Device for clearing auger helix gap during drilling
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11952838B2) discloses a device designed to clear the helix gap of an auger efficiently. The device includes a retainer for attachment to a drill mast, a guide tube surrounding the auger with a drill helix, and a clearing element that extends into the helix gap. The guide tube and clearing element are designed to rotate freely about the drilling axis, allowing for effective clearing of the auger. The clearing element features a clearing plate with a receiving slit to accommodate the drill helix during the clearing process.
Furthermore, the patented device includes additional features such as guide rollers for resting on the drill helix, an annular receptacle for mounting the guide tube, and a carriage guide for easy displacement along the drill mast. The patent also covers the integration of this device into a drill assembly, where it can be used to clear remaining ground material from the helix gap of the auger during the drilling process. Overall, the patented device offers a practical solution for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of clearing operations during drilling, enhancing the overall performance of drilling equipment in various ground conditions.
