Abstract
A hydraulic drilling machine has a metal chassis shaped as a rectangular parallelepiped, drilling resources located at the front of the chassis, a rotary motor to drive drilling rods, and a hydraulic circuit. An electrical circuit powers the various components of the drilling machine. The machine can be mounted on the arm of a hydraulic mini-digger and operate without an extra hydraulic unit.

A hydraulic drilling machine comprising a metal chassis shaped as a rectangular parallelepiped having a first lengthwise extremity arranged to be connected to a hydraulic source, drilling resources located in a bottom part of the metal chassis at a second lengthwise extremity opposite to the first lengthwise extremity, the drilling resources including a rotary motor for driving drilling rods during a drilling operation, the drilling rods, when mounted on the rotary motor during a drilling operation, extending in a direction perpendicular to the longest faces of the metal chassis, between the first and second lengthwise extremities, stabilization resources for the position of the drilling machine during a drilling operation mounted on the metal chassis to create a resultant force coaxial to the axis of drilling resources including the rotary motor and the drilling rods when connected to the rotary motor during a drilling operation, and further resources arranged to be mounted on an arm of a hydraulic mini-digger arranged to be connected at the first lengthwise extremity, the further resources being capable of operation without the addition of an extra hydraulic unit.
A hydraulic drilling machine comprising:
- a metal chassis shaped as a rectangular parallelepiped having:
- a first lengthwise end and a second lengthwise end opposite the first lengthwise end, the first lengthwise end arranged to be connected to a hydraulic source,
- drilling resources located in a bottom part of the metal chassis at the second lengthwise end, the drilling resources including:
- a rotary motor arranged to drive drilling rods during a drilling operation, the rotary motor arranged to extend the drilling rods in a direction perpendicular to the longest face of the metal chassis, between the first and second lengthwise ends,
- support devices arranged to stabilize the position of the drilling machine during a drilling operation, the support devices mounted on the metal chassis and arranged to create a resultant force coaxial to the axis of the drilling resources during a drilling operation, and
- further resources arranged to be mounted on an arm of a hydraulic mini-digger arranged to be connected at the first lengthwise end, the further resources being capable of operation without the addition of an extra hydraulic unit.
