PILING MACHINE AND METHOD OF DRIVING PILE ELEMENTS IN SOIL

摘要

FIELD: construction.;SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a piling machine and a method for driving a pile element into the soil. The head part of the pile element is placed in a driving head on the underside of a drive impact unit, which is moved by a main winch and a main rope along a mast, and the pile element is driven to the vertical position for piling into the soil. The pile element is lifted by means of an auxiliary winch with an auxiliary rope from the lying position to the approximately vertical piling position, in which the head part of the pile element enters the driving head of the impact unit. During lifting the pile element to be driven, the main winch and the auxiliary winch are automatically controlled by control means simultaneously, so that during the lifting, the head part of the pile element is pressed against the driving head with a predetermined clamping force.;EFFECT: improving the work safety.;11 cl, 3 dwg
