The invention discloses a buffering material receiving device for a coal mine. The buffering material receiving device comprises a material receiving box, a feeding port is formed in the top end of the material receiving box, a material receiving plate and a buffering air cylinder are hinged to one side of the inner wall of the material receiving box, the material receiving plate is located at the bottom end of the feeding port, the bottom end of the buffering air cylinder is located at the bottom end of the material receiving plate, connecting lugs are hinged to the top end of the material receiving plate, sliding blocks are fixedly connected to the top ends of the connecting lugs, rolling wheels are rotatably connected to the top ends of the sliding blocks, the sliding blocks matched with the sliding blocks are arranged at the bottom end of the material receiving plate, the sliding blocks are slidably connected with sliding grooves through the rolling wheels. The sliding blocks are additionally arranged at the top end of the connecting lug, the sliding grooves drive the rolling wheels to roll, meanwhile, the rolling wheels drive the sliding blocks to move downwards, the sliding blocks compress the top end of the buffer air cylinder through the connecting lugs, when materials leave the surface of the material receiving plate, the buffer air cylinder drives the material receiving plate to reset, and under the action of the sliding blocks and the sliding grooves, downward moving, resetting and moving stability of the material receiving plate is guaranteed; under the action of the rollers, the moving friction force between the sliding blocks and the sliding grooves is reduced.
