Abstract

A drilling tool, in particular for use in axially striking drive machines for drilling in rock, concrete or the like, which drilling tool is designed from both a vibration point of view by varying the abrupt changes in cross-section and from a drilling point of view by optimising the transport of the drilling dust. In order to arrange, from a vibration point of view, the abrupt changes in cross section, caused by the flute webs, in asymmetrically arranged axial positions, the inclination of the conveying flute constantly changes its size within a lead. Furthermore, the radial, tangential and axial force vector which acts on the drilling dust constantly changes its size, the radial force vector also changing its direction. In this way, the drilling dust is subjected to a constantly changing acceleration.
