  • Publication number: 20080240865
    Abstract: A module is for use in drilling a borehole in face of a mine passage using a drilling element and installing a bolt in the borehole once formed. The module may include a bolt holder for holding a plurality of bolts and a drilling element holder for holding a plurality of different drilling elements. A manipulator moves along an arcuate path between the bolt and drilling element holders to deliver the respective components to a drill head positioned along the arcuate path. The drill head may also slide relative to the mast in two different directions, and includes a drill guide for determining the location of the face to be worked. Related aspects of control of the module and methods are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 5411187
    Abstract: An aerosol spray container includes a container defining first and second non-communicating open-topped chambers. The first chamber is air-tight and configured and dimensioned to hold a liquid to be dispensed as an aerosol spray, and the second chamber is configured and dimensioned to receive therein a longitudinally extending spray director. An aerosol valve operatively closes the open top of the first chamber and is actuatable to release aerosol spray therefrom. The valve is configured and dimensioned to receive therein one end of the spray director, whereby aerosol spray released through the valve exits the opposite end of the director, thereby to guide and direct the aerosol spray.
