Abstract: A drill tool is provided with: a drive source accommodated in a tool body 2; a bit drive shaft 3 which is rotation-driven by the drive source and provided projectingly from a front end of the drill body 2; and a diamond bit 4 attached to a front end of the bit drive shaft 3. Further, the drill tool is provided with a vibrating apparatus which generates vibrating force which acts in the axial direction of the bit drive shaft 3, a magnitude of which pulsates, and vibrating moment which acts in the rotational direction of the bit drive shaft 3, a magnitude of which pulsates.

Abstract: An impact tool enables a front cover part to be easily attached to and detached from a housing body, with a device having a simplified structure. The front cover part has an annular fastening portion clamped to the outer peripheral surface of a front edge portion of the housing body, a cylindrical portion extending from the front end of the housing to the region of the fastening portion, and a connecting portion connecting together the cylindrical portion and the fastening portion. The fastening portion is split at a circumferential part thereof to form a pair of circumferentially opposing tongue-shaped portions. A clamping device is provided between the tongue-shaped portions, which is movable between a clamping position where it pulls the tongue-shaped portions toward each other and an unclamping position where the tongue-shaped portions are released from being pulled toward each other.

Abstract: A compressed-air-operated percussion mechanism includes a housing, a percussion body and a balancing body, which form an operating chamber therebetween. A secondary valve seals the operating chamber during an operating stroke and opens the chamber to evacuate compressed air after the termination of the operating stroke. A primary valve is connected to the compressed air inlet passage and intermittently opens to provide compressed air to the operating chamber.

Abstract: An apparatus for forming a slit in a rock and a concrete surface has a simple construction to enable a deep slit having a predetermined width and smooth inner surface to be made efficiently and also decreases the slit making cost due to replacement of bits. This slit forming apparatus comprises a plate type bit (17) fixedly secured to the leading end of a laterally swingable plate (13), a drill bit (11) fixedly mounted on the leading end of a rod (9a and/or 9b), which is disposed along at least one side of the plate, so that it may rotate and slide, and striking means (5 and/or 12a, 12b) for striking the plate and the rod simultaneously or separately. Further, the rod has at its front end portion a stabilizer for stabilizing the direction of sliding. The plate type bit consists of a plurality of detachable bit blocks.

Abstract: A holder for a plurality of scalers including a rectangular tube 2 forming the main body portion and including coaxial bores in opposite walls 8,10 to secure the scalers 14 and permit easy removal and axial adjustment of individual tools.

Abstract: Hydraulic hammers are useful for transmitting high impact blows to a tool for fracturing hard material. When two hammers are used in combination the impact blows delivered to a common tool by the hammers should be synchronized for maximum effectiveness. The subject synchronized hydraulic hammer arrangement includes a valve arrangement for alternately directing pressurized fluid to a variable volume chamber in each of a pair of hydraulic hammers to simultaneously retract a piston of each hydraulic hammer against the bias of pressurized gas in a gas chamber of each hydraulic hammer and exhausting the variable volume hydraulic chambers in response to at least one of the pistons reaching a predetermined position. The gas chambers are interconnected for equalizing the gas pressure therein. This arrangement of components provides synchronized movement of the pistons in an outward direction so that they simultaneously impact against the common tool.

Abstract: A pneumatically-actuated multi-needle type chisel tool is provided having a hollow cylinder body, a piston ram fitted for axially reciprocal movement in a rearward portion of the cylinder body, an anvil fitted for axially reciprocal movement in an intermediate portion of the cylinder body, a needle holder fitted for axially reciprocal movement in a forward portion of the cylinder body and a number of needle chisels journaled for axially reciprocal movement in the needle holder. A first air passage is provided with an opening into the rearward portion of the cylinder body to introduce compressed air thereinto for moving the piston ram to and fro. A second air passage is provided with an opening into the forward portion of the cylinder body to introduce compressed air thereinto for moving the needle holder rearwardly.

Abstract: A pneumatic hammer comprises a cylindrical housing, in which are a free piston, an anvil, and needles the rear ends of which end in heads designed to rest against the anvil and supported by a tool holder. The anvil comprises a steel cylinder in the lateral surface of which is an annular rebate. The cylinder is surrounded by a plastics material in the rebate, the outer surface of which material forms the cylindrical sliding surface of the anvil. The volume occupied by the plastics material is approximately 50% of the total volume, such that the mass of the anvil is approximately halved.

Abstract: A power hoe includes a power source, two substantially planar hoe blades positioned in apposition to one another and power connecting structure to synchronizingly reciprocate the blades in sliding engagement relative to each other. The sliding engagement causes the blades to be self-cleaning. Orientation of the tapered end of each hoe blade perpendicular to the direction of reciprocation effects a ground penetrating action of the hoe blades.

Abstract: An impact mechanism for rock breaking, pile driving and pile extracting, and the like, includes a head assembly (18) with a pair of shank members (24,26) movably mounted thereto and flywheel (76,78) and eccentric crankshaft parts (74) rotated by a motor (84). The crankshaft parts (74) intermittently contact one of the shank members (24,26) to drive it outwardly from the head assembly (18) by transmitting flywheel energy thereto. A biasing and dampening device (110) associated with each shank member (24,26) absorbs rebound energy from the shank member (24,26) and maintains the shank members (24,26) disengaged from the crankshaft parts (74) until it is positively urged thereagainst. The head assembly (18) is movably mounted at the end of an articulated arm (10) for maneuvering it into desired work position.
