Between the outer periphery of the intermediate tube body 137 and the inner periphery of the outer tube body 138, a passage 50 for pressurized air or fluid for discharging formed sludges are extendedly defined and communicate with those passages formed in the jionts 118 and 119.
  • fluid chamber 134 is acted by a pressure imparted by a gas filled in the gas chamber 135, thereby the fluid pressure in the high pressure oil passage 30 can be compensated through the orifices 117.
  • Excessive energy generated due to retraction of the piston 8 of the drilling head or switching of the valve can be stored within the pressurized fluid chamber 134 through the orifices 117.
  • Gas pressure within the gas chamber 135 changed (lowered by repeated operation can be adjusted by the gas supply valve 114.
  • the high pressure oil passage 30, the low pressure oil passage 40 and the passage 50 for pressurized air or fluid in the pressure compensation device 100 extend and communicate with those provided in the rod 60 and the drilling head 1.
  • this kind of joint means can be interposed between the drill connection 51 and 60 as well as between the two segments of the rod.
