Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0385959A2] A percussion drill includes a control arbor (18) in which a hammer piston (70) is longitudinally reciprocably disposed. Front (34) and rear (36) casing sections are threadedly coupled to the control arbor (18) in a manner preventing longitudinal movement of the arbor relative to the casing sections. A drill bit (50) is secured to the front casing section (34), and is repeatedly struck by the piston (70) to effect a percussion drilling operation. A rear sub (46) is secured to the rear casing section (36), and a front end (64) of the rear sub projects telescopingly into a rear end (63) of the control arbor to radially support the latter.
