Patent attributes
A hydraulic hammering device that uses a scheme in which a front chamber is switched into communication with a low-pressure circuit when a piston advances, wherein occurrences of “galling” to the piston at a sliding contact portion with a front-chamber liner is reduced. The front chamber has the front-chamber liner fitted to an inner surface of a cylinder. A hydraulic chamber space communicating with the front chamber and filled with hydraulic oil is formed as a cushion chamber on the inner peripheral surface of a rear portion of the front-chamber liner. The cushion chamber has a second drain circuit (from first end face grooves to slits to second end face grooves), which is provided separately from a drain circuit that guides the hydraulic fluid passing through a liner bearing of the front-chamber liner to the low-pressure circuit.
