Abstract
A pulse drilling machine (') for the generating of shock wave pulses in a tool direction (R) has an impulse piston (′) with a housing (), and a device () for abruptly changing fluid pressure influencing the impulse piston to achieve a force resultant on the impulse piston in the tool direction to generate a shock wave pulse in a drill string (′) which is connected to the machine, a first fluid chamber (′) inside the housing which in operation is arranged to exert a pressure in the tool direction on the impulse piston. The machine has a fluid flow channel (), which includes a device for damping fluid flow flowing from the first fluid chamber through the fluid flow channel obtained when influencing the impulse piston (′) in a direction opposite to the tool direction (R) by rock reflexes in the drill string during drilling.
