Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for handling drill cuttings, in which method the drill cuttings are directed away from a drill hole by means of a dust collection system.
  • the invention further relates to a dust collection system for a rock drilling rig, the system comprising at least a suction funnel to be placed on the mouth of the drill hole, a suction device generating suction in the system, at least one dust separator and a duct leading from the suction funnel to the dust separator.
  • the invention relates yet to a changer unit for directing drill cuttings.
  • known solutions are, in practice, based on detaching the dust removal system from the hole, which entails a problem that, for instance, aqueous drill cuttings slide back into the drill hole when drilling ceases, or on interrupting suction in the dust removal, which may cause a blockage of drill cuttings in a dust tube leading to the dust separator.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a novel and improved method for handling drill cuttings, a dust collection system for a rock drilling rig and a changer unit.
  • the method of the invention is characterized by directing drill cuttings in the dust collection system with at least one changer unit having at least a first and a second operating position and by determining water content in the drill cuttings and directing the drill cuttings, according to the water content in the drill cuttings, in the first operating position to one or more dust separators and in the second operating position away from the dust collection system before the dust separator.
  • a method according to the preamble of claim 9 is known from JP 11 247576 .
  • the system of the invention is characterized by comprising at least one changer unit having at least two operating positions, in the first of which operating positions there will be provided a continuous duct from the suction funnel to the dust separator and in the second of the operating positions there will not be provided a continuous duct from the suction funnel to the duct collector, and consequently drill cuttings are directed away from the dust collection system before the duct separator.
  • the changer unit of the invention according to the preamble of claim 1 is arrangeable in at least two operating positions in the first of which operating positions there will be provided a continuous duct from an inlet duct of drill cuttings to a discharge duct of drill cuttings and in the second operating position the duct from the inlet duct to the discharge duct of drill cuttings is cut.
  • the basic idea of the invention is that it is possible to select an operating position, in which drill cuttings are directed away from the dust collection system before the dust separator if the water content in the drill cuttings rises so high that it could damage the operation of the dust separator.
  • This may be implemented, for instance, by arranging in the dust collection system for drilling or in connection thereof a changer wherewith it is possible to prevent access of exceedingly aqueous drill cuttings into the dust separator.
  • the invention has an advantage that when water content in the drill cuttings rises excessively high, the drill cuttings may be readily directed such that they have no access to the dust separator to damage its operation. Further, the invention has an advantage that wet drill cuttings are prevented from blocking a dust tube leading to the dust separator.
  • the basic idea of an embodiment is that at least one upper limit value is set for water content in drill cuttings, and when the upper limit value is exceeded, the drill cuttings are directed away from the dust collection system before the dust separator.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that selection of the operating position may be made more explicit and information on the limit value being exceeded may be conveyed to the operator of the drilling apparatus.
  • determination of a limit value is generally, in practice, a prerequisite for automatic control of the selection of operating position.
  • the basic idea of an embodiment is that the operator of the drilling apparatus assesses water content in drill cuttings on the sensory basis and selects manually whether the drill cuttings are directed to the dust separator or away from the dust collection system before the dust separator.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that it is simple to implement.
  • the basic idea of an embodiment is that water content in drill cuttings is determined automatically and information on the moisture of drill cuttings is conveyed to the operator of the drilling apparatus, who selects manually, whether the drill cuttings are directed to the dust separator or away from the dust collection system before the dust separator.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that observation of changes in water content becomes easier and there will be less chances of human error.
  • the basic idea of an embodiment is that water content in drill cuttings is determined automatically and the information is conveyed to a control unit which selects an operating position on the basis of the water content in drill cuttings, whereby the drill cuttings are directed either to the dust separator or, when the water content is excessively high, away from the dust collection system before the dust separator.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that it further reduces the chance of human errors and facilitates the work of the operator of drilling apparatus, because in conventional solutions the monitoring of the rise of the water content in the drill cuttings typically requires constant presence and high alertness of the operator of the drilling apparatus during drilling.
  • the basic idea of an embodiment is that automatic determination of water content employs at least one moisture detector. This embodiment has an advantage that in water content detection it is possible to use a commercially available sensor.
  • the basic idea of an embodiment is that excessively aqueous drill cuttings removed from the dust collection system before the dust separator are directed at a distance from the drill hole.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that the excessively aqueous drill cuttings are not allowed to slide back into the drill hole after the drilling ceases, and thus make the edges or walls of the drill hole collapse.
  • the dust collection system or the changer unit comprises a control unit that is arranged to select and change the operating position of the changer unit in accordance with the water content in the drill cuttings.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that it enables automatic control of the operating position without the operator of the drilling apparatus having to participate therein.
  • a changer unit comprises a control part, which is arranged, in the second operating position of the changer unit, in which the drill cuttings are directed away from the dust collection system before the dust separator, to direct the drill cuttings at a distance from the drill hole.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that the aqueous drill cuttings are not allowed to slide back into the drill hole.
  • a suction funnel serves as at least one part of the changer unit framework such that the suction funnel is connected to at least two discharge ducts and inside the suction funnel there is arranged a turning pipe with an opening on its flank, whereby the operating position may be selected by turning the pipe.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that the changer unit may be implemented as a part of the suction funnel, and consequently no separate changer unit is needed.
  • an inlet duct of drill cuttings is a first connecting pipe and a discharge duct of drill cuttings is a second connecting pipe and that these connecting pipes may be mutually moved such that in a first operating position there is formed a continuous duct from the first connecting pipe to the second connecting pipe, and in a second operating position the duct from the first connecting pipe to the second connecting pipe is cut.
  • the changer unit comprises a cylinder by means of which the second connecting pipe may be moved in relation to the first connecting pipe to the first and the second operating positions.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that it provides a reliable and automatically controllable way to move the connecting pipes in relation to one another.
  • the basic idea of an embodiment is that the second connecting pipe is arranged in a slide structure, whereby the second connecting pipe may be moved linearly in relation to the first connecting pipe from the first operating position to the second operating position and vice versa.
  • This embodiment has an advantage that the mutual movement of the connecting pipes is well controllable.
