Abstract

The present invention relates to a drill for making a partially tapered bore hole in soil covering a hardpan layer. The drill consists of a rotatable drivable unit which is provided with a carrying structure and a large number of cutting elements carried by the carrying structure. The large number of cutting elements are placed along a line that extends significantly diagonally and outward from the axis of the rotatable, operable unit. Further, the lower ends of the cutting elements are placed in the radial inner section in a flat surface transversely relative to the rotation axis of the rotatable drivable unit. On the other hand, the lower ends of the cutting elements are placed in the outer diagonal part in a surface tapering downward and having a symmetrical axis corresponding to the spindle of the rotatable and operable unit. The lower ends of the cutting elements during rotation can form a truncated cone surface.

By connecting the first ends You provide pulleys at the TTY balance frame preferably the lower end segments for guiding the rope or chain. In principle only one pair of ropes can be used for fixing to a particular rotational transformer.

0 when the drill is ready to run; The drill is lowered at a desired drilling position. The balancing mechanism enables the drill to have a desired orientation; any; With its central axis parallel to the direction of gravity. And therefore; The direction of the drill is fixed by the effect of the locking mechanism “that is, by reserving any sliding of the chains or ropes on the pulleys Lay 751. The direction of the drill is Bul The drill is ready i) The hole drilling the hole.

Vo It should also be noted that the drill frame can be used not only with drills under Clause 0 but more generally; The dead auger has a large number of holes to dig into the soil; It includes a large number of rotatable and operable units and olay holder units while the frame includes a pair of legs; Und candy extended members; Each leg bears at least a corresponding rig in which the longitudinal axes of the legs have an adjustable angle.

Ya — - Preferably » a pair of legs oriented more transversely so that they are transverse to the digging direction of the rotary and operable drilling rigs. voluntarily The legs are movable around a pivot relative to a main frame part. In addition, it is preferable for the pair of legs to form a frame part in the form of a letter 7. It is best to place the pair of legs so that they are very similar to the direction of movement of the drilling frame. as described above; A large number of rotatable and operable drilling rig load-bearing pairs can be provided.
