Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of mining, and in particular to a deep stratum wellbore and cave mining system. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing global attention to sustainable development and green economy, the strategic value of high-value mineral resources will be further highlighted. Various tools and equipment required for production and life require a large amount of mineral resources. For example, the demand for precious metals and other rare elements in cutting-edge equipment such as deep space and deep sea exploration, basic scientific exploration, nuclear fusion devices, super computing power, and high-speed transportation is increasing day by day. The large amount of precious mineral resources contained in deep strata is precisely an important guarantee for the survival and development of mankind in the future and an important support for human scientific and technological progress. Therefore, geological and mining technology needs to keep pace with the times and advance into the depths. However, the development of mineral resources in the depths of the earth will face more complex, more stringent, and more unpredictable engineering and geological environments. With the increase in mining depth, traditional mining technology has a geometric increase in major accidents and development costs. The scale of deep mineral development seems almost impossible to achieve from the current traditional technical methods. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new technical system that can effectively develop mineral resources in deep strata and undersea strata to support the exploration of deep strata.

[0003] In the prior art, the mining of underground solid mineral deposits mainly adopts the vertical shaft and tunnel method, that is, the mining equipment is transported into the stratum through vertical shafts, inclined tunnels and horizontal tunnels, mining operations are carried out underground and the ore is transported out using transportation equipment such as vehicles or conveyor belts. As the mining depth increases, more and more strata cannot be mined due to rock bursts, protrusions, roof falls, collapses, water seepage and other problems. When mining is carried out according to the above method, a huge space will be formed underground. Therefore, complex support equipment is required to support the formed chamber. However, collapse will still occur when mining deep strata or non-hard strata, resulting in interruption of mining operations.

[0004] Since people began to inject water into well holes to dissolve salt mines in the Song Dynasty, they have been exploring new methods for extracting deep minerals. For a long time, how to mine minerals in deep strata has always been a problem that has attracted much attention. In the 1970s, scholars successively proposed to use high-pressure water jets to impact the wellbore in rock or coal seams to form cavities for mining solid minerals. Although this method can impact and generate cavities for minerals with low hardness, due to the limitation of the jet distance, it is still difficult to control the mining volume. In addition, the jet used for impact cannot be controlled, and it is impossible to accurately break rocks. As the cavity is formed, the broken mineral particles cannot be effectively carried out of the wellbore by circulating water, and it is impossible to form cavities with a large volume and controllable shape, making it difficult to reach the industrial mining scale and difficult to achieve the morphological holes of the mining space. Using the above method is even more powerless for the development of deep metal ore deposits. In addition, when mining minerals in the strata below the water body, the existing technology mainly adopts the coastal development method, drilling vertical shafts on the shore and then excavating roadways into the strata below the water area. In essence, it also realizes ore mining and transportation through the vertical shaft roadway method, but this method cannot extend a long distance into the ocean. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an effective technology for mining deep minerals and minerals inside the strata below the ocean.

[0005] In view of the problems of poor support effect and low ore particle cleaning efficiency during the mining of cavities in deep strata in related technologies, it leads to large-scale and high-efficiency mining operations for deep strata or non-hard strata.

Especially for the cavities formed by mining in deep formations or non-hard formations, the requirements for support equipment can be effectively reduced.

[0088] In addition, due to the arrangement of multiple shafts, and the three-dimensional shaft mining device and the three-dimensional shaft filling device both have the ability to move, through the controllable shape mining and controllable shape filling of the cavity, the free space shape and volume of the cavity can be controllably maintained (especially using the natural stability of strip-shaped cavities or arched cavities to keep the shape and volume of the mining working space controllable in real time), so that the controllable mining working space can move in real time as the mining and filling progress, ensuring the stability of the cavity during the overall mining process.

[0089] By cooperating the three-dimensional shaft mining device with the three-dimensional shaft cleaning device, or by cooperating the three-dimensional shaft mining device, the three-dimensional shaft filling device with the three-dimensional shaft cleaning device, the cleaning efficiency of the ore particles can be effectively improved, especially suitable for large-scale and high-efficiency mining operations in deep formations or non-hard formations.

[0130] As Figures 1 to 15 shown, the present invention provides a deep formation wellbore cavern mining system. The deep formation wellbore cavern mining system includes a traffic well system and a through-well three-dimensional mining device 3. The traffic well system has at least two wellbores 1, and the diameter of the wellbore 1 is less than 1 m. Among them, the internal channel formed by the wellbore 1 is communicated with the cavern 2 formed by mining, and the internal channel formed by the wellbore 1 is configured as a backflow channel 113 and an injection channel 114. The backflow channel 113 is used to transport the ore particles mined in the cavern 2 to the outside of the well, and the injection channel 114 is used to inject circulating fluid into the traffic well system from the outside of the well or transport fluidized filling material into the cavern 2 from the outside of the well. The through-well three-dimensional mining device 3 has a control mechanism, and the control mechanism is used to drive the through-well three-dimensional mining device 3 to move in the cavern 2. The through-well three-dimensional mining device 3 is used to perform controllable shape mining on the cavern 2 (i.e., excavate the mining face 7).

[0131] Furthermore, the deep formation wellbore cavern mining system of the present invention further includes a three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore and / or a three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 through the wellbore. The three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore has a control mechanism, and the control mechanism is used to drive the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore to move in the cavern 2. The three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore is used to convey a fluidized filling material to the cavern 2 through the injection channel 114 for filling with a controllable shape, so as to reduce the free space volume of the cavern 2. The three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 through the wellbore has a control mechanism, and the control mechanism is used to drive the three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 through the wellbore to move in the cavern 2. The three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 through the wellbore is used to clean or transport the ore particles in the cavern 2 to the return channel 113, so that the circulating fluid discharges the ore particles out of the cavern 2 through the wellbore 1.

[0132] When the number of wellbores 1 is two, the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore and the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore can be used in combination to perform controllable shape mining and filling operations in the cavern 2. Of course, the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore and the three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 through the wellbore can also be used in combination to perform controllable shape mining and external discharge operations of ore particles in the cavern 2. When the number of wellbores 1 is three, the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore, the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore and the three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 through the wellbore are used in combination to simultaneously perform controllable shape mining, filling and external discharge operations of ore particles in the cavern 2.

[0133] In the present invention, the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore has a crawling section, and the crawling section is used to drive the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore to move three-dimensionally in the cavern 2 to break the rock within the range of the cavern 2; and / or, the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore has a wellbore traveling device, and the wellbore traveling device is used to drive the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore to move in the wellbore 1; and / or, the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore includes a well-cavern crawling device, and the well-cavern crawling device is used to drive the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore to move three-dimensionally in the cavern 2 to break the rock within the range of the cavern 2.

[0134] In the present invention, the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore has a crawling section, and the crawling section is used to drive the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore to move in the cavern 2 to the free space to be filled for filling operations; and / or, the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore has a wellbore traveling device, and the wellbore traveling device is used to drive the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore to move in the wellbore 1; and / or, the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore includes a well-cavern crawling device, and the well-cavern crawling device is used to drive the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore to move in the cavern 2 to the free space to be filled for filling operations.

[0135] In the present invention, the three-dimensional wellbore cleaning device 5 has a crawling section for driving the three-dimensional wellbore cleaning device 5 to move within the cavity 2 to the position where ore particles are accumulated for cleaning the accumulated ore particles; and / or, the three-dimensional wellbore cleaning device 5 has a wellbore traveling device for driving the three-dimensional wellbore cleaning device 5 to move within the wellbore 1; and / or, the three-dimensional wellbore cleaning device 5 includes a cavity crawling device for driving the three-dimensional wellbore cleaning device 5 to move within the cavity 2 to the position where ore particles are accumulated for cleaning the accumulated ore particles.

[0136] Among them, the three-dimensional wellbore mining device 3, the three-dimensional wellbore filling device 4, and the three-dimensional wellbore cleaning device 5 can adopt the same structure of the crawling section, the wellbore traveling device, and / or the cavity crawling device.

[0137] The wellbore 1 in the present invention refers to a circular tubular hole drilled by a drill bit (not a vertical shaft or roadway in conventional technologies). The advantage of using a small-diameter circular tubular wellbore 1 in the present invention is that it is convenient to use the drill bit for efficient drilling. By adopting a drilling method similar to that of oil and gas wells to replace the construction of vertical shaft roadways, the cost can be greatly reduced and the efficiency can be increased.

[0138] The deep formation wellbore cavity mining system of the present invention is suitable for mining operations on the cavity 2 through a wellbore with a diameter less than 1 m. Among them, the cavity 2 is a strip-shaped cavity with a diameter ranging from 0.1 m to 3 m and an axial length ranging from 2 m to 50 m. The formed traffic well system has multiple wellbores 1 with a diameter less than 1 m. At least among the multiple wellbores 1, there are a return channel 113 and an injection channel 114 respectively communicating with the cavity 2. The return channel 113 is used to transport the ore particles mined from the cavity 2 to the outside of the well, and the injection channel 114 is used to transport the fluid filling material from the outside of the well into the cavity 2. During the actual mining process, a movable three-dimensional wellbore mining device 3 and a three-dimensional wellbore filling device 4 are arranged in the wellbore 1 and / or the cavity 2. Through the three-dimensional wellbore mining device 3, the cavity 2 can be mined with a controllable shape, and at the same time, through the three-dimensional wellbore filling device 4, the fluid filling material is transported into the cavity 2 for controllable shape filling, thereby reducing the free space volume in the cavity 2 and enhancing the stability of the cavity 2. Especially for the cavity 2 formed by mining in deep formations or non-hard formations, the requirements for support equipment can be effectively reduced. In addition, in the present invention, due to the arrangement of multiple wellbores 1, and both the three-dimensional wellbore mining device 3 and the three-dimensional wellbore filling device 4 have movable capabilities, through the controllable shape mining and controllable shape filling of the cavity 2, the free space shape and volume of the cavity 2 can be controllably maintained (especially by utilizing the natural stability of the strip-shaped cavity 2 or the arched cavity 2 to keep the shape and volume of the mining working space controllable in real time). As the mining face 7 and the filling face 9 move forward, the controllable mining working space can move in real time as the mining and filling progress, ensuring the stability of the cavity during the overall mining process.

[0139] In the present invention, by cooperating the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore with the three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 through the wellbore, or by cooperating the three-dimensional mining device 3 through the wellbore, the three-dimensional filling device 4 through the wellbore with the three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 through the wellbore, the cleaning and transporting efficiency of ore particles can be effectively improved, and it is particularly suitable for large-scale and high-efficiency mining operations in deep formations or non-hard formations.

[0140] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the fluidized filling material can be, but is not limited to, cemented filling material, high-water filling material or paste filling material. For example, the fluidized filling material can adopt concrete. Of course, other substances with fluidity and solidifying after standing for a period of time (such as: muck mixed with adhesives, particles covered with adhesives on the surface, etc.) can also be used. The specific material adopted for the fluidized filling material is not limited herein, as long as it can fill the mined cavity 2 and ensure the stability of the space after filling. Filling materials and slurries with a certain viscosity or bonding effect used in roadways and coal mining faces can be used as equivalent substitutes.

[0141] Further, the control mechanism includes one or more of an angle actuator 801, a telescopic actuator 802, a rotary actuator, and a pulling actuator.

[0142] Further, a supporting fluid with a density between 0.3 g / cm 3 - 3 g / cm 3 is also filled in the wellbore 1. During the mining process, the supporting fluid can be used to support the wellbore 1 and / or the cavity 2. The supporting fluid is injected into the wellbore 1 and / or the cavity 2 through the wellhead and forms a particle flow with ore particles and is discharged out of the well through the return channel 113, further ensuring the stability of the wellbore 1 and the cavity 2. Among them, the supporting fluid can be, but is not limited to, substances such as clear water, bentonite slurry, oil-based fluid, supercritical carbon dioxide, oil, etc.

[0143] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, multiple wellbores 1 include at least one main wellbore 111 and multiple branch wellbores 112. The multiple branch wellbores 112 are located between the main wellbore 111 and the cavity 2 and are distributed at intervals. The main wellbore 111 is connected to the cavity 2 through the branch wellbores 112.

[0144] Further, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the number of main wellbores 111 is two, and multiple branch wellbores 112 are arranged at intervals along the extending directions of the two main wellbores 111, and the multiple branch wellbores 112 located between the two main wellbores 111 and the cavern 2 are respectively communicated with the main wellbores 111 and the cavern 2. Among them, at least part of the branch wellbores 112 and one main wellbore 111 cooperate to form a return channel 113, and at least another part of the branch wellbores 112 and the other main wellbore 111 cooperate to form an injection channel 114.

[0145] Further, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the cavern 2 has at least two cavern entrances 201, and the two cavern entrances 201 are respectively used for allowing at least part of the positions of the three-dimensional mining device 3 and the three-dimensional filling device 4 passing through the wellbore to enter the cavern 2.

[0146] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, an energy line is arranged in the wellbore 1, and the three-dimensional mining device 3, the three-dimensional filling device 4 passing through the wellbore, and / or the three-dimensional cleaning device 5 passing through the wellbore can be respectively powered through the energy line to ensure the normal operation of the three-dimensional mining device 3, the three-dimensional filling device 4 passing through the wellbore, and the three-dimensional cleaning device 5 passing through the wellbore. Among them, the energy line can be, but is not limited to, a cable or a hydraulic pipeline. One end of the energy line located underground is electrically connected to the driving ends of the three-dimensional mining device 3, the three-dimensional filling device 4 passing through the wellbore, and / or the three-dimensional cleaning device 5 passing through the wellbore, and one end of the energy line located at the wellhead is electrically connected to a power source outside the wellhead.

[0147] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, as Figures 1 to 4 shown, the three-dimensional mining device 3 passing through the wellbore includes a serpentine mining device that can move and crush ores in the cavern 2 and the wellbore 1. The front part of the serpentine mining device is a first extended robotic arm 301, and the first extended robotic arm 301 at least includes a driving section and a crushing assembly 3011; the driving section includes a control mechanism, and the first extended robotic arm 301 is controlled to move with at least two degrees of freedom through the control mechanism; the crushing assembly 3011 is arranged at the front or middle part of the driving section. During the mining process, the ore rock mass on the mining face 7 can be directly crushed by the crushing assembly 3011 or used to crush the fallen ores, so that the ore particles are transported in the form of a particle flow. Among them, the driving section can be a robotic arm with at least two degrees of freedom, and the robotic arm can drive the crushing assembly 3011 to move in the cavern 2, so as to accurately crush the ore rock mass on the mining face 7. In some embodiments, the robotic arm can adopt an existing serpentine robotic arm.

[0148] Further, the serpentine mining device has a crawling section 603 connected to the driving section, and the crawling section 603 is used to drive the driving section to move in the cavity 2; alternatively, the serpentine mining device has a wellbore traveling device connected to the driving section, and the wellbore traveling device is used to drive the driving section to move in the wellbore 1.

[0149] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, as Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the three-dimensional wellbore filling device 4 includes a serpentine filling device that can move in the cavity 2 and the wellbore 1 and output fluidized filling material. The front part of the serpentine filling device is a second extended robotic arm 401, and the second extended robotic arm 401 includes at least a driving section and a crushing assembly; the driving section includes a control mechanism, and the second extended robotic arm 401 is controlled to move with at least two degrees of freedom through the control mechanism; the inside of the driving section has a filling flow channel 402, and the filling flow channel 402 is used to transport the fluidized filling material to perform filling, grouting, pouring or spraying operations on at least part of the space of the cavity 2. Among them, the driving section can be a robotic arm with at least two degrees of freedom, and the outlet of the filling flow channel 402 can be driven to move in the cavity 2 through the robotic arm, so as to perform filling operations on the filling surface 9. In some embodiments, the robotic arm can adopt an existing serpentine robotic arm.

[0150] Further, the serpentine filling device has a crawling section 603 connected to the driving section, and the crawling section 603 is used to drive the driving section to move in the cavity 2; alternatively, the serpentine filling device has a wellbore traveling device connected to the driving section, and the wellbore traveling device is used to drive the driving section to move in the wellbore 1.

[0151] In some embodiments of the present invention, the functions of the crawling section 603 and the wellbore traveling device are both crawling functions, but the crawling section has passability in the wellbore, can be deployed inside the cavity and has a crawling function. Their functions are the same in structure, but the moving environments are different. The wellbore traveling device can be replaced by an ordinary pipeline crawler, but the crawling section has a deployable serpentine structure or leg structure. The crawling section 603 is used to drive the serpentine mining device and the serpentine filling device to move in the cavity 2, while the wellbore traveling device is used to drive the serpentine mining device and the serpentine filling device to move in the wellbore 1. Specifically, as Figure 7 shown, the crawling section 603 has crawling assemblies 1001 symmetrically arranged on two opposite sides of the crawling section 603. Among them, the crawling assembly 1001 can be, but is not limited to, a leg-shaped crawling mechanism, a claw-shaped crawling mechanism and a fin-shaped crawling mechanism. In this embodiment, the crawling mechanism and the driving device can form the crawling assembly.

[0152] Specifically, as Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, each crawling assembly 1001 includes at least two crawling sections and a driving device, the two crawling sections are respectively the first crawling section 1002 and the second crawling section 1005; one end of the first crawling section 1002 is connected to the crawling mechanism body 1008 through the first hinge structure 1003, and the other end of the first crawling section 1002 is connected to one end of the second crawling section 1005 through the second hinge structure 1006; the driving device includes at least two angle actuators, the first hinge structure 1003 and the second hinge structure 1006 are respectively connected to the two angle actuators, and the two angle actuators are respectively used to drive the first hinge structure 1003 and the second hinge structure 1006 to rotate. In this embodiment, the two angle actuators can be respectively the first drive motor 1004 and the second drive motor 1007, the output shaft of the first drive motor 1004 is connected to the first hinge structure 1003, and the output shaft of the second drive motor 1007 is connected to the second hinge structure 1006. The second driving motor 1007 can drive the lower end of the second crawling section 1005 to rotate in the direction close to or away from the driving section, that is, the crawling assembly 1001 can be retracted or unfolded. In the actual moving process, by controlling the lower end of the second crawling section 1005 to rotate in the direction away from the driving section, the lower end of the second crawling section 1005 can be raised during the process to avoid larger ore particles and ensure smooth movement. In the actual moving process, the first driving motor 1004 can drive the first crawling section 1002 to swing back and forth, and then drive the second crawling section 1005 thereon to move back and forth through the first crawling section 1002 to realize the moving action.

[0153] In the present application, the serpentine mining device and the serpentine filling device can use the same driving section, which can realize the movement in the cave 2 and the wellbore 1. Among them, the control mechanism includes one or more of the angle actuator 801, the telescopic actuator 802, the rotation actuator and the pulling actuator; the control mechanism in the through-wellbore three-dimensional mining device 3 is used to drive the through-wellbore three-dimensional mining device 3 to move in three-dimensional space; the control mechanism in the through-wellbore three-dimensional filling device 4 is used to drive the through-wellbore three-dimensional filling device 4 to move in three-dimensional space; the control mechanism in the through-wellbore three-dimensional cleaning device 5 is used to drive the through-wellbore three-dimensional cleaning device 5 to move in three-dimensional space.

[0154] like Figures 4 to 6As shown, the angle actuator 801 can be a hydraulic cylinder structure disposed between two adjacent joint segments. The two adjacent joint segments are hinged to each other (e.g., hinged through a universal shaft). The cylinder block of the hydraulic cylinder is disposed on one joint segment, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the other joint segment. By driving the extension length of the piston rod, the bending angle between the two joint segments can be adjusted. Additionally, the telescopic actuator 802 can be an electric telescopic rod connected between two adjacent joint segments. By controlling the telescopic length of the electric telescopic rod, the distance between the two adjacent joint segments can be controlled, thereby realizing the telescopic action.

[0155] Furthermore, as Figures 4 to 6 shown, the driving section further includes a control module 604 and a wellbore sensing module 807. The wellbore sensing module 807 can be disposed at the front ends of the first extended robotic arm 301 and the second extended robotic arm 401. The control module 604 is communicatively connected to the wellbore sensing module 807. By collecting the morphological information of the cavity 2 through the wellbore sensing module 807, at least the states of the mining face 7 and the filling face 9 can be known. Then, through the control module 604, the driving section is controlled to perform an action, thereby respectively controlling the snake-shaped mining device and the snake-shaped filling device to perform mining and filling operations.

[0156] In the present invention, the wellbore sensing module 807 can be, but is not limited to, one or more of a visual sensor, radar, sonar, geophone, force sensor, displacement sensor, pressure sensor, flow sensor, current sensor, potential sensor, magnetic sensor, and lidar disposed in the cavity 2. The wellbore sensing module 807 is communicatively connected to a communication terminal preset outside the well through one of cable communication, optical fiber communication, or wireless communication to achieve external communication. For example, the wellbore sensing module 807 can be a sonar device composed of a plurality of acoustic sensor arrays. Through the sonar device, the position of the cavity 2 wall surface and the mining degree can be detected in the liquid-filled cavity 2.

[0157] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, a first ore particle conveying channel 302 is provided inside the snake-shaped mining device. The first ore particle conveying channel 302 is used to discharge the ore particles in the cavity 2.

[0158] In some embodiments, when both the crushing assembly 3011 and the filling flow channel 402 are present, the snake-shaped mining device and the snake-shaped filling device can adopt the same structure (i.e., both the snake-shaped mining device and the snake-shaped filling device can perform filling and mining operations simultaneously).

By connecting the output shaft of the driving motor to the rotating shaft, the swing rods 60211 can be driven to swing. When it is necessary to position the snake-shaped mining device and the snake-shaped filling device, the driving motor is used to drive the swing rods 60211 to swing towards the inner wall of the wellbore 1 until the other opposite side of the top rod 60212 abuts against the inner wall of the wellbore 1, so that the snake-shaped mining device and the snake-shaped filling device can be fixed in the wellbore 1, realizing the position locking in the wellbore 1.

[0166] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the length of the snake-shaped mining device and / or the snake-shaped filling device is at least greater than three times the diameter of the wellbore 1, so that the front ends of the snake-shaped mining device and the snake-shaped filling device can extend into the cavity 2 to reach a preset position for mining and filling operations respectively.

The crawling assemblies 1001 are hinged to the crawling mechanism body 1008. The crawling mechanism body 1008 can be divided into multiple segments, and adjacent segments of the crawling mechanism body 1008 are rotatably connected through a hinge structure 508. The driving device is used to drive the crawling assemblies 1001 to perform crawling operations; the snake-shaped cleaning device has at least an unfolded state and a retracted state. When the snake-shaped cleaning device is in the retracted state, the aspect ratio of the snake-shaped cleaning device is greater than 3, and when the snake-shaped cleaning device moves along the wellbore 1, the axial direction of the snake-shaped cleaning device is consistent with the axial direction of the wellbore 1; the crawling mechanism body 1008 is hinged or rotatably connected to the crawling assemblies 1001, and at least a driving component including two degrees of freedom control quantities is further connected between the crawling assemblies 1001 and the crawling mechanism body 1008. The driving component is used to control the crawling mechanism body 1008 to perform crawling actions or switch between the retracted state and the unfolded state; there are a plurality of contact points between the crawling assemblies 1001 and the inner wall of the cavity 2, and at least two of the contact points are respectively located on both sides of the axial direction of the crawling mechanism body 1008, and the distance between the two contact points is greater than or equal to twice the wellbore diameter. Among them, the crawling assemblies 1001 can be, but are not limited to, leg-shaped crawling mechanisms, claw-shaped crawling mechanisms, and fin-shaped crawling mechanisms.

[0194] Specifically, as Figure 7As shown, the snake-shaped ore cleaning and transporting device based on the crawling principle includes a crawling mechanism body 1008, a crawling assembly 1001, and a rake 505. The crawling assembly 1001 performs a crawling operation under the action of a driving device. The rake 505 is hinged to the crawling mechanism body 1008, and a driving device is connected between the rake 505 and the crawling mechanism body 1008 for controlling the opening and closing movement of the rake 505 relative to the crawling mechanism body 1008. In this embodiment, the opening and closing movement of the rake 505 relative to the crawling mechanism body 1008 is realized by an angle actuator 801. The angle actuator 801 can be an electric cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, driving the rake 505 to rotate around the hinge point with the crawling mechanism body 1008 to perform the opening and closing movement. When the snake-shaped ore cleaning and transporting device enters the well hole 1 or crawls into the cavity 2, the rake 505 can be retracted. After finding the ore particle accumulation area in the cavity 2, the rake 505 is deployed, and the snake-shaped ore cleaning and transporting device is pulled back into the well hole 1 through the umbilical cable 509 behind the snake-shaped ore cleaning and transporting device, playing a role in cleaning and transporting ore particles. In this embodiment, the umbilical cable 509 is arranged in the well hole 1, and the two ends of the umbilical cable 509 are respectively connected to the snake-shaped ore cleaning and transporting device in the cavity 2 and the power supply outside the wellhead.

[0195] Specifically, as Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, each crawling assembly 1001 further includes at least two crawling segments and a driving device. The two crawling segments are respectively the first crawling segment 1002 and the second crawling segment 1005. One end of the first crawling segment 1002 is connected to the crawling mechanism body 1008 through a first hinge structure 1003, and the other end of the first crawling segment 1002 is connected to one end of the second crawling segment 1005 through a second hinge structure 1006. The driving device includes at least two angle actuators. The first hinge structure 1003 and the second hinge structure 1006 are respectively connected to the two angle actuators, and the two angle actuators are respectively used to drive the first hinge structure 1003 and the second hinge structure 1006 to rotate. In this embodiment, the two angle actuators can be respectively the first driving motor 1004 and the second driving motor 1007. The output shaft of the first driving motor 1004 is connected to the first hinge structure 1003, and the output shaft of the second driving motor 1007 is connected to the second hinge structure 1006. By the second driving motor 1007, the lower end of the second crawling segment 1005 can be driven to rotate towards or away from the driving section, that is, the folding or unfolding of the crawling assembly 1001 is realized. During the actual traveling process, by controlling the lower end of the second crawling segment 1005 to rotate away from the driving section, the lower end of the second crawling segment 1005 can be lifted during the traveling process, which is convenient for avoiding larger ore particles and ensuring smooth traveling. During the actual traveling process, the first driving motor 1004 can drive the first crawling segment 1002 to swing back and forth, and then drive the second crawling segment 1005 thereon to move back and forth through the first crawling segment 1002, realizing the traveling action. Among them, the positions where the second crawling segments 1005 in the two crawling assemblies 1001 located on the two opposite sides of the crawling mechanism body 1008 contact the inner wall of the cavity 2 are the two contact points between the crawling assembly 1001 and the inner wall of the cavity 2 as described above.

[0196] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, in the actual operation state, part or all of the through-hole three-dimensional mining device 3 is located in the well hole 1, part or all of the through-hole three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5 is located in the well hole 1, and / or part or all of the through-hole three-dimensional filling device 4 is located in the well hole 1. The through-hole three-dimensional mining device 3, the through-hole three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5, and the through-hole three-dimensional filling device 4 are communicated with the outside of the well through the flow channels inside them respectively, or the through-hole three-dimensional mining device 3, the through-hole three-dimensional cleaning and transporting device 5, and the through-hole three-dimensional filling device 4 directly extend to the outside of the well, so as to realize the communication between the inside of the cavity 2 and the outside of the well, so as to realize the transportation of ore particles.

[0197] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, a granular flow lifting device is provided in the traffic well system, and the granular flow lifting device transports ore particles in the form of a granular flow outside the well; wherein, the granular flow lifting device can be, but is not limited to, one of a mechanical lifting system, a fluid lifting system, or an air-lift hydraulic lifting system. Among them, a pipe string can be lowered into the traffic well system through any branch well hole 112 communicating with the cavern 2, and gas can be injected into the well through the pipe string, or gas can be injected into the well through the annulus between the pipe string and the well wall, so as to reduce the density of the granular flow in the well, thereby achieving the purpose of assisting the lifting of the ore particle flow. Of course, the injected gas can also be replaced with other particles having a density lower than that of the ore particles. In addition, a suction pump can also be lowered into the traffic well system, and the lifting of the ore particle flow in the well can be achieved through the suction effect.

[0198] As a more preferred embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 23 shown, the particles are lifted to the outside of the wellhead in the form of a granular flow by means of fluid circulation using the wellbore. The channels formed by the two well holes 1 are both communicated with the cavern 2. Among them, the three-dimensional cleaning device 5 for passing through the well hole is arranged in the right well hole 1, and the three-dimensional mining device 3 for passing through the well hole is arranged in the left well hole 1. Circulating fluid is injected from the left well hole 1 to increase the pressure in the cavern 2, and the three-dimensional cleaning device 5 for passing through the well hole is used to clean and transport the ore particles. The circulating fluid with pressure in the cavern 2 carries the ore particles to form a granular flow and discharges from the right well hole 1 to the wellhead.

[0199] As Figure 24 shown, as a more preferred embodiment of the present invention, the particles are lifted to the outside of the wellhead by means of mechanical transportation using the wellbore. In this embodiment, the granular lifting device passing through the wellbore can be a scraper lifting device or a screw lifting device. The scraper lifting device or the screw lifting device is arranged in the well hole configured as a return channel. Among them, the scraper lifting device drives the scraper to move in a cycle in the well hole 1 through a chain, so as to carry away the ore particles; as Figure 25 shown, the screw lifting device includes a driving rod 115 and a screw structure 116, and the driving rod 115 drives the screw structure 116 to rotate to carry away the ore particles. The above-mentioned scraper lifting device and screw lifting device both belong to the mechanical lifting system. In this embodiment, the external discharge of ore particles is carried out by combining the mechanical lifting system with the circulating fluid in the well hole 1, which can not only give play to the advantage of high fluid lifting efficiency, but also utilize mechanical lifting to solve the problem of blockage of the well hole 1, and can also crush the ore more fully. Especially in the horizontal section of the well hole 1, the mechanical lifting system can play a more crucial role.

[0200] It should be noted that the equipment involved in the present invention needs to be lowered from the outside of the wellhead to the underground, and it can be sent to the underground by using an existing pipeline crawler, by using a steel wire rope, or by using a drill pipe.

[0201] The characteristics and advantages of the deep formation borehole cavity mining system of the present invention are as follows:

[0202] 1. In this deep formation borehole cavity mining system, by filling the cavity 2 in real time during the mining process, the free surface area of the cavity is reduced, the free space volume is shrunk, and the stability of the cavity 2 is enhanced. Especially for the cavities 2 formed by mining in deep formations or non-hard formations, the requirements for support equipment can be effectively reduced. It can greatly reduce the spacing between cavities, or as mining progresses, the filling material acts as a barrier for the cavities, and the cavities move as mining progresses, which can improve the ore recovery rate.

[0203] 2. In this deep formation borehole cavity mining system, due to the arrangement of multiple boreholes 1, and both the through-borehole three-dimensional mining device 3 and the through-borehole three-dimensional filling device 4 have the ability to move. Through the controllable shape mining and controllable shape filling of the cavity 2, the free space shape and volume of the cavity 2 can be controllably maintained. Especially by utilizing the natural stability of strip-shaped cavities 2 or arched cavities 2 to maintain a mining working space with controllable shape and volume in real time. As the mining face 7 and the filling face 9 move forward, the controllable mining working space can move in real time as mining and filling progress, ensuring the stability of the cavity during the overall mining process.

[0204] 3. In this deep formation borehole cavity mining system, by cooperating the through-borehole three-dimensional mining device 3 with the through-borehole three-dimensional waste removal device 5, or by cooperating the through-borehole three-dimensional mining device 3, the through-borehole three-dimensional filling device 4 with the through-borehole three-dimensional waste removal device 5, the waste removal efficiency of ore particles can be effectively improved, especially suitable for large-scale and high-efficiency mining operations in deep formations or non-hard formations.

[0205] 4. For deep ore layers in this deep formation borehole cavity mining system, since large-diameter and large-free-space conventional mining equipment such as vertical shafts, roadways, and inclined shafts cannot be used for construction, the present invention uses devices with passability in the borehole 1 for mining operations such as mining, filling, and waste removal. In addition, since the present invention adopts a mining and development method without roadways, the present invention adopts a hierarchical crushing method to perform in-situ hierarchical crushing of the ore inside the cavity 2 formed by mining until the ore is crushed to a particle size range convenient for mixing into a particle flow (i.e., the particle size range safe for conveying in the borehole 1), and then discharged externally.

[0206] 5. This deep formation borehole cavity mining system aims to achieve mineral development through the borehole 1. Utilizing the three-dimensional movement characteristics of a snake, the snake-shaped mining device realizes three-dimensional controllable mining from the linear borehole 1 to the surface (i.e., the mining face 7) and then to the volume (i.e., the space inside the cavity 2). The snake-shaped mining device adopted by the present invention can achieve a larger range of crushing and better adapt to the special artificial geological environment of the borehole 1 - cavity 2.

[0207] VI. The deep - formation well - bore cavern mining system can achieve operation without adits. The mining and excavation equipment can not only meet the passability in small well - bores, but also carry out mining and filling operations in the cavern 2. Therefore, the present invention realizes controllable primary crushing and / or in - situ secondary crushing through the serpentine mining and excavation device, meeting the flexible movement inside the cavern 2. At the same time, in order to make full use of the characteristics of small well - bores being easy to fix and drag, it is convenient for the serpentine mining and excavation device to be fixed and moved in the well - bore 1, better utilizing the spatial layout of the well - bore, and realizing the well - bore mining and excavation technological process.

[0208] VII. The deep - formation well - bore cavern mining system can granulate the ore inside the cavern 2. Therefore, there is no need for adits or ore passes as ore transportation channels, which can better achieve adit - free mining. For the working conditions where the surface is covered by water bodies, the present invention can isolate the mining system from the water body through riser pipes and the shaft, and can develop the mineral resources inside the strata covered by water bodies through the well - bore 1, achieving the purpose of safely and efficiently developing underground mineral resources on the premise of protecting water bodies (such as the oceans on the earth's surface).

[0209] VIII. The deep - formation well - bore cavern mining system can solve the problem of rock fall during the mining and excavation process, and can in - situ crush the blocked fallen rocks, greatly improving the reliability of the system.

[0210] IX. The function of the cavern is to provide a temporary space for mining. After mining, the space needs to be filled through filling measures, eliminating the need for long - term support measures for the vertical shaft adits in the existing mining process. The present invention utilizes the characteristics that the cross - sectional area and volume of the well - bore are small and easy to be retained for a long time. Based on the well - bore, mining is carried out in the form of caverns, and the caverns are filled as they are mined. Even if only the three - dimensional mining and excavation device through the well - bore and the three - dimensional cleaning and transportation device through the well - bore are used to gradually excavate in the form of caverns and wait for the caverns to collapse after excavation, it will not affect the safety of the small - cross - section well - bore. In the case of using the three - dimensional filling device through the well - bore, controllable - shape filling can be realized, which can improve the filling rate and the roof - contacting effect of the caverns, avoiding stress concentration and stratum rheology, and affecting the adjacent mining areas. In addition, if adhesive filling or curable filling materials are used for filling, the filling body is part of the cavern wall surface, and the cavern moves as the mining progresses, which can greatly reduce waste.
