Abstract
Improvement to a hydraulic striking machine including among other things a body part and a piston, moving to and fro in the body and being accelerated to strike against a tool. The air current produced is led out of the machine uniformly along the surface of the tool to clean the tool.
Claims7
A method for operating a hydraulic-actuated striking machine comprising a body part and a hydraulically operated piston moving to and for in the body, with said piston being accelerated to strike intermittently against a tool, wherein the improvement comprises:
- (a) passing a current of air directly from the atmosphere through a filter then through an inlet check valve into an impact compression space located between the piston and the tool to provide an intermittent puffing air current;
- and
- (b) leading the air current from said impact compression space through an outlet check valve and then uniformly along the outer surface of said tool to clean the tool.
A method for operating a hydraulic actuated striking machine comprising a body part and a hydraulically operated piston moving to and fro in the body and said piston being accelerated to strike intermittently against a tool, wherein the improvement comprises passing a current of air directly from the atmosphere through an impact space located between the piston and the tool to provide an intermittent puffing air current, and leading the puffing air current out of the impact space of the machine and uniformly along the outer surface of said tool to clean the tool.
A hydraulic operated striking machine comprising a body part and a hydraulically operated reciprocating piston moving to and fro in the body and being accelerated to strike intermittently against a tool, wherein the improvement comprises valve means for intermittently admitting air directly from the atmosphere to an impact compression space located between the piston and the tool to provide an intermittent current of puffing air by action of the piston intermittently displacing air within an impact space located between the piston and the tool while striking the tool;
- and channel means for leading the resulting puffing air current out of the machine through a ring-shaped nozzle and uniformly along the surface of the tool to clean the tool.
A hydraulic striking machine comprising a body part and a hydraulically operated piston moving to and fro in the body and being accelerated to strike against a tool, wherein the improvement comprises inlet and outlet valve means arranged for passing an air current directly from the atmosphere through an impact compression space located between the piston and the tool so as to provide an intermittent current of puffing air displaced within an impact space located between the piston and the tool;
- filter means through which the air current is passed upstream of said inlet valve means;
- and channel means leading to an annular space around the tool, whereby the air current is led out of the machine uniformly along the surface of the tool.
