Abstract: A telemetry system for obtaining loggings by an independently guiding logging probe provided with a sensor includes the logging probe ejected in a drill string, so that the sensor projecting through a drill bit of the drill string has an access to the bottom and walls of the drill bore, a pick-up probe injectable into the drill string to form a wireless connection with the logging probe and connected to a portable computer which initializes the logging probe, loggings stored in the logging probe are readable from the portable computer upon recovering the logging probe from the bore string.

Abstract: A survey process for cable core borings in which an inner core tube (3) with an autarcally operating measuring probe (24) releasably secured via a core retaining sleeve adapter (20) is fed into a core boring rod (6) and blocked in an outer core tube (4) with a boring ring (2) via a core tube coupling (10, 11, 12, 13), measurements are taken in the open borehole by the measuring probe (24), the sensors of which look forwards through the boring ring on the withdrawal of the core boring rods (6), and temporarily stored time-dependently in the measuring probe (24), the measured depth is found by means of a rod travel indicator (1) and stored in a manner correlatable in time and, after the withdrawal of the inner core tube (3) with its measuring probe (24) secured to it, the measurements are read out from the measuring probe via a portable PC.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for the sequential firing of electrical detonators in several firing circuits, the device consisting of a detonating machine, electric leads and switches for activating the firing circuits. The detonating machine (1) is connected by a lead (2) to an electronic firing switch (3) to which are connected the firing circuits (13a . . . 13n) which consist of one or more series-connected electrical detonators (14a . . . 14n) and explosive charges (4a . . . 4n) designed to be detonated by the detonators, the electronic firing switch (3) consisting of a firing-current detection circuit (7), a logic circuit (8), switching relays (10a . . . 10n), a power supply (9) and protective resistors (11a . . . 11n).
