[0026] After the two mine cars are in a safe and fixed state, the worker enters the connection between the two mine cars to connect or disconnect the connecting piece. If it is to disconnect the connecting piece, after the connecting piece is disconnected, the car blocking mechanism 4 releases the front mine car 2, and the car pushing mechanism 5 pushes the rear mine car 3 and the front mine car 2 to the positions to be reached, respectively, and the mine car separation process is completed. This process is also applicable to the separation of multiple mine cars.
