Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0066891A2] 1. Arrangement for sound quieting to be applied in the operation of percussive drills particularly in underground mining and tunnel construction, in that the resistance of the drilling rod which has any of the known polygonal, round or elliptic cross-sections, and which is provided for being inserted between drill hammer and drill bit, is increased thus inhibiting the generation of natural acoustic oscillations by means of additional masses that are attached to the drilling rod and permanently fixed thereto, characterized in that a sleeve-like metallic compound (3) consisting of two individual masses (4, 5) separated by a simply slipped-on sleeve-like spacer (6) made of rubber, synthetic material or a metal piece of pipe with internal rubber or plastic coating, is attached to the drilling rod directly before the shank (2) of the drilling rod (1) to be inserted into the drill hammer ; this is done in a permanent way - for example by means of pressing on, possibly after previous insertion of rubber of synthetic rings between drilling rod (1) and individual masses (4, 5), in order to improve non-skidding properties - whereby the - preferably identical - individual masses (4, 5) themselves as well as the mass compound (3) as a whole are dimensioned such that they are short in relation to the overall length of the drilling rod (1), but do represent a sensible additional mass in relation to the mass of the drilling rod (1).
