Abstract (en)

A rock breaking device is designed to crush rocks by the use of expansion pressure generated when a cylindrical elastic expansive member (1) is expanded by pressure fluid delivered to looped pockets (3) provided within the elastic member (1). The elastic member (1), made of rubber or the like, is arranged to fit tightly around a metal shaft (4) having a fluid passage (6) for delivering pressure fluid to the looped pockets (3) of the elastic member (1). Elastic rings (10) are interposed between the ends of member (1) and axially fixed abutments (12), and are of harder material than the member (1).
