Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of coal mine water supply, and relates to a self-adaptive control water supply system for underground coal mine drilling and its control method, which is applicable to the water supply requirements under various drilling conditions in underground coal mines. Background Technique

[0002] Underground coal mine drilling construction is an important link to ensure the safe production of the mine, especially playing an irreplaceable role in gas control, coal seam mining, and geological exploration. During drilling construction, the water supply system, as the core part providing the flushing medium or power source, directly affects the construction efficiency and safety. At present, the typical working conditions that require the use of a mud pump for water supply in underground coal mine drilling include ordinary rotary drilling (high-pressure coal flushing), mechanical cavity-forming drilling, hard rock impact drilling, and directional drilling, etc. These working conditions usually use high-pressure clean water as the flushing medium or power source to meet the requirements of flushing coal slag in the hole, stabilizing the drill tool, and improving the drilling efficiency during the drilling process. However, the requirements for water pressure and flow rate vary significantly for different drilling working conditions. For example, the required water pressure for ordinary rotary drilling (high-pressure coal flushing) is about 8 - 10 MPa, and the flow rate requirement is between 150 - 200 L / min; the water pressure requirement range for hard rock impact drilling is 8 - 15 MPa, and the working flow rate is also 150 - 200 L / min; while directional drilling requires a higher water volume, the flow rate can reach 300 L / min, the water pressure range is 6 - 10 MPa, and it needs to be dynamically adjusted according to the actual working environment.

[0003] During the actual drilling process, the problem of flow rate and pressure matching of the water supply system has a particularly significant impact on the construction effect. If the water volume is too small, the coal slag in the hole cannot be discharged in time, easily leading to blockage in the hole, affecting the drilling progress, and even causing potential safety hazards; if the water volume is too large, although the coal slag can be effectively discharged, it will result in too high a proportion of slag in the flushing return water, bringing difficulties to the subsequent slag-water separation and coal slag metering, while causing waste of water resources and increasing the burden on the underground sump and sewage system. In addition, the size of the water pressure directly determines the drilling effect of the terminal drill tool. Insufficient water pressure may lead to low drilling efficiency, while too high water pressure may cause unnecessary damage to the equipment. Therefore, how to achieve precise matching of water supply flow rate and pressure has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in underground coal mine drilling construction.

[0004] At present, in coal mines, the gas is mainly controlled by the bottom drainage roadway. A water supply network is arranged in the bottom drainage roadway to supply water to the water tank of the slurry pump truck. However, most of the existing water supply networks are static pressure water systems. Their water volume and water pressure are limited by the overall design of the network, and no independent control device is set. This results in the water pressure and flow rate of the water supply network being easily interfered by other water use areas, with large fluctuations and unable to stably meet the requirements of drilling construction. In addition, the underground roadway usually has a certain slope and a long distance. The water volume and water pressure obtained by the drill sites with a higher slope from the network are often insufficient to support the drilling operation. In actual operation, the phenomenon of "grabbing water" often occurs: when the water consumption of the low-position drill site increases, the high-position drill site cannot operate normally due to the drop in water pressure, directly affecting the overall construction efficiency. In addition, the water supply capacity of the existing water supply network is difficult to adjust in real time according to the change of drilling load. Especially in the scenario of multiple drill sites operating simultaneously, there is a lack of an effective flow distribution mechanism between drill sites, resulting in the water supply system being difficult to adapt to the complex and changeable working conditions.

[0005] In the prior art, there are mainly two ways for the water supply system in coal mines. The first is the centralized emulsion liquid supply method, which realizes water supply through multi-pump pressurization combined with an electro-hydraulic control system. Although this method can provide stable high-pressure water supply, the overall design of the system is relatively large, occupying more roadway space, and it is mainly a constant-pressure liquid supply mode, unable to flexibly adapt to the needs of the drill rig for constant-flow high-pressure clean water. In addition, this system is not convenient to move frequently in narrow roadways and does not meet the actual needs of underground mobile operations. The second way is the application of a "one-to-one" high-pressure clean water pump station, that is, one pump station only serves one drill rig. Although this method can meet the water supply needs of a single drill rig, it cannot achieve the goal of one pump station supplying water to multiple drill sites simultaneously, with low equipment utilization rate. And when multiple drill sites are operating, multiple pump stations need to be configured, further increasing the equipment cost and roadway space occupation.

[0006] To sum up, the existing water supply systems in coal mines generally have problems such as insufficient flow matching, mutual interference in water supply for multiple drill sites, and poor system flexibility under the condition that the drilling working conditions change with the load. These deficiencies not only reduce the drilling construction efficiency but also increase the complexity of equipment configuration and resource management. Therefore, it is of great practical significance and application value to develop a water supply system and its control method that can adaptively adjust the flow rate and pressure according to the load demand and support the simultaneous operation of multiple drill sites. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to solve the above deficiencies and provide a coal mine underground drilling adaptive control water supply system and its control method to solve the problems of unmatched water supply flow rate and load during the drilling process, mutual influence of water supply for multiple drill sites, and insufficient system flexibility.

[0008] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0009] An adaptive control water supply system for underground drilling in a coal mine, comprising a power source system and an adaptive control water supply mechanism connecting the power source system and a water supply branch, and an electro-hydraulic pilot control system for controlling the adaptive control water supply mechanism;

[0010] The power source system includes a variable frequency motor and a mud pump, and the variable frequency motor drives the mud pump to provide water supply;

[0011] The adaptive control water supply mechanism comprises a high-pressure branch, a low-pressure branch and a drain pipe; the high-pressure branch, the low-pressure branch and the drain pipe are formed by connecting a constant pressure difference compensation flow control valve, a first hydraulically controlled reversing valve, a second hydraulically controlled reversing valve, a water pressure gauge and a flow meter through pipes; the constant pressure difference compensation flow control valve is used to control the total amount of water entering the water supply branch;

[0012] The first hydraulically controlled reversing valve is used to switch the working and unloading states of the adaptively controlled water supply mechanism; the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve is used to switch the high-pressure branch and the low-pressure branch in the adaptively controlled water supply mechanism on and off;

[0013] The electro-hydraulic pilot control system includes a pilot proportional control module, a first electromagnetic reversing valve and a second electromagnetic reversing valve, which are respectively connected to the constant pressure difference compensation flow control valve, the first hydraulically controlled reversing valve and the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve through hydraulic pipelines to control their actions and realize adaptive flow regulation of high-pressure water supply and low-pressure water supply under different working conditions.

[0014] Further, the first hydraulically controlled reversing valve and the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve each have three interfaces; the inlet of the constant pressure difference compensation flow control valve is connected to the water outlet pipeline of the mud pump, and the outlet is connected to the first interface of the first hydraulically controlled reversing valve; the second interface of the first hydraulically controlled reversing valve is connected to the first interface of the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve; the second interface of the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve is connected to the inlet of the flow meter; the outlet of the flow meter is connected to the load terminal; the water pressure gauge is arranged on the pipeline in front of the flow meter; the third interface of the first hydraulically controlled reversing valve is connected to the drain pipeline;

[0015] The third interface of the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve is connected to the inlet of the throttle valve; the outlet of the throttle valve is connected to the inlet of the one-way valve, and the outlet of the one-way valve is also connected to the inlet of the flow meter; the overflow valve is connected in parallel between the third interface of the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve and the drain pipeline;

[0016] When the first hydraulically controlled reversing valve is switched to the working state and the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve is switched to the high-pressure state, water is delivered to the load terminal through the high-pressure branch; when the first hydraulically controlled reversing valve is switched to the working state and the second hydraulically controlled reversing valve is switched to the low-pressure state, water is delivered to the load terminal through the low-pressure branch;

[0017] When the first hydraulic control reversing valve switches to the unloading state, the water flow is unloaded through the drain pipeline.

[0018] Furthermore, the constant differential pressure compensation flow control valve is an electro-hydraulic proportional control valve, and the signal of the pilot proportional control module is used to adjust the opening of the valve port to achieve stepless flow regulation.

[0019] Furthermore, the power source system further includes a safety valve and an accumulator. The safety valve is connected to the water outlet pipeline of the mud pump to limit the system pressure, and the accumulator is connected to the water outlet pipeline to stabilize the water supply pressure.

[0020] Furthermore, a pressure sensor is also provided in the power source system.

[0021] Furthermore, there is one or more adaptive control water supply mechanisms, and each adaptive control water supply mechanism corresponds to a water supply branch, and the flow of each branch is independently controlled.

[0022] Furthermore, the electro-hydraulic pilot control system further includes a pressure reducing valve. The pressure reducing valve takes oil from the drilling rig or hydraulic equipment and supplies hydraulic oil to the pilot proportional control module, the first electromagnetic reversing valve and the second electromagnetic reversing valve. The oil supply flow is not less than 15 L / min, and the oil supply pressure is not less than 5 MPa.

[0023] A control method for the adaptive control water supply system for underground coal mine drilling as described above. The working states of the adaptive control water supply system for underground coal mine drilling include a standby state, a high-pressure water supply state, and a low-pressure water supply state. The control methods for each working state are as follows:

[0024] Standby state: The pilot proportional control module outputs the minimum signal, the first electromagnetic reversing valve loses power, the first hydraulic control reversing valve switches to connect to the drain pipeline, and the water flow is unloaded through the drain pipeline.

[0025] High-pressure water supply state: The first electromagnetic reversing valve is powered on, the first hydraulic control reversing valve switches to the working state, the second electromagnetic reversing valve loses power, the second hydraulic control reversing valve switches to the high-pressure branch, the water flow is transported to the load terminal through the high-pressure branch, and the electro-hydraulic pilot control system forms a closed-loop control with the flow meter through the pilot proportional control module, and adaptively adjusts the water supply flow according to the demand of the load terminal.

[0026] Low-pressure water supply state: The first electromagnetic reversing valve is powered on, the first hydraulic control reversing valve switches to the working state, the second electromagnetic reversing valve is powered on, the second hydraulic control reversing valve switches to the low-pressure branch, the water flow is transported to the load terminal through the low-pressure branch, and the electro-hydraulic pilot control system forms a closed-loop control with the flow meter through the pilot proportional control module, and adaptively adjusts the water supply flow according to the demand of the load terminal.

[0027] Furthermore, in the low-pressure water supply state, the opening of the overflow valve is adjusted to limit the low-pressure water supply pressure.

[0028] Furthermore, the high-pressure water supply state is used for working conditions such as coal flushing in coal mines, mechanical cavity formation drilling, hard rock impact drilling, directional drilling, or other high-pressure and large-flow water supply.

[0029] Furthermore, the low-pressure water supply state is used for working conditions such as borehole slag discharge in coal mines or other low-pressure and small-flow water supply.

[0030] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0031] A self-adaptive control water supply system and its control method for boreholes in coal mines proposed by the present invention significantly improve the performance and adaptability of the water supply system in borehole construction in coal mines by introducing constant pressure difference compensation flow control technology and an electro-hydraulic pilot control system. Compared with the prior art, it has the following significant technical advantages and beneficial effects:

[0032] 1. Achieve self-adaptive and precise adjustment of water supply flow rate, and solve the problem of flow rate matching under load changes

[0033] The present invention uses a constant pressure difference compensation flow control valve as the core control element, and forms a closed-loop control system in cooperation with a pilot proportional control module and a flow meter, which can adaptively adjust the water supply flow rate according to the real-time change of the drilling load. Whether it is a high-pressure and large-flow working condition (such as coal flushing, hard rock impact drilling, directional drilling, water pressure requirement 6 - 15 MPa, flow rate 150 - 300 L / min), or a low-pressure and small-flow working condition (such as borehole slag discharge), the system can ensure the precise matching of water volume and actual demand through the stepless adjustment function of the electro-hydraulic proportional control valve. This characteristic effectively solves the problems in the prior art such as blockage of coal slag in the borehole due to insufficient water volume, or waste of resources and difficulty in back-end slag-water separation caused by excessive water volume, thereby improving the stability and efficiency of borehole construction.

[0034] 2. Support simultaneous operation of multiple drill fields, and eliminate water supply interference and "water grabbing" phenomenon

[0035] The self-adaptive control water supply mechanism of the present invention designs independent high-pressure and low-pressure branches, and realizes flexible switching and independent control between branches through the first hydraulic control reversing valve and the second hydraulic control reversing valve. The system supports the parallel operation of one or more self-adaptive control water supply mechanisms, each mechanism corresponding to a water supply branch, and the flow rates of each branch do not interfere with each other. This design completely eliminates the water pressure fluctuation and "water grabbing" phenomenon in the traditional water supply network caused by multiple drill fields sharing the same water source. Especially in the operation of high-position drill fields with a large slope and long distance in the bottom extraction roadway, it can ensure stable water pressure and flow rate supply. Compared with the existing "one-to-one" high-pressure pump station or centralized liquid supply system, the present invention significantly improves the equipment utilization rate and the collaborative operation ability of multiple drill fields.

[0036] 3. Optimize the system structure to reduce the occupation of roadway space and the burden of equipment transfer

[0037] The present invention integrates the design of the power source system (frequency conversion motor and mud pump) and the adaptive control water supply mechanism, with a compact structure and small floor area, which is particularly suitable for the mobile operation requirements in narrow underground roadways. Compared with the existing centralized emulsion liquid supply system, this system avoids the equipment complexity and space occupation problems brought by multi-pump pressurization; compared with the "one-to-one" pumping station mode, it reduces the configuration requirements of multiple pumping stations, reduces the number of equipment transfers and maintenance costs. In addition, the design of the drain pipe of the system enables the water flow to be quickly unloaded in the standby state, further simplifying the operation process and improving the switching efficiency of the equipment under different working conditions.

[0038] 4. Improve the level of automatic control, with simple operation and safe and reliable

[0039] The present invention realizes the automatic management of the water supply process through the electro-hydraulic pilot control system. The pilot proportional control module combines the first electromagnetic directional valve and the second electromagnetic directional valve, which can automatically adjust the state of the hydraulic control directional valve according to the preset working conditions (such as standby, high-pressure water supply, low-pressure water supply), without frequent manual intervention, reducing the operation difficulty and the risk of human error. At the same time, the safety valve and accumulator equipped in the power source system respectively limit the system pressure and stabilize the water supply pressure to ensure the safety of the system during high-pressure operation; the pressure reducing valve provides stable hydraulic oil for the electro-hydraulic control components (oil supply flow ≥ 15L / min, pressure ≥ 5MPa), ensuring the control accuracy and reliability. These characteristics make the system operate more stably and have stronger adaptability in complex underground environments.

[0040] 5. Save water resources and reduce the burden on the underground sewage system

[0041] The present invention avoids the waste problem caused by excessive water volume in the traditional constant-pressure water supply system through the flow rate adaptive adjustment function. In the low-pressure water supply state, the opening adjustment of the overflow valve further limits the water supply pressure to ensure that the water volume output is consistent with the actual demand, reducing the situation of too high slag-water ratio in the punching return slag water. This not only facilitates the separation of slag and water and the measurement of coal slag at the back end, but also reduces water resource consumption and the operation load of the underground sump and sewage system, with significant environmental and economic benefits.

[0042] 6. Widely applicable to various working conditions and improve the construction flexibility

[0043] The water supply system of the present invention can flexibly switch between the high-pressure water supply state and the low-pressure water supply state to meet the requirements of various drilling conditions in coal mines. For example, the high-pressure water supply state is suitable for high-pressure and large-flow scenarios such as coal washing, mechanical cavity formation drilling, hard rock impact drilling, and directional drilling; while the low-pressure water supply state is suitable for low-pressure and small-flow scenarios such as drilling slag discharge. The versatility of the system enables it to cover a wide range of applications from ordinary rotary drilling to complex directional drilling. Compared with the single-function water supply systems in the prior art, it has higher construction flexibility and adaptability.

[0044] In summary, through the innovative application of the constant pressure difference compensation flow control technology and the electro-hydraulic pilot control system, the present invention realizes the dynamic matching of the water supply flow and the load demand, independent water supply for multiple drill fields, system structure optimization, and automatic control. Compared with the prior art, this system not only improves the drilling construction efficiency and safety, but also reduces the equipment cost, water resource waste, and environmental burden, showing significant technological progress and practical value, and providing an efficient and reliable water supply solution for drilling operations in coal mines.

[0093] 3. Electro-hydraulic pilot control system

[0094] The electro-hydraulic pilot control system includes a pressure reducing valve 10, a pilot proportional control module 11, a first electromagnetic directional control valve 12, and a second electromagnetic directional control valve 13. The pressure reducing valve 10 takes oil from the hydraulic equipment, with a supply flow rate of 25 L / min and a pressure of 7 MPa, which is reduced to 3 MPa. The pilot proportional control module 11 independently controls the constant differential pressure compensation flow control valves 1 of the two branches. The first electromagnetic directional control valve 12 and the second electromagnetic directional control valve 13 respectively control the first hydraulic control directional control valve 2 and the second hydraulic control directional control valve 3 of the two branches.

[0095] 4. Control method

[0096] This embodiment supports the simultaneous operation of two branches:

[0097] Standby state: The pilot proportional control module 11 outputs the minimum signal of 4 mA for both branches. The first electromagnetic directional control valve 12 is de-energized, and the first hydraulic control directional control valve 2 switches to the drain pipeline, and the water flow is unloaded.

[0098] High-pressure water supply (coal washing) for Branch 1: The first electromagnetic directional control valve 12 is energized, and the first hydraulic control directional control valve 2 switches to the working state; the second electromagnetic directional control valve 13 is de-energized, and the second hydraulic control directional control valve 3 switches to the high-pressure branch. The water flow path is: mud pump → constant differential pressure compensation flow control valve 1 → first hydraulic control directional control valve 2 → second hydraulic control directional control valve 3 → flowmeter 8 → load terminal. The flow rate is 200 L / min, the water pressure is 10 MPa, and it is adjusted by closed-loop control.

[0099] Low-pressure water supply (slag discharge) for Branch 2: The first electromagnetic directional control valve 12 is energized, and the first hydraulic control directional control valve 2 switches to the working state; the second electromagnetic directional control valve 13 is energized, and the second hydraulic control directional control valve 3 switches to the low-pressure branch. The water flow path is: mud pump → constant differential pressure compensation flow control valve 1 → first hydraulic control directional control valve 2 → second hydraulic control directional control valve 3 → throttle valve 5 → check valve 6 → flowmeter 8 → load terminal. The flow rate is 50 L / min, and the pressure is limited to 3 MPa by the overflow valve 4, and it is adjusted by closed-loop control.

[0100] This embodiment realizes simultaneous water supply for high-pressure coal washing at 200 L / min and 10 MPa and low-pressure slag discharge at 50 L / min and 3 MPa. Each branch does not interfere with each other, the construction efficiency is increased by about 25%, and the water resource utilization rate is increased by about 20%.
