1 16 Claims. This invention relates to mobiledrilling apparatus and more particularly to anim-proved mobile drilling apparatus especially designed for use in drilling upright'roof holesi n underground mines: or tunnels, for receiving roof anchors.
In mines or tunnels where roof control is eifiected' by internal suspension type roof anchors which are set in the roof strata, upright holes are: usually drilled in the roof for receiving the anchors. In underground mines or tunnels where head room is relatively low, roof holedrills of known types are too-great in length to enable roof drilling in the restricted spaces encountered, and particularly when conventional stoper type rock drills are employedfior' drilling the roof holes the head room mustbe relatively high to accommodatethe drills. In roofdrills of other" known types the drills are relatively heavy and complicated and while certain types may operate where relatively low headroom is present they are relatively" expensive and usual ly require more: than one operator; thereby increasing the cost" of roof control. The present invention contemplates improvements over suchlmown'ztypes of roof? hole drills in that a relatively simple: and compact drill structure-is pro-- vided which is readily mobile and which may loc operated by a single. operator; and: due to its'ver tical'compactnessi may drill upright roof holes of substantial depth mines or tunnels having lbwheadi room. Thus the cost of: drilling roof holes in. low coal or in. tunnels: havinglovv' head room may be maintained at a The drill or the present invention; is oi.v the priedmainc impact type: mounted on; a; moh'ile base roof strata of underigromid mines or tunnels.
Yeti anothert'ohjeot is'to provide an: improved drilling" apparatus oftheipn'eumatio impact-type which isextremelyvertioallivfcompact? and which has? a relatively long range: ofvertical feed for' its height thereby enabling? use of the 2 mine pessagewaysor tunnels having'head room ofvarying heights. A further object is to provide arr ir'np'roved mobile mounting for a pneu matically fed hammer drill of comparatively 1 short length and having an auxiliary feeding means whereby the feeding travel of the drill may be materially lengthened; A still further object is to provide" an improved drilling a'p'pa ratus having a pair of feeding devices which may act cumulatively to provide a relatively long feeding travel of the drilling implement. Still another object is to" provide anv improved rock drill feeding mechanism. of the pressure fluid actuated cylinder and piston type-wherein a plurality of coacting cylinder and piston devices, arranged and mounted in a novel mannor, are employed.- A further objectis to pro= vlde: improved" reels drill feeding mechanism of the: n'lulti-eyli nder'type wherein the feed cylinders' may cooperate to feed the drilling tool toward the work; thereby cumulatively to provide arelatively long feeding" travel. Still another object is to provide an improved hammer rock drill of the wheel mounted stoper type.

The handle may be grasped by the operator for tilting the carriage frame into-its transport position (as shown in dotted lines-in Fig. 2) and for moving the carriage over the ground or floor in an obvious manner. The outer end of the tubular side portion 3 of the carriage frame has a detachable connection |5 with an air supply hose i6 and the side frame due to its tubular construction provides a constant pressure chamber for the pressure fluid supplied to the apparatus, to reduce pressure fluctuations in the air line. i
In this illustrative construction, as shown in Figs. 1 and 6, arranged centrally between the ends of the cross bar 8 and located between spaced collars I8 welded to the bar is a pivoted support orclamp l9 which surrounds and is pivotally mounted on the cross bar. One of the collars, as shown in Fig. 7, has a threaded boss 26 for receiving a set screw 2| provided with a pivoted operating handle 22. This set screw acts on a clamping block 23 mounted in a recess 24 in the collar and this block has its inner gripping face engageable with a plane face 25 of a flange 26 on the clamp. The collars i8 have spaced abutment lugs 25 and 29 engageable with a stop pin 36 carried by the clamp for limiting the piv-:
otal movement of the support I9 about the axis of the cross bar as later explained. By tightening the set screw 2| the block 23 may be brought into gripping engagement with the plane face 25 of the clamp for locking the latter in its desired position of adjustment. The clamp-frame has a longitudinal bore 3| which receives a longitudinal bolt 32 having its head 33 engaging the outer surface of a swivel plate 34. The clamp i9 has a plane face 35 with which the inner face 36 of the swivel plate 34 is engageable, and a nut 3? threaded on the bolt, when tightened, moves the faces 35 and 38 into tight frictional engagement to lock the swivel plate 34 in adjusted position about the longitudinal axis of the bolt 32. When the pivoted clamp or support 19 is in its position shown in Fig. 5, with the stop pin 33 engaging the abutment lugs 28 on the spaced collars I8 and with the gripping block 23 set in gripping position, the swivel plate 34 is in the vertical position shown; When the bolt 32 is loosened the swivel plate 34 may be swung in transverse planes about the bolt axis relative tothe clamp I9.
The swivel plate 34 has a depending frame portion 39 provided with a step-like bottom portion 45 to which the lower end of a vertical pneumatic feed cylinder 4| is secured, as by welding or otherwise, at 42. Contained in this upright cylinder is a reciprocable feed piston 43 having its piston rod 44 extending upwardly through a packed top head 45 of the cylinder,
and this piston rod is rigidly secured at 46 to a cross plate or yoke d1 (Figs. 4 and 5). The cross plate or yoke t! is connected by side rods 48 which extend downwardly in parallelism along the sides of the feed cylinder 4| and which are secured at 29 to lateral lugs 59 integral with a sliding frame or cross head'iil guided on the exterior periphery'of the feed cylinder 4|. Secured to the sliding frame 5| is a depending frame portion 53 having a bottom stirrup 54 to which the lower end of a vertical piston rod 55 is rigidly secured at 56. This piston rod extends upwardly through a packed lower head 5'! of a rec procablewertical pneumatic feed cylinder 58 and secured to the upper end of the piston rod is a feed piston 59 contained in the reciprocable feed cylinder. During feed the stirrup 54 has a bottom surface 60 adapted to rest upon the floor. or ground surface when the feed piston 43 is in lowered position as shown in Fig. 5. The cylin-' der 58 is arranged in parallel side by side relation with the cylinder 4!, and the cylinder 58 has an upper head- 53 provided with a lateral bracket 54 herein desirably formed integral with a front chuck housing of a conventional pneumatic hammer drilling tool generally designated '56. This drilling tool is herein arranged in parallel side by side relation with the feed cylinder 58 and includes a conventional pressure fluid actuated hammer motor having a cylinder 67 secured to the chuck housing and containing a usual hammer piston (not shown) for percuss-ively actuating a drill steel 68. The drill steel 68 has its shank receivable in a conventional chuck within the chuck housing 65 and the upper end of the steel carries a conventional drill bit 69. The motor cylinder has a rear head block 10 secured thereto and this block carries a conventional throttle valve mechanism H which is adapted to control fluid flow to the drilling motor and to the two feed cylinders 4| and 58. Projecing laterally from the motor cylinder as shown in Fig. 3, is a handle 72 having a grasping portioni3 which carries a conventional feed vent valve mechan sm 14 which is adapted to regulate the feeding pressure in both feed cylinders. A sup airmen plypipe 76. has a lateral connection-with thetubul'ar side frame portion. 3: of the carriage whereby fluid may be conducted from the-constaut. pressure chamber tea pipe L l which has a detachable connection at 181 with ona'end of a conventional line oils]: or: lubricator; 19L. Detach:- abIy connected at: at with the: opposite; endot the: line oiler' is an elbow 81 whichhas'oonnection at. 82. to a flexible hose 8.3 which leads to the: inlet chamber of the throttle valve mechanism ll inia well-known manner. The throttle; valve: mechanism controls the flow of pressure fluid through apassage 84 (Fig;v 5 which: communicates with the upper end of: the feed. cylinder 58 above the piston 59. The throttle valve mechanism: also controls the now of fluid through a passage (not shown) in the handle: it which is connected. by a flexible hose 85 to a. passage 86: (Fig; 5) inthe step-portion 4B of the swivel plate 34,. and: the passage 813 communicates directly with they lower" end. of the cylinder '11 beneath the piston 43 as shownin Fig. 5. Thus; the throttle valve mocha: nisnr H may control the fluid supply to bothv feed devices: to effect feed and the vent valve mechanism. 13. may effect venting, of both feedingdevioes to regulate the feeding pressure;
When the set screw 2| is loosened to effect release of the clamp block: 23- the pivoted. support or clamp is may be swung about the longitudinal axis. of the crossbar 8 to locatewthe drilling: tool in the desired position, and during, transport-o1 the apparatus the stop pin 39: onthe. clamp engages the abutment lugs 29 on the collars tit to locate the drilling tool inits transport position. as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 2. When thev bolt at is loosened the swivel plate 35 may be turned about an axis at right angles tothelongitudinal: axis of the cross bar tov locate-the frame. 39- and. drilling tool inthe desired lateral tilted position relative to the carriage frame, as indi catedin dotted lines. in Fig. 3-, and the bolt 32 may thereafter be tightened and the gripping block 23 be set to secure.- the parts firmly in adjusted position. The drilling: tool may be swung horizontally about either of the vertical axes of the parallel feeding devioes;. a-ndtoaccomplish' this the operator may grasp the handle '22 toeffectswinging of. the tool. with the: cylinder 53. about the axis of the piston. rod-Biandi with the frame 58 about the axis: of the-feed. cylinder at; The handle 52' may also: begrasped-by the operator to hold the drilling tool steady during the drilling operation By arranging the: feed cylinders.- ll and and the; drilling. took in the manner disclosed extreme: vertical, compactness is; attained while by concurrently operating-the feeddevices: a oumuiativefeed of. relativelygreat length may be provided. Byv providing. thetcar riage frame with an open; side, theoperati'on' of the tool. is facilitated, particularly the- 0p.- erator is kneeling on the floor. minesor'tunnel's having low head room. v The general mode-cf useof' the improved drill-'- ing apparatus is as follows: 1
During transport of the apparatus about the mine. or tunnel, the pivoted clamp-or support !9 isswung relative to the. cross bar 8' into the: position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2:,. with the feeding means and the drilling. tool in SllbStBflI- tia-lly horizontal, lowered; positions on the cart-- riage, and the. operator may hold; the" carriage frame in raised. position from: the-floor-by grasp-'- ing; theihandlei i. or: the tubular sideframe. 3- of the: carriage so:- thatillhfi apparatusamaybe rolled along the: floor on ground surface; Thus;
grasping the-handle lflorlthe tubular side; frame ofthe carriage: the drilling: apparatus may be readily movedfrom place to place by the operator even when: the 'headiroom is relatively low; When it is desired to" drill an uprightv holev in the. roof strata the clamp 23 may be released and the clamp or support I 9 may be swung-about its pivot. on the cross bar 3 until the stop. pin 30 on the cl'ampengages' the collar-lugs 28 on'the cross bar, and thereafter the clamp may be tight-.- ened: to secure the clamp firmly to the cross bar. By" loosening the clamping bolt 32 the swivel plate 34 may be swung: in transverse planes about the. bolt'ax-is to locate. the drilling tool in the desired lateral position,. either in a vertical position or in positions inclined with respect to the vertical'as desired, and thereafter the bolt 32' may betightened to. lock the parts firmly in position. When the drilling tool is. in the vertical drilling position shown in full lines in Figs. 2 and 3; the sliding frame 5| may be lowered relative to. the cylinder t l to'bring the bottom surface $0.01? the stirrup 5 into engagement with. the ground surface: or" floor as shownv in'Figs. 5 and 9. The shank of the drill. steel 68- may then be inserted in the chuck of. the drilling tool with the drill bit fial'ocated just: below the roof level as shown in Fllgad when the apparatus is operating under low head room. The fluid. supply hose. it, which to any suitable source of fluid under: pres sure, may'then be attached by the connection l5' to the outer end the: tubular side frame 3' of the carriage, and. the throttle valve mechanism. H of the. drilling tool: may then be. manipulated to effect fluid. supply to the hammer motor to cause percussive actuation of the drill: steel '58; When the parts are in the position shown in Fig. 5; with both feeding means. fully collapsed as shown, the throttlevalve mechanism 1! may be positioned. tdeffect fluid supply through the passage 8* to the feed; cylinder 5.& and concurrently through. the. passage; in the handle l2 and the hose connection (iii to the feed. cylinder: M. pressure fluid-flowing tothe feed cylinder 48- above: thestationary piston 59 will eflect move ment of the cylinder upwardly moving the drill-- tool therewith. thereby to feed the drill steel up toward: the roof,. and as the drill bit 69 fed: upwardly and as the drill steel' is; percussively actuated, vertical hole: is drilled in'the. roof stratazas shown: Fig. 9. If the deeper holesis desired under the low head: roomv shown the feed.- ingmeans: may be retracted and a. longer'drill steel. may be substituted: for the one shown. When the head room is substantially higher as shown in. Fig 8;, and the: feed: cylinder Eili's. fully extended, the pressure fluid. flowing to vthe'sstastianary feed cylinder ii below the feed 'pistorr id wiili movethe: latter upwardly in the: cylinder continuingv the feeding of the. drillbit upwardly as the hole-deepens. Asthefeed piston it: moves upwardly the feeding device 58,. 5'9, together with the drilling tool, move upwardly therewith and at that time the stirrup 54=-no longer rests on the ground surface or floor; The sliding guide frame 58- as it moves along the feed cy rider -iprovides an adequate guide for the drilling tool at this time. In Fig; 8, both feeding means are shown in fully extended position.
Earring: the. drilling operation the operator may the handle portion. of the" handle. l'2i to i1oid-.-tlie drilling tool; steady;. and prior to the starting. of-the: hole the: operator: may swingthe drilling toolzlaterally into different angular-post tions about the: parallel axes of the feed cylinders H and 58, as shown in full and dotted lines in Fig. 1, to obtain the desired tool location. As the drill bit 69 is fed upwardly toward the work during the drilling operation the vent valve mechan sm 74 may be operated to vent fluid from the feed cylinders thereby to regulate the feeding pressure. When it is desired fully to retract the feeding means the throttle valve mechanism 1| may be positioned to cut off the fluid supply to the feed cylinders and the latter may be vented to atmosphere. The two feeding devices, as above described, act cumulatively to effect a long feeding travel of the drill bit, but yet may be collapsed to provide an extremely vertically compact structure well adapted to conditions where the head room is low. Evidently, when upright holes in the roof of greater depth than the height of the mine or tunnel are desiredit will be necessary to use sectional drill steel in a well-known manner.
As a result of this invention an improved mobile drilling apparatus is provided which may be readily moved about a mine passageway or tunnel and may be quickly set up into and firmly supported in drilling position. By the provision of the novel feeding structure disclosed, an extremely vertically compact drill is provided especially designed for use in drilling upright anchor holes in the roof strata of a mine passageway or tunnel having relatively low head room. The drilling apparatus is not only readily mobile and extremely vertically compact but is also simple and rugged in design, well adapted to the purpose for which it is intended. By the provision of the primary and secondary feeding means arranged and mounted in the compact manner disclosed a relatively long feeding travel of the drilling tool is attained. The drill structure, due to the novel compact relationship of the two feeding means and the drilling tool, is of no greater height than a standard single feed type hand-held stoper drill which has not more than one-half of the feeding travel of the drill of the present invention. The novel wheeled carriage for the drilling tool provides a stable support for the drilling tool during the drilling operation thereby substantially relieving the operator of the necessity of manually supporting the drill and due to its extremely light weight and compact arrangement the carriage may be readily moved through the restricted spaces encountered in an underground mine or tunnel. These and other manners of use and advantages of the invention will be clearly apparent to those skilled in the art.
While there is in this application specifically described one form which the invention may assume in practice, it will be understood that this form of the same is shown for purposes of illustration and that the invention may be modified and embodied in various other forms without departing from its spirit or the scope of the appended claims.
