Abstract (en)

[origin: US4953626A] A ram boring machine having a pull-and-turn reversing gear which comprises a striking piston axially displaceable in a tubular housing and a rotatably mounted control pipe with control openings such that forward and backward movement of the machine is controlled by moving the control openings over corresponding radial control openings in the striking piston, the control pipe having at least two parts with the rear part (viewed in the ramming direction) being connected to a supply hose, being relieved of the working pressure, and being connected to the bearing pipe by way of a force-loaded locking device which can be unlocked axially by traction on the supply hose against the loading force. This arrangement on the one hand prevents undesired reversal and on the other hand enables reversal to be effected under pressure.
