Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of roadway treatment, and in particular to an integrated treatment method for freezing-grouting-supporting of the roof of a loess roadway by drilling holes. Background Art

[0002] In mining engineering, the treatment of the roof of a loess roadway has always been a difficult problem. At present, the traditional treatment methods often have limited effects when facing complex geological conditions. For example, when using traditional methods such as shotcreting, timbering, and grouting reinforcement with cable bolting and wire mesh to treat the roof caving area of a loess roadway, since the roof is covered by loose and easily flowing loess, these methods cannot effectively control the continuous caving of the loess, which affects the removal of the loess in the roadway and the repair of the roof.

[0003] The roof of a loess roadway is prone to roof fall, which has a serious impact on underground production and even causes casualties. At the same time, the roof of a loess roadway is also prone to slime problems. Therefore, there are many problems in the current treatment of the roof of a loess roadway, and there is an urgent need for a more effective treatment method to deal with complex geological conditions and ensure the safety of the roadway.

Specific embodiments

[0039] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0040] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0041] Refer to Figure 1 As shown, there are an immediate roof 2, a main roof 3, a loess layer 4, and a yellow mud layer 5 above the coal seam 1. There is a large - scale yellow mud layer 5 above a certain coal seam 1, and it is necessary to treat this yellow mud layer 5.

[0042] Since the area of the yellow mud region is large, it is not suitable for one - time consolidation. Therefore, in actual treatment, a method of combining two roadways is adopted for operation. Specifically, the treatment work is first carried out in one of the roadways (roadway one 101), and after its completion, the treatment is carried out in the other roadway (roadway two 102). Through such a sequence and mutual cooperation, the comprehensive treatment of the yellow mud region is finally achieved.

[0043] Refer to Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the present invention provides an integrated treatment method for freezing - grouting - supporting of boreholes in the roof of a yellow mud roadway, including the following steps:

[0044] S1. According to the thickness of the yellow mud layer 5, the yellow mud layer 5 is divided into multiple layers; in this embodiment, specifically, the yellow mud layer 5 is divided into upper and lower two layers for step - by - step treatment, that is, the lower yellow mud layer 51 and the upper yellow mud layer 52.

[0045] S2. In roadway 101, the lower main road 6 is opened by drilling upward. The lower main road 6 is set at an angle of 45° with the horizontal plane and reaches the lower yellow mud layer 51. Horizontal drilling is carried out in the lower yellow mud layer 51. During the horizontal drilling process, branch drilling is adopted to drill a lower horizontal branch 61. The lower horizontal branch 61 extends horizontally along the yellow mud layer 5 and reaches the designed position.

[0046] In a specific embodiment, the setting angle of the main road (including the lower main road 6 and the upper main road 7) can be 30° - 60°.

[0047] In a specific embodiment, multiple lower horizontal branches 61 need to be drilled to form a larger coverage area. For example, in this embodiment, 4 lower horizontal branches 61 are designed and arranged by directional drilling, including the first horizontal branch, the second horizontal branch, the third horizontal branch, and the fourth horizontal branch. The distance between adjacent lower horizontal branches 61 is 5 m, and the 4 lower horizontal branches 61 are distributed in a trident shape.

[0048] In a specific embodiment, during the drilling process, a casing is used as the drill pipe. The drill pipe includes an outer pipe body 11 and an inner pipe body 12 that are sleeved with each other. A number of outer pipe holes 13 with a diameter of 5 cm are opened on the outer pipe body 11. The distance between adjacent outer pipe holes 13 is 20 - 30 cm, preferably 30 cm.

[0049] S3. Inject liquid nitrogen into the drill pipe. The liquid nitrogen enters the lower horizontal branch 61 through the drill pipe and then is injected into the yellow mud, freezing the yellow mud, reducing its fluidity and deformability, and achieving temporary consolidation.

[0050] In step S3, liquid nitrogen is injected into the drill pipe through an injection device. When injecting nitrogen, the injection rate is 20 - 30 L / min, the injection pressure is 5 - 10 MPa, the injection time is 10 - 15 min, and the injection range 8 is a radius of 3 - 5 m along the periphery of the drill pipe.

[0051] In a specific embodiment, liquid nitrogen is directly injected into the drill pipe through an injection gun. When injecting nitrogen, the injection rate is 20 L / min, the injection pressure is set at 5 MPa, the injection time is 10 min, and the injection range 8 is a radius of 3 m along the periphery of the drill pipe. Under the action of the injection gun pressure, the liquid nitrogen enters the yellow mud through the outer pipe holes 13.

[0052] S4. After the yellow mud around the previous lower horizontal branch 61 is completely frozen, repeat steps S2 - S3 to complete the drilling, nitrogen injection, and consolidation of the next lower horizontal branch 61. Repeat the cycle to complete the drilling, nitrogen injection, and consolidation of all lower horizontal branches 61 until the lower layer of the yellow mud area is completely frozen.

[0053] S5. After the lower layer 51 of the yellow mud is completely frozen, the mixture of the organic polymer material Marisal (polyimide resin material) is directly injected into each lower horizontal branch 61 through an injection gun. The injected slurry enters the yellow mud area through the holes 13 of the outer pipe under the action of pressure and reacts with the yellow mud to achieve permanent consolidation.

[0054] In step S5, the grouting speed is 20 - 30 L / min, the grouting pressure is 5 - 10 MPa, the grouting time is 10 - 15 min, the grouting range 9 is a radius of 3 - 5 m along the periphery of the drill pipe. The slurry mixture coagulates within 50 - 100 min, and the final strength can reach 65 - 80 MPa.

[0055] In a specific embodiment, the grouting speed is set to 25 L / min, the grouting pressure is set to 10 MPa, the grouting time is 15 min, and the grouting range 9 is a radius of 3 m along the periphery of the lower horizontal branch 61. The final strength of the slurry mixture can reach 72 MPa after coagulation.

[0056] In a specific embodiment, after the grouting is completed, the coagulation situation of the grouting liquid is judged to check the grouting quality. If it is unqualified, re - grouting is required; if it is qualified, the treatment of the lower layer 51 of the yellow mud is completed.

[0057] S6. After the consolidation of the lower layer 51 of the yellow mud, repeat steps S1 - S5 to complete the operations of directional drilling, liquid nitrogen freezing, grouting reinforcement, etc. for the upper layer 52 of the yellow mud, and take cores for grouting quality inspection to judge whether the treatment of the upper layer is qualified.

[0058] Specifically, in the roadway 101, the upper main road 7 is opened by drilling upward. The upper main road 7 is set at an angle of 60° with the horizontal. The upper main road 7 reaches the upper layer 52 of the yellow mud. Horizontal drilling is carried out in the upper layer 52 of the yellow mud. During the horizontal drilling process, the branch drilling method is adopted to drill an upper horizontal branch 71. The upper horizontal branch 71 extends horizontally along the upper layer 52 of the yellow mud and reaches the design position. Multiple upper horizontal branches 71 also need to be drilled. For example, in this embodiment, 4 upper horizontal branches 71 are also designed and arranged by directional drilling. The spacing between two adjacent upper horizontal branches 71 is 5 m, and the 4 upper horizontal branches 71 are distributed in a trident shape.

[0059] The drilling of the upper horizontal branch 71 and the subsequent operations of nitrogen injection, grouting, and consolidation are the same as those of the lower horizontal branch 61, and will not be elaborated here.

[0060] S7. After the yellow mud layer 5 is stabilized by grouting reinforcement and forms an overall load - bearing structure, install anchor cables and complete drilling, installing anchor cables, and tensioning and locking in sequence.

[0061] In a specific embodiment, after the yellow mud in the above area is consolidated, the same method is adopted, and the same steps are carried out in the second roadway 102, so that the entire yellow mud layer 5 is consolidated, and finally the treatment task of the loess layer 4 is successfully completed.

[0062] For the large-scale loess layer 4 area above the coal seam 1, the method of combining two roadways can be adopted, that is, first treat in the first roadway 101 and then treat in the second roadway 102; or the method of treating at intervals can be adopted to gradually complete the treatment of the entire area.

[0063] It should be understood that in practical applications, the use of the upper and lower layers for treatment in the present invention is only an example of an implementation manner and does not limit the treatment manner. If the thickness of the yellow mud layer 5 is large, it can be divided into multiple layers for treatment, and the tunneling and consolidation treatment of the yellow mud layer 5 are completed layer by layer using the same steps.

[0064] The details not described in the present invention are all conventional technical means well known to those skilled in the art.

[0065] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present invention, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.

[0066] The above-described embodiments are only used to describe the preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various deformations and improvements made by those of ordinary skill in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
