Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021185499A1] The invention relates to a drilling rod for transmitting a torque, having an elongate main rod body, along which at least one main line for a fluid and/or electric current and/or data extends, an upper suspension device for suspending the drilling rod on a support element, a rotary bearing, which is arranged between the suspension device and the main rod body, wherein the main rod body is mounted so as to be rotatable about a rod longitudinal axis relative to the suspension device, and a rotary feedthrough which forms a line connection between at least one feed line, fixed relative to the support element, and the at least one main line of the rotatably mounted main rod body. The invention is characterized in that the rotary bearing is arranged in a manner spaced apart axially from the rotary feedthrough, and in that the rotary bearing has an axial bearing which is arranged above or beneath the rotary feedthrough. The invention also relates to a drill having such a drilling rod and to a method for retrofitting an existing Kelly bar arrangement.
