  • Patent number: 12173584
    Abstract: The invention relates to a rotary device (101) for a down-the-hole hammer (1), which rotary device is accommodated in a rotation motor housing (3) and mounted behind a drill housing (2) for transferring a torque to a drill bit (8) and a pressurized drive fluid (22) to a striking mechanism (4) for the drill bit. The rotary device includes a cam curve with a plurality of drive lobes (28:1-28:3) and working chambers (30:1, 30:2, 30:3) along a circumference in the rotation motor housing (3), a rotor disc (38) carrying a plurality of radially movable vanes (40:1-40:12), which are accommodated in piston tracks (41:1-41:12) in the rotor disc.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10030449
    Abstract: An arrangement at a drill includes a drill bit intended to be inserted at its neck into a chuck in a down-the-hole drill, a control means for guiding the drill and a lining pipe, a coupling arrangement in the form of a bayonet coupling or similar with which the drill can be coupled to the control means in a manner that allows them to be separated and that in its freed condition allows the drill, together with the down-the-hole drill, to be withdrawn through the lining pipe, a flushing passage for the supply of flushing agent in front of the drill and an evacuation passage for the removal of drilling cuttings together the flushing agent. It also includes a casing shoe that can be applied at the forward end of the lining pipe and a contact surface arranged at a stationary part of the down-the-hole drill.
