[0002] The reserves of thin coal seams in China account for about 18% of the total coal reserves in China. Since thin coal seams are mostly located in the marginal zones of coalfields, the occurrence conditions are complex, and geological structures such as faults, folds, undulations and parting are often present in the working face of thin coal seams. Moreover, due to the mining height being mostly below 1.5 m, the space is narrow, and the equipment for thin coal seams is required to have higher strength and a more flexible structure. Although the existing thin coal seam shearer can meet the requirements of cutting in thin coal seams in terms of height, the overall structure is relatively complex due to the influence of the design of traditional shearer, which increases the failure points of the shearer, and the machine body is relatively long, which requires wider transportation roadway and ventilation roadway, increases the tunneling cost, and the long machine body needs to be constantly adjusted to cut the triangular coal at both ends of the coal mining face, which increases the cutting time.
