[0033] The development engineering of the traditional shrinkage stoping method includes raises, crosscuts, sill drifts, and bottom funnel structures. All the development engineering of this type of mining method is driven and constructed within the ore and rock mass to provide necessary passageways for the mining and extraction operations. Among them, raises are generally arranged in the intermediate pillars between two stopes or in the hanging wall rock of the upward panel. When arranged by the traditional drilling and blasting method, the raises must be arranged all at once before the mining operation can be carried out, which has the disadvantages of long construction period, high cost, great difficulty, and high operation risks.

[0034] To solve the technical problems of the long construction period, high cost, great difficulty, and high operation risks of the traditional raise construction, this application provides an assembled raise construction method that rises with the mining face. Among them, by improving the raise layout method, while maintaining the original function of the raise, the construction safety, efficiency, and economy are significantly improved, the construction difficulty and risks are reduced, and an efficient, safe, and economic solution is provided for the mining operation.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 , the embodiment of this application provides an assembled raise construction method that rises with the mining face, including the following steps:

[0036] S1. Divide the ore body in the level into stopes, construct the manways, sill drifts, and the bottom structures of the ore-drawing funnels 2 at both ends of the stope, and draw ore in the sill drift.

[0037] S2. Install the first layer of assembled raises 1 near the intermediate pillars 4 at both ends inside the stope. The assembled raise 1 is composed of several I-beam crossbeams 101 and vertical baffles 102. The two ends of the I-beam crossbeam 101 are fixed to the surrounding rock by bolts 103, and the vertical baffles 102 are fixed between the I-beam crossbeams 101 to form a square barrel-shaped space; after the installation is completed, carry out blasting for ore caving and ore drawing operations.

[0038] S3. Install the assembled raises 1 layer by layer, and the installation position rises synchronously with the mining face; after each layer of the assembled raise 1 is installed, carry out blasting for ore caving and ore drawing operations, and gradually expand the installation upward until it is installed to the top of the stope.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, after the ore body is divided and arranged into mining areas using the ore-retention mining method, pedestrian skylights, bottom lanes and the bottom structure of the ore discharge funnel 2 at both ends of the construction area are constructed to provide the necessary infrastructure for pedestrians, transportation and ore discharge. After the collapsed slag is removed in the bottom lane, the two ends are ensured to be flat, and the first layer of prefabricated skylight 1 is installed before the first top blasting mining. Specifically, the first layer of prefabricated skylight 1 is installed near the two end columns 4 inside the mining area to form a stable passage and operating platform. The I-beam 101 is fixed by anchor rods 103, which enhances the stability of the structure and reduces the risk of collapse. The mining width is consistent with the length of the I-beam 101. According to the rise of the mining working face, the prefabricated skylight 1 is installed layer by layer, realizing the dynamic adjustment of the skylight and adapting to the constant changes of the mining working face. After the installation of each layer of prefabricated skylight 1 is completed, blasting and ore discharge operations are carried out, which improves the mining efficiency and resource utilization of the ore, reduces the safety risks during the construction process, and improves the safety of the construction.

[0040] Furthermore, in the embodiments of this application, the stope is 50-90m long and 35-45m high. Based on the stope's length and height, the mining and preparation engineering is rationally arranged to ensure that the layout of the pedestrian skylight, bottom laneway, and bottom structure of the ore draw funnel 2 meets mining requirements. The construction of the foundation structure provides stable support and access for the subsequent installation of the prefabricated skylight 1 and mining operations.

[0041] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present application, the diameter of the discharge opening of the ore-drawing funnel 2 is 1-2m, and the spacing between the ore-drawing funnels 2 is 4.5-5m. In this way, by setting up a plurality of ore-drawing funnels 2 on the bottom pillar 3, the ore can be discharged quickly and smoothly, the ore-drawing efficiency can be improved, and the ore-drawing cycle can be shortened.

[0042] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 As shown, the length of the I-beam 101 is 1.2~1.5m and the thickness is 0.5~1m. The I-beam 101 is evenly distributed at intervals of 0.5~1m along the height direction of the skylight. The thickness of the vertical baffle 102 is 0.4~0.6cm, the width is 0.2~0.3m, and the length is equal to the spacing between the I-beams 101. The length of the I-beam 101 determines the width of the skylight, while the installation position of the I-beam 101 determines the length of the skylight. The thickness of the I-beam 101 is a key factor in determining its load-bearing capacity. Thicker beams can withstand greater loads, including the impact force generated by blasting, the weight of ore, and the weight of personnel and equipment. The spacing of the I-beam 101 determines the spacing between the support points of the vertical baffle 102, which in turn affects the stability and load-bearing capacity of the entire skylight. The width and thickness of the vertical baffles 102 can enhance the overall stability of the patio and prevent the vertical baffles 102 from being displaced or falling off when impacted.

[0043] Furthermore, in the embodiments of the present application, as Figure 1 shown, the distance between the installation position of the prefabricated shaft 1 and the adjacent intermediate pillar 4 is 1.2 - 1.5 m. The lower part of the prefabricated shaft 1 is connected to the pedestrian shaft connection roadway, and the upper part is 0.5 - 1 m away from the roof. The installation height of each layer of the prefabricated shaft 1 is 1.5 - 2 m.

[0044] Specifically, in some embodiments, the first blasting is designed to break down about 1.4 m of the roof ore body, forming a slag layer of about 1.6 m. That is, the height of the first layer of the installed shaft is about 1.8 m. The lower part of the shaft is connected to the pedestrian shaft connection roadway, and the upper part cannot be too close to the roof to ensure a certain space height requirement for personnel access. The distance between the installation position of the prefabricated shaft 1 and the adjacent intermediate pillar 4 is 1.2 - 1.5 m, that is, the length of the shaft is 1.2 - 1.5 m. According to the designed shaft height, a number of I-beam crossbeams 101 are fixed on the surrounding rock of the upper and lower plates by bolts 103. The bolts 103 are split tube bolts with a length of 1 - 1.5 m. The I-beam crossbeams 101 are wrapped by vertical baffles 102 with a thickness of 0.4 - 0.6 cm. The vertical baffles 102 are steel plates and are fixed to the crossbeams at both ends by wire, forming a square barrel-shaped space. That is, the first layer of the prefabricated shaft 1 is formed, and a ladder can be installed inside for use. Figure 1 The arrow in the figure indicates the direction of air flow. After the first blasting is completed, 30 - 35% of the ore is released, and then the second layer of the prefabricated shaft 1 can be installed. The second layer of the shaft is required to be above the first layer of the shaft and 0.5 - 1 m away from the roof. After installing the shafts on both sides according to the above method, the second layer of blasting for ore caving can be started. According to this method, the shafts are continuously installed. As the mining working face rises, the shafts are gradually installed and raised until they are installed at the required position of the uppermost layer of the stope. The installation methods of the shafts at both ends of the stope are the same.

[0045] As Figure 1 shown, the traditional rock roadway shaft 5 is arranged in the intermediate pillar 4 and is excavated and arranged by the traditional drilling and blasting method. Compared with the traditional rock roadway shaft 5, the prefabricated shaft 1 that rises with the mining working face provided by the present application has the following significant advantages:

[0046] (1) Reducing the mining and cutting ratio and saving the engineering quantity: Compared with the conventional drilling and blasting method for driving shafts, the mining and cutting ratio of a stope is reduced from about 35 m 3 / kt to 14 - 15 m 3 / kt.

[0047] (2) Significantly reducing the cost: The driving cost of the drilling and blasting shaft is about 200,000 yuan, while the installation cost of the prefabricated shaft 1 is about 30,000 yuan, and the prefabricated components can be recycled with a recycling cost of about 10,000 yuan. Therefore, the cost of forming the shaft in each stope can be saved by about 180,000 yuan.

[0048] (3) Shorten the construction period: When using the drill and blast tunneling method, the raise construction period for one stope is 40 - 50 days, while for the prefabricated raise 1, it only takes 20 days, saving 20 - 30 days of construction period.

[0049] (4) Improve safety: The prefabricated raise 1 avoids the construction safety risks of the drill and blast raise, improving the construction safety.

[0050] (5) Reduce the subsequent works: The prefabricated raise 1 reduces the post - mining plugging works, lowering the subsequent maintenance cost.

[0051] (6) Comply with safety codes: After the installation of the prefabricated raise 1 is completed, it complies with the safety regulations and codes of the state and the industry.

[0052] In summary, the prefabricated raise construction method provided in this application that rises with the mining face has significant economic and social benefits. It not only reduces costs, shortens the construction period, improves safety, but also reduces the subsequent project volume, complies with the safety code requirements of the state and the industry, and has significant technical and economic effects and broad prospects for popularization and application.

[0053] It should be noted that this application is not limited to the above - mentioned implementation manners. The above - mentioned implementation manners are only examples, and implementation manners with the same structure and the same function and effect as the technical idea within the technical solution scope of this application are all included in the technical scope of this application. In addition, within the scope not departing from the main idea of this application, various deformations that those skilled in the art can think of imposed on the implementation manners and other manners constructed by combining some constituent elements in the implementation manners are also included in the scope of this application.
