[0002] Mine goaf filling technology is a crucial tool for ensuring safe mining and reducing surface subsidence. During goaf filling operations, uniform mixing of slurry and filling admixtures is a key technical step in ensuring fill quality. Traditional filling processes often rely on pre-mixing on the ground, which can lead to segregation and stratification due to long-distance slurry transportation, severely impacting fill homogeneity.
[0003] Although the downhole mixing technology developed in recent years can reduce material separation, existing mixing devices generally have problems such as complex structure, large space occupation, and low mixing efficiency. Conventional mixing equipment is difficult to adapt to the narrow working environment underground, and there are difficulties in power supply and risks of pipeline blockage. In particular, when adding special functional liquids (such as foaming agents, enhancers, etc.), the existing spraying device has technical defects such as uneven liquid dispersion and insufficient contact with the slurry, resulting in low additive utilization. In addition, the installation and fixing method of downhole equipment is single, which makes it difficult to adapt to filling pipes of different specifications, affecting the adaptability of the project.
[0004] In response to the above problems, there is an urgent need to develop a filling admixture mixing device with a compact structure, efficient mixing and adaptability to complex underground working conditions, so as to achieve precise mixing of slurry and filling admixture at the discharge port, ensure the quality of the filling body and improve construction efficiency.

[0026] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention through specific examples. Those skilled in the art will readily understand the other advantages and benefits of the present invention from the disclosure herein. The present invention may also be implemented or applied through various other specific embodiments, and the details in this specification may be modified or altered based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
[0027] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in this embodiment are only used to schematically illustrate the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the illustrations only show components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component can be changed at will, and the component layout type may also be more complicated.
[0028] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present invention proposes a device for filling material in a mine goaf, comprising a feeding section pipeline 1, a stirring mechanism and a spraying mechanism. The stirring mechanism comprises at least two stirrers 2 arranged circumferentially along the feeding section pipeline 1, and the stirring shaft 21 of each stirrer 2 is inclined at an angle to the axial direction of the feeding section pipeline 1; the spraying mechanism comprises at least two sprayers 3 arranged circumferentially along the feeding section pipeline 1, and the spray head 31 of each spraying mechanism is arranged at the feed inlet of the feeding section pipeline 1.
[0029] It should be noted that when the goaf filling operation is carried out, the discharge section pipeline 1 can be set at one end of the filling pipeline for discharge, or it can be set as a section of the filling pipeline. The surface layer of the stirring shaft 21 of the stirrer 2 is provided with a corrosion-resistant / wear-resistant coating, the sprinkler 3 can be equipped with a swirl atomizing nozzle and a self-cleaning function, and the spray angle can be adjusted to an inclination angle (30°-60°). The stirring mechanism adopts a plurality of inclined stirrers 2 arranged circumferentially along the discharge section pipeline 1, and the stirring shaft 21 is arranged at an inclination angle to the axial direction of the discharge section pipeline 1, so that the present invention realizes three-stage mixing, namely, static diversion of the discharge section pipeline 1, dynamic stirring of the stirring shaft 21 and turbulent homogenization formed by multiple inclined stirrers 2, so as to realize uniform mixing of the slurry, and has the advantages of high mixing efficiency, strong adaptability, anti-blocking and energy saving. At the same time, the present invention is provided with a spray head 31 at the feed port of the discharge section pipe 1, and additives are added to the slurry so that the additives are evenly mixed into the slurry, and the required slurry is obtained at the discharge port of the discharge section pipe 1, thereby achieving precise mixing of the filled slurry and the filled additives at the discharge port, ensuring the quality of the filling body while improving construction efficiency.
[0030] In one embodiment of the present invention, each agitator 2 is a spiral agitator, and one end of the agitator shaft 21 of the agitator 2 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 4, and the other end extends toward the central axis of the lower feed pipe 1. Each motor 4 is mounted on the outer wall of the lower feed pipe 1, and each agitator shaft 21 extends through the side wall of the lower feed pipe 1 via a sealed bearing.
[0031] It is understood that each agitator 2 adopts a spiral structure, with one end of the agitator shaft 21 connected to the output shaft of the motor 4 and the other end extending to point to the central axis of the discharge section pipe 1. This design uses the axial thrust and radial shear force generated by the spiral blades to synergize, so that the slurry forms three-dimensional turbulence during the discharge process, and the mixing uniformity is improved compared to traditional stirring methods. At the same time, the spiral structure can effectively avoid material accumulation, and combined with the direct drive mode of the motor 4, the transmission efficiency is high and the energy consumption is reduced by about. In particular, the agitator shaft 21 pointing to the central axis of the discharge section pipe 1 can form a forced intersection area at the axial position of the slurry, ensuring that the core contact between the additive and the slurry is achieved, and the operating stability is significantly better than that of the eccentric stirring arrangement.
[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, each sprayer 3 includes a spray pipe 32 and a spray head 31. One end of the spray pipe 32 is connected to the feed pipe 33, and the other end of the spray pipe 32 extends toward the central axis of the lower feed pipe 1. Each spray pipe 32 penetrates the side wall of the lower feed pipe 1 and is sealed to the side wall of the lower feed pipe 1 via a pipe sleeve.
[0033] It can be understood that the other end of the spray pipe 32 extends to the central axis of the lower material section pipeline 1, that is, the central injection layout, so that the additive atomized particles are radially and evenly dispersed, the contact area with the slurry is increased, and the coefficient of variation of the mixing uniformity is reduced.
[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, a support frame 5 is further included. The support frame 5 is disposed within the feed section pipeline 1, and the sealed bearing and the pipe sleeve are mounted on the support frame 5. The support frame 5 includes at least two support rings 51 and two parallel support vertical rods 52. Each support ring 51 is coaxially disposed within the feed section pipeline 1. The support vertical rods 52 connect the support rings 51 and are arranged axially parallel to the feed section pipeline 1.
[0035] It can be understood that the support frame 5 structure not only provides a mounting structure for the sealing bearing and the pipe sleeve, but also provides support to the discharge section pipeline 1 in the axial and axial directions, thereby reducing pressure loss and maintaining a higher flow rate of the slurry.
[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, the support frame 5 further includes a pair of horizontally intersecting support crossbars 53, each of which is fixedly connected to a corresponding support vertical bar 52. The extended end of each stirring shaft 21 is a spherical end, and the support crossbar 53 is provided with a matching spherical groove.
[0037] It can be understood that the support frame 5 forms a three-dimensional truss structure by adding horizontal cross-supporting cross bars 53, which together with the supporting vertical bars 52 constitute a high-rigidity support system, further ensuring the stability of the support frame 5 structure and the effectiveness of supporting the unloading section pipeline 1.
[0038] Specifically, a pair of horizontally cross-arranged support crossbars 53 can increase the overall bending stiffness of the support frame 5 by about 80%, and the deformation under working pressure does not exceed 0.05mm, ensuring operational stability under high-speed stirring conditions; and the spherical end of the stirring shaft 2 fits in the spherical groove of the support crossbar 53, forming a self-aligning joint structure that can automatically compensate for ±2° axis deflection, so that the bearing load is evenly distributed and the service life is extended. Because the ball-groove design forms a mechanical limit protection, when the stirring torque exceeds the rated value, the slip protection is automatically triggered, effectively preventing overload damage to the motor 4. Actual measured data shows that this structure can reduce the vibration value of the equipment and reduce the rate of unexpected downtime. The spherical contact surface can be coated with hard alloy, which can maintain long-term maintenance-free operation in a slurry environment containing abrasive particles.
[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the stirring mechanism includes four stirrers 2 evenly arranged along the circumference of the discharge section pipeline 1 , and every two stirrers 2 are symmetrically arranged at the same axial position of the discharge section pipeline 1 .
[0040] It should be noted that the multi-layer arrangement of agitators 2, with two agitators 2 symmetrically positioned within the same layer, not only improves the mixing effect but also achieves a compact structure. The four agitators 2 form a "bisymmetrical force field," generating superimposed vortices in the cross-section of the discharge pipe 1, significantly improving mixing efficiency compared to a single-layer agitator. In a multi-layer arrangement, adjacent agitators can be staggered at 45°, forming a three-dimensional mixing network. The coefficient of variation of mixing uniformity can be controlled within 2.8%. The symmetrical structure completely offsets radial unbalanced forces, significantly reducing equipment vibration. This compact design not only maintains the pipe cross-sectional flow rate but also increases the mixing power density.
[0041] In summary, the present invention's mine goaf filling device not only solves the technical challenges of conventional filling devices, such as uneven mixing, clogging, and difficult maintenance, but also achieves comprehensive improvements in filling quality, operational efficiency, and economic benefits through system optimization. It is particularly suitable for demanding conditions such as high-concentration filling and tailings paste filling in deep mines, providing a reliable technical solution for modern mine filling operations.
