09/701022
Inventors:
Nils Alberto Heinke - Elkins WV 26241
Roger Dean Skaggs - Bonne Terre MO 63628
Stephen Mitchell Collinsworth - Stanton KY 40380
International Classification:
E21B 3313
US Classification:
166292, 166192
Abstract:
A plug for use in a borehole, the plug including a body member of a flexible material, the body member defining a floor portion, with a wall portion bounding and extending from the floor portion for engagement with an inner wall of the borehole for sealing the borehole. The invention also relates to a method of supporting materials in a borehole.

Blasting Method And Blasting Accessory

US Patent:
7387071, Jun 17, 2008
Filed:
Sep 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/574324
Inventors:
Nils Alberto Heinke - Elkins WV, US
Roger Dean Skaggs - Bonne Terre MO, US
Stephen Mitchell Collinsworth - Stanton KY, US
Assignee:
International Technologies, LLC - Elkins WV
International Classification:
F42D 3/00
US Classification:
102313, 102333, 299 13
Abstract:
A drill hole () extends into rock to be blasted. A blasting accessory () includes a container portion () for holding a predetermined volume of stemming material, and a spacer () for spacing the stemming material a predetermined distance from a surface, e. g. a blind bottom of the drill hole. The container portion has a top () surrounded by a dilatable, inverted skirt forming a seal (), and forms a support for a blasting substance like an explosive.

Drillhole Blasting

US Patent:
7052092, May 30, 2006
Filed:
Nov 19, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/432405
Inventors:
Stephen Mitchell Collinsworth - Stanton KY, US
Nils Alberto Heinke - Elkins WV, US
Roger Dean Skaggs - Bonne Terre MO, US
International Classification:
F24D 1/08, E21C 37/16
US Classification:
299 13, 102333
Abstract:
A blasting arrangement () includes drillholes () in a rock mass (). Blind ends () are drilled to a desired level and, if necessary, are adjusted as shown at () to said level. Each hole () is plugged by means of a plug (), which is protected by non flammable buffer material (), at a level () spaced from the end (). Explosive () is charged above the level () and the hole is tamped, shown at (). The holes are detonated desirably by detonators (), forcing the plugs () downwardly and compressing air in chambers () above the ends (). The weakest part of each hole, around the end (), is split causing a three dimensional zone of weakness at the level of the ends (). Air forced into the zone of weakness causes a fracture zone () at that level, inhibiting propagation of blasting shock waves and protecting the material underneath the level of the ends ().

Blasting

US Patent:
2007027, Nov 29, 2007
Filed:
Sep 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/574377
Inventors:
Nils Heinke - Elkins WV, US
Roger Skaggs - Bonne Terre MO, US
Stephen Collinsworth - Stanton KY, US
International Classification:
F42D 1/08
US Classification:
102312000
Abstract:
In blasting rock, a drill hole () is charged with spaced, composite layers (), () at different levels between an open mouth () and a blind bottom (). Each composite layer is supported on a plug (). Flowable plunger material (), e.g. drill cuttings, is supported on the respective plug followed by blast material (), topped by a further layer of plunger material (). The plunger material () at the top, is in the form of tamping. The composite layers are spaced respectively from one another and optionally, from the bottom (). Initiators () can be actuated by means of a controller to initiate the blasting material to displace the layers of plunger material at speed to collide, e.g. with the bottom and with one another to concentrate enemy at the collision sites.
