Abstract
A regulating device is for use in a drill string between a drilling machine and a drill bit. The regulating device has a tubular female portion which at least partly encloses a tubular male portion; a helical coupling between the female portion and the male portion to allow a telescoping movement of the regulating device in both directions between a fully extended position and a fully retracted position, the movement of the regulating device occurring when there is a difference in rotational speed between the female portion and the male portion; a first biasing device which is arranged to exert a driving force to drive the regulating device towards its extended position; and a second biasing device.
