Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a small coal pillar expansion behavior test system and method for an inclined coal seam taking into account the influence of gangue accumulation in a goaf area, belonging to the technical field of small coal pillar expansion deformation test in a goaf-side tunneling of an inclined coal seam in a coal mine. Background Art
[0002] Mining without coal pillars or with small coal pillars has the advantages of reducing resource waste and improving resource recovery rate. With the promotion of green mining theory, it has been widely used in my country. Gob-side roadway driving is a common method in small coal pillar mining technology. It refers to the roadway driven along the edge of the gob of the previous longwall working face to the next working face. A 4-8m small coal pillar is often left between the new roadway and the gob to isolate the gob. For inclined coal seams, affected by the inclination of the coal seam, the small coal pillars in the gob-side roadway driving will be squeezed by the gangue accumulation in the gob, resulting in a significant difference in their deformation and damage compared with horizontal or near-horizontal coal seams. In addition, in the process of gob-side roadway driving, the coal pillars are more severely deformed by the gradient load generated by the rotation and sinking of the lateral roof and the displacement constraint in the length direction of the coal pillars, and often break and expand, and even squeeze into the roadway as a whole. Therefore, accurately grasping the expansion and deformation behavior of small coal pillars in gob-side roadway driving in inclined coal seams under real stress environment is of great significance for guiding the stability control of coal pillars in engineering sites.
[0003] In the prior art, Chinese patent document CN115184584A discloses a two-dimensional physical simulation test device and method with adjustable size and angle, and Chinese patent document CN104237462A discloses a steeply inclined coal seam gangue filling test device and test method, both of which can be used to simulate the goaf-side tunneling of inclined coal seams. However, the above methods do not consider the influence of the gangue accumulation degree after the goaf collapse on the coal pillar of the goaf-side tunneling, nor can they realize the gradient load effect caused by the lateral roof rotation and sinking above the small coal pillar and the displacement constraint in the length direction of the coal pillar, which is of little significance for guiding the stability control of the coal pillar under actual engineering conditions.
[0004] Chinese patent document CN111208010A discloses a method for simulating the rotation and breaking of roof strata. This method uses a roof strata rotation and breaking loading device to load the sample, effectively restoring the effect of lateral roof rotation on small coal pillars along goaf. However, this method does not consider the displacement constraint of the coal pillar in the length direction and the influence of the coal seam inclination and the accumulation of gangue in the goaf area. Moreover, the roof strata rotation and breaking loading device in this method can only simulate the rotation of the lateral roof of goaf, while in actual engineering, the rotation and sinking of the lateral roof exist at the same time, which is inconsistent with the actual engineering and cannot accurately obtain the mechanical characteristics of the small coal pillar. Summary of the invention
