[0002] In the application of unit supports in gob-side entries, the most critical technology is to ensure the rapid support movement of unit supports. The unit support needs to move from both sides of the roadway to the center line of the roadway, then move along the center line of the roadway, and then move from the center of the roadway to the designated support position to form a cyclic and non-repeated support. There are various traditional underground auxiliary transportation methods, which are affected by various factors such as gas, coal dust, and terrain, and are mainly divided into track transportation and trackless transportation. Track transportation mainly includes single-track hoists, mine winches, and endless-rope haulage vehicles, etc., and trackless transportation mainly refers to the transportation of trackless rubber-tired vehicles. With the continuous in-depth research, currently, new types of underground auxiliary transportation methods include a mine fork-mounted unit support carrier vehicle disclosed in CN112390195A and a mine explosion-proof battery-driven new energy unit support carrier vehicle disclosed in CN114803960A. However, the handling mechanisms of such unit support carrier vehicles have the following problems:

[0003] 1. When the fork plate rotates to ±90°, the parts of the fork plate on both sides of the rotary oil cylinder are in a suspended state and a state supported by the cantilever beam respectively. When inserting into the unit support, the two parts are unevenly stressed, and the fork plate is prone to deformation;

[0004] 2. The overall structure of the handling mechanism is complex and large in volume. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention provides a folding and flipping unit support handling mechanism to solve the problems described in the background art.

[0006] The above-mentioned folding and flipping unit support handling mechanism includes a rear frame, an intermediate frame, an intermediate frame flipping drive part, a front frame, a front frame flipping drive part, a support shovel plate, and a shovel plate flipping drive part; there are two groups of vertically opposite hinge points on the intermediate frame, and the two groups of hinge points are respectively hinged to the rear frame and the front frame; the intermediate frame is driven by the intermediate frame flipping drive part to flip left and right around the hinge point between the intermediate frame and the rear frame, with a minimum flipping angle of 0 and a maximum flipping angle of 90°; the front frame is driven by the front frame flipping drive part to flip left and right around the hinge point between the intermediate frame and the front frame, with a minimum flipping angle of 0 and a maximum flipping angle of 90°; the support shovel plate is hinged to the front side of the front frame and is driven by the shovel plate flipping drive part to flip up and down, with a minimum flipping angle of 0 and a maximum flipping angle of 90°.

[0007] Furthermore, the intermediate frame is connected to the rear frame through hinge ears and hinge shafts, the front frame is connected to the intermediate frame through hinge ears and hinge shafts, and the support shovel plate is connected to the front frame through hinge ears and hinge shafts.

[0008] Furthermore, the intermediate frame flipping drive unit, the front frame flipping drive unit, and the shovel plate flipping drive unit are all oil cylinders.

[0009] Furthermore, an avoidance groove is provided at the top of the intermediate frame and the rear frame. An oil cylinder mounting ear Ⅰ is installed on the avoidance groove, and both ends of the intermediate frame flipping oil cylinder are hinged to the two oil cylinder mounting ears Ⅰ respectively; an avoidance hole is provided in the middle of the front frame, and oil cylinder mounting ears Ⅱ are provided at the top of the avoidance hole and the front side of the intermediate frame.

[0010] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. When the support shovel plate rotates to the left or right and is inserted into the unit support, the two support shovel plates are evenly stressed, the rotating shaft is not easily deformed, and the service life is long;

[0012] 2. The overall structure of the handling mechanism is simple, and the volume is small when the support shovel plate, the front frame, and the intermediate frame are completely retracted;

[0013] 3. This mechanism can realize the 90° flipping of the support shovel plate and can also realize the function of the support shovel plate swinging to the left and right sides, meeting the functions required for unit support handling, effectively improving the handling efficiency of the unit support, reducing the labor intensity, and ensuring the safety of the support handling process.
