Internal combustion type pile driver

摘要

An internal combustion type pile driver which has a cylinder, a ram adapted to slide within this cylinder, an anvil fitted into the bottom end of the cylinder and an air intake/exhaust port fixedly provided on said cylinder, is improved so that the height of rise of the ram may be adjustable. The improvement exists in providing a choke opening communicating the interior of the cylinder with the atmosphere for the purpose of adjusting a combustion gas pressure in a cylinder wall between the air intake/exhaust port and a combustion chamber, and either a choke plug or a blind plug is adapted to be fitted in to this choke opening.
