Definitions

  • the invention relates to a ramming device with a pneumatically driven percussion piston movable reciprocally in an axial direction in a housing and a control device which has a control part which is movable with the percussion piston and a control part which cooperates with the latter and is held on the housing and controls the pressurization of the percussion piston.
  • Such ramming devices are used, for example, to advance earth bores for cables and lines laid underground.
  • control device is usually formed by a tubular extension extending from the rear end of the percussion piston and a control sleeve which engages into the interior of the extension and which is supported on an axially extending support part on a rear end piece of the housing.
  • the control sleeve and the percussion piston with the tubular extension form a rear pressure chamber which is supplied with compressed air via a supply channel formed in the support part for the control sleeve and which causes the percussion piston to move forward.
  • a reversal of the drive direction can be achieved in the known device in that the control sleeve using a to the device connected compressed air hose is adjusted so that the front pressure chamber is pressurized earlier. The forward movement of the percussion piston is then cushioned, and at the end of the backward movement the percussion piston strikes the end piece so that an inward-directed pulse is transmitted to the housing.
  • the control sleeve is adjusted in the axial direction with the aid of a spindle drive by rotating the compressed air hose.
  • control sleeve is adjusted in the axial direction when the device is switched off by pulling or pushing the compressed air hose, or in which the control sleeve is provided with recesses which, by rotating the control sleeve with the aid of the compressed air hose, into one of the radial channels of the tubular Forzatzes corresponding position can be used (DE-C-31 04 547).
  • the main section of the percussion piston must have a certain length so that a sufficient inert mass of the percussion piston is achieved.
  • the length of the control section is determined by the stroke of the percussion piston and, if necessary, by the axial displacement of the control sleeve.
  • the end piece of the housing serves to fasten the supporting part and the control sleeve and must also withstand the impact of the percussion piston when driving the device in the backward direction, but is on the other hand weakened by the axial ventilation channels. This end piece must therefore also have a certain length for reasons of stability. For these reasons, the conventional devices have a relatively large overall length.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a ramming device which has a smaller overall length for a given mass of the percussion piston.
  • the housing-side control part is formed by the end piece of the housing, and that with the percussion piston movable control part is formed by a control piston projecting axially from the percussion piston, which plunges into an opening of the end piece.
  • the end piece is thus included in the control direction, so that compared to the prior art, the overall length of the percussion piston remains unchanged, and a reduction in the overall length is achieved, or a greater mass of the percussion piston is made possible with the overall length unchanged.
  • the rear pressure chamber formed between the main part of the percussion piston and the end piece is directly connected to the pressure source, and the pressure supply and ventilation of the front pressure chamber is controlled by control channels arranged radially in the control piston, which are connected to the front pressure chamber via an axial channel of the percussion piston are and are open to the rear pressure chamber in the front end position of the percussion piston.
  • a particularly simple and space-saving construction is achieved in that the end piece is provided with a through opening and the control piston projects so far rearward from the end piece in the rear end position of the percussion piston that the control channels are open to the atmosphere.
  • the end piece is provided with a branch line via which the control channels of the control piston can already be connected to the pressure source within the end piece. Compressed air can already be introduced into the front pressure chamber via this branch line before the percussion piston reaches its front end position. This dampens the forward movement of the percussion piston. If the control channels of the control piston pass through the end piece during the subsequent backward movement of the percussion piston, the front pressure chamber receives an additional pressure surge via the branch line, so that the backward stroke of the piston is extended.
  • the compressed air supply to the rear pressure chamber preferably takes place via an axial bore formed in the end piece, which defines the end of the compressed air hose receives and from which the branch line branches off in such a way that the mouth of the branch line can be opened and closed by moving or rotating the compressed air hose.
  • a ramming device shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has a housing 12 provided with a striking tip 10, which is closed at the rear end by an end piece 14.
  • a front pressure chamber 18 and a rear pressure chamber 20 are formed in the interior of the housing 12 by an impact piston 16 which is axially movably guided in the housing.
  • the percussion piston 16 is provided at the rear end with an axially projecting control piston 22, which plunges into an opening 24 of the end piece 14 and is slidably guided in this opening.
  • the control piston has radial control channels 26 which are connected to the front pressure chamber 18 via an axial channel 28.
  • a compressed air hose 30 is connected to the rear pressure chamber 20.
  • the front pressure chamber 18 When the percussion piston 16 is in the front end position shown in FIG. 1, the front pressure chamber 18 is supplied with compressed air via the compressed air hose 30, the rear pressure chamber 20, the radial control channels 26 and the axial channel 28.
  • the pressure in the front pressure chamber 18 acts on the entire cross-sectional area of the percussion piston 16, while the pressure prevailing in the rear chamber 20 acts only on the annular surface outside the control piston 22.
  • the percussion piston 16 is therefore moved in the reverse direction.
  • the control channels 26 enter the end piece 14 the compressed air supply for the front pressure chamber 18 is interrupted. Due to the inertia, the percussion piston 16 continues to move back until it reaches the position shown in FIG. 2.
  • control channels 26 are connected to the atmosphere outside the end piece 14, so that the front pressure chamber 18 is vented. Due to the pressure still prevailing in the rear pressure chamber 20, the percussion piston 16 is braked and driven in the forward direction. In the course of the forward movement, the percussion piston 16 is accelerated further, so that it strikes the front end of the housing 12 at high speed and transmits a propulsion impulse to the housing.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 The ramming device shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is preferably used only as a striking device outside of the ground because of the laterally connected compressed air hose 30.
  • FIGS. 3 to 6 show a ramming device which is suitable for use in the ground, since the compressed air hose 30 enters the housing axially from the rear. This device also offers the possibility of reversing the direction of advance by remote control.
  • the device according to FIGS. 3 to 6 differs from the previously described exemplary embodiment in the following features.
  • the compressed air hose 30 is rotatably held in an axial bore 32 of the end piece 14.
  • the axial bore 32 is connected via a radial bore 34 to an annular chamber 36 which surrounds the circumference of the control piston 22.
  • the compressed air hose 30 is provided with a lateral opening 38 which is in the same axial position as the radial bore 34. In the position shown in Figures 3, 4 and 5, however, the side opening 38 of the compressed air hose is turned away from the radial bore 34, so that the compressed air only enters the rear pressure chamber 20. In this position, the ramming device is driven in the forward direction, as described above in connection with Figures 1 and 2.
  • the lateral opening 38 of the compressed air hose is aligned with the radial bore 34 of the end piece, and the opening 38, the radial bore 34 and the annular chamber 36 form a branch line, via which the front one Pressure chamber 18 can be supplied with compressed air while the control channels 26 pass the end piece.
  • the front pressure chamber 18 is again supplied with compressed air as soon as the control channels 26 enter the annular chamber 36 again.
  • the forward movement of the percussion piston is thereby braked and finally reversed, so that the percussion piston does not strike the front end of the housing 12.
  • the length of the annular chamber 36 in the axial direction is selected so that braking and reversal of the movement of the percussion piston 16 can be achieved over this length. However, even if the percussion piston should shoot beyond the intended reverse position so that the control channels 26 are separated from the annular chamber 36, there is no malfunction. since in this case the air volume of the front pressure chamber 18 is compressed so that the percussion piston springs back elastically.
  • the direction of advance can be reversed in a simple manner due to the mode of operation described above, by rotating the compressed air hose 30 about its longitudinal axis.
  • the reversal can also be effected in that the compressed air hose 30 is displaced in the axial direction or at the same time is displaced and rotated.
  • a pull-out protection prevents the compressed air hose 30 from being pulled out of the end piece 14 entirely.
  • the reversal can also be effected via a valve arranged in the end piece 14, which is actuated by a cable or other remote control means or which switches over automatically when the pressure supply is switched off.
  • the end piece 14 is arranged directly at the end of the housing shell, so that the control piston 22 projects freely out of the housing in its rear end position.
  • the housing 12 can, however, also be extended beyond the end piece 14 to the rear, or further housing parts can be connected to the end piece at the rear.
  • a component with a sieve or a protective device it is possible to attach a component with a sieve or a protective device to prevent dirt from entering the machine body.
  • the term “end piece” in the sense of the present application is to be understood as a component which is located at the end of one of the pressure chambers, but not necessarily at the end of the housing.
