Industry:Mining
A drill made by twisting a length of steel of rectangular or oval section into a spiral form, hence the term twist drill. Many hand-operated coal drills are of this type, and the rotation of the drill spiral removes the cuttings from the hole.
Industry:Mining
A drill mounting often made at the mine to suit the tunnel requirements. It usually comprises two girders strapped together to form a replica of the tunnel shape but smaller in size. The structure is mounted on wheels and provision is made for clamping the drills to various parts of the frame according to the drill-hole pattern in use. It contains a central opening to allow the passage of the loading machine, cars, or conveyor.
Industry:Mining
A drill rig consisting of a rail-track carriage on which is mounted a counterbalanced boom 10 ft (3 m) in length. For two-drill mounting, a crossbar is attached to the boom, and drill cradles can be fixed over or under the bar by swinging it through 180 degrees . For a four-drill mounting, two additional vertical columns are used; these are jacked to the floor and the drill carriage clamped to the track. The crossbars can be clamped to any required position on the vertical columns.
