[0066] The storage component 5 includes a box body 51. A limiting groove 54 is provided on the inner wall of the box body 51. An electric motor 510 and a gear reduction box 511 are respectively installed on the inner wall of the limiting groove 54. A lead screw 55 is fixed to the output shaft end of the gear reduction box 511. A cross plate 58 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the lead screw 55. A placement rack 53 is fixed to one side of the cross plate 58. A number of bolts are placed on the top of the placement rack 53, and the bolts near the upper side inside the box body 51 are taken out first for assisting the use of the anchoring module 8.
[0067] At the bottom of the inner wall of the limit groove 54, there are two sliding columns 59 fixedly installed and movably penetrating through one side of the cross plate 58. At the top of the sliding columns 59, there are first limit blocks 56 fixedly installed. At the top of the lead screw 55, there are second limit blocks 57 fixedly installed. The output shaft of the motor 510 drives the input shaft of the gear reduction box 511 to rotate. After the speed is reduced and the torque is increased by the gear reduction box 511, the output shaft of the gear reduction box 511 drives the lead screw 55 to rotate. The lead screw 55 is threadedly connected to the cross plate 58. The output shaft of the motor 510 is fixedly installed on the input shaft of the gear reduction box 511. On one side of the top of the box body 51, there is a box cover 52 hinged. The cross plate 58 drives the placement rack 53 to move upward along the sliding columns 59, raising the anchor rod located at the bottom of the box body 51, facilitating the workers to take out the anchor rod for use. The bottom of the box body 51 is fixedly installed on the top of the placement table 3. The bottom of the first support frame 62 is installed on one side of the crawler-type walking mechanism 1.
[0068] Working principle: When the robot cuts coal and rock in the roadway of the coal mine, the crawler-type walking mechanism 1 drives the cutting module 2 to move towards the coal and rock side. The cutting arm unit 21 crushes and cuts the coal and rock. The torque sensor 22 measures the torque change of the cutting arm unit 21 during the tunneling process. The vision unit 23 monitors the situation of the tunneling face according to the data of the torque sensor 22. The data is used by the control module 10 to adjust the tunneling path and cutting depth, realizing real-time adjustment of the cutting speed and feed speed to achieve full-section cutting.
[0069] The coal and rock are transported to the conveying module 9 through the loading module 4, and the coal and rock fragments are transported from the tunneling face to the ground or a designated treatment area. Moreover, the surface area of the placement table 3 is relatively large, and more auxiliary materials can be placed.
[0070] During the cutting of coal and rock, the support modules 6 on both sides provide support for the anchoring module 8. The electric push rod 61 provides the power source for the second support frame 63. The outside of the second support frame 63 is slidably connected to the inside of the first support frame 62. The positioning unit 64 monitors the position information of the second support frame 63, enabling the anchoring module 8 to install the anchor rod on the roadway. The modular anchoring support and the zoning and step-by-step support technology achieve accurate positioning of the support spacing and row spacing, and simultaneous support in multiple areas.
[0071] When the anchor rods inside the anchoring module 8 are used up, the workers first take out the anchor rods on the top of the box body 51 for use. After the anchor rods near the upper side inside the box body 51 are taken out, only under the control of the control module 10, the output shaft of the motor 510 drives the input shaft of the gear reduction box 511 to rotate. After the speed is reduced and the torque is increased by the gear reduction box 511, the output shaft of the gear reduction box 511 drives the lead screw 55 to rotate. The lead screw 55 is threadedly connected to the cross plate 58, enabling the cross plate 58 to drive the placement rack 53 to move upward along the sliding columns 59, raising the anchor rod located at the bottom of the box body 51, facilitating the workers to take out the anchor rod for use.
[0072] In summary, by adopting a fully electric power system and a fully electric control system, and through the coordinated use of the torque sensor 22 and the vision unit 23, the robot can sense the torque changes and the tunneling face conditions during the tunneling process, adjust the tunneling path and cutting depth in real time, and optimize the cutting according to the actual hardness and structure of the coal and rock, avoiding unnecessary energy consumption and time waste, thereby improving the overall operation efficiency.
[0073] By providing a power source through the electric push rod 61, the second support frame 63 can be slidably connected to the inner side of the first support frame 62 on the outside, simplifying the adjustment process of the support structure, thereby improving the efficiency of the support operation. The positioning unit 64 enables the positioning of the support spacing and row spacing, reducing the time for manual measurement and adjustment, and further improving the support efficiency. The support modules 6 on both sides provide a solid support for the anchoring module 8, ensuring that the anchor bolts can be accurately and stably installed into the roadway, thereby enhancing the overall stability of the support structure.
[0074] Through the cooperation of mechanical structures such as the motor 510, the gear reduction box 511, and the lead screw 55, the automatic lifting of the anchor bolt is realized. When the anchor bolt near the upper side inside the box body 51 is taken, the control module 10 can control the motor 510 to work, drive the lead screw 55 to rotate, and then move the cross plate 58 and the placement rack 53 upward along the sliding column 59, raising the anchor bolt at the bottom of the box body 51 to a position convenient for workers to take, avoiding the trouble for workers to reach deep inside the box body 51 or perform complex operations to take the anchor bolt, and greatly improving the convenience of taking.
