[0040] Slurry is prepared in slurry mixing tank 1. During slurry preparation, slurry flow control valve 103 is closed, and air volume control valve 102 is adjusted to regulate the stirring speed. After slurry preparation is completed, the stirring speed is reduced and slurry flow control valve 103 is opened. Slurry is drawn in by the left suction pump 23 of the double suction pump 2, passes through slurry flow stabilizer 22 and slurry output control valve 21, and enters the slurry inlet 52 of the slurry-foam mixer 5. Liquid is prepared in liquid tank 7.

Bubbles are formed at the foam outlet 44 by the foaming element 43 and enter the pipeline to the foam inlet 51 of the slurry-foam mixer 5. The bubbles and slurry are mixed evenly by the agitator 53 and reach the mixed slurry outlet 54. Through the pipeline, they reach the mixed slurry inlet 62 of the spray gun 6. The atomizing power inlet 61 of the spray gun pushes the mixed slurry atomized and sprayed out.
[0041] The working principle of the underground foaming spraying equipment for coal mines provided by this invention is as follows:
[0042] During operation, the slurry mixing tank 1 is used for slurry preparation, and the liquid tank 7 is used for liquid preparation. The slurry is drawn into the pump body by the double suction pump 2 through the pipeline 8. The left pump body 23 is the slurry suction pump, which draws in the slurry and delivers it to the slurry-foam mixer 5 through the pipeline. The right pump body 24 is the liquid suction pump, which draws in the liquid and delivers it to the foam maker 4 through the pipeline. The generated foam enters the slurry-foam mixer 5 through the pipeline. After mixing, the slurry is transported to the spray gun through the pipeline.
[0043] The slurry mixing tank 1 is composed of a pneumatic actuator 101, an air volume control valve 102, and a slurry flow control valve 103. It has a small overall size and compact structure, and can prepare 120kg of slurry at a time. The mixing speed is adjustable from 0 to 360r / min.
[0044] The dual suction pump 2 consists of a slurry flow control valve 21, a slurry flow stabilizer 22, a slurry suction pump 23, a liquid suction pump 24, a liquid flow stabilizer 25, and a liquid flow control valve 26. The slurry flow and liquid flow are adjusted according to the required slurry flow rate. The conventional slurry flow rate is 0.6 m3 / h, and the liquid flow rate is 0.2 m3 / h. The flow stabilizer stabilizes the flow rate to make the mixing more uniform.
[0045] The air mixer 3 consists of a first air pressure regulating valve 31, a first air volume regulating valve 32, a second air pressure regulating valve 33, and a second air volume regulating valve 34. The first air pressure regulating valve 31 provides the foaming power, and stable power can make the foaming effect reach the best. The pressure value of the first air pressure regulating valve 31 is 0.4MPa and the flow rate is 0.4m3 / min. The first air volume regulating valve 32 provides the atomization power of the spray gun. Stable pressure and flow rate can make the atomization effect of the spray gun reach the best and the coating smoothness is higher. The pressure value of the first air volume regulating valve 32 is 0.05MPa and the flow rate is 0.1m3 / min.
[0046] The foaming power provided by the first gas volume regulating valve 32 enters the power end 41 and enters the slurry to form bubbles in the foaming element 43.
[0047] The slurry mixer 5 consists of a bubble inlet 51, a slurry inlet 52, a stirrer 53, and a mixed slurry outlet 54. The slurry inlet adopts a 45° inclined structure, which makes the slurry inlet pipe smoother and prevents back pressure and backflow.
[0048] The spray gun 6 consists of a spray gun atomizing power inlet 61, a mixing slurry inlet 62, and an atomizing port 63.
[0049] The first air pressure regulating valve 31, the first air volume regulating valve 32, the second air pressure regulating valve 33, the second air volume regulating valve 34, the slurry output control valve 24, and the liquid output control valve 26 in the air mixer 3 are adjusted according to the slurry flow rate. Under the condition that the flow rate is constant, it only needs to be adjusted once when used for the first time. After adjustment, it is locked and can be used stably.
[0050] Compared with related technologies, the foaming spraying equipment for underground coal mines provided by this invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0051] This invention provides a foaming spraying device for underground coal mines. The device comprises a slurry mixing tank 1, a dual-suction pump 2, an air mixer 3, a foam maker 4, a slurry-foam mixer 5, a spray gun 6, a liquid tank 7, and pipelines 8, all working in concert. The device is small in size and compact in structure, with a spraying distance exceeding 30 meters. The foaming element 43 in the foam maker 4 and the agitator 53 in the slurry-foam mixer 5 are independently developed small-volume parts, contributing to the overall small size and ease of use and replacement. The dual-suction pump 2 is suitable for suctioning viscous slurries, with a maximum pressure reaching 3 MPa. This addresses the needs of physical foaming equipment in underground coal mines, achieving the requirements for suctioning viscous slurries, high slurry pressure, and long-distance spraying.
