Definitions
- the invention concerns a handling device for handling drill string components in respect of a drill rig, which includes a feed beam whereon a feed and rotation device is displaceably supported, and a lifting winch for lifting a first drill string component which is to be threaded to a second drill string component being in a drill string position of the rig.
- the invention also relates to a corresponding method and a rock drill rig equipped with such a handling device.
- Core drilling for exploration purposes is usually performed with rock drill rigs, wherein the drill string components are placed in the active drill string position, lifted up from or lowered down in the drill hole with the aid of a winch.
- the winch wire is fastened to the uppermost drill string component with the aid of a lifting plug.
- tubular drill string components are used.
- the string of tubes is lifted unit by unit, whereby the separate tubes are loosened from each other with the aid of the rotator device of the drill rig in co-operation with a lower tube holder.
- Final loosening of a tube to be taken away from the drill string is today at least partly performed manually by the operators, wherein this handling includes final threading-off and lifting and guiding of the tube to an area of a tube magazine.
- Core drilling is often performed to very great depths, such as for example to drill length between 1000 - 2000 m. Because of the drill bit in operation being subjected to wear, it has to be exchanged relatively often, which results in that the entire drill string has to be lifted out from the drill hole, be dismounted into drill string components, the worn drill bit be removed and be replaced by a new one, whereupon the drill string can again be lowered down into the hole. Thereupon a further distance is drilled until the drill bit has to be exchanged again etc. During the drilling, a flushing liquid swivel is connected to the uppermost end of the drill string for supplying flushing liquid for transporting away rock material having been disintegrated during drilling.

- the guiding gripper is swing drivable between a first swing position at said first position and a second swing position at said second position in order to secure adequate guiding at the respective position.
- the guiding gripper is manoeuvrable between an open and a closed condition through the aid of any one of: an electric motor, a hydraulic motor, a pneumatic motor.
- the guiding beam is pivotally attachable to the drill rig around a first pivot axis such that it is easily adjustable at different operational positions with different feed beam angles of the rig.
- the guiding beam at an outer region is pivotally attachable to a support around a second pivot axis.
- This support could be a support body, a magazine or any other arrangement for handling of components.

- the magazine 6 can be constructed in various manners but is in Fig. 1 exemplified in the form of a generally horizontal table, which is tiltable such that drill string components 8 can be brought to roll towards a swing arm 7 for reception of drill string components 8.
- Fig. 1 is further indicated with a dot interrupted line at 8", a drill string component in a position during a lifting phase which is a slanting position in respect of the feed beam 2.
- This line at 8" in Fig. 1 is intended to illustrate an intermediate position during the lifting phase which is ended by the drill string component being in a position which is co-axial with an active drill string position of the rock drill rig.
- Lifting is performed with the aid of a lifting plug (25 see below) being threaded-in uppermost on the drill string component.
- the lifting plug is during this process in turn connected to a (not shown) lifting wire, which passes over a wire wheel (not shown) uppermost on the feed beam and with its second part extends essentially in parallel to the feed beam 2 to the lifting winch (not shown) being arranged in the region of the power and drive aggregate 3.
