The invention relates to the mining and conveying field of a fully-mechanized coal mining face of an underground coal mine, in particular to a big-lump-coal crushing device for a medium-thickness-coal-seam face and a crushing process, and solves the problem that the unloading point of a face conveyor and the entry point of a reversed loader are blocked by big lump coal. The big-lump-coal crushing device comprises a fixed base, a revolving seat, a revolving shaft, a rocker arm, a vertical swinging oil cylinder, a pressing block, a crushing fixing frame, a hydraulic hammer attitude control oil cylinder, a small connecting rod, a crushing rotating frame, a fully-hydraulic crushing hammer, a horizontal swinging oil cylinder and a scraper bucket, wherein the fully-hydraulic crushing hammer can be adjusted in the horizontal direction, the vertical direction, the fore-and-after direction, the crushing angle and the like, and the scraper bucket can be flexibly mounted and dismounted according to requirements of the face. The crushing process adopts the optimal crushing angle to respectively crush still big lump coal and moving big lump coal, and has a relatively high crushing efficiency. The big-lump-coal crushing device is compact in structure and simple to operate, can reduce the labor intensity of workers, and effectively meets the quick-mining and quick-pushing objective demand of the fully-mechanized coal mining face of a coal mine.
