[0020] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0021] The method for monitoring the working condition of a thin coal seam working face in an embodiment of the present invention is implemented based on a monitoring system, such as Figure 1As shown, the monitoring system includes a data acquisition unit, a data transmission unit, a data processing unit and a monitoring operation terminal, wherein the data acquisition unit includes an integrated sensor 1 (integrated sensor 1), a pressure displacement sensor (cylinder pressure-displacement measurement) and a visual measurement device.

[0022] The data acquisition unit and the data transmission unit are both arranged at at least one of the three machines of the working face, which include a coal mining machine, a scraper conveyor and a hydraulic support. Specifically, the coal mining machine, the scraper conveyor and the hydraulic support can all be equipped with data acquisition units, while the data transmission unit can be only installed on a part of the coal mining machine, the scraper conveyor and the hydraulic support.

[0023] The data processing unit can be installed underground, specifically at the working face, or in a mining tunnel, a chamber, etc. The monitoring operation terminal can be arranged in a control room, a chamber, etc. on the ground.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the monitoring method comprises the following steps: After the thin coal seam working face starts mining, the data acquisition unit is used to monitor and collect the operating parameters of the three machines of the working face. For example, after the thin coal seam working face starts mining, the working condition monitoring system of the thin coal seam working face is started, and the monitoring operation terminal of the monitoring system can send control instructions to the integrated sensor 1, the visual measurement device and the pressure displacement sensor of the data acquisition unit, thereby each sensor starts data collection.

[0025] The collected operating parameters are transmitted to the data processing unit by using the data transmission unit. Specifically, the data transmission unit may be a wireless transmission unit, a wired transmission unit, etc., and the operating parameters collected by the data collection unit may be transmitted to the data processing unit via the data transmission unit.

[0026] The data processing unit is used to judge the data validity of the acquired operating parameters. If the operating parameters do not meet the requirements, the operating parameters are acquired again. Specifically, after receiving the above operating parameters, the data processing unit can compare and judge the operating parameters according to the preset condition threshold. If there is a large deviation in the operating parameters, it can be said that there is a large error in the operating parameters. At this time, the data acquisition unit can transmit the received operating parameters to the data processing unit again, so as to avoid the deviation of the operating parameters during the transmission process.

[0027] If the transmitted operating parameters still do not meet the requirements, the operating parameters can be collected again through the data collection unit, and then the latest operating parameters can be transmitted to the data processing unit.

[0028] If the operating parameters meet the requirements, the operating parameters are analyzed and processed, and the analysis and processing method includes classifying the operating parameters and generating processing data. Specifically, the operating parameters can be classified by considering factors such as time and shift, and the classified operating parameters can be analyzed and sorted to generate processing data, which can be presented in the form of tables, text descriptions, etc.

[0029] The processed data is transmitted to the monitoring operation terminal, which is used to visualize the processed data. The operator makes decisions based on the visualized processed data, which facilitates timely correction and guidance of the mining of thin coal seam working faces.

[0030] Compared with the monitoring method using manual means in the prior art, the thin coal seam working face working condition monitoring method of the embodiment of the present invention realizes intelligent monitoring of the thin coal seam mining working face. Before analysis and processing, the validity of the obtained operating parameters will be judged to avoid misjudgment of the operating parameters, thereby ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of monitoring, thereby fully guaranteeing the continuity and safety of thin coal seam mining.

[0031] In some embodiments, there are multiple integrated sensors 1, and the multiple integrated sensors 1 are respectively arranged at the lower end of the rocker arm of the coal mining machine, the middle trough side plate of the scraper conveyor and the middle of the top beam of the hydraulic support, thereby facilitating the simultaneous monitoring of the three machines on the working face.

[0032] There are multiple pressure displacement sensors, which are installed in the jacks of the scraper conveyor and the hydraulic support. Specifically, the pressure displacement sensor can be installed at the bottom of the cylinder jack of the hydraulic support and the push jack of the scraper conveyor. This can monitor the telescopic displacement of the jack and the internal hydraulic pressure.

[0033] The visual measurement device is installed in the middle of the top beam of the hydraulic support, above the traction part of the coal mining machine, and the head power part of the scraper conveyor. Specifically, the visual measurement device can obtain the corresponding image through image acquisition, and then analyze the working environment according to the image and generate the corresponding environmental operating parameters.

[0034] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned operating parameters include the relative posture parameters of the three machines, the moving state parameters of the three machines, the vibration intensity parameters of the local positions of the three machines, the dust density parameters in the space, and the pushing distance parameters collected by the integrated sensor 1.

[0035] The operating parameters also include jack action stroke parameters, emulsion pressure parameters, jack action speed parameters, and jack action acceleration parameters collected by the pressure displacement sensor.

[0036] The operating parameters also include the distribution position parameters of the hydraulic support in the working face collected by the visual measurement device, the working position parameters of the scraper conveyor, the action posture parameters of the coal mining machine, the coal wall state parameters, the opening and closing angle parameters of the side guard plates, the coal flow movement state parameters, and the smoke and dust parameters of the gangue and working face.

[0037] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the integrated sensor 1 includes an explosion-proof housing 2 and a plurality of monitoring modules assembled in the explosion-proof housing 2, wherein the plurality of monitoring modules may be a height measurement module, an inclination measurement module, a triaxial acceleration measurement module, a dust detection module, a vibration detection module, a temperature measurement module, a UWB module, a signal acquisition module, etc. Thus, the integrated arrangement of the plurality of monitoring modules is realized, which is conducive to simplifying the installation arrangement.

[0038] In some embodiments, the visual measurement device includes multiple RGBD cameras and visible light camera modules, thereby meeting the use needs of visual monitoring.

[0039] In some embodiments, the data transmission unit includes a distributed signal transceiver terminal and a mine intrinsically safe switch, and the distributed signal transceiver terminal is mounted on the controller end of the hydraulic support, the electrical part of the coal mining machine, and the head or tail of the scraper conveyor. When in use, the distributed signal transceiver terminal can realize the transmission and reception of the collected operating parameters, etc., thereby meeting the use needs of the transmission.

[0040] There are multiple mine intrinsically safe switches, which are arranged at intervals along the working surface, and a set number of hydraulic supports are spaced between two adjacent mine intrinsically safe switches. The mine intrinsically safe switches meet the use needs of providing electrical signal paths for local areas. Specifically, the mine intrinsically safe switches can be evenly distributed and installed at a distance of 5 hydraulic supports each, thereby meeting the use needs of electrical signal paths within the distance range of 5 hydraulic supports.

[0041] In some embodiments, the scraper conveyor and the hydraulic support are both laid with leaky cables, and the leaky cables are equipped with cellular base stations to construct antennas. For example, a leaky cable is laid in the cable trough of the scraper conveyor and in the hose harness of the hydraulic support, and a micro-sized cellular base station is configured respectively, thereby overcoming the problem of difficulty in wireless signal transmission caused by uneven working surface of thin coal seams, large ups and downs, and many obstructions through uniform coverage of small signal multi-point antennas.

[0042] In some embodiments, the data processing unit includes an embedded controller and a memory, wherein the embedded controller is used to determine the validity of the operating parameters, and the embedded controller is also used to analyze and process the operating parameters to generate processing data. The memory is used to store the operating parameters and the processing data.

[0043] In some embodiments, data validity determination includes the following steps: A1: Set standard values ​​and historical data. For example, standard values ​​can be obtained through mathematical models, laboratory verification and other means, while historical data can be previous mining data.

[0044] A2: Compare the operating parameters with the standard values ​​and historical data. If the comparison result between the operating parameters and any of the standard values ​​and historical data does not meet the requirements, re-acquire the operating parameters.

[0045] For example, the operating parameters can be compared with historical data, and the historical data can be the operating parameters of the last monitoring, or the average value of the operating parameters monitored in the most recent time, etc. If the difference between the operating parameters and the historical data is within a reasonable range, it means that the obtained operating parameters are valid, and at this time, the next step of analysis and processing can be performed based on the operating parameters.

[0046] In some embodiments, the operating parameters are classified according to date, mining area location, and mining shift, and the processed data includes operating condition records and data analysis forms.

[0047] In some embodiments, the monitoring operation terminal includes a visualization interface and an operation console. The visualization interface is used to visualize the processing data. The visualization interface can specifically be a display screen, etc. The operation console is used for operators to edit the processing data and issue decision instructions.

The collected visual data is transmitted to the data processing unit for analysis and processing via the data transmission unit.

[0056] The data transmission unit is composed of a distributed signal transceiver terminal, wireless communication cables and equipment for the working face, and a mine intrinsically safe switch.

[0058] At the same time, the output results are automatically classified and stored according to categories such as date, mining area location, mining shift, etc. to generate working condition records. Specifically, the classified working condition record data types include key information such as the working face mining date, mining shift (coal cutting / maintenance), comprehensive mining team personnel information, and the mining area location of the working face. The working condition records are in CSV format and electronic text format, and the data analysis form is in CSV format and electronic image format.
