Abstract: A ground drilling device with a drivetrain for rotating a drill string, wherein at least one section of the drivetrain is configured to form a channel between a force transmission element of the drivetrain and the drill string, wherein the channel projects through the force transmission element and the force transmission element may be driven radially in the drivetrain.

Abstract: A ground drilling device has a drilling carriage which defines a drill string axis, a drill rod magazine for a plurality of rod sections, and a transfer device for the transfer of a rod section between the drill rod magazine and a position of the rod section in the direction of the drill string axis. The ground drilling device also has a guide on a top of the drill rod magazine that is configured to guide movement of the transfer device.

Abstract: A Ground drilling device having a drilling carriage and a sled movable back and forth on the drilling carriage, wherein at least one gear is present for the drive of the sled, whose rotary movement is transformed into a linear movement by means of a rack, wherein a force relieving pathway is provided to relieve the gear of a radially introduced force.

Abstract: A ground drilling device having a drilling carriage, which defines a drill string axis, a first drill rod magazine for a plurality of rod sections and a transfer device for the transfer of a rod section between the first drill rod magazine and a position of the rod section along the drill string axis, wherein at least a first connection element is arranged at the first rod magazine and/or at the drilling carriage for the connecting of the first rod magazine to a second rod magazine such that the second rod magazine is arranged next to the first rod magazine.
