Abstract: The invention relates to a feed apparatus for feeding capsular cartridges into a drilled hole, the apparatus being intended to be used in conjunction with a rock drill apparatus. The feed apparatus comprises a rotatable roll-like cartridge magazine (1) with charge tubes (2) which are arranged on at least one perimeter and into which the capsular cartridges can be loaded in advance. The apparatus further comprises means for indexing a magazine, whereby the desired charge tubes (2) can be rotated to align with the feeding line. In an embodiment of the invention the feed is performed by feeding pressure air into the rear end of the charge tube at a high pressure, whereby the cartridge loaded into the charge tube moves from the charge tube to a connecting pipe (7) positioned at the firing line at the front end of the cartridge magazine and further along a feed hose 86) to a hole drilled in advance. The apparatus can also comprise a control apparatus for automatic control of the feed apparatus from the cabin.

Abstract: In the arrangement, a feed beam made of an aluminum profile comprises a slide guide frame, whereby the outer surface of the slide guide frame and respectively, the inner surface of the slide guide are shaped and dimensioned in such a manner that when the slide guide is on the slide guide frame, they are tight against one another. The other edge of the slide guide flame and respectively, the corresponding edge of the slide guide are shaped in such a manner that when the slide guide is mounted in place, its edge is shape-locked relative to the slide guide frame. The slide guide is also secured by separate securing mechanism to the feed beam in such a manner that it cannot move either in the cross or longitudinal direction relative to the feed beam.

Abstract: Arrangement for mounting slides between a rock drilling machine and a carriage or the like mounted slideably with respect to the feeding beam of the drifting machine. In the arrangement, slide flames are formed by an integral body having a groove for a slide made as an integral body. The groove and the slide are such in cross section that the slide can be inserted into the slide frame only in its longitudinal direction.

Abstract: An arrangement for controlling the feed motion of the feed beam of a rock drill, the arrangement including sensing elements for detecting the position of the front and for rear end of the rock drill and for controlling the feed and the return motion. In the arrangement of the invention, inductive sensors are mounted in the middle of the feed beam, and indicators are secured to the cylinder sleeve of the feed cylinder so that the position of the cylinder sleeve indicates the position of the front and the rear end of the drill and thus controls the feed motion of the drill.
