Development of technical solutions for modernization of the rotary feed mechanism of a quarry drilling rig

Abstract

This article substantiates and describes the design and operating principle of an electrohydromechanical rotator, presents the results of experimental studies of a prototype, shows ways to reduce dynamic loads and recommendations for improving the rotary-feeding mechanism of a drilling rig of the SBSh-250MNA-32 type. An improved kinematic and hydraulic diagram of an electrohydromechanical rotary-feeding mechanism and installation of a feed pump with a drive electric motor in the machine room of a drilling rig are presented. A design has also been developed for the electrohydromechanical rotary-feeding mechanism of the drilling rig, which can significantly reduce transmission vibrations, increase durability, and, as a result, the productivity of the machine.
