Abstract

Bei einem selbstantreibbaren Rammbohrgerät, insbesondere für die Herstellung von Erdbohrungen, mit einem an der Ver­ triebsseite eines zylinderförmigen Gehäuses angeordneten und von einem Schlagkolben mit Rammschlagimpulsen beauf­ schlagbaren Schlagwerkzeug, wobei der Schlagkolben in pul­ sierende, translatorische Arbeitshübe pneumatisch antreib­ bar ist, wird vorgeschlagen, daß das Schlagwerkzeug (100) mit seiner Schrägfläche (20) im Gehäuse (1) drehbar um die Rotationsachse (x-x) gelagert ist und mit diesem zusammen­ wirkende kinematische Mittel (12, 13, 14) zur Umsetzung­ einer jedem Schlag des Schlagkolbens (2) folgenden transla­ torischen Bewegung in eine graduelle Drehbewegung sowie pneumatisch ansteuerbare Mittel (8, 19, 105, 106) zur In­ gangsetzung oder Unterbrechung der Drehbewegung aufweist. With a self-propelled ram boring machine, in particular for the production of earth bores, with one on the ver arranged drive side of a cylindrical housing and impacted by a percussion piston with ramming impulses beatable impact tool, the impact piston in pul Pneumatic driving translatory working strokes bar, it is proposed that the striking tool (100) with its inclined surface (20) in the housing (1) rotatable around the Rotation axis (x-x) is mounted and together with this acting kinematic means (12, 13, 14) for implementation a transla following each stroke of the percussion piston (2) toric movement into a gradual rotary movement as well pneumatically controllable means (8, 19, 105, 106) for the In has gearing or interruption of the rotary movement.
