An injection washer for an anchor system having a rod portion fixed to a surface, the injection washer including first and second opening portions arranged relative to each other along an axis parallel with the rod portion in use and which together define an opening through which the rod portion extends in use, the first opening portion having a smaller width than the second opening portion in a direction perpendicular to the rod portion and wherein a gap extends through a side of the injection washer into each of the first and second opening portions.

This invention puts forward a sectional modular large-deformation-resistant impact-resistant composite rock bolt and its assembling method. The outer anchor module of this composite rock bolt consists of the outer anchor end, anchor tubes and anchor piers, all of which are bonded with the borehole wall through the anchorage agent to act as a full-grouted bolt. And the inner anchor module consists of the outer anchor end, anchor piers, springs and threaded rod. The threaded rod, under the traction by the outer anchor end, presses the inner anchor springs to distribute the anchoring force to the anchor piers, which then pass such force as a pressure to the anchoring agent, thus playing the role of a pressure-dispersive anchor. Before the failure of the anchor tube, the inner anchor module is in parallel with the outer anchor module, playing the role of auxiliary anchorage on surrounding rock; after the failure of the anchor tube, such structure can yield and buffer effectively against the surrounding rock and realize secondary high-strength support timely.

A rock bolt assembly includes a rock bolt with an elongate body between distal and proximal ends, a tubular sleeve with first and second ends, proximal and distal ends of the bolt projecting from first and second ends of the sleeve, a load bearing barrel centrally bored to engage the rock bolt between the sleeve's first end and the bolt's proximal end, which barrel is adapted at a forward end to engage with the sleeve's second end in sealing contact, and which barrel has at least one grout conduit between the barrel's exterior surface and the bore, which at least one conduit defines a part of a grout passage which communicates the exterior surface of the barrel with an interior of the sleeve, when the barrel is engaged with the sleeve, and a seal which seals the grout passage to grout outflow but accommodates inflow of grout from a source.

Arrangement (10) for a rock grouting equipment for positioning at least one cartridge (11) is described. The arrangement incorporates at least one magazine (12), arranged around an axis (15). The magazine (12) incorporates at least one space (13), in which space (13) a plurality of said cartridges (11) is stored. The arrangement further incorporates at least one, radially extending, catching device (3, 14), arranged and formed such that it catches at least one cartridge (11) between itself and the inner surface (4) of the magazine body (12), when it performs a rotating movement around the axis (15). The invention also relates to a method.

A rock bolt includes an elongate metallic body having a first end and an opposed second end, a threaded portion at the second end, for attaching thereto and locating thereon, a nut and a bearing plate, a mechanical anchor at, or at least partially located on, a first end portion of the body and a first resistive anchor, located between the threaded portion and the mechanical anchor.

The present invention relates to a method, and an arrangement for mounting bolts in a material. The method comprises: storing actual data representing the actual positions of bore holes having been bored in the tunnel wall by a drill rig (300), a control unit (800) instructing a bolting device (200) to mount bolts in the bore holes based on the stored actual data.

An apparatus for injecting grouting material, a mining machine and a method of reinforcing rock surfaces by a grouting material is provided. The apparatus includes an injector head provided with a mixing device, which are both insertable into a drilled hole. The apparatus is for feeding resin mixtures having two different setting times. The injector head is connected to a fluid inlet arrangement having a common first feed line for slow and fast resin base components and a second feed line for a resin catalyst.

A rock bolt system includes a fitting having a main body defining a central opening configured to receive a rock bolt, with the main body defining a grout opening in fluid communication with the central opening, and a grout body defining a space between the main body and the grout body. The main body is rotatable relative to the grout body, with the grout body defining a resin port and a catalyst port. The resin port and the catalyst port are in fluid communication with the space and the grout opening of the main body. A rock bolt defines a central opening, with the central opening of the rock bolt configured to be in fluid communication with the central opening of the fitting when the rock bolt is secured to the fitting.

A pumpable resin system for installation of mine roof bolts includes a resin reservoir configured to receive resin, a catalyst reservoir configured to receive catalyst, a resin pump arrangement in fluid communication with the resin reservoir, a catalyst pump arrangement in fluid communication with the catalyst reservoir, a delivery line in fluid communication with at least one of the resin pump arrangement and the catalyst pump arrangement, and a bolter arm configured to drill boreholes and install mine roof bolts. The delivery line is configured to deliver resin and catalyst from the resin reservoir and the catalyst reservoir to a borehole via the bolter arm.
