Abstract

An apparatus for inserting an elongate member into the ground, comprises a barrel 102 having a bore for receiving the member 130 to be inserted into the ground,. A piston 134 is slidable along the bore of the barrel 102 to ram the member into the ground, and a breech 140 closes off end of the barrel on the opposite side of the piston from the member to form a chamber for receiving a charge 136 that is ignitable to generate a high gas pressure within the chamber. The barrel is pivotably mounted on a frame 16 for rotation between a vertical deployed position for ramming the member into the ground and an inclined loading position for inserting of the elongate member 130 into the bore of the barrel 102. The frame is weighted or anchored to the ground to withstand the reaction force on the barrel as the member is rammed into the ground by ignition of the charge.
