Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of automatic drilling in coal mines, and relates to an automatic drill pipe feeding device, specifically an automatic drill pipe feeding system and automatic control method for underground coal mines. Background Technology
[0002] Drilling operations in coal mines are a crucial part of coal mining and exploration. Drill rods are commonly used tools to lower drill bits underground to obtain information about the ore layer structure and geological conditions. However, due to the harsh underground environment, confined working space, and inherent safety risks, traditional methods of manually loading and sorting drill rods present numerous problems.
[0003] Traditional underground drill pipe loading in coal mines relies primarily on manual operation. Drill pipes are typically stored in boxes on racks, requiring manual sorting to extract the individual pipes needed. For drill pipes shorter than 1.5 meters, one person can manage this, but for pipes longer than 1.5 meters, it becomes quite difficult, especially for longer and heavier pipes. A single drill rod can weigh up to 54 kg, requiring two or even three people to work together to sort and load them. This process is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive with low production efficiency, but it also easily leads to accidental injury to workers, posing a personal safety risk.
[0004] To reduce the labor intensity of workers and automate the sorting process, an automatic drill rod feeding device is needed. This device must be able to accommodate a large number of drill rods at once, no less than 200 rods; it must also be able to sort out only one drill rod at a time from the large batch; and it must have a certain tolerance for errors, meaning that drill rods often exhibit misalignment, displacement, or cross-placement, and the automatic feeding device must also be able to automatically sort and feed the drill rods. This device must be highly reliable, have good error tolerance, be inexpensive, and be highly practical; it should improve work efficiency, reduce risks, and improve working conditions.
[0005] The application of this automatic feeder for tracked drill pipes in coal mines will significantly improve the efficiency of underground drilling operations, reduce personal safety risks, improve working conditions, and bring huge economic and social benefits to coal mining and mineral exploration. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic feed system and automatic control method for drill rods in underground coal mines, so as to solve the technical problem of low feed rod sorting efficiency in the existing technology.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] An automatic drill pipe feeding system for underground coal mines includes a movable vehicle platform, a feeding mechanism distributed laterally in the middle of the vehicle platform, and a control module at the longitudinal front end of the vehicle platform.

[0010] A horizontal material distribution structure is provided on the first crossbeam. The horizontal material distribution structure includes a first main shaft and a second main shaft arranged sequentially between the two first crossbeams in a transverse direction. First drive wheels are sleeved on both ends of the first main shaft, and first driven wheels are provided on both ends of the second main shaft. A first flexible transmission belt is provided on both the first drive wheels and the first driven wheels.

[0017] The column-fixed reversing structure includes a column-fixed reversing top plate and a column-fixed reversing baffle fixed to the side wall of the first column;
[0018] A storage queuing structure is provided on the top of the pair of first columns. The storage queuing structure includes a pair of storage support frames respectively provided on the top of the first columns. Each storage support frame has a baffle at its end. A connecting rod is provided between the storage support frames. A storage inclined guide plate parallel to the storage support frame is provided on the connecting rod. The pair of storage support frames is provided with a pair of upper limit limit cylinders for queuing positions and a pair of lower limit limit cylinders for queuing positions.

[0019] A storage station sensor is installed at the top of the storage station, and a temporary storage station sensor is installed on the temporary storage station.
[0020] The first magnetic gripping mechanism or the second magnetic gripping mechanism includes a fixed housing disposed within the first flexible conveyor belt or the second flexible conveyor belt. A rotating main shaft is disposed inside the fixed housing. Rotary bearings are fitted at both ends of the rotating main shaft and extend out of the two end faces of the fixed housing respectively. A moving end rotating handle is disposed at one end of the rotating main shaft near the beam reversing mechanism or the column reversing mechanism, and a fixed end rotating handle is disposed at the other end of the rotating main shaft near the beam reversing mechanism or the column reversing mechanism. The moving end rotating handle and the fixed end rotating handle are at different angles.

[0022] This invention also includes the following technical features:
[0023] The fixed housing includes a stator support frame, which has a stator cavity inside. The two axial end faces of the stator support frame have stator support holes that communicate with the stator cavity.
[0024] The rotating spindle includes a rotating spindle magnet support section disposed in the stator cavity and rotating spindle bearing sections disposed at both ends of the rotating spindle magnet support section. Each of the two rotating spindle bearing sections is provided with a rotating spindle connecting section. The rotating spindle connecting section is disposed in the stator support hole and its end extends out of the stator support hole. Multiple rotating spindle magnets are uniformly disposed inside the rotating spindle magnet support section.
[0025] A pair of symmetrical first spindle mounting holes and a pair of symmetrical second spindle mounting holes are sequentially opened along the transverse rearward direction on the first crossbeam. A first spindle is rotatably installed in the pair of first spindle mounting holes, and a second spindle is rotatably installed in the pair of second spindle mounting holes.
[0026] A pair of symmetrical third spindle mounting holes and a pair of symmetrical fourth spindle mounting holes are sequentially arranged vertically upwards on the first column. A third spindle is rotatably mounted in the pair of third spindle mounting holes, and a fourth spindle is rotatably mounted in the pair of fourth spindle mounting holes.
[0027] A rib is provided between the bottom of the storage support frame and the first column.
[0028] The vertical height of the aforementioned inclined guide plate is higher than the vertical height of the aforementioned storage support frame.
[0029] The spacing between adjacent first or second sensors is equal to the diameter of a drill rod.
[0030] The bottom of the vehicle platform is equipped with tracks.
[0031] An automatic control method for feeding drill pipes in underground coal mines, based on the aforementioned automatic drill pipe feeding system, specifically includes the following steps:
[0032] Step 1: Hoist a large number of drill rods into the drill rod hopper, where the drill rods are neatly arranged.
[0033] Step 2: In real time, determine whether the sensor at the temporary storage station detects the drill rod. If it does, the lower limit cylinder of the queuing station remains extended to prevent the drill rod from entering the storage station; otherwise, the lower limit cylinder of the queuing station retracts, and the drill rod enters the temporary storage station.
[0034] Step 3: In real time, determine whether the queuing station sensor detects the drill rod. If it does, the upper limit cylinder of the queuing station remains extended to prevent the drill rod from entering the queuing station; otherwise, the upper limit cylinder of the queuing station retracts and the drill rod enters the queuing station.
[0035] Step 4: In real time, determine whether the sensors at the storage station have detected the drill rod. If so, the vertical material distribution structure stops moving; otherwise, the vertical material distribution structure begins to grab the drill rod.
[0036] Step 5: In real time, determine whether all the first sensors have detected that there is no drill rod. If so, proceed to step 7; otherwise, proceed to step 6.
[0037] Step 6: When the first sensor detects the highest layer of drill rods, the data is transmitted to the control module. The control module controls the movement of the column moving and reversing multi-stage hydraulic cylinder, so that the column moving and reversing top plate is located at the layer below the highest layer of existing drill rods. When the moving end rotates the handle to the position of the column moving and reversing top plate, it rotates after contacting the column moving and reversing top plate, causing the rotating spindle to rotate. This causes the magnetic field of the magnetic gripping device to move, generating magnetism in the working area, gripping the drill rod from the drill rod hopper, separating a single drill rod, and moving through the second flexible composite transmission belt to transport the separated single drill rod to the top, where it contacts the storage inclined guide plate of the storage queuing structure. The separated single drill rod enters the storage station and slides down along the storage inclined guide plate to stop at the upper limit hydraulic cylinder of the queuing station.
[0038] Step 7: When the second sensor detects the maximum number of drill rods, the data is transmitted to the control module. The control module controls the movement of the multi-stage hydraulic cylinder for the crossbeam movement and reversing, so that the top plate of the crossbeam movement and reversing is located at the next level below the current maximum number of drill rods. When the rotating handle of the moving end moves to the position of the top plate of the crossbeam movement and reversing, it rotates after contacting the top plate of the crossbeam movement and reversing, driving the rotating spindle to rotate, causing the magnetic field of the magnetic gripping device to move, generating magnetism in the working area, gripping the drill rod from the drill rod hopper, separating a single drill rod, and transporting the separated single drill rod to the position of the first column through the movement of the first flexible composite transmission belt.
[0039] Step 8: In real time, determine whether all second sensors are not detecting the drill rod. If so, the horizontal material distribution structure stops working, while the vertical material distribution structure continues to work.
[0040] Step 9: If all the first sensors fail to detect the drill rod, the vertical material distribution structure will stop working.
[0041] In step 6, if one sensor at the same height on the first column detects a drill rod while the other does not, then the drill rods in the vertical material distribution station are misaligned. The column is moved to the top plate, which is then moved to the position three layers below the highest existing drill rod layer. By grabbing the three layers of drill rods below the highest layer, the upper two layers of drill rods are moved.
[0042] In step 7, when one of the second sensors on the same column of the two first crossbeams detects the presence of a drill rod while the other detects the absence of a drill rod, the drill rods in the horizontal material distribution station are misaligned. The crossbeam is moved to the top plate, which is then moved to the position of the three columns below the existing row with the most drill rods. By grabbing the three columns below the row with the most drill rods, the upper two columns of drill rods are moved.
[0043] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of this invention are:
[0044] (I) In this invention, the horizontal and vertical material distribution structures are controlled by the control module to work together, so that only one drill rod is extracted each time. The storage queuing structure has a certain fault tolerance, ensuring that there is a drill rod at each temporary storage station without affecting the production cycle. This solves the problem of not being able to extract only one drill rod from a large number of drill rods each time, while not affecting the production cycle of the equipment.
[0045] (II) In this invention, the placement of the drill rod is detected by the first sensor and the second sensor respectively, and the gripping position of the magnetic gripping structure is adjusted by the control module, which solves the problem of feeding failure caused by the drill rod being misplaced, misaligned or crossed in the material box.
[0046] (III) Through a compact structural design and a reasonable spatial layout, this invention achieves the advantages of small footprint and large drill pipe box capacity, which meets the requirements of limited space in underground coal mine roadways for equipment with a small footprint and large drill pipe box capacity.
[0047] (IV) In addition to the sensor system, all the actuators in this invention adopt a mechanical structure design, making the most of mechanical principles and structures to realize the various functions of the equipment. This not only reduces production costs, but also improves the reliability of the equipment by taking advantage of the good stability of the pure mechanical structure. Attached Figure Description

[0108] Step 3: In real time, determine whether the queuing station sensor 65 detects the drill rod. If it does, the upper limit cylinder 545 of the queuing station remains extended to prevent the drill rod 41 of the storage station from entering the queuing station 74; otherwise, the upper limit cylinder 545 of the queuing station retracts and the drill rod 41 of the storage station enters the queuing station 74.
[0109] Step 4: In real time, determine whether the storage station sensor 63 has detected the drill rod. If it has, the vertical material distribution structure 53 stops moving; otherwise, the vertical material distribution structure 53 starts to grab the drill rod.
[0110] Step 5: In real time, determine whether all the first sensors 61 have detected that there is no drill rod. If so, proceed to step 7; otherwise, proceed to step 6.
[0111] Step 6: When the first sensor 61 detects the highest layer of drill rods, the data is transmitted to the control module 3. The control module 3 controls the column moving and reversing multi-stage hydraulic cylinder 5383 to move, so that the column moving and reversing top plate 5381 is located at the next layer below the highest layer of existing drill rods. When the moving end rotating handle 5344 moves to the position of the column moving and reversing top plate 5381, it rotates 180 degrees after contacting the column moving and reversing top plate 5381, driving the rotating spindle 5341 to rotate, causing the magnetic field of the magnetic gripping device 534 to move, generating magnetism in the working area, gripping the drill rod from the drill rod hopper, separating a single drill rod, and moving through the second flexible composite transmission belt 533 to transport the separated single drill rod to the top, contacting the storage inclined guide plate 542 of the storage queuing structure 54. The separated single drill rod enters the storage station 73, slides down along the storage inclined guide plate 542 to stop at the upper limit hydraulic cylinder 545 of the queuing station;
[0112] Step 7: When the second sensor 62 detects the maximum number of drill rods, the data is transmitted to the control module 3. The control module 3 controls the movement of the crossbeam moving and reversing multi-stage hydraulic cylinder 5283, so that the crossbeam moving and reversing top plate 5281 is located at the next level below the current maximum number of drill rods. When the moving end rotating handle 5344 moves to the position of the crossbeam moving and reversing top plate 5281, it rotates 180 degrees after contacting the crossbeam moving and reversing top plate 5281, driving the rotating spindle 5341 to rotate, causing the magnetic field of the magnetic gripping device 534 to move, generating magnetism in the working area, gripping the drill rod from the drill rod hopper, separating a single drill rod, and conveying the separated single drill rod to the position of the first column 511 through the movement of the first flexible composite transmission belt 533.
[0113] Step 9: In real time, determine whether all second sensors 62 are not detecting the drill rod. If so, the horizontal material distribution structure 52 stops working, and the vertical material distribution structure 53 continues to work.
[0114] Step 10: If all first sensors 61 fail to detect the drill rod, the vertical material distribution structure 53 will stop working.
[0115] Specifically, in step 6, if one of the first sensors 61 at the same height on the first column 511 detects a drill rod while the other detects no drill rod, then the drill rods in the vertical material distribution station 71 are misaligned. The column is moved to the top plate 5381, which is then moved to the position three layers below the highest existing drill rod layer. By grabbing the three layers of drill rods below the highest layer, the upper two layers of drill rods are moved.
[0116] Specifically, in step 7, when one of the second sensors 61 on the same column of the two first crossbeams detects the presence of a drill rod and the other detects the absence of a drill rod, the drill rods in the horizontal material distribution station 72 are misaligned. The crossbeam is moved to the top plate 5281, which is then moved to the position of the three columns below the existing maximum number of drill rods. By grabbing the three columns below the maximum number of drill rods, the upper two columns of drill rods are moved.
