after opening of the half-shells 31, 32, the outlet face is cleaned with a pressurised water jet. At any rate, the outlet face 37 is configured flat and without projections or recesses, so that it can be easily and effectively cleaned.
When the stop valves have been switched to block the flow, the two pumps build up a higher pressure in the conduits 25, 27. This pressure is detected by pressure sensors 23 in each of the conduits and is supplied to the control unit 28 via the lines 40, 41. The maximum limit pressure to which are each of the respective conduits may be subjected is stored in the control device. If either of these limit pressures is reached, the control device switches off the pump drive concerned, preferably bath pump drives/motors 24, 26.
The embodiment according to Fig. 4 additionally includes the special feature of the method, that the two plastics components, or their feed lines 12, 13, are brought together at a Y- or T-junction in the injection head, at a point located shortly before, or optimally in, the outlet face 37. Precisely the last-mentioned case facilitates keeping clean, or clearing, of the outlet face.
