| Abstract |
To reduce total vibration levels to permissible values, it is proposed to mount motors and pumps on wooden platforms which rest on rubber cylinders cut from worn-out separators from the compensators of drilling pumps. To reduce heat loss from workers' hands, which is a predisposing factor of vibration disease, it is recommended to fit the handles of the drilling winch with wooden covers. The direction of prevailing winds should be kept in mind when laying out drilling sites, so that the quarters of the drilling crew will be placed up-wind from the hole. Proper siting of diesel equipment, and the use of adequate mufflers, can permit the distance between the borehole and workers' quarters to be reduced while maintaining acceptable noise levels in the quarters. |
