Definitions

  • This invention concerns a rotary casing-rotation device for excavation machines with rotary tools, as set forth in the main claim.
  • the rotary casing-rotation device according to the invention is applied to excavation machines employing rotary tools to make boreholes for foundations and, to be more exact, to the obtaining of foundation piles.
  • the excavation machines to which the invention is applied may be of a hydraulic or mechanical type and enable piles to be obtained with diameters ranging from 600 to 2500 mm. and with depths at least of 80 metres.
  • These machines comprise a drilling assembly in which a rotation head is associated with a rotary tool together with a plurality of interposed shafts, which are assembled axially until the required depth has been reached.
  • the excavation machines include at their front an assembly to insert tubular casings having an outer diameter greater than that of the rotary tool, these casings being inserted into the ground in a position substantially on the same axis as the borehole and at least along a longitudinal part of the borehole and having the purpose of retaining the sidewall of the borehole.
  • Rotary casing-rotation devices are employed at the present time for insertion of these tubular casings and ensure a high torque so as to be able to rotate the casing at the same time as they thrust the casing downwards.
  • casing oscillators are associated in a front position with the foundation excavation machines and may form an element substantially independent of those machines or may be driven by the excavation machine with which they are associated.
  • This system requires a plurality of auxiliary accessories both for its installation and for its operation, and those accessories make the operations of producing the pile complicated and long.
  • a first device provides the rotation and thrust of the rotary tool and supplies continuously the motion and thrust to a second device which provides the rotation and thrust of the casings.
  • the rotary casing-rotation device is therefore associated directly and stably with the device that rotates the rotary drilling tool, and both devices are driven by the same motor.
  • This invention enables the rotary casing-rotation device to be driven independently of the tool rotation device, depending on the specific requirements.
  • the rotary casing-rotation device according to the invention is located on the same axis as, and in a lower position than, the tool rotation device.
  • the rotary casing-rotation device is always independent of the tool rotation device, each of the two devices being associated with its own independent motor unit.
  • the tool rotation device and the rotary casing-rotation device are coaxial and superimposed on each other, the tool rotation device being positioned above.
  • the tool rotation device may be momentarily associated with, and released from, the rotary casing-rotation device, and in this case the machine includes one single motor unit governing both the above devices.
  • the motor unit therefore performs the twofold function of providing motion for the tool rotation device and for the rotary casing-rotation device, but this supply to one or both of the devices depends only on the choice of the machine operator.
  • the invention enables the tool rotation device to be coupled with, and released from, the rotary casing-rotation device with a simple, automatic and remote-controlled operation when so required by the operations.
  • the tool rotation device and the rotary casing-rotation device are coaxial and superimposed on each other and are associated with each other by a transmission assembly, for instance of an epicyclic type.
  • the transmission assembly acts also as a multiplier of torque between the tool rotation device and the rotary casing-rotation device, thus making available for the operation of insertion of the casing in the ground a twisting moment, and therefore a torque, much greater than that required for the insertion of the rotary drilling tool in the ground.
  • the transmission assembly includes vertically movable coupling flange means having a first coupling position and a second disconnected position.
  • the rotary casing-rotation device In the first coupling position of the coupling flange means the rotary casing-rotation device is rotatably connected to the drilling tool rotation device and is driven therewith but at a reduced angular speed.
  • the coupling flange means comprise a pair of facing anchorage flanges including a first anchorage flange having anchorage elements of a male type (or female type) which cooperate momentarily with a coordinated plurality of anchorage elements of a female type (or male type) having a mating form and included in the second anchorage flange of the coupling flange means associated with the transmission assembly governing the rotary casing-rotation device.
  • the momentary cooperation between the first and second anchorage flanges is obtained by an axial movement performed by raising/lowering one anchorage flange in relation to the other anchorage flange by means of actuator means, for instance.
  • the reference number 10 in the attached figures denotes generally a rotary casing-rotation device according to the invention.
  • the rotary casing-rotation device 10 is fitted to an excavation machine with rotary tools which is employed in the field of foundations for the purpose of making a borehole and for the simultaneous insertion of a tubular casing for the production of piles.
  • the excavation machine to which the invention is applied has the rotary casing-rotation device 10 coaxial with, and positioned below, the tool rotation device 13.
  • the tool rotation device 13 is driven by a first motor, not shown here, by means of a first gearwheel 11 shown only partly, whereas the rotary casing-rotation device 10 is driven by a second motor 14 independent of the first motor.
  • the second motor 14 cooperates with a second gearwheel 20 associated with a transmission assembly 15 of an epicyclic type.
  • This epicyclic train 15 acts as a torque multiplier and transmits motion to the rotary casing-rotation device 10 according to the invention.
  • rotary casing-rotation device 10 and the tool rotation device 13 are associated with each other in a manner such that they can be momentarily disactivated.
  • the rotary casing-rotation device 10 is associated with the tool rotation device 13 by means of a transmission assembly 115 which can be momentarily disactivated.
  • the excavation machine comprises only one motor, which is not shown here and which transmits rotary motion by means of the first gearwheel 11 to the tool rotation device 13 and to the rotary casing-rotation device 10 when so required by the operations.
  • the transmission assembly 115 comprises coupling flange means 16 and the epicyclic train 15, which acts as a torque multiplier to impart to the rotary casing-rotation device 10 a speed and a torque such as will ensure the insertion of the casing in the ground.
  • the coupling flange means 16 comprise a first anchorage flange 16a and a second anchorage flange 16b, which are superimposed on each other and are associated respectively with the tool rotation device 13 and with the rotary casing-rotation device 10.
  • the coupling flange means 16 enable the rotary casing-rotation device 10 to be released from the tool rotation device 13 in a simple, automatic and remote-controlled manner.
  • the tool rotation device 13 includes on its lower side the solidly fitted second gearwheel 21, on which the first anchorage flange 16a is installed so as to be vertically movable but rotatably clamped.
  • the coupling flange means 16 have a first coupling position, in which the two anchorage flanges 16a, 16b are rotatably clamped to each other, and a second disconnected position, in which the two anchorage flanges 16a, 16b are rotatably released from each other and are free to rotate independently.
  • the first anchorage flange 16a of the coupling flange means 16 is solidly associated with lifting/lowering means 19, which in this example consist of diametrically opposed actuators 12.
  • lifting/lowering means 19 enable the first anchorage flange 16a to be distanced from the second anchorage flange 16b so as to release the rotary casing-rotation device 10 from the tool rotation device 13.
  • the first anchorage flange 16a comprises a plurality of peripherally arranged seating or holes 17, with which there cooperates momentarily a coordinated plurality of pins 18 having a mating form and included on the upper surface of the second anchorage flange 16b associated with the rotary casing-rotation device 10.
