[0048] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the clutch mechanism for a coal mining machine according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a cutting motor 1 , a flexible shaft 2 , a positioning assembly 3 , a pull rod 4 and a pushing assembly 7 .

[0050] The cutting motor 1 serves as a power source to drive the cutting disc. The flexible shaft 2 can be fixedly mounted to the cutting motor 1 and is movable along its axial direction. The flexible shaft 2 has a transmission position and a separation position. In the transmission position, the flexible shaft 2 engages and disengages between the cutting motor 1 and the cutting disc. In the separation position, the flexible shaft 2 engages and disengages with the cutting motor 1 and the cutting disc.

[0051] For example, the flexible shaft 2 can be assembled in the cutting motor 1, and the flexible shaft 2 extends generally in the left-right direction, and the flexible shaft 2 can reciprocate in the left-right direction relative to the cutting motor 1. When the flexible shaft 2 moves to the left, the flexible shaft 2 can be switched to the transmission position. At this time, the left end of the flexible shaft 2 can be connected to the transmission shaft of the cutting motor 1, and the meshing teeth on the outer peripheral side of the flexible shaft 2 can mesh with the teeth on the drive shaft of the cutting disk, thereby achieving a transmission effect.

[0052] When the flexible shaft 2 moves to the right, the flexible shaft 2 can be switched to the separation position. At this time, the left end of the flexible shaft 2 can be separated from the transmission shaft of the cutting motor 1, and the meshing teeth on the outer peripheral side of the flexible shaft 2 can also be engaged and separated from the drive shaft of the cutting disk, thereby preventing transmission.

[0053] The positioning assembly 3 is detachably mounted on the cutting motor 1. For example, Figure 1As shown, the positioning assembly 3 may include a positioning cover 31 and a positioning plate 32. Both the positioning cover 31 and the positioning plate 32 may be disc-shaped. The positioning cover 31 may be connected and fixed to the cutting motor 1 by bolts, etc., and the positioning plate 32 may also be connected and fixed to the positioning cover 31 by bolts, etc.

[0054] The pull rod 4 is assembled on the positioning assembly 3 with an adjustable axial position. The extension direction of the pull rod 4 is consistent with the extension direction of the flexible shaft 2, and one end of the pull rod 4 is rotatably connected to the flexible shaft 2. The pull rod 4 is suitable for pushing and pulling the flexible shaft 2 to realize the switching of the transmission position and the separation position of the flexible shaft 2.

[0055] For example, Figure 1 As shown, both the positioning cover 31 and the positioning plate 32 may be provided with through holes, which generally extend in the left-right direction. The pull rod 4 may fit in the through holes of the positioning cover 31 and the positioning plate 32, and the pull rod 4 may move in the left-right direction. The left end of the pull rod 4 may be rotatably assembled with the right end of the flexible shaft 2. The right end of the flexible shaft 2 may be provided with an assembly groove, into which the left end of the pull rod 4 may be inserted. A bearing 5 and a baffle may be provided between the pull rod 4 and the flexible shaft 2, wherein the bearing 5 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the pull rod 4. The baffle may be connected and fixed to the flexible shaft 2, surrounding the outer circumference of the pull rod 4. The baffle is located on the right side of the bearing 5 and serves to stop the bearing 5 in the assembly groove.

[0056] The pushing assembly 7 is connected to the positioning assembly 3, and the pushing assembly 7 includes a pushing piece 72. The pushing piece 72 is suitable for abutting against the other end of the pull rod 4, and the pushing piece 72 can move axially along the pull rod 4 relative to the positioning assembly 3 to adjust the pushing force of the pull rod 4.

[0057] For example, the push assembly 7 may include a frame 73 that is fixed to the right side of the positioning plate 32 by bolts or the like, and a push member 72 that is assembled on the frame 73 and is adjustable in the left and right directions. When in use, the push member 72 can abut against the right end of the pull rod 4, thereby limiting the axial position of the pull rod 4.

[0058] Optionally, the positioning plate 32 may include a sleeve portion, which may be provided on the right side of the positioning plate 32. A base 6 may be mounted within the sleeve portion. The base 6 may be movable in the left-right direction relative to the sleeve portion, and the right end of the pull rod 4 may be fixedly connected to the base 6. During use, the pull rod 4 may be moved by pulling the base 6, thereby enhancing the guiding performance of the movement of the pull rod 4.

[0059] The clutch mechanism for the coal mining machine in the embodiment of the present invention is provided with a pushing assembly 7, which can stop the pull rod 4, thereby limiting the axial movement of the pull rod 4, avoiding the situation where the pull rod 4 is easily moved outward during the operation of the coal mining machine, and further avoiding the situation where the flexible shaft 2 will move axially after the pull rod 4 moves outward, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the axial engagement between the flexible shaft 2 and the cutting disk, and can improve the service life of the gear of the flexible shaft 2, and can also reduce the failure rate of the coal mining machine, thereby ensuring the continuity of production and improving production efficiency.

[0060] In addition, the stopping effect of the pushing assembly 7 can also be achieved by limiting the bearing 5 between the flexible shaft 2 and the pull rod 4, that is, the distance between the bearing 5 and the flexible shaft 2 can be limited within the allowable range, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the clearance of the bearing 5, ensuring the stable operation of the bearing 5, extending the service life of the bearing 5, and further reducing the failure rate.

[0061] In some embodiments, the pushing assembly 7 includes a frame body 73 and a nut member 74. The frame body 73 is connected to the positioning assembly 3. The pushing member 72 is threadedly assembled with the frame body 73 and can move axially relative to the frame body 73. The nut member 74 is threadedly assembled on the outer peripheral side of the pushing member 72. The nut member 74 is suitable for abutting against the frame body 73 to fix the adjusted pushing member 72.

[0062] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the frame 73 can be disc-shaped and can be fixed to the right side of the positioning plate 32 by bolts. A threaded hole can be provided in the center of the frame 73, and the outer periphery of the push member 72 can be provided with external threads, and the push member 72 can be threadedly assembled into the threaded hole of the frame 73. The nut member 74 has a threaded hole and can be assembled on the outer periphery of the push member 72.

[0063] During use, the push member 72 can be rotated to adjust its position in the left and right directions, thereby adjusting the force applied by the push member 72 to the pull rod 4, thereby limiting the pull rod 4 and the bearing 5, and maintaining a certain preload between the bearing 5 and the flexible shaft 2. After the push member 72 is adjusted into place, the nut member 74 can be rotated, and the nut member 74 can be moved to the left and fit with the frame 73. Through the threaded cooperation between the nut member 74 and the push member 72, and the threaded cooperation between the frame 73 and the push member 72, the push member 72 can be self-locked, thereby fixing the push member 72.

[0064] Therefore, while satisfying the main functions of the pushing member 72, the structure of the pushing assembly 7 can be simplified, meeting the use requirements of underground production.

[0065] In some embodiments, the pushing member 72 includes a first member 722, a second member 723 and an elastic member 76. The first member 722 is threadedly engaged with the frame body 73. The nut member 74 is threadedly assembled on the outer peripheral side of the first member 722. The second member 723 is connected to one end of the first member 722 toward the pull rod 4. The second member 723 can move axially relative to the first member 722, and the second member 723 is suitable for stopping with the pull rod 4. The elastic member 76 acts between the first member 722 and the second member 723. The elastic member 76 is suitable for buffering the force of the pull rod 4 on the second member 723 and resetting the second member 723.

[0066] like Figure 3 As shown, the first piece 722 can be rod-shaped, the external thread of the pushing piece 72 can be arranged on the outer peripheral side of the first piece 722, the first piece 722 can be engaged with the threaded hole of the frame 73, the second piece 723 can be arranged at the left end of the first piece 722, and the second piece 723 can be movable in the left and right directions relative to the first piece 722. For example, the second piece 723 can be sleeve-shaped, the second piece 723 can be sleeved on the left end of the first piece 722 and movable relative to the first piece 722.

[0067] The elastic member 76 may be a spring, and the elastic member 76 may be connected between the first member 722 and the second member 723 , wherein the left end of the elastic member 76 may be connected to the second member 723 , and the right end of the elastic member 76 may be connected to the first member 722 .

[0068] During use, the pull rod 4 will move outward, and the elastic member 76 has a buffering and energy storage effect, thereby buffering the movement of the pull rod 4, avoiding the rigid contact between the pull rod 4 and the push member 72, and extending the service life of the push assembly 7. In addition, it can also provide a buffer space for the movement of the bearing 5, thereby improving the flexibility of the bearing 5 and extending the service life of the bearing 5.

[0069] In some embodiments, one of the first piece 722 and the second piece 723 is provided with a guide groove 724, and the other one is provided with a guide portion 725, the guide groove 724 extends along the axial direction of the pull rod 4, the guide portion 725 guides and slides in the guide groove 724, the elastic piece 76 is assembled in the guide groove 724, and one end of the elastic piece 76 stops at the bottom of the guide groove 724, and the other end of the elastic piece 76 stops at the guide portion 725.

[0070] like Figure 4As shown, the first member 722 can be rod-shaped, the second member 723 can be nail-shaped, and the guide slot 724 can be provided at the left end of the first member 722. The guide slot 724 can be a blind slot and can extend in the left-right direction. The guide portion 725 can be integrally formed with the second member 723 and can be guided and fitted within the guide slot 724. The elastic member 76 can be installed within the guide slot 724, with the left end of the elastic member 76 abutting against the right end surface of the guide portion 725, and the right end of the elastic member 76 abutting against the bottom surface of the guide slot 724. This can limit the elastic member 76, allowing it to deform only in the left-right direction, and can also conceal the elastic member 76, improving the compactness of the assembly.

[0071] Optionally, a guide column portion is provided on the second piece 723, such as Figure 4 As shown, the guide column portion can be integrally arranged with the guide portion 725, the radial dimension of the guide column portion can be smaller than the radial dimension of the guide portion 725, and a portion of the elastic member 76 can be sleeved on the outer peripheral side of the guide column portion, thereby further improving the compactness of the assembly and enhancing the guiding effect.

[0072] In some embodiments, the frame 73 is provided with a protrusion 731, which protrudes from the surface of the frame 73 along the axial direction of the pull rod 4, and the push member 72 is threadedly assembled on the protrusion 731. Figure 2 As shown, the protrusion 731 can be integrally formed with the frame body 73. The protrusion 731 can be located at the center of the frame body 73 and on the left side of the frame body 73. A threaded hole can be provided in the protrusion 731 and can pass through the protrusion 731 in the left-right direction. The push member 72 can be threadedly assembled in the protrusion 731. The provision of the protrusion 731 can increase the length of the threaded hole, thereby increasing the fixing effect of the push member 72 and the structural strength of the assembly.

[0073] In some embodiments, the frame 73 is provided with an annular portion 732, the protrusion 731 is provided at the center of the frame 73, the annular portion 732 is provided at the edge of the frame 73 and surrounds the outer peripheral side of the protrusion 731, and the annular portion 732 is provided with a plurality of stepped holes 733, and the plurality of stepped holes 733 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the annular portion 732. The frame 73 is connected to the positioning assembly 3 through a plurality of fasteners 8, and the stepped holes 733 are suitable for allowing the fasteners 8 to pass through and for hiding the fasteners 8.

[0074] For example, Figure 2As shown, the frame body 73 can be disc-shaped, and the annular portion 732 can be provided at the circumferential edge of the frame body 73, and the annular portion 732 can be located on the left side of the frame body 73. The annular portion 732 can be provided with a plurality of stepped holes 733, and the plurality of stepped holes 733 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction of the annular portion 732. The stepped holes 733 include a large hole section and a small hole section, wherein the large hole section is located to the right of the small hole section. The frame body 73 can be connected and fixed to the positioning plate 32 by a plurality of fasteners 8, and the plurality of fasteners 8 pass through the plurality of stepped holes 733 in a one-to-one correspondence. The provision of the annular portion 732 can, on the one hand, ensure the structural strength when assembled with the fasteners 8, and on the other hand, can increase the space between the frame body 73 and the positioning plate 32, thereby meeting the installation requirements of the base 6.

[0075] The fasteners 8 can be long bolts, and each fastener 8 can simultaneously connect and fix the positioning cover 31, the positioning plate 32, and the frame 73. The ends of the fasteners 8 can be hidden in the large hole section of the stepped hole 733, thereby improving the compactness of the assembly and preventing the fasteners 8 from loosening easily.

[0076] In some embodiments, the push assembly 7 includes a plurality of first washers 71, which are clamped and fixed between the ends of the plurality of fasteners 8 and the positioning assembly 3. Figure 1 As shown, multiple first washers 71 can be assembled in multiple stepped holes 733 of the frame 73, and each first washer 71 can be clamped between the step surface in the stepped hole 733 and the end head of the fastener 8, thereby enhancing the assembly strength of the fastener 8.

[0077] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the second washer 75 of the push assembly 7 is clamped between the nut member 74 and the frame body 73. Thereby, the reverse force can be increased and self-locking can be achieved, and the fixing effect of the nut member 74 can be enhanced.

[0078] In some embodiments, the push member 72 is provided with a stopper 721, which is provided at the end of the push member 72 away from the pull rod 4. The stopper 721 is suitable for driving the nut member 74 to rotate and can stop the nut member 74. Figure 2 As shown, the stop portion 721 can be integrally formed at the right end of the pushing member 72. When in use, the pushing member 72 can be driven to rotate by rotating the stop portion 721. Secondly, the stop portion 721 can also form a stop limit for the nut member 74, thereby preventing the nut member 74 from falling off from the pushing member 72.

[0079] A coal mining machine according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

[0080] A coal shearer according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a clutch mechanism for the coal shearer. The clutch mechanism may be the clutch mechanism described in the above embodiments. The coal shearer may be a sawing, planing, drilling, or milling type. The clutch mechanism of the coal shearer according to an embodiment of the present invention can reduce the failure rate of the coal shearer and improve operational continuity.

[0081] The following describes a method for using the clutch mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0082] The method for using the clutch mechanism according to the embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0083] S1: Switch the flexible shaft 2 to the transmission position and secure the push assembly 7 to the positioning assembly 3. For example, first drive the base 6 to the left, directly aligning the base 6 with the positioning cover 31. The pull rod 4 will move synchronously with the base 6, and the flexible shaft 2 can be switched to the transmission position under the action of the pull rod 4. Then, the frame 73 of the push assembly 7 can be installed and secured to the positioning plate 32.

[0084] S2: Start the cutting disc of the coal mining machine. For example, the cutting motor 1 can be driven to operate at low power, thereby improving the safety of the operation. The cutting motor 1 can drive the cutting disc through the transmission of the flexible shaft 2.

[0085] S3: Move the pushing member 72 of the pushing assembly 7 to adjust the force between the pushing member 72 and the pull rod 4, and the position of the bearing 5 between the pull rod 4 and the flexible shaft 2. Specifically, the pushing member 72 can be rotated by a wrench, etc., and the pushing member 72 can be moved to the left and can be in contact with the right end of the pull rod 4. The rotation adjustment position of the pushing member 72 can be quantitatively adjusted. For example, the overall length of the pushing member 72 can be certain. After the pushing member 72 is rotated to the left and moved into position, the left movement distance of the pushing member 72 can be determined by measuring the length of the right side of the pushing member 72 on the frame 73, thereby achieving intuitive monitoring of the force between the pushing member 72 and the pull rod 4, and the position adjustment of the bearing 5 between the pull rod 4 and the flexible shaft 2, which facilitates adjustment into place.

[0086] S4: After the cutting disc is running stably, the push member 72 is fixed. For example, the cutting disc can be driven to run for a period of time. If the cutting disc runs stably and without any obstructions during this period of time, the push member 72 can then be installed and fixed by rotating the nut.

[0087] S5: After the cutting operation is completed, the pushing assembly 7 is removed and the flexible shaft 2 is switched to the separation position, thereby avoiding the situation where an accidental start-up may easily cause a safety accident.
