Teknisk bakarund Vid bergborrning kan stenar och sandpartiklar, stendamm, tvingas ut ur det borrade hglet och ferorenar omgivningen. Anstrangningar har gjorts fOr att tata um-Met narmast det borrade hglet med hjalp av olika typer av tatande utrustning. Det ar jamfOrelsevis Iatt att tata pa ett avstgnd frgn borren men det ar mer utmanande att tata i narheten av borrstangen. Typiskt har borrkronan en stOrre diameter an borrstangen och borren roterar nar man borrar. Tatningsutrustningen mgste alltsa kunna ta emot och genomtrangas av borrkronan och anda kunna ge god tatning nar den inrymmer den smalare borrstangen. Technical baking round When rock drilling, stones and sand particles, rock dust, can be forced out of the drilled hole and pollute the surroundings. Efforts have been made to tat um-Met closest to the drilled hole with the help of different types of tat equipment. It is generally easy to take at a distance from the drill, but it is more challenging to take near the drill rod. Typically, the drill bit has a larger diameter than the drill rod and the drill rotates when drilling. The sealing equipment must therefore be able to receive and be penetrated by the drill bit and the spirit can give a good seal when it houses the narrower drill rod.

Traditionellt har den utrustning som har anvants fOr aft tata omrgdet narmast borren varit en elastisk skiva med en Oppning. Mest anvand ar en gummiskiva med en tjocklek pa ungefar 20 mm och en diameter pa ungefar 300 mm. Skivan har en centralt anordnad Oppning for vilken diametern ar dimensionerad efter borrstgngen. En sgdan skiva ger tillracklig tatning men dess livslangd ar mycket kort. Vanligtvis maste en sgdan skiva bytas ut efter bara en eller tvg dagar av anvandning. De korta bytesintervallen ar kostsamma och otillfredsstallande. Traditionally, the equipment that has been used to close the area closest to the drill has been an elastic disc with an opening. The most commonly used is a rubber disc with a thickness of about 20 mm and a diameter of about 300 mm. The disc has a centrally arranged opening for which the diameter is dimensioned after the drilling step. Such a disc provides sufficient sealing but its service life is very short. Usually such a disc must be replaced after only one or two days of use. The short replacement intervals are costly and unsatisfactory.

US3800890 beskriver en komplex tatning mellan tva plastskivor. Var och en av dessa skivor innefattar en central Oppning och slitsar riktade axiellt ut frgn mitten av Oppningen. En av skivorna roterar medan den andra ar fast.

FOljaktligen har denna tatning inte en patagligt langre livslangd och den är dyrare att tillverka. US3800890 describes a complex seal between two plastic sheets. Each of these discs includes a central aperture and slots axially directed from the center of the aperture. One of the discs rotates while the other is fixed. The plastic discs that form the seal were subjected to severe conditions during a drilling 11/7/2013 9:49 AM \\ smimefilewcOlMork ngCop es $ 1119 \ 131021_21361476_Applicatiortext_DET 31 0282 doc 2 drilling. Consequently, this seal does not have a ridiculously long lifespan and is more expensive to manufacture.

GB1428322 beskriver ett tatningsarrangemang bestaende av en ring som har ett antal fjadrande tungor som stacker sig radiellt mat. Tungorna ar snedstallda i fOrhallande till planet av den yttre ringen. FOljaktligen finns det en fri luftpassage genom tatningen och saledes en stor risk fOr att damm kan komma ut genom tatningen och darigenom fororena miljOn nara borren. GB1428322 describes a sealing arrangement consisting of a ring having a number of resilient tongues stacking radially. The tongues are inclined in relation to the plane of the outer ring. Consequently, there is a free air passage through the seal and thus a great risk that dust can come out through the seal and thereby contaminate the environment near the drill.

FOljaktligen finns det ett behov av en forbattrad dammkontrollerande tatning anpassad for anvandning fOr bergborrning. Consequently, there is a need for an improved dust control seal adapted for use in rock drilling.

Sammanfattning av upofinninoen FOreliggande uppfinning syftar generellt till att eliminera eller atminstone minska de ovan diskuterade problemen samt andra problem som är kanda inom tekniken. Detta Ors med en dammkontrollerande tatning i enlighet med de bifogade kraven.

As described herein, the term "dust control seal" refers to a device for preventing dust from entering the vicinity of the drill rod of a rock drill. Typically, the dust control seal is part of a larger seal arrangement to prevent dust from entering the major, near a rock drilling unit. In addition, such a seal typically has the appearance of a circular disc with a centrally located circular opening. 2013-11-07 9 49 \ lsrrilmefilewc0lMorkingCopiesV19 \ 2013102121061476_Apoicatientext_DE '3 0282.3.dec 3 As described herein, the term "elastically cohesive sheet construction" refers to a flat construction made of a single elastic material in one piece.

Sasom beskrivs hari avser uttrycket "ett flertal fjadrande tungor" en grupp av minst tvi, men fOretradesvis minst fem fjadrande tungor. Tungorna ar utformade i ett stycke med resten av skivkonstruktionen och därför naturligtvis gjorda av elastiska material som resten av den elastiska sammanhangande skivkonstruktionen. Sardraget att namnda flertal fjadrande tungor är "intill varandra anordnade i forhallande till varandra" an avsett aft betyda aft tungorna är sa tatt anordnade i ferhallande till varandra aft de tillsammans bildar en skivkonstruktion med inget Oppet utrymme utom for namnda cirkulara Oppning. Nan en lamplig borrsting an inrymd i Oppningen, bildas en tat fOrslutning vilket forhindrar stendamm fran aft komma ut in i den nara omgivningen. As described herein, the term "plurality of resilient tongues" refers to a group of at least two, but preferably at least five resilient tongues. The tongues are formed in one piece with the rest of the disc construction and therefore of course made of elastic materials like the rest of the elastic continuous disc construction. The feature that said plurality of resilient tongues are "arranged next to each other in relation to each other" is intended to mean that the tongues are so arranged arranged in relation to each other that together they form a disc construction with no open space except for said circular opening. When a suitable drilling rig is housed in the opening, a tight closure is formed, which prevents rock dust from escaping into the immediate vicinity.

I en fOredragen utfOringsform finns det spar i nagra av de fjadrande tungorna langs namnda vagg. In a preferred embodiment, there are grooves in some of the resilient tongues along said cradle.

I en annu mera fOredragen utfOringsform finns det spar i alla de fjadrande tungor pa bida sidor langs namnda vagg. In an even more preferred embodiment, there are grooves in all the resilient tongues on both sides along the said cradle.

I en fOredragen utfOringsform tillverkas den elastiska sammanhangande skivkonstruktionen av material vald fran gruppen av polyuretan och termoplastiska elastomerer (TPE). Termoplastiska elastomerer, eller termoplastgummin, an en klass av sampolymerer eller en fysisk blandning av polymerer, som bestir av material med bade termoplastiska och elastomera egenskaper. Typiska och kommersiellt tillgangliga exempel pa TPE-material an styrenblocksampolymerer, polyolefinblandningar, elastiska legeringar (TPE-v eller TPV), termoplastiska polyuretaner, termoplastiska sampolyester och termoplastiska polyamider. For aft kvalificera sig som en termoplastisk elastomerer maste ett material ha tre vasentliga egenskaper. De miste kunna strackas till mittliga tojningar och, vid avlagsnande av pifrestningen, kunna itervanda till nagot nara den ursprungliga formen. De maste vara bearbetbara i smalt tillstind vid fOrhOjda temperaturer. Slutligen far de inte ha betydande krypning. In a preferred embodiment, the elastic cohesive sheet construction is made of materials selected from the group of polyurethane and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). Thermoplastic elastomers, or thermoplastic rubbers, are a class of copolymers or a physical mixture of polymers, consisting of materials having both thermoplastic and elastomeric properties. Typical and commercially available examples of TPE materials such as styrene block copolymers, polyolefin blends, elastic alloys (TPE-v or TPV), thermoplastic polyurethanes, thermoplastic copolyester and thermoplastic polyamides. In order to qualify as a thermoplastic elastomer, a material must have three essential properties. The lost ones can be stretched to medium stretches and, when removing the whipping cream, can be used to something close to the original shape. They must be machinable in a narrow condition at elevated temperatures. Finally, they must not have significant creep.

I en fOredragen utfOringsform ligger tjockleken hos den elastiska sammanhangande skivkonstruktionen inom omradet av 10 till 40 mm. In a preferred embodiment, the thickness of the elastic continuous sheet construction is in the range of 10 to 40 mm.

The sealant has an Okad lifelong comparison with sealants according to the state of the art. In addition, the dust control seal is relatively simple to manufacture. Both of these factors lead to reduced costs for the end user.

Foreliggande uppfinning ar baserad pa iden att tillhandahalla en dammkontrollerande tatning dar materialet som utsatts for pafrestning nar borren anvands, dvs. borsten, ar tillrackligt flexibelt fOr aft inte brytas men anda motstandskraftigt mot aft deformeras nar borrkronan tranger igenom den dammkontrollerande tatningen eller nar stangen roteras och fors upp och ner under borrning. Samtidigt maste den dammkontrollerande tatningen tillhandahalla ett tillrackligt solitt MI* mot stendamm vid borrning. The present invention is based on the idea of providing a dust control seal where the material subjected to stress when the drill is used, i.e. the brush, is sufficiently flexible so as not to break, but the spirit is strongly deformed when the drill bit penetrates the dust-controlling seal or when the rod is rotated and moved up and down during drilling. At the same time, the dust-controlling seal must provide a sufficiently solid MI * against rock dust when drilling.

Eftersom stangen hos borren har en mindre diameter an borrkronan kravs det all en Oppning hos den dammkontrollerande tatningen, van i skaftet ska inrymmas under borrning, har en mindre diameter an borrkronan. FOljaktligen maste borren tvingas genom den dammkontrollerande tatningen, vilket leder till aft en del av den dammkontrollerande tatningen utsatts for mycket pafrestning medan borrkronan tvingas genom. Genom aft anvanda fjadrande tungor som organ for aft fOrhindra stendamm fran aft tryckas ut ur borrhalet kan den dammkontrollerande tatningen vara taligare mot sedan pafrestning. Since the rod of the drill has a smaller diameter than the drill bit, all an opening of the dust controlling seal is required, the vane of the shaft must be accommodated during drilling, has a smaller diameter than the drill bit. Consequently, the drill must be forced through the dust-controlling seal, which leads to a part of the dust-controlling seal being subjected to too much stress while the drill bit is forced through. By often using resilient tongues as a means of preventing rock dust from being pushed out of the drill tail, the dust-controlling seal can be more numerous against subsequent drilling.

Vidare, eftersom den dammkontrollerande tatningen maste passa tatt runt stangen under borrning, for att forhindra att stendamm trycks ut ur borrhalet, kan den dammkontrollerande tatningen behtiva ingripa med stangen under borrning. Anvandning av intill varandra anordnade fjadrande tungor ar ett satt aft erhalla ett sadan nadvandig tat passform. Furthermore, since the dust control seal must fit the rod around the rod during drilling, to prevent rock dust from being pushed out of the drill tail, the dust control seal may intervene with the rod during drilling. The use of resiliently arranged resilient tongues is a way of obtaining such a suitable fit.

Slutligen, eftersom den dammkontrollerande tatningen enligt fOreliggande uppfinning an utformade i ett stycke ar tillverkningsprocessen relativt enkel och okomplicerad. Finally, since the dust control seal of the present invention is integrally formed, the manufacturing process is relatively simple and straightforward.

En sadan dammkontrollerande tatningen 100 visas i figur 1 och 2. Den bestar av ett elastiskt sammanhangande skivkonstruktion 101 med en byre yta 102 och en undre yta 104.

Kanten visad i figurerna är cirkular men den elastiska sammanhangande skivkonstruktionen 101 kan ha godtycklig form sa lange som den passar med bergborrenheter som skall anvandas. Den dammkontrollerande tatningen har typiskt en definierad tjocklek, t. Tjockleken "t" är typiskt inom omradet av 10 till 40 mm. Varden kir "t" under 10 mm kan leda till minskad livslangd. Varden Over mm kan leda till minskad elasticitet och mindre bra tatningsegenskaper. Such a dust controlling seal 100 is shown in Figures 1 and 2. It consists of an elastically cohesive disc structure 101 with an upper surface 102 and a lower surface 104. The structure is formed in a single, integral piece. Typically, the elastic cohesive sheet construction is made of polyurethane or a thermoplastic elastomer. 2013-11-07 9.49 0sm mefilewcOlMorkingCopies $ \ 119120131021_21061476_Applicationtext_DET.310232.3.doc 6 The structure 101 is surrounded by an edge 110. used. The dust controlling seal typically has a defined thickness, t. The thickness "t" is typically in the range of 10 to 40 mm. The value kir "t" below 10 mm can lead to reduced service life. The value Over mm can lead to reduced elasticity and less good sealing properties.

Det finns en Oppning 106 i den elastiska sammanhangande skivkonstruktionen frail den Ovre 102 till den nedre ytan 104. Oppningen avgransas av en vagg 108. Det finns ett flertal fjadrande tungor 112a-e som skjuter ut fran vaggen 108 och de yttre kanterna 114a-e av dessa tungor 112a-e avgransar tillsammans en cirkular Oppning. Oppningen är anpassad fOr aft inrymma en borrstang. Nar en borr tranger igenom den dammkontrollerande tatningen 100, bOjs de fjadrande tungor 112a-e vilket gor aft borren kan passera. Nar borren har passerat genom den dammkontrollerande tatningen 100 och ar redo aft medverka i en borrningsoperation sá bOjs de fjadrande tungor 112a-e tillbaka och ytterkanterna 114a-e avgransar pa nytt den cirkulara Oppningen 116. There is an opening 106 in the resiliently connected disc structure from the upper 102 to the lower surface 104. The opening is defined by a cradle 108. There are a plurality of resilient tongues 112a-e projecting from the cradle 108 and the outer edges 114a-e of these tongues 112a-e together define a circular opening. The opening is adapted to accommodate a drill rod. When a drill penetrates the dust controlling seal 100, the resilient tongues 112a-e bend, causing the drill to pass. When the drill has passed through the dust control seal 100 and is ready to participate in a drilling operation, the resilient tongues 112a-e bend back and the outer edges 114a-e again delimit the circular opening 116.

Typiskt sett kan de fjadrande tungorna 112a-e innefatta spar 126 intill vaggen 108. I en fbredragen utforingsform har samtliga fjadrande tungor 112a-e ett sadant spar 126 pa den Ovre 128 eller nedre 130 sidan.
