Description

The present invention relates to a method for drilling, in particular percussion or rotary impact drilling, a hole in soil or rock material and defining an anchor in the hole, wherein a borehole is formed by a drill bit mounted on a drill bit and at the same time a drill pipe in Distance is introduced and coupled to the drill bit cladding tube, wherein the cladding tube is introduced by a tensile stress on this coupling with the drill bit in the hole, as well as a device for drilling, in particular impact or rotary impact drilling, holes in soil or rock material and for producing an anchoring, wherein a drill bit mounted on a drill pipe forms a borehole and a tube surrounding the drill string and adjacent to the drill bit and thus coupled is provided, wherein the jacket tube by a tensile stress on this coupling with the drill bit in the borehole is insertable.

In connection with the production of a hole or borehole in soil or rock material and a subsequent definition of an anchorage or a lining in the borehole, it is for example from WO 98/21439 and the WO 98/58132 it is known to introduce a cladding tube into the wellbore during the drilling operation, such as impact or rotational impact drilling, whereupon after completion of the bore, if necessary, a portion of the drillcrown is removed from the well together with the drill string while the cladding tube remains in the wellbore so that subsequently is formed by filling with a hardening mass anchor in the borehole. According to the training according to WO 98/58132 the drill pipe can be formed on its outer circumference with additional ribs and grooves, so that when the drill pipe remains in the borehole and a subsequent backfilling a correspondingly good anchor effect can be achieved.

From the WO 00/66873 there is provided an apparatus and method for forming a wellbore in soil or rock material, wherein a wellbore is produced by a drilling apparatus coupled to a separate drive via a drill string, and a friction bolt assembly into the body via a separate drive and independently of the introduction of the drill bit drilled hole is driven.

From the US-A 5,836,405 a handheld drilling apparatus has become known in which a drill string carrying a drill string is surrounded by a longitudinally slotted cladding or fastener at a distance, wherein both the drilling member and the cladding tube by exerting a shock load at the end facing away from the bore hole inside the hole be introduced.

Alternatively, it is after making a well known to remove the drill with the drill pipe from the well, then an anchor or an anchor device is introduced into the well, for example, from the EP-B 0 241 451 , of the US-A 4,490,074 , of the DE-AS 21 05 888 , of the US-A 4,310,266 , of the EP-A 0 875 663 and further references embodiments are known in which the subsequently introduced, tubular anchorage is held by corresponding holding elements on a reduced compared to the final diameter, whereupon after complete insertion into the borehole and removing the holding devices, the prestressed tube, which usually has a in the has substantially slit extending in the longitudinal direction, widens and thereby comes into contact with the borehole wall to achieve a desired anchoring effect or is pressed. A disadvantage of this known prior art, on the one hand, the fact that the borehole must be prepared in a first process step, after which the drilling tool including the drill string in a further process step, the anchor device is introduced into the possibly a large length having borehole, then subsequently by removing the corresponding holding device by widening the outer diameter succeeds an investment in the borehole wall. It is immediately apparent that not only for the two separate steps, a correspondingly increased time is required, but that, where appropriate, a subsequent introduction of such an anchor device of great length is associated with difficulties. Furthermore, it can be assumed that a removal of the drilling device together with the drill pipe and a subsequent introduction of the anchoring device is feasible only in relatively solid soil or rock, which must be ensured that not, for example, during the drilling process or after removing the drill and before the final introduction of the anchoring device material breaks into the wellbore, so that the wellbore would be blocked, whereby an introduction of the anchor device is no longer possible.

The present invention therefore aims to provide a method and a device of the type mentioned above, wherein a simplified construction during the drilling process at least a provisional assurance is made possible and immediately after completion of a borehole anchoring to the inner wall of the well can be achieved ,

To solve these objects, the method according to the invention, starting from a method of the type mentioned above substantially characterized in that the cladding tube formed with a longitudinal slot is at least partially introduced substantially into engagement with the wellbore during drilling. Since the cladding tube formed with a longitudinal slot rests at least partially against the borehole wall during the production of the borehole, it becomes possible to provide an at least provisional securing during the boring process, it being ensured by providing the longitudinal slit that the cladding tube is sufficiently elastic or rigid is compliant to oppose, even with at least partial abutment against the borehole wall a not excessively large resistance to an introduction of the cladding tube, for example by a tensile or impact stress. In addition, it is ensured by the longitudinal slot having a cladding tube that immediately after the completion of the bore a corresponding anchorage by at least partial contact with the borehole wall can be achieved, so that to form such an anchoring time savings over known embodiments, wherein after completion of a hole the drill pipe has been removed and a separate anchor has been introduced into the borehole. In addition, the inventive method can be independent of the pierced Apply soil or rock material, since the cladding tube is introduced directly into the borehole during the introduction or formation of the borehole, so that even with loose rock, in which possibly a break-in at least after removal of the drilling tool and before the introduction of the anchorage are feared would have to fear any difficulties such as subsequently produced anchorages, since the introduced during drilling cladding always gets the free passage cross section of the well even with loose rock upright. After completion of the wellbore either the drilling tool can be at least partially removed with the drill string through the interior of the remaining casing in the wellbore or it can be to increase the anchor effect and the drill pipe together with the drill in the borehole, so that not only by the system Cladding tube to the borehole inner wall results in an anchoring effect, but also by the remaining drilling tool in the hole and the drill string anchoring effect can be increased. When introducing the cladding tube, which has a longitudinal slot, at least partially in contact with the borehole wall is further assumed that in a known introduction of a rinsing fluid in the region of the drill bit and thus carried out discharge of mined material also, in the region of the outer periphery the cladding tube a correspondingly liquid or viscous material layer is present, which gives a lubricating or lubricating effect when introducing the cladding tube. After completion of the bore and thus interruption of a further supply of a rinsing fluid, it is to be assumed that upon hardening of the material in the region of the outer circumference of the cladding tube, a corresponding increase in the friction between the outer circumference of the cladding tube and the borehole inner wall occurs, so that a correspondingly good anchoring effect of the adjacent to the borehole wall cladding can achieve.

In support of the anchoring effect of the at least partially already applied during insertion of the borehole inner wall cladding tube is proposed according to a preferred embodiment, that after completion of the borehole and removing the drill string an expandable element is introduced into the interior of the cladding tube and expanded. Such introduction of an expandable element enables the cladding tube to be reliably fixed on subsections, where appropriate, on the borehole inner wall, so that the anchoring effect can be increased.

In a particularly simple manner, an expandable element in the interior of the cladding tube can be defined in that the expandable element is widened by a impact stress, as corresponds to a further preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention. Such an expandable element not only provides a reliable abutment of the cladding tube at the borehole inner wall, but also counteracts a reduction of the clear cross section of the cladding tube, for example with a compressive stress by surrounding material or a tensile stress in the longitudinal direction of the anchor formed by the cladding tube otherwise, by providing the longitudinal slot, tensile stresses in the longitudinal direction of the cladding tube forming the anchorage could otherwise lead to a reduction in the armature cross section of the cladding tube, as a result of which the anchoring effect would be correspondingly reduced.

Depending on the surrounding material and thus also on the nature of the cladding tube, it is preferably proposed for an introduction of the cladding tube during the drilling process that the cladding tube is additionally introduced into the drilled hole by impact stress. It is according to the invention, the cladding tube, for example, coupled with the drill bit in a suitable manner and will be introduced by a tensile stress in the wellbore during the drilling process. In particular, with a larger material cross-section and thus higher strength having ducts, which are used to provide a more resistant anchorage, in addition, the cladding tube can be introduced by a Schlagbeanspruchung in the borehole simultaneously with the drilling process, not excessive forces on the drill bit for a take of the To introduce cladding tube.

For a proper introduction of the cladding tube during the drilling process is proposed in this context according to a further preferred embodiment, that after completion of the bore at least one defined by a predetermined breaking point connection along the slotted substantially longitudinally cladding tube is achieved.

A particularly simple release or separation of the predetermined breaking point is preferably carried out according to the invention in that the release or separation of the predetermined breaking point is effected by a slight retraction of at least the impact shoe and the cladding tube mounted thereon and an impact of the impact shoe. It can thus after completion of the bore by slight retraction of at least the beater and possibly the ring core and subsequent, the beater provided with festgehaltenem or at least partially frictionally mounted in the produced wellbore casing by expanding the inner diameter of the longitudinally slotted cladding tube by the For example, by providing matched support surfaces in the region of the front end of the cladding tube, a separation or release of the predetermined breaking point can be achieved by widening or spreading the front end of the cladding tube so that the overall outer diameter of the cladding tube is properly aligned expanded cladding on the finished borehole wall is achieved.

To further increase the anchoring effect, especially in loose rock or in cooperation with a projecting from the well end end optionally anchoring plate is proposed according to a further preferred embodiment that after completion of the well in a conventional manner, a filling of the interior of the cladding a hardening mass is made. The hardening material may leak out into the surrounding material, in particular in the front region and along the longitudinal slot of the expandable jacket tube, whereby the anchoring of the jacket tube is improved. By a leakage of the curing material and a subsequent bracing with an outer end of the cladding tube to be provided anchor plate can be beyond a fortification of possibly loosely layered soil or rock material can be achieved.

To solve the problems initially posed a device of the type mentioned above is substantially characterized in that the cladding tube has a longitudinal slot extending substantially in the longitudinal direction of the cladding tube. By providing a cladding tube formed with a longitudinal slot, it is ensured that the cladding tube can be introduced into the wellbore at least partially in contact with the borehole inner wall during the drilling operation, after which the drilling operation is terminated by the immediate, at least partial abutment of the cladding tube at the borehole inner wall a corresponding anchoring effect can be achieved.

In support of the anchoring effect is proposed according to a preferred embodiment that after completion of the borehole and removing the drill string an expandable element in the interior of the cladding tube can be introduced and expanded in abutment with the inner wall of the cladding tube. By such an expandable element, which is expandable in abutment against the inner wall of the cladding tube, a secure anchoring of the cladding tube is achieved in the borehole, wherein such an expandable element, for example, a reduction in cross-section of the cladding tube, in particular in a tensile stress on the anchoring formed by the cladding tube, counteracts and thus reliably maintains a desired anchor effect.

For a particularly favorable definition of the expandable element in the interior of the cladding tube is proposed according to a particularly preferred embodiment that the expandable element is formed by a sleeve which is expandable by introducing a particular conical element by a shock load, in particular when providing a plurality proposed by expandable elements inside the cladding tube and for a suitable positioning thereof according to a further preferred embodiment, that the cladding tube is provided on its inner wall with protrusions or protrusions for positioning the expandable element.

For a particularly simple introduction, it is preferably proposed that the cladding tube has at least one predetermined breaking point along its longitudinal slit running essentially in the longitudinal direction of the cladding tube. By inventively provided, at least one predetermined breaking point along the longitudinal slot of the cladding tube, the cladding tube can be easily introduced into the well during the drilling process, while after completion of the well, the at least one predetermined breaking point is solved or separated to the cladding in contact with the Drill hole inner wall to achieve the anchorage bring.

After completion of the bore, the at least one predetermined breaking point must be able to be released upon introduction of a corresponding force. In addition, however, the predetermined breaking point during the drilling process must ensure sufficient strength of the extending substantially over the entire length of the cladding longitudinal slot. For this purpose, it is proposed according to a further preferred embodiment that the at least one predetermined breaking point along the longitudinal slot of the cladding tube is formed by a weld for bridging the longitudinal slot. By appropriate positioning and training and optionally number of welds as a predetermined breaking point hiebei different requirements both in terms of resistance during the drilling process as well as for a separation or release of the predetermined breaking point after completion of the bore can be taken into account.

For a proper introduction of the cladding tube during the drilling process is also proposed that the cladding tube is set at the end facing the drill bit on a beater of the drill bit, as corresponds to a further preferred embodiment of the device according to the invention. In addition to such introduction of the cladding tube by a tensile stress by fixing the cladding tube to the drill bit or on the impact shoe can also be provided that on the protruding from the borehole end of the cladding tube a shock stress is applied, this particular for a greater strength having cladding tubes is possible.

In order to achieve a corresponding anchoring effect of the expandable after completion of the bore cladding tube is proposed according to a further preferred embodiment, that the cladding tube from a prestressed material, in particular metal, is formed. For the completion of the anchor or to increase the anchor effect in particular at partially loose layers of rock material moreover, it is preferably proposed according to the invention that, after completion of the borehole, an anchoring plate can be fixed to the casing tube at the end projecting from the soil or rock material.

For a proper removal of the mined rock is also proposed according to a further preferred embodiment that the cladding tube has in the region of the adjoining the drill bit end in a conventional manner at least one passage opening for introducing the degraded soil or rock material in the interior of the cladding so that the degraded material can be discharged from the bore in the space defined between the drill string and the cladding, in particular annular space.

In Fig. 1 is generally denoted by 1 a drilling tool or a drill bit, which (s) with the interposition of a connector 2 and a schematically indicated by 3 beater with a running inside a cladding tube 4 drill string 5 is connected. The drill bit 1 is acted upon by the drill string 5 by a percussion or rotary impact drilling device arranged not shown in detail, outside the soil or rock material to be processed, whose surface is denoted by 6. The inner contour of a borehole formed by the drilling tool or the drill bit 1 is in Fig. 1 indicated schematically by 7.

How out Fig. 1 can be seen, the cladding tube 4 has a substantially longitudinally extending longitudinal slot 8, as well as from the illustration of Fig. 2 is clearly visible. From the illustration according to Fig. 2 It can further be seen that the sleeve 4 is made of a prestressed material, in particular metal, wherein the material has a larger outer circumference in its relaxed state outside the borehole shown in solid lines than in the condition shown by dashed, thin lines in the borehole wherein the slot is designated 8 '. Thus, the cladding tube 4 is biased into the borehole to assure that the cladding tube 4 is at least partially in contact with the borehole inner wall 7 so as to permit at least provisional securement already during the drilling operation.

Out Fig. 2 Furthermore, it can be seen that the drill pipe 5 is provided with a central passage 9, through which a flushing fluid is introduced into the region of the drill bit 1, so that mined material at least partially in the region of the outer circumference of the casing 4 between the casing 4 and the borehole inner wall. 7 is applied, which can be achieved by the introduction of the flushing fluid at the interface between the outer periphery of the cladding tube and the borehole inner wall 7, a lubricating effect. By this lubricating effect, the frictional resistance between the outer circumference of the cladding tube 4 and the borehole inner wall 7 during the drilling process is correspondingly reduced, while after completing the borehole 7 and thus interrupting the flushing agent supply in the region of the drill bit 1 by curing a frictional Connection between the cladding tube 4 and the inner wall of the hole 7 can be achieved.

At the in Fig. 1 illustrated embodiment, the introduction of the cladding tube 4, which in the adjoining the drill bit 1 region 4 'has a conically tapered outer shape, by a tensile stress, which is introduced via the beater 3 on the cladding tube 4.

At 10 is in Fig. 1 denotes a transition sleeve, which allows a definition of a drive device not shown for a percussion or rotary impact drilling.

At the in Fig. 3 shown, modified embodiment, in addition to the applied by the impact shoe 3 tensile stress, the cladding tube 4 in the region of the anchor head 6 via the transition sleeve 10 subjected to a shock stress, so that the cladding tube 4 is introduced under both a tensile and a impact stress in the interior of the hole again denoted by 7.

The cladding tube 4 in turn has a longitudinal slot 8 and is discontinued in partial areas of its outer circumference or formed with a reduced cross-section, wherein such stepped portions in Fig. 3 denoted by 11. It can thus be achieved only a partial investment of the cladding tube 4, in particular during the Einbringvorgangs, which is favorable, for example, at an expected high frictional resistance between the outer circumference of the cladding tube 4 and the inner wall of the well 7 to achieve a proper Bohrfortschritts.

In the embodiment according to Fig. 4 , which is not covered by the invention, it is seen that the cladding tube 4 is introduced only by a shock load on the anchor head 6 through the transition sleeve 10 into the interior of the borehole 7, while in this embodiment no Zugmitnahme by a compound of the cladding tube 4 with the drill bit 1 is made. Such introduction of a cladding tube 4 by means of impact stress is possible, in particular in the case of a correspondingly more solid cladding tube or a cladding tube 4, which has a higher strength.

At the in Fig. 5 shown, individual process steps is in Fig. 5a the formation or production of the bore hole 7 is shown, wherein the cladding tube 4, for example, similar to the embodiment according to FIG Fig. 4 is introduced by an impact stress on the anchor head 6, while no connection between the cladding tube 4 and the drill head 1 is provided.

In Fig. 5 In each case an anchor plate 13 is indicated in the region of the projecting from the soil or rock material 12 end.

After completion of the hole 7 is, as in Fig. 5b is shown, the drill pipe 5 according to the arrow 14 removed from the borehole 7, while the drill bit 1 in the borehole 7 remains.

After removal of the drill string 4, an expandable element generally designated 15 is introduced into the interior of the cladding tube 4 in the interior of the cladding tube 4 in accordance with the arrow 16. The expandable element 15 consists of a sleeve 17, which is conically tapered and at least partially has a longitudinal slot 18, wherein in the interior of the sleeve 17, a conical element 19 can be introduced.

After insertion or insertion of the expandable, two-part element 15 into the interior of the cladding tube 4, for example in the region of stops or projections 20 for positioning the expandable element, a striking stress is exerted on the conical element 19 via the transition sleeve 10, so that the two-part, expandable element 15 is positioned at the desired position inside the cladding tube and fixed to the inner wall of the cladding tube 4.

This introduced, expandable element 15 ensures that a cross-sectional reduction of the cladding tube 4, for example, by a compressive stress by surrounding material or upon exerting a tensile stress in the direction of a pull or release movement of the anchor does not occur, so that the desired anchoring effect is reliably maintained , In a tensile stress on the anchor formed by the cladding tube 4 is in the event that the expandable element 15 is not provided, a reduction in cross-section through the longitudinal slot 8 of the cladding tube 4 possible, with such a reduction in cross-sectional area, the anchoring effect would be deteriorated.

Instead of providing positioning projections 20, the expandable element 15 can also be brought directly into contact with the drill bit 1 remaining in the borehole 7, as shown in FIG Fig. 5d is indicated. In addition, it can be provided that a plurality of expandable elements 15 is introduced into the interior of the cladding tube 4 in order to achieve a corresponding support, the anchoring effect of the cladding tube 4 at different locations. Such multiple, expandable elements 15 can be arranged by appropriate design in particular of the conical sleeve 17 and vote with corresponding positioning projections 20.

Alternatively or in addition to the introduction of the expandable elements 15 may be provided to fill the interior of the cladding tube 4 with a hardening mass after completion of the borehole 7 and optionally removing the drill string 5.

In Fig. 6 is in a further modified embodiment again denoted by 1 a drilling tool or a drill bit, which (s) is connected with the interposition of a connector 2 and a schematically indicated with 3 beater with a running inside a cladding tube 4 drill pipe 5, wherein the drill bit via the drill pipe 5 by a non-illustrated, outside of the soil or rock material to be processed, whose surface is denoted by 6, arranged impact or rotary impact drilling device is acted upon. The inner contour of a borehole formed by the drilling tool or the drill bit 1 is in Fig. 6 again denoted by 7.

How out Fig. 6 can be seen, the cladding tube 4 in turn has a substantially longitudinally extending longitudinal slot 8, wherein at least one predetermined breaking point 29 along the longitudinal extension of the longitudinal slot 8 is provided, said predetermined breaking point is formed for example by a weld 29. The cladding tube 4 is hiebei the beater 3 fixed via an intermediate element or is taken by the beater 3 during the drilling process, so that immediately during the drilling process with the Longitudinal slot 8 trained cladding tube 4 is introduced into the borehole 7.

For a removal of the material degraded by the drill bit 1, a passage opening 31 is provided in the front region of the jacket tube 4, wherein the passage opening 31 is formed to form an enlarged, clear passage cross section of the longitudinal slot 8. Through this passage opening 31 passes through the drilling tool 1 degraded material in the defined between the sheath 4 and the drill pipe 5 space or annulus and is applied to the end facing away from the drill bit 1. If necessary, for example symmetrically to the passage opening 31, a second passage opening in the cladding tube 4 may be provided on the radially opposite portion of the circumference.

After completion of the bore is carried out by loosening or separating the predetermined breaking point 29 defining weld a widening of the biased cladding tube 4, whereby the desired anchoring effect can be achieved.
