Abstract (en)

The pile hammer comprises a guide cylinder (1), a drop weight (4) mounted on a hydraulic hoist cylinder (5), and a hydraulic operation and control system. A main valve (8) is switchable between two states: supply of high pressure oil to the hoist cylinder (5) to raise the drop weight (4), and drainage of oil from the hoist cylinder (5) to allow the drop weight (4) to fall. Switching is accomplished by mechanical actuation of spring loaded pilot valves (6,7) which are switched from a normal state to an actuated state when the drop weight (4) reaches certain positions within the guide cylinder (1). <IMAGE>
