La charrue draineuse est essentiellement constituée par un age sur lequel est fixé un étançon portant à son extrémité inférieure une sorte d’obus. La machine est tirée [...] soit par un tracteur, soit, de préférence, par un câble s’enroulant sur un treuil placé à proximité de la future galerie; l'obus, en se déplaçant dans le sol, écarte la terre et laisse derrière lui une galerie à section circulaire dont les parois fissurées laissent passer l'eau. 2, record 2, French, - obus%20draineur
