A PILE DRIVING ASSEMBLY AND A FOLLOWER
A pile driving assembly for installing a pile in an underwater bottom comprises a tubular pile and a hammer for driving the pile into an underwater bottom. The assembly is provided with a soil remover for removing soil inside the pile. The soil remover is located below the hammer and remote from a lower end of the pile in assembled operating condition.
Method and system for controlling the movement of a mast of drilling machine
The method comprises the following operations: delivering a moving power to at least one linear actuator (1, 7) arranged to move a mast (5) mounted so as to swing with respect to a self-propelled structure (3) among a plurality of moving operating configurations; delivering an actuating power to a winch (8) which is supported by said self-propelled structure (3) and adapted to allow the winding or unwinding of a respective traction element which is constrained to a drilling assembly, in particular a bank of telescopic or kelly bars (12) to which a drilling tool can be associated; at least temporarily preventing a relative axial movement between said drilling assembly (12) and said mast (5) during the passage between at least two consecutive operating configurations; and automatically controlling the delivery of said moving power in a coordinated manner with the delivery of said actuating power when said axial movement is hindered.
