Hand Powered Impact Boring Tool

Abstract

A hand powered impact boring tool is used to bore small diameter holes underneath obstructions so utility cables can be buried underground and beneath those obstructions. Making use of a manual powered slide hammer striking against a forward anvil creates the impact force that drives the shaft and tip through the ground. Sliding the hammer backwards against the reverse anvil will back the tool out of the ground leaving a hole for cable to be passed through.

1 . What I claim as my invention is a hand powered impact boring tool having a axial motion, comprising of:
 (a) A tip located on the end of the shaft.   (b) A shaft that continues into the slide rail.   (c) A forward anvil at one end of the slide rail dividing the shaft from the slide rail, (forward axial action).   (D) A reverse anvil at the opposing end of the slide rail from the forward anvil, (reversing axial action).   (e) A slide hammer positioned freely, sliding, between the two anvils and on the slide rail; creating the impact force when striking either anvil.   
     
     
         2 . The hand powered impact boring tool is man-powered and does not require an external power source such as electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic. 
     
     
         3 . The hand powered impact boring tool makes a linear hole/void in any direction but is intended for horizontal use.
