  • the present invention employs cutting head 12 to sink the vertical shaft.
  • Cutting head 12 is comprised of a section of casing or tubing 14, similar to that used to line the vertical shaft as it is sunk.
  • An annular cutting bit 16 may incorporate any commonly available rotary cutter construction suitable for the type of soil into which the vertical shaft is being sunk.

  • Such positional corrections include corrections to line which insure that the machine and the shaft are located at the desired location on the ground, for example, with the axis of the shaft in alignment with the surveyed center of the shaft.
  • the horizontal correction of the cylinders may also assist in corrections to plumb which insure that the machine, and hence the shaft sunk thereby, has the desired degree of verticality.
  • FIG. 4 shows the use of four such rods in connection with cylinder 62.
  • Plate 65 having four slots 67 mating with threaded rods 63 is placed over the threaded rods and retained thereon by nuts 69.
  • Gudgeon 71 mounted on the end of hydraulic cylinder 62 fits over anchor post 73 mounted on plate 65 to join the hydraulic cylinder to the concrete pad.
  • hydraulic cylinders 64, 66, and 68 are anchored in concrete pad 24 in a manner similar to that described in detail in connection with hydraulic cylinder 62 as shown in FIG. 2.
  • nuts 69 on threaded rods 63 By loosening nuts 69 on threaded rods 63, the position of the hydraulic cylinders on concrete anchor pad 24 and hence the position of cutting head 12 in tubular liner 22 may be altered to correct locational or other errors.
  • lower clamping ring 40 and cutting head 12 are rotated in the counter-clockwise direction when viewed as in FIG. 2.
  • only one of cylinders 62 and 64 and one of cylinders 66 and 68 may be utilized or, in some cases, only a single cylinder or one pair of cylinders 62 and 64 or 66 and 68 may be employed.
  • the hydraulic cylinders may be single or double acting, as desired.
  • a second, or upper, clamping ring 70 mounted above clamping ring 40, also engages the portion of cutting head casing 14 which extends above guide collar 20, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • Upper clamping ring 70 may be similar in construction to lower clamping ring 40 to include two semi-circular halves 70a and 70b of hollow box-like construction, pivotally joined at hinge 72.
  • Upper clamping ring 70 is clamped on cutting head casing 14 by toggle mechanisms 74a and 74b located diametrically opposite hinge 72 and operable by hydraulic cylinders 73 and 75, respectively.
  • Toggle mechanisms 74a and 74b may be similar in construction and opera- 1 tion to toggle mechanisms 44a and 44b utilized in connection with lower clamping ring 40.
  • Upper clamping ring 70 is separated from lower clamping ring 40 by a plurality of circumferentially spaced hydraulic jacks 76, the housings of which are affixed to lower clamping ring 40 and the terms 78 of which abut the underside of upper clamping ring 70.
  • This construction may be seen in FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • a plurality of peripheral slots 80 are provided in the walls of upper clamping ring 70.
  • No rotary drive means is coupled to upper clamping ring 70.
  • Cutting head 12 is urged into contact with the earth to obtain the desired cutting action by the weight of cutting head 12. Because of the heavy construction of cutting head 12, clamping rings 40 and 70, etc., the weight of this apparatus will, in many cases, be fully sufficient as a vertical driving force. In other cases, the intrinsic weight of cutting head 12, clamping rings 40 and 70, etc., may be augmented with an additional circular weight 34 placed on the upper edge of cutting head casing 14 as by crane 82 shown in FIG. 7. A notch 36 is provided in weight 34 to retain the weight on the cutting head casing. It will be appreciated that as the sinking of the shaft progresses and additional sections of casing are affixed to cutting head casing 14, the weight of the machine increases, increasing the vertical force and the effectiveness of the machines cutting action.

  • This means may comprise the crane 82 shown in FIG. 7, positioned adjacent concrete pad 24 and having clam shell bucket 84 or other scoop means which may be lowered down the vertical shaft to pick up the spoil and then raised out of the shaft to remove it.
  • Crane 82 may also be used to assemble ma-.

  • hydraulic cylinders 62 through 68 may be appropriately positioned prior to the pouring of the concrete pad.

With hydraulic cylinders 54 and 60 retracted to move toggle mechanisms 44a and 44b to the unclamped position the ring is lowered over cutting head 12 to rest on wear plate 41.
  • One end of each of hydraulic cylinders 62 through 68 is anchored on rods 63 embedded in concrete pad 24 in the manner shown in FIG. 4 and described above.
  • the other ends of the hydraulic cylinders are joined to journals 59 and 61 on lower clamping ring 40.

  • the slurry pump is started to provide a lubricating slurry around casing 14.
  • Hydraulic cylinders 62 through 68 are then operated to rotate lower clamping ring 40 and cutting head 12.
  • Two modes of periodic rotating action may be provided a bidirectional, oscillating mode and a unidirectional mode.
  • the type of rotating action employed is selected in accordance with the type of soil through which the shaft is being sunk, the construction of cutting bit 16, etc.
  • hydraulic cylinders 62 through 68 are initially extended to move cutting head 12 in the counter clockwise direction.
  • hydraulic cylinders 64 and 66 are extended to move cutting head 12 clockwise.
  • Lower clamping ring 40 rides on wear plate 41 during rotation.
  • one pair of the hydraulic cylinders for example, hydraulic cylinders 62 and 68 are initially extended to rotate cutting head 12 in the counter clockwise direction.

Hydraulic cylinders 54 and 60 are then extended to reclamp lower clamping ring 40 on cutting head 12,
  • machine 10 of the present invention While the oscillatory mode of rotary action is presently preferred, since the alternating cutting directions tend to prevent displacement of the axis of the shaft from its desired location, machine 10 of the present invention also facilitates use of a constant rotary cutting direction by overcoming difficulties previously encountered with this technique. With a constant or unidirectional rotary cutting direction, the torque applied to cutting head 12 as the shaft is sunk has, in the past, tended to displace the axis from its intended course. However, through the use of guide collar 20, the machine of the present invention permits a unidirectional rotary cutting direction while at the same time minimizing or eliminating the tendency for the shaft to drift off course.
  • hydraulic cylinders 54 and 60 are retracted to loosen lower clamping ring 40 and allow cutting head 12 to descend, driven by its weight, the weight of clamping ring 70, and the weight of weight 34, if applied. Hydraulic cylinders 54 and 60 are then extended to reclamp lower clamping ring 40 and the rotation of cutting head 12 is resumed to recommence sinking the vertical shaft.
