Abstract: In a first aspect the invention relates to a drill-string-forming drill tube which includes a channel (15) intended for passing flushing liquid, inside of which there is a restriction which forms a seat (14) for a valve body (16) serving as a check valve. Said drill tube comprises, in addition to a partly spherical skittle member (17) for engagement in the seat (14), two or more tangentially separated blocking elements (21). The purpose of said elements is, when flushing liquid is fed from the valve seat towards a second restriction distanced therefrom, to stop the valve body against said second restriction without sealing thereagainst. Therefore, one and the same drill tube may be used for upwardly directed as well as downwardly directed drilling. In a second aspect, the invention relates to the valve body as such.

Abstract: A method for reducing pollution in a mono-mode air-air combustion engine having an intake and compression chamber, connected to a constant volume expansion chamber, which is connected in turn to an expansion and exhaust chamber. External air is drawn into the intake chamber and compressed to an increased pressure and temperature. The compressed air is transferred to the constant volume expansion chamber, wherein additional, ambient temperature, compressed air is injected therein. The injected air, when contacting the elevated pressure and temperature of the compressed air causes an expansion of the air within the constant volume expansion chamber. The energy associated with the air expansion is transferred to the expansion and exhaust chamber, wherein the continued compressed air expansion produces a work force that is imparted to a piston. The energy depleted air is then exhausted through an exhaust value.
