Abstract: The present invention proposes a borehole inspection device, a borehole inspection system and a method for loading explosives in boreholes. The borehole inspection device comprises a tubular casing (7), illumination means (10) and image capturing means (9) housed in the casing (7), at least one circulation duct (16) for a fluid (4), and a diffusing element (1) suitable for spraying the fluid (4) circulating through the at least one circulation duct (16) onto a transparent closure (2) allowing the illumination and the image capture through it.

Abstract: A system of de-watering boreholes by alternating cycles of aspiration and expulsion based on pneumatic displacement, includes a double hose to be introduced into a borehole. The double hose includes a flexible outer hose and a flexible inner hose separated by an annular space therebetween, the double hose adapted to reach a full depth of the borehole. The outer hose has an outer diameter less than a diameter of the borehole to provide an annular clearance between the borehole and the outer hose. An upper closing element is connected to an upper end of the double hose outside of the borehole, and has two outlets which permit entry and exit of air and water. A lower closing element is attached to the double hose at a lower end thereof, and includes a foot valve, a filter, and a protective element to serve as a battering ram.
