Patent attributes
The invention relates to a rock drill (1) for rotational and percussive action, comprising a drill head (2), a conveying helix (3), a clamping shank and a longitudinal drill axis (L), wherein the drill head (2) has at least one secondary cutting element (5a, 5b) with a front and a rear side face (10a, 10b) and wherein the secondary cutting element (5a, 5b) has a center of mass (M) and a cutting edge (11), the center of mass (M) and the cutting edge (11) defining a first plane (E1), the front side face (10a) of the secondary cutting element (5a, 5b) defining a second plane (E2) and the rear side face (10b) of the secondary cutting element (5a, 5b) defining a third plane (E3). In this arrangement, the longitudinal drill axis (L) intersects the first plane (E1) at a first point of intersection (S1), the longitudinal drill axis (L) intersects the second plane (E2) and/or the third plane (E3) at a second and/or third point of intersection (S2, S3), the longitudinal drill axis (L) and the first plane (E1) form a first acute angle (1) in the direction of advancement (x) of the rock drill (1) and the longitudinal drill axis (L) and the second and/or third plane (E2, E3) form a second and/or third acute angle (2, 3) in the direction of advancement (x) of the rock drill (1).
