TITLE OF THE INVENTION DOWN-THE-HOLE HAMMER ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A down-the-hole hammer of the type adapted for receiving a bit at the lower end and for being connected to the lower end of a drill string through which compressed air is supplied to the hammer. The supply of air to the hammer when the bit at the lower end is resting on the bottom of the hole causes a piston in the hammer to reciprocate and to beat upon the upper end of the bit so that the material at the bottom of a hole is reduced. The piston, by reciprocating in the hammer, accomplishes the valving of the fluid which causes the piston to reciprocate, and when the hammer is lifted from the bottom of the hole and the bit moves downwardly, the piston ceases reciprocation while air blows off through the bit to the bottom thereof to clear debris from the hole being drilled.
