Hydraulically actuated tool for mechanically splitting rock-like material

摘要: A rock splitter tool is hydraulically actuated by a piston which moves tapered wedge between feathers mounted at one end in retaining means. The and wedge, as an assembly, are inserted into predrilled hole the driven forward hydraulic to move outwardly split rock. present invention directed toward providing moved wear plate portions retained clam shell clamp retainer readily separated removed enable inspection and/or replacement of any damaged apparatus. This enables existing apparatus be converted. Auxiliary utilizing jack hammer device also shown pulsation developing rotary valve adapted cycle it forwardly.
