[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a cutting head for a roadheader with a cutter head wear detection function. The cutting head for a roadheader makes full use of the characteristic of the alloy cutter head heating up due to damage, and based on the temperature measurement principle, can timely and sensitively detect the wear condition of the cutter head, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that the wear of the cutter head is inconvenient to observe, resulting in the inability to replace the cutter head in time, aggravating the damage to the equipment and affecting the progress of the project.

[0039] Another object of the present invention is to provide a roadheader comprising the above-mentioned roadheader cutting head.

[0040] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] The present embodiment provides a cutting head 1 for a roadheader, comprising a cutting head body 11 and a plurality of cutting tooth seats 12 arranged on the cutting head body 11, and also comprising a data processing module and a temperature detection device 15. A cutting tooth 13 is arranged on any cutting tooth seat 12, and a temperature detection device 15 is arranged on the cutter head 14 of any cutting tooth 13. The temperature detection device 15 is used to monitor the temperature of the cutter head 14 in real time. Any temperature detection device 15 is connected to the data processing module for communication, and the data processing module is used to perform at least: Step 1, receiving the temperature detection signal of any temperature detection device 15 in real time, and judging whether the temperature detection signal is higher than the threshold value, if the judgment result is yes, then executing step 2, if the judgment result is no, then continuing to execute step 1; Step 2, reminding to replace the corresponding cutter head 14. It should be noted that the temperature detection signal in step 1 is generally characterized by a temperature value, and the temperature value and the threshold value are judged as common processor functions; the reminder method in step 2 can be a display reminder (requires personnel to check and obtain in time), or it can be configured by an alarm system alarm reminder. The above-mentioned cutting head 1 of the roadheader has a novel and reasonable structure. It makes full use of the characteristics of the damaged alloy cutter head heating up. Based on the temperature measurement principle, the temperature of the cutter head 14 of each pick 13 is monitored in real time. When the temperature measurement value of the temperature detection device 15 is higher than the threshold value, it means that the corresponding cutter head carbide is broken and the corresponding pick 13 is worn, and the pick 13 should be replaced. This solution can accurately measure the temperature of the pick and measure the degree of wear of the pick according to the temperature. Compared with manual observation to judge the degree of wear, this solution has higher working efficiency and higher accuracy, and can achieve the purpose of timely detection of pick wear and timely replacement and maintenance, thereby improving the tunneling efficiency of the roadheader and ensuring the safety of the excavation work.

[0043] In some embodiments, the pick 13 is a conventional finished product, and preferably any temperature detection device 15 is embedded in the corresponding cutter head 14 and close to the root of the cutter head 14 to ensure that the temperature detection device 15 does not affect the normal cutting function of the cutter head 14 on the pick 13. Preferably, one temperature detection device 15 is installed in each cutter head 14 to avoid installing too many and affecting the structural strength of the cutter head 14.

[0044] In some embodiments, the temperature detection device 15 may be a temperature detection element such as a thermocouple or a temperature sensor. In this solution, it is preferred that some or all of the temperature detection devices 15 are infrared temperature sensors.

[0045] In some embodiments, part or all of the temperature detection devices 15 are connected to the corresponding picks 13 via positioning screws 16 .

[0046] In some embodiments, the measurement range of some or all temperature detection devices 15 is 0°C to 2400°C, the measurement error is ±0.5°C, and the response time is 90ms to 110ms. As a preferred solution, the response time of all temperature detection devices 15 is 100ms.

[0047] In some implementations, the aforementioned data processing module is preferably a recorder 18. The recorder 18 is used to be installed on the tunneling machine, and the recorder 18 has a dashboard 110 capable of displaying temperature.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the recorder 18 further includes a front panel 19, and the instrument panel 110 is fixed through the front panel 19. A mounting bracket 111 is provided on the side of the recorder 18, and can be fixed on the operating table of the tunnel boring machine 100 by mounting screws 112.

[0049] The cutting head 1 of the tunnel boring machine is installed in the cutting part of the tunnel boring machine 100 for use. When in use, the cutting motor 5 drives the telescopic part 2 to rotate through the cutting reducer 4, and at the same time, the telescopic cylinder 3 of the telescopic part 2 drives the cutting arm 7 to extend and retract to push the cutting head 1 to cut. The cutting head 1 directly rotates and cuts the broken coal and rock at the face to dig out the tunnel. The cutting teeth 13 are repeatedly impacted by strong impact loads during the tunneling process, and the carbide cutter head 14 will be brittle and the temperature will rise. Based on this, the present scheme installs a temperature detection device 15 on each cutting tooth 13. The temperature detection device 15 can measure the cutting tooth temperature in real time during the tunnel excavation process and transmit it to the recorder 18. In practical applications, an alarm system can be configured in the recorder 18, and an alarm can be issued when the recorder 18 determines that the measured temperature value is higher than the threshold value, reminding the operator to replace the corresponding cutting teeth 13; the operator can also directly observe the temperature measurement values ​​of each temperature detection device 15 in real time through the instrument panel 110 of the recorder 18 at the operating table of the tunnel boring machine 100, so as to promptly and accurately find the damaged cutting teeth, facilitate their replacement and maintenance in time, improve the tunneling efficiency, and avoid damage to other parts of the equipment. It should be noted that the cutting function of the above-mentioned tunnel boring machine cutting head 1 has not been changed, and its installation form and working principle in the tunnel boring machine are conventional operations in the field, which will not be repeated here.

[0050] It can be seen that this solution makes full use of the characteristics of the damaged and heated alloy cutter head in the pick 13. By installing a temperature detection device on each pick to monitor the temperature change of the cutter head in real time, the degree of damage to each pick cutter head can be determined. Compared with manual observation of wear, the accuracy is relatively higher and the work efficiency is higher. The purpose of timely detection of pick wear and timely replacement and maintenance can be achieved, which helps to improve excavation efficiency and extend the service life of related components.

[0051] Example 2

When in use, the cutting motor 5 drives the telescopic part 2 to rotate through the cutting reducer 4, and at the same time, the telescopic cylinder 3 of the telescopic part 2 drives the cutting arm 7 to extend and retract to push the cutting head 1 to cut, and the cutting head 1 directly rotates on the face to cut and crush the coal and rock to dig out the tunnel. The cutting teeth 13 are repeatedly impacted by strong impact loads during the tunneling process, and the carbide cutter head 14 will be brittle and the temperature will rise. At the same time, the temperature detection device 15 can measure the cutting tooth temperature in real time during the tunnel excavation process and transmit it to the recorder 18. In practical applications, an alarm system can be configured in the recorder 18, and an alarm can be issued when the recorder 18 determines that the measured temperature value is higher than the threshold value, reminding the operator to replace the corresponding cutting teeth 13; the operator can also directly observe the temperature measurement values ​​of each temperature detection device 15 in real time through the instrument panel 110 of the recorder 18 at the operating table of the tunnel boring machine 100, so as to promptly and accurately find the damaged cutting teeth, facilitate their replacement and maintenance in time, improve the tunneling efficiency, and avoid damage to other parts of the equipment. It should be noted that the cutting function of the above-mentioned tunnel boring machine cutting head 1 has not been changed, and its installation form and working principle in the tunnel boring machine are conventional operations in the field, which will not be repeated here.

[0053] It can be seen that this scheme makes full use of the characteristics of the damaged and heated alloy cutter head in the pick. By installing a temperature detection device on each pick to monitor the temperature change of the cutter head in real time, the degree of damage to each pick cutter head can be determined. Compared with manual observation of wear, the accuracy is relatively higher and the work efficiency is higher. The purpose of timely detection of pick wear and timely replacement and maintenance can be achieved, which helps to improve excavation efficiency and extend the service life of related parts.
