Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of making excavations in the ground. It relates in particular to a drilling machine equipped with a milling device.
  • diaphragm wall clamshell grab which includes a grab frame at the lower end of which two buckets are mounted.
  • the grab frame includes a mechanism to open and close the buckets.
  • the actuation of the buckets can be achieved using hydraulic actuators.
  • the drilling tool is generally called “hydraulic grab”.
  • a grab frame comprises:
  • the movable member is movable in translation relative to the body along the longitudinal direction.
  • the displacement of the first arm relative to the body can be a rotational movement, a translational movement or a combination of a rotational movement and of a translational movement.
  • the buckets are carried by the frame and by the arms, which allow the opening and the closing of the buckets.
  • the buckets are opened and the grab is dropped into the dig. Then, the buckets are closed in order to collect the cuttings and the grab is pulled up.
  • a disadvantage of the drill bit is that its effectiveness decreases with each release due to the gradual accumulation of cuttings on the impact area, which has the effect of absorbing the impact shock of the drill bit. Also, the drill bit can break the hard ground only a few centimeters. Furthermore, this tooling is very slow because the method is to hit the hard area using the same material handler that allows the excavation, and this without any visibility of what is done, then pick up what has been broken using the grab.
  • the use of a drill bit has other disadvantages, in particular noise pollution and the generation of vibrations.
  • Another technique consists in using a hydromill.
  • the hydromill is equipped with rotatable cutting drums capable of excavating rock.
  • this technique is long to implement and particularly expensive.
  • this technique is sometimes difficult to implement on small-surface construction sites because the installation of the hydromill requires the presence of a grit trap which is particularly bulky.
  • One aim of the invention is to propose a drilling machine having a grab frame making it possible to facilitate the excavation of hard areas during the implementation of a clamshell grab drilling method.
  • the drilling machine according to the invention further includes:
  • the removable milling device can be easily mounted and dismounted, for example to replace the buckets, in particular when it is necessary to excavate a hard area of the ground. Once the hard area has been excavated, the operator dismounts the milling device to replace it with the buckets.
  • the invention makes it possible to dispense with the use of a drill bit or a hydromill to excavate a localized hard area. As explained above, the operator only needs to dismount the buckets and replace them with the removable milling device.
  • the first motor is hydraulic.
  • the support includes at least a first hydraulic junction box connected to the first motor.
  • the drilling machine includes at least one hydraulic line passing longitudinally through the grab frame in order to supply the first motor with hydraulic energy.
  • the first dismountable securing device includes a first part belonging to the body and a second part located on the removable milling device.
  • the first part of the first dismountable securing device is also configured to be connected to a first bucket, and more specifically to a first connection part of the first bucket.
  • the first part of the first dismountable securing device can be used to be fixed at the first bucket to the body or to be fixed at the removable milling device to the body.
  • the drilling machine according to the invention is modular since it can be used as a clamshell grab or milling machine depending on the tooling fixed to the frame.
  • the support includes:
  • the actuation of the actuator device has the effect of moving the first arm relative to the body. This displacement is directed along a direction perpendicular to the first rotation axis of the first mill drum.
  • the actuation of the actuator device makes it possible to deploy the first mill drum laterally relative to the frame.
  • the actuation of the actuator device has the effect of moving the second support portion with the first mill drum relative to the body of the frame.
  • One advantage is to be able to locally increase the length of the trench, considered in a horizontal plane. This also makes it possible to locally and transversely dig in the ground adjacent to the trench being drilled.
  • Another advantage is to be able to bite into the vertical end edge of one or two panels previously existing in the ground.
  • Yet another advantage is to be able to easily make a notched joint in the vertical edge.
  • the movable member is disposed above the first support portion.
  • the first hydraulic junction box is fixed to the second support portion.
  • first pivoting axis is separate and distant from the first rotation axis.
  • first pivoting axis is parallel to the first rotation axis.
  • the movable member is disposed above the first pivoting axis.
  • the retraction of the actuator device has the effect of pivoting the second support portion relative to the first support portion in a direction in which the first mill drum deploys transversely away from the body of the frame.
  • the deployment of the actuator device has the effect of bringing the first mill drum closer to the body of the frame.
  • the second dismountable securing device is located above the first pivoting axis.
  • the first dismountable securing device includes:
  • the first locking device is for example a key which is introduced into an orifice of the first fixing stud, above the plate, to hold the first support portion against the mounting element

  • This pivot link is preferably oriented along a first pivot axis parallel to the first pivoting axis.
  • the first orifice cooperates with the first bucket.
  • the first orifice of the first arm corresponds to the first part of the second dismountable securing device mentioned above.
  • the first arm moves relative to the body, which causes the pivoting of the second support portion relative to the body about the first pivoting axis.
  • the second support portion also pivots relative to the first arm about the first pivot axis.
