Definitions

  • reversible percussion devices which have a housing pointed at its one side and accommodating a percussor, said percussor forming front and rear variable volume, working chambers.
  • the percussor Under the action of compressed air supplied into the chambers, the percussor reciprocates and delivers percussions upon the housing, thus making drives the latter move in the ground.
  • Compressed air is supplied into the chambers along an air-supplying, stepped bushing which interacts with the percutor in the course of movement of the latter and is fixed in the rear portion of the housing by means of a nut so that it can displace in the latter in the axial direction.
  • the compressed air is delivered into the front chamber from the rear one through ports provided in the tail portion of the percussor.
  • an air-supplying bushing has two rows of chamfered projections provided on the outer surface of a step of a smaller diameter, and a casing mounted between said projections, is rigidly secured to the tail portion of a housing and, during the reversing of the device, movement alternately interacts at its butt ends having chamfered projections cooperating with the rows of the projections provided on the airsupplying bushing to cause the latter displace in an axial direction from one position into another.
  • an axial or bore space accommodating an enlarged step 7 of a greater diameter of an air-supplying or control bushing 7.
  • the walls of the percussor 2 are provided with ports 8 used to intercommunicate the chambers 5 and 6 during a work and/or return stroke.
  • the bushing 7 is mounted for axial movement a casing or sleeve 9 so that the bushing can move in the axial direction, the casing 9 being rigidly fixed in the housing 1 by means of a butt or rear end flange 9.
  • the device includes a compression spring 10 normally thrusting between the enlarged step 7 of a greater diameter of the bushing 7 and the casing flange 9.
  • a hose 11 used to supply compressed air from a compressor, (not shown) and the fllange 9' of the casing 9 is provided with apertures 12 used to exhaust the air used.
  • the device functions as follows:
  • the percussor 2 moves to the left, i.e. in the direction of the front chamber 5 (to the position shown in FIG. 1), and delivers a percussion or impact upon the inner surface of the housing 1, as a result of which the housing 1 moves forward and penetrates into the ground.
  • the ports 8 communicating the front chamber 5 (through the intermediary of the chamber 6, duct 19 and hose 11) with a source of compressed air are opened at a predetermined distance from the extreme left position of the percussor 2.
  • the percutor 2 Due to its jumping-away on reaction impact and the built-up of pressure of the air in the chamber 5, the percutor 2 starts moving in the reverse direction since its effective, working area at the side of the chamber 5 is .greater than the effective-working area at the opposite side of the chamber 6 which is constantly communicated with the source of the compressed air.
  • the back-blow force (the reacting force) arising during the device operation and acting in the direction opposite to that of the useful movement of the device, is balanced by the forces of friction arising between the housing 1 and the ground.
  • the percussor 2 during its reverse movement reaches the flange 9" of the casing 9 and delivers a rearwardly directed percussion upon the latter, as a result of which the housing moves rearwardly.
  • the reacting force acting upon the housing 1 in the direction opposite to that of the useful movement is balanced by the forces of friction arising between the ground and the housing 1.
  • a reversible percussion device comprising a housreciprocation in the space in the latter under the action of the compressed air supplied alternately into said chambers; a stepped air-supplying bushing mounted in said housing so that it can displace in the axial direction and interacts through a step of a larger diameter with said percussor in the course of movement; said bushing having two rows of chamfered projections provided on the outer surface of a smaller diameter; a casing mounted on the step of a smaller diameter of said airsupplying bushing between said rows of the projections and rigidly secured to said housing; said casing having chamfered projections provided at the butt ends thereof and interacting during the reversing of the device movement the respective rows of the projec tions provided on said bushing.
  • a reversible percussion device including a spring normally reacting between said casing and the step of a larger diameter of said air-supplying bushing for effecting axial displacement of said bushing upon discontinuation of the supply of the compressed air into the chambers of the device.
  • a reversible percussion device in which the interacting butt ends of the projections of said air-supplying bushing and said casing are formed as screw surfaces.
