Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of coal mine roadway deformation control, specifically a method for preventing floor heave in coal mine roadways based on floor blasting pressure relief. Background Technology

[0002] Coal mine roadways, especially those on both sides of the working face, face the risk of floor heave during or after the working face is excavated. This can affect normal mine production and threaten the safety of personnel and equipment. Most existing prevention methods are passive, involving cleaning away the heave portion when it occurs. This method requires multiple cleanings, impacting production and is relatively dangerous. Another method involves excavating trenches in the roadway floor to relieve pressure, but the excavation volume is difficult to determine, and excavation also affects production. Therefore, this paper proposes a floor heave prevention method that allows for a single pressure relief operation without affecting roadway use. This method is of great significance for improving mine production safety and ensuring normal mine operation. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention proposes a method for preventing floor heave in coal mine roadways based on floor blasting pressure relief, specifically including the following steps:

[0004] S1: Determine the coal seam side support pressure curve and the coal pillar or roadway backfill side support pressure curve of the mining roadway; introduce Rankine earth pressure theory to analyze the stress characteristics of the mining roadway floor, and determine the range of coal seam side slip and the range of coal pillar or roadway backfill side slip.

[0005] S2: Identify the blasting and decompression rock strata in the bottom plate

[0006] S21: First, identify the thick, hard base strata in the base plate;

[0007] S22: Secondly, select the thick and hard bottom rock layer that is closest to and does not intersect with the side slip body of the coal seam and the side slip body of the coal pillar or the roadway filling body as the blasting decompression rock layer;

[0008] S3: Determine the blasting pressure relief range

[0009] S31: Calculate the area S1 of the coal seam lateral slip body and the area S2 of the coal pillar or roadway filling body lateral slip body;

[0010] S32: Determine the energy E1 that can be released by the deformation of the bottom heave of the side slip body of the coal seam per unit area; determine the energy E2 that can be released by the deformation of the bottom heave of the side slip body of the coal pillar or roadway filling body per unit area; determine the capacity E that can be absorbed by the compression deformation of the blasting decompression zone per unit area.

[0011] S33: Determine the area of ​​the blasting pressure relief zone S = (E1 × S1 + E2 × S2) / E;

[0012] S34: Determine the boundary of the blasting pressure relief zone on the coal seam side, wherein the boundary of the coal seam side should reach or exceed the peak position of the coal seam side support pressure curve; determine the boundary of the blasting pressure relief zone on the coal pillar or roadway filling body side, wherein the boundary of the coal pillar or roadway filling body side should reach or exceed the peak position of the coal pillar or roadway filling body side support pressure curve; then determine the left and right widths of the blasting pressure relief zone, and the height of the blasting pressure relief zone can be calculated based on the area S of the blasting pressure relief zone;

[0013] S35: Determine the top boundary of the blasting pressure relief zone. The top boundary is the top boundary of the blasting pressure relief rock layer. The bottom boundary of the blasting pressure relief zone can be determined based on the height of the blasting pressure relief zone.

[0014] S4: Use blasting decompression drilling to blast the determined blasting decompression range.

[0015] Preferably, in step S21, the thick and hard base rock layer is determined based on the critical layer theory, or a rock layer with a large thickness and hard lithology is selected based on experience.

[0016] Preferably, step S4 further includes S41: constructing pressure relief boreholes from the mining roadway to the blasting pressure relief zone, loading explosives into the pressure relief borehole portion within the blasting pressure relief zone, sealing the pressure relief borehole portion between the blasting pressure relief zone and the sliding body, and then carrying out blasting.

[0017] Preferably, step S4 further includes S42: grouting to reinforce the pressure relief borehole section in the side slip body of the coal seam, coal pillar, or roadway filling body.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The method for preventing floor heave in coal mine roadways based on floor blasting pressure relief in this invention selects the blasting pressure relief zone in the thick, hard coal seam floor, close to the slip body, allowing for floor heave prevention based on the minimum blasting pressure relief zone required for construction. Furthermore, by introducing Rankine earth pressure theory to determine the slip body, this invention determines a reasonable blasting pressure relief zone range based on the slip body and the supporting pressure. The pressure relief borehole serves a dual purpose: it can be used to construct the blasting pressure relief zone and to reinforce areas prone to floor heave in mining roadways.
