  • the accumulator takes up the pressure fluid returning from the cylinder bore 12 through the passage 46 as well as streaming from the pressure producer through the inlet connection 35. Subsequently the piston 1648 is finally stopped by the pressure fluid acting on the rear face of the piston head 16, and in the valve position shown in FIG. 12 and there begins an acceleration of the piston in forward direction in order to perform 'an impact against the drill shank 28.
  • valve 48 pressure fluid from the inlet connection 35 as well as from the high-pressure side of the filled accumulator may now pass through the valve 48 in order to be directed via the grooves 67 to the inlet 25 and the rear face of the piston head 16, simultaneously with the forward face of the piston being connected to the exhaust connection 36 over the inlet 24, the valve 49, and the low pressure side of the accumulator.
  • the valves 48, 49 are in the position shown in FIG. 12.
  • the piston is now practically stationary as it has given up its energy of motion to the drill shank and consequently there is performed no subsequent pumping action back through the valve 48 to the accumulator.
  • the valves 48 and 49 turn into a position corresponding to the position shown in FIG. 9, which means the beginning of a new impact cycle.
  • the pressure accumulaton during operation of the tool absorbs high pressure peaks and inertial fluid shocks resulting from the operation of the valves 48, 49 and the piston 16-18. Likewise it takes up and stores pressure fluid at instants when such pressure fluid may not pass to the faces of the moving piston while it delivers pressure fluid to the cylinder bore at instants when the pressure producer fails to fully cover the fluid quantity needed.
  • the energy originally fed through the control valve system for performing the return stroke has to be exchanged or pumped through the valve casing in the form of pressure fluid not less than three times, that is to say firstly from the high pressure side to the front face of the piston head during the return acceleration, subsequently from the rear face to the pressure accumulator during retardation of the return stroke and finally back again from the pressure accumulator to the rear face of the piston head during acceleration of the piston in order to perform an impact. Consequently, an important feature for the eflicient operation of the impact tool described is the provision for small flow resistances in the control valve system. As readily seen the fluid passages in the valve system are formed with wide cross-sectional areas and as short as possible permitting the pressure fluid to flow with a minimum of disturbances.
  • the pressure peaks generated are utilized for loading up the pressure accumulator which subsequently returns its stored energy to the piston.
  • the pressure accumulator greatly moderates the peak pressures acting at the high pressure fluid inlet 46, so that no excessive pulsations may be reflected out through the inlet and outlet connections 35, 36. Owing to the coupling of the pressure accumulator in parallel with the valve system excessive pressure pulsations in the exhaust passage 47 may also be equalized by the accumulator.
  • the piston head 16 may be thrown past its usual reversal and stopping points in which case the damper Chambers 23 will prevent the piston from hitting against the ends of the tool casing or the blocks 19 and 20.
  • the pressure generated therein will act on the outer mantle of the blocks owing to the play between the blocks 19, 20 and the cylinder section 11 and will compress the blocks inwards thereby increasing the sealing action of the steel blocks 19 and 20 and counteracting the high-pressure tending to give rise to leakage.
