A drilling rig includes a base and a rotation unit for drilling a hole in a mine surface. The rotation unit is moveably coupled to the base. The drilling rig further includes a cable feed device for feeding a cable bolt into the hole created by the rotation unit. The cable feed device is moveably coupled to the base and includes a pair of wheels and a transmission. The cable bolt is received between the pair of wheels. The transmission is coupled between the rotation unit and at least one of the wheels to transmit power from the rotation unit to at least one of the wheels.

Roof bolting cable bolt feeding device

A cable bolt lifting and feeding device that is a lightweight unit that mounts into a drill rig rotation unit. The device uses the mechanical power provided in the rotation unit to drive a set of wheels that engage with the cable bolt, causing the cable bolt to be pushed through the device and into a pre-drilled hole.
