Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of thick coal seam filling in coal mines, and in particular to a high-water filling method for old empty tunnels in re-mining roofs of thick coal seams. Background Art

[0002] my country boasts abundant coal resources, but the occurrence of coal seams varies greatly. The diverse geological conditions and complex geological structures dictate the diverse mining methods employed. In recent years, mining areas and mines have continuously explored and innovated coal seam mining methods. However, there remains a significant gap between achieving safe, high-yield, and efficient mining.

[0003] Mining thick coal seams requires not only considering the impact of mining the lower strata on the upper strata, but also the impact and disturbance damage of existing, empty roadways in the upper strata. When mining the lower coal seam after the upper roadway has been excavated, the stress distribution in the overburden becomes even more complex. After the upper roadway is excavated, when the lower coal seam is mined, the upper coal seam, already disturbed and damaged, undergoes a redistribution of stress fields within it. This regenerative structure, a redistributed stress field, will redistribute again, causing structural instability in the coal seam and further damage to the coal mass, seriously impacting the safety of mining the lower strata.

[0004] The existing research on thick coal seam secondary mining and filling mainly includes:

[0005] Application No. 202111543371,0 discloses a goaf grouting control method for re-mining old goafs in extra-thick coal seams, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Determine the plane boundary of the re-mining area; Step 2: Calculate and determine the vertical boundary of the re-mining control; Step 3: Determine the layout method of ground directional drilling and underground drainage drilling, exploration layer, horizontal spacing, construction sequence and drilling structure requirements; Step 4: Determine the grouting material, pressure, end standard, grouting sequence, grouting and drilling coordination and other parameters under different working conditions; Step 5: Check and reinforce the grouting filling effect.

[0006] Application No. 201710687657.3 discloses a method for re-mining a coal pillar at a stop-mining line in an extra-thick coal seam, comprising the following steps:

[0007] (1) Simulate the location of the transport drift and track drift of the coal pillar re-mining working face; (2) Conduct comprehensive detection of the goaf of the original working face where the coal pillar of the stop mining line of the extra-thick coal seam is located to eliminate safety hazards; (3) Excavate a tunnel along the advancing direction of the coal pillar re-mining working face in the upper part of the extra-thick coal seam to fill the tunnel next to the tunnel; (4) Excavate the coal pillar re-mining working face return tunnel and auxiliary inclined tunnels to form a complete production system and arrange the coal pillar re-mining working face; (5) Drill holes from top to bottom in the tunnel floor to make filling pipelines; (6) Prepare filling paste and evenly inject it into the transport drift near the goaf of the original working face along the above-mentioned filling pipeline; (7) Carry out comprehensive mining on the coal pillar re-mining working face.

[0008] Although the above-mentioned existing technologies have filled the re-mining area, the filling effect needs to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0051] Combined with the above device, the high water filling method of old empty roadway in the roof of thick coal seam is described in detail. Figure 3 shown.

[0052] Step 1: According to the overlapping length between the working face and the old empty roadway above the working face, formulate and install the mixing spiral, slurry mixing tank, slurry delivery pipe 1 and slurry delivery pipe 2;
