Abstract: A pressure amplifier can be mounted above a drill bit at the lower end of a drill pipe for generating an increased fluid pressure in a drilling fluid flow to, for example, obtain an increased drilling effect, A reciprocating piston in a cylinder has at one side (a low pressure side) a large piston area and also has a first opposite piston area and a second opposite and relatively small piston area, which generates an increased pressure. A valve device controls drilling fluid flows to and from the piston. Beyond one end of the cylinder there is provided a hydraulic rotary motor adapted to be driven by the pressure difference between the drilling fluid flows in the drill pipe and an annulus. A transmission mechanism converts the rotation of the hydraulic motor into intermittent movements of the valve device between two operative positions.

Abstract: Pneumatic or pressurized fluid tool, such as a screwdriver, having a control device. The control device includes a pivotally mounted trigger which causes rotation of the motor in a first rotational direction when pivoted in a first direction and which causes rotation of the motor in an opposite rotational direction when pivoted in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The trigger is connected to a piston which is movable in a cylinder. The piston is connected by a rod to a valve and includes a cam. The cam of the piston, cooperating with a plunger, operates a selector so that when the trigger is pivoted in the first direction, compressed air or pressurized fluid is admitted to rotate the motor in the first direction.

Abstract: The invention provides an In-The-Hole hydraulic drive unit for rotating a rock drill. A hydraulic motor having a fixed rear trailing end and a rotating front drilling end converts hydraulic power into a rotational drive force. The hydraulic motor receives high pressure hydraulic fluid through a receiving inlet and discharges lower pressure hydraulic fluid through a hydraulic outlet. A drive shaft connected to the rotating front drilling end is disposed within the hydraulic motor. A fluid transfer conduit within the drive shaft transfers hydraulic or pneumatic drill fluid to power the rock drill. The fluid transfer conduit bypasses the hydraulic motor for independent supply and operation of the rock drill. The fluid transfer conduit receives the drill fluid from the surface and transfers the drill fluid toward the rock drill. The drive shaft contains a drill rotator attached to the front drilling end adapted to receive and rotate the rock drill.

Abstract: A pulse tool, especially a nutsetter, comprises a pulse unit including a hydraulic cylinder driven by a motor, and a driven shaft supported in the hydraulic cylinder. Two seal rollers are supported in radial grooves of the driven shaft. The rollers are power-operated towards the inner wall of the cylinder. The seal rollers are simultaneously in contact only in a single rotary position of the cylinder with seal strips that project relative to the inner wall of the cylinder so as to produce an angular momentum. To simplify the structure of the pulse tool and to extend the period of use at the same time, the radial groove which receives the seal roller serving as a compensating roller comprises a lift delaying device for the limited centrifugal movement of the compensating roller.

Abstract: A pneumatic surgical tool for cutting bone during surgical procedures includes a pneumatic motor having a rotary shaft, a resecting tool having a cutting element rotated by the motor, a sleeve to surround and support the resecting tool, anti-friction bearings for further rotatably supporting the resecting tool, and a chuck for connecting the resecting tool to a spindle of the rotary shaft. The motor housing, rotor, spindle, and chuck are created from titanium. The bore of the housing and the cutting tip of the resecting tool have thin hard metal cases, such as titanium nitride, titanium aluminum nitride, or titanium carbon nitride.

Abstract: The pulse impact mechanism (12) has a rotation element (13), joined to a driving shaft (14), in which a receiving opening (16) for a core (17) is configured concentrically with the rotation axis (15). The core part (17) is joined in rotational engagement with a driven shaft (25). In addition, rotation element (13) has a radial bore (18), extending perpendicular to the rotation axis (15), in which a reciprocating piston (19) is received in radially displaceable fashion. The reciprocating piston (19) has a through opening (20) through which core part (17) passes. The reciprocating piston constitutes, with its inner surface facing toward the core part (17), a control surface (36) that cooperates with a control track (37), with control cam (38), configured on the core part (17). When a relative rotation of rotation element (13) and core part (17) occurs, the reciprocating piston (19) executes a stroke in the radial direction.

Abstract: A hydraulic torque impulse mechanism comprising a rotatively driven drive member (10) which has a concentric fluid chamber (12) as well as radially acting cams (25, 26, 28), an output shaft (16) which extends into the fluid chamber (12) and which has two radially extending cylinder bores (18, 19) communicating with each other via a central high pressure chamber (23), two oppositely disposed piston elements (20, 21) reciprocable in the cylinder bores (18, 19) by the cams (25, 26, 28), and two valve chambers (45, 46) each comprising a number of fluid communicating openings (50) interconnecting the high pressure chamber (23) and the drive member fluid chamber (12), and a pressure responsive leaf spring valve element(51) for blocking fluid communication through these openings (50) as the pressure difference between the high pressure chamber (23) and the fluid chamber (12) exceeds a certain level.

Abstract: A spindle apparatus operative by a fluid powered reaction turbine-type motor and having a handle portion, a head portion and a device for attaching a desired tool thereto. The handle portion includes a channel for directing the flow of a received fluid. The head portion includes the reaction turbine-type motor which is coupled to an outlet of the channel so as to receive the fluid therefrom. The head portion further includes a rotatable shaft which is coupled to the reaction turbine-type motor and to the attaching device. Upon receiving fluid from the handle portion, the reaction turbine-type motor rotates, thereby causing the shaft and the tool to rotate.

Abstract: The power wrench has a substantially T-shaped configuration and comprises a transversely extending housing (10) and a headpiece (11) extending centrally therefrom. The housing (10) comprises a working cylinder (17) and an additional cylinder (21). Both cylinders guide a unit (60) having at the one end a working piston (25) and at the other end an additional piston (29). The lever (41) of the headpiece (11) engages in a coupling member (27). The additional cylinder (21) drives the return stroke. Its area is substantially smaller than that of the working cylinder (17), so that the return movement does not require much hydraulic fluid. The headpiece (11) can easily be exchanged. Its lever (41) loosely engages in the coupling member (27) of the unit (60).

Abstract: An electro-hydraulically operated tool apparatus installs and removes bolts of track shoes for assembling and disassembling endless track assemblies. In the assembly procedure, a wrench of the tool apparatus engages the head portion of a track shoe bolt and rotates the bolt in a clockwise direction at a relatively high speed to thread a nut onto the bolt and secure the track shoe to the track chain. The tool apparatus senses the torque and at a pre-set level, a transmission of the apparatus automatically shifts to rotate the wrench at a relatively low speed. At this point, the tool apparatus starts measuring the angle of rotation, and at a pre-determined angle of about 120.degree., the wrench stops rotating. The rotation of the bolt an additional 120.degree. after the pre-torque level is reached applies the desired torque value to the bolted joint. In the disassembly procedure, the wrench engages the head portion of the bolt and applies a large down pressure to the bolt.
