Fluid circulating apparatus for drill
There is provided a fluid circulating apparatus for a drill that requires only a small amount of coolant, as a suspension is collected and reused. The apparatus (1) for use with a drill (2) includes a suspension collecting device (3) that collects a suspension derived from the coolant mixed with chippings (S) through cutting and drilling operations, a suspension filtering device that filters off the chippings included in the suspension, thereby making the resultant coolant to be stored in a reservoir (4a), and a coolant supplying means that supplies the coolant obtained by the suspension filtering device and stored in the reservoir to the bit. The suspension collecting device includes a vacuum pump used to collect the suspension from a water-receiving pad so provided as to surround a point to be drilled by changing a pressure in the reservoir to subatmospheric pressure.
