Abstract

The invention refers to a method for the production of a metal mining plug with grooves applied to the exterior thereof. In order to achieve an easy and simple manufacture of the metal mining plug and to achieve at the same time a long durability of the metal mining plug when being used in rock mass, a metal mining plug is formed of a flat material which is provided with grooves and which is formed to a tube by means of cold rolling.

Claims (9)

1 . A method for producing a metal mining plug ( 1 ) with grooves ( 2 ) applied to the exterior thereof by forming a flat material ( 14 ), characterized in that a flat material ( 14 ) is provided with the grooves ( 2 ) and formed to a tube by means of cold rolling, and that the longitudinal sides of the material are welded together after the forming process.

2 . A metal mining plug ( 1 ) manufactured according to the method of claim 1 , characterized in that the grooves ( 2 ) have a longitudinal direction orthogonally or at an angle to the longitudinal axis ( 11 ) of the tube.

3 . A metal mining plug ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the grooves ( 2 ) are arranged in rows ( 5 , 5 a , 6 and 6 a ) parallel to the longitudinal axis ( 11 ) of the tube.

4 . A metal mining plug ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the grooves ( 2 ) are arranged in rows ( 5 , 5 a , 6 and 6 a ).

5 . A metal mining plug ( 1 ) as claimed in claims, characterized in that the grooves ( 2 ) are arranged in a row ( 5 , 5 a , 6 or 6 a ) at an identical distance to one another.

6 . A metal mining plug ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the grooves ( 2 ) of the one row ( 5 , 5 a , 6 or 6 a ) are arranged offset in the height to the grooves ( 2 ) of at least another row ( 5 , 5 a , 6 or 6 a ).

7 . A metal mining plug ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that all grooves ( 2 ) have the same shape.

8 . A metal mining plug ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that all grooves ( 2 ) have the same length.

9 . A metal mining plug ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the grooves ( 2 ) have a triangular cross section, wherein the apex of the triangle directed into the interior of the metal mining plug is rounded.
