Abstract: The rotary-percussive hydraulic perforator includes a body; a shank; a striking piston configured to strike the shank and provided with a braking surface; a braking chamber configured to hydraulically brake the striking piston; a stop piston configured to apply a pushing force on the shank and provided with a bearing surface configured to abut against a stop surface provided on the body, so as to limit the stroke of displacement of the stop piston towards the shank. The rotary-percussive hydraulic perforator is configured such that the bearing surface and the stop surface are axially spaced apart by a predetermined spacing distance simultaneously when (i) the shank bears on the stop piston and is in contact with the striking piston, and (ii) the braking surface is located at an inlet edge of the braking chamber.

Abstract: The hydraulic rotary-percussive hammer drill includes a fluid injection portion including a fluid feed-in inlet and an annular inner groove fluidly connected to the fluid feed-in inlet; a shank including a fluid injection conduit fluidly connected to the annular inner groove; front and rear main sealing gaskets disposed on either side of the annular inner groove and configured to cooperate with a first shank portion of the shank; a rear backup sealing gasket located at the rear of the rear main sealing gasket and configured to cooperate with a second shank portion of the shank; a leakage passage defined between the shank and the fluid injection portion; pressure drop generation means configured to generate pressure drops in the leakage passage when a leakage flow flows in the leakage passage.

Abstract: A rotary percussive hydraulic drill comprises a body; a shank having female coupling splines and male coupling splines; a striking piston configured to strike the shank; a rotation drive device configured to drive the shank in rotation; a front abutment surface against which the shank is configured to come into abutment. The shank has an annular bearing flange which is provided on an outer surface of the shank and which has an annular bearing surface configured to come into abutment against the front abutment surface.

Abstract: The hydraulic rotary-percussive hammer drill includes a body; a shank; a striking piston configured to hit the shank; a stop piston configured to position the shank in a predetermined balanced position, the body and the stop piston delimiting a first control chamber permanently connected to a high-pressure fluid feed-in conduit and configured to urge the stop piston forwards, and a second control chamber configured to urge the stop piston forwards. The hydraulic rotary-percussive hammer drill comprises a fluidic communication channel opening into the second control chamber, configured to supply the second control chamber with high-pressure fluid and provided with a calibrated orifice.
