Abstract

Process and device for transmitting data signals and/or control signals in a pipe train (1) during operation of a drilling implement, in particular process and device for transmitting data signals and/or control signals from the borehole to the surface. Data in the form of data signals and/or control signals are retransmitted between a data processing unit and/or control unit and a processor (10) via a transmission section between a transmitter unit (8, 11, 18, 30) and a receiver unit (9, 14, 20, 31). In order in particular to transmit local or remote data to the processor while taking account of the operating conditions prevailing in the pipe train, the data signals and/or control signals are transmitted via the transmission section between the transmitter and receiver units or via one or more alternating magnetic fields, or the data received by the transmitter unit (8, 11, 18, 30) are retransmitted to the receiver unit (9, 14, 20, 31) via the transmission section in the form of audio signals. In devices according to the invention, the transmission section includes magnetically inductive couplers (18, 20), or an audio sensor (8, 11, 30) and an audio receiver (9, 14, 31).
