Abstract

Design development of DTH air hammers is discussed with a view to increasing efficiency of rock drilling. The problem is handled by making hammering tool with curvilinear frees surfaces which are in no contact with the hammer body. This ensures generation of rock-breaking impact at the minimum energy input. New designs of hammering tools are developed for DTH air hammer models PP110EN and PP110NK designed at the Institute of Mining, SB RAS. Experiments prove that selection of rational shape of hammering tools allows improving performance of DTH air hammers by 15% at the average.
