Abstract
In a rock drilling rig for tunnel driving the boom or booms (41,42) that carry the rock drills (55,56) are pivotably mounted on rotatable discs 32. The discs32 are parts of mountings (29, 30) that are mounted on support plates (21,22). The support plates (21, 22) are pivotable so that the centre axes (45,46) of the discs 32 can be swung along part-circular paths. The rig permits driving of larger tunnel areas than prior art rigs of comparable size and cost.
Description
- This invention relates to a rock drilling rig for tunnel driving.
- It is an object of the invention to provide a rock drilling rig by which larger tunnel areas can be drilled than can be drilled by means of prior art rigs of comparable size and costs.
- The invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
- Fig. 1 is a side view of a drilling rig according to the invention.
- Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the rig shown in Fig. 1.
- Fig. 3 is a front view seen as indicated by arrows 3-3 in Fig. 1, but two rock drill boom structures that are shown in Figs. 1 and 2 are not shown in Fig. 3.
