Definitions

  • This invention relates to a rock bolt and to a method of rock bolting employing the rock bolt.
  • a method according to the invention of anchoring a rock bolt which comprises an elongated tube which is made from a ductile metal, is closed at one end and includes a one-way liquid inlet valve which opens under liquid pressure into the tube includes the steps of locating the tube in a hole, connecting a liquid hose to the one-way valve, filling the tube with liquid at a pressure high enough to radially expand the wall of the tube into gripping engagement with the wall of the hole and removing the hose from the valve to leave the liquid trapped at pressure in the tube by the valve.
  • a portion of the tube wall over at least a substantial portion of the length of the tube is deformed into the tube to reduce its outer circumferential dimension to less than that of the hole in which it is to be anchored with the method conveniently including the step of outwardly deforming the wall deformation by means of the high pressure water to bring the wall into engagement with the wall of the hole during installation of the bolt.

  • the upper end of the tube may, if required, be sleeved by a second ferrule 16.
  • the tube 10 is made from a ductile metal such as mild steel.
  • the tube 10 which is originally circular in cross-section, is deformed, as shown in Figure 3, by pressing a portion of its wall into the tube to provide a deep outwardly widening recess 18 in the tube which extends from just behind the ferrule 14 over the remaining length of the bolt to its rear end.
  • the tube 10 is closed at its upper end in Figures 1 and 2 by welding the C-shaped cavity of the bolt in the ferrule 16 closed as shown in Figure 7.

  • the overlapping portions of the wall of tube are welded together and the spaces around the valve 12 are closed by welding.
  • Figures 4 and 5 illustrate two further cross-sectional shapes of the tube 10.
  • the Figure 5 cross-sectional profile of the tube could of course include two or more of the wall recesses 20.
  • the valve 12, in this embodiment of the invention, is shown in Figures 9 to 11 to include a valve body 22 having on its end which is outermost, in use, a hose coupling formation 24 and on its other end which, in use, is located in the tube 10 a valve member boss 26.
  • the diaphragm type valve member 28 of Figures 10 and 11 is made from an elastomeric material such as rubber and is cap-shaped in cross-section as shown in Figure 10.
  • the valve member 28 includes a skirt 30 which carries on its underside an inwardly directly rib 32 which, in use, is engaged in an undercut groove 34 in the valve body boss 26, and on its upper end a central boss 36 which is thickened in the axial direction of the valve to enable it to withstand the high water pressure in the tube when it is forced by the water pressure down over the outlet from the bore 37 through the valve body 22.
  • the boss 36 is surrounded by a plurality of water inlet holes 38 which are closed onto the outer surface of the valve body boss 26, as shown in Figure 8, by the water under pressure in the tube 10 in use.
  • the ferrules 14 and 16, as illustrated in Figure 8, are of a heavier gauge material than that of the tube 10 to ensure that the end portions of the tube are not deformed by water pressure in use to stress the welding at the tube ends.
  • the end of the ferrule 14 which faces the ferrule 16 is, in this embodiment, outwardly flared to provide a seat for a face washer 42 as illustrated in Figures 12 and 13.
  • the flared portion of the ferrule could be rolled over to form a bead with its rolled over edge being at least tack-welded to the outer surface of the ferrule.
  • the face washer 42 is shown in Figure 12 to be square in plan and includes a central dome 44, and in this embodiment, four buttress ribs 46 which extend radially from the dome 44 to the washer periphery.
  • the washer additionally includes an outwardly bent lug 48 from which cables and the like may be suspended.
  • Figure 13 illustrates the rock bolt of the invention and the washer 42 in use with a hole 50 which is skewed relatively to a face 52 and against which the washer bears in use.
  • the bolt hole through it is in the form of a round ended elongated slot with the width of the slot being no greater than the flared seat on the ferrule 14. Obviously the washer needs to be located on the bolt tube prior to the welding of both ferrules to the tube 10.
  • the bolt which has a diameter smaller than that of the hole in which it is intended to be used is slid into the hole with the ferrule 16 towards the distal end of the hole until the washer 42 bears firmly up against the face material surrounding the mouth of the hole.
  • a high pressure water hose is connect to the hose coupler 24 on the exposed end of the valve 12 and water at a supply pressure of between 100 and 300 bar is fed into the tube through the valve 12 with the upper portion of the valve member being lifted from its seat on the valve member boss 26 to permit water to flow from under the central boss 36 of the valve member out through the holes 38 into the tube 10.
  • the high pressure water causes the tube 10 to unfold from its deformed shape as shown in Figures 3, 5 or 6 to cause the tube 10 to increase in radial dimension and bring its outer surface into high pressure contact with the wall of the larger diameter hole to lock the rock anchor solidly in position in the hole.
  • the rounded corners of the deformed cross-sectional shape of the tube 10 enable this expansion to occur smoothly by merely unrolling a portion of the tube in the recess 18 outwardly until further movement of the tube wall is prevented by the wall of the hole in which the rock bolt is
  • rock bolt of the invention is shown in the drawings to be relatively short but could of course be of any practical length which is suitable for a particular rock anchoring application.
  • a second embodiment of the bolt of the invention is illustrated in Figure 14 and is shown in the drawing to include the ferruled expansion tube 10 as previously described and a tube bolt 54 which is welded into the end of the tube 10 of the expansible bolt.
  • the expansion tube 10 in this embodiment could be shorter in length than would otherwise be the case as in many applications it would merely serve as an end anchor for the tensioned tube bolt 54.
  • the valve body 22 of the valve 12 could be formed on or welded to the end of the tube bolt 54 to be located in the tube cavity.
  • the free end of the tube bolt could carry over a portion of its length from its free end rolled threads over which a domed washer 56 is slidable and with which a tensioning nut is engaged.
  • the dome on the face washer 58 would be inwardly concave to form a seat for the domed washer 56.
  • the tube bolt has sufficient diameter its free end could include the hose coupling formation 24 of the previous embodiment or the water hose could include an outlet nipple which is threadedly engaged with the threads on the end portion of the tube bolt to enable the expandable portion of the bolt to be water filled at high pressure through the tube bolt.
  • a threaded sleeve carrying the hose coupling 24 could be screwed onto the free end of the bolt for water filling and then be removed when the valve has closed the water outlet from the tube 10.
  • FIGs 15 to 17 A further variation of the rock bolt of the invention is illustrated in Figures 15 to 17.
  • the outer end of the ferrule 14 is outwardly flared, as shown in Figure 15, with the flared mouth of the ferrule being weld filled onto the oneway valve 12.
  • Figure 16 the Figure 15 bolt is shown to include a hanger 60 which in use projects outwardly from the hole in which the bolt is located to enable goods, equipment, service lines and so on to be attached to or suspended from the bolt.
  • FIG. 17 bolt is shown supporting the face washer 62 which is slidably located on the ferrule 14.

Abstract

L'invention se rapporte à un boulon d'ancrage comprenant un corps allongé déformable (10) constitué d'un métal ductile. Ledit boulon définit une chambre étanche dans ledit corps. Un fluides hydraulique à haute pression peut être chargé dans la chambre de façon à élargir la chambre dans le sens transversal vers l'axe longitudinal du corps élargi. Cet élargissement permet aux parois de la chambre (10) de venir contre la paroi interne d'un alésage de manière à fixer le boulon. Ledit boulon peut comprendre une soupape de retenue (22) située dans l'entrée de la chambre de manière à éviter la sortie du liquide.
