  • Impact borer, connector for embedding lines, anchoring cables, and sinking wells
    Patent number: 5109932
    Abstract: An impact borer is disclosed for embedding lines and for sinking geothermal wells. The impact borer has a shell, which has a longitudinal bore. An anvil closes one end of the bore. A ram is reciprocally slideable within the bore, against and away from the anvil. The ram divides the bore into front, rear, and ram chambers. A director is joined to the shell.
