TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of ore pillar reinforcement, and particularly relates to a primary ore pillar ladder type reinforcement structure and an ore pillar reinforcement method. BACKGROUND
[0002] In underground mining operations, the primary ore pillar is a key component for bearing the load of overlying rock and maintaining the stability of the mining structure. Its mechanical response and failure mode directly affect mining safety and efficiency. The instability of the ore pillar is always a key bottleneck restricting safe and efficient mining.
[0003] Traditional ore pillar reinforcement techniques mainly rely on two types of means:
[0004] Equal-section grouting reinforcement uses equal-section concrete pouring bodies or sprayed concrete to wrap the ore pillar, thereby increasing the overall stiffness by increasing the cross-sectional size;
[0005] Single anchor rod support provides radial constraint by arranging anchor rod groups to inhibit the expansion of rock fissures.
[0006] Such techniques effectively reduce the risk of brittle failure in shallow mining by enhancing the strength of the ore pillar itself or applying external constraints, thereby providing a basic guarantee for the safe advancement of mining. However, as the mining depth increases and the mining stress becomes more complex, the traditional reinforcement methods have the following defects:
[0007] 1. The equal-section reinforcement body cannot adapt to the internal gradient stress distribution of the ore pillar, with stress concentration at the column foot and shear stress peak at the column body, leading to premature crushing in some areas;
[0008] 2. The interface slip effect between the rigid reinforcement body and the ore pillar rock mass due to the difference in elastic modulus aggravates the diagonal shear failure;
[0009] 3. High-altitude pouring from top to bottom requires the erection of a complex support system, which not only increases the risk of roof exposure but also causes the interface bond strength to decay due to disturbance during the curing period. SUMMARY
[0010] The purpose of the present application is to provide a primary ore pillar ladder type reinforcement structure and an ore pillar reinforcement method that solve the problem of gradient stress distribution without the need for a complex support system.
[0011] The primary ore pillar ladder type reinforcement structure provided by the present application includes a reinforcement body, a flexible buffer layer, and an anchoring member. The reinforcement body has a trapezoidal profile and is divided into multiple stress regions to adapt to the gradient stress distribution of the ore pillar. The flexible buffer layer is arranged between the reinforcement body and the primary ore pillar. The anchoring member penetrates the reinforcement body and the primary ore pillar to provide active restraint force.
[0012] In an embodiment of the above structure, the plurality of stress regions comprises a stable zone, a transition zone and a strong disturbance zone arranged from top to bottom, wherein the strong disturbance zone is located at the bottom of the pillar and bears the highest stress.

[0014] In an embodiment of the above structure, the anchoring member is a pre-stressed anchor rod, one end of which is anchored in the original pillar with an anchoring depth of not less than 1 m, and the other end is embedded in the interior of the reinforced body.
[0015] In an embodiment of the above structure, the original pillar is located on the floor surrounding rock, and the floor surrounding rock is provided with a floor groove, the bottom end of the reinforced body is embedded in the floor groove, and the groove depth is 3-5 cm to provide horizontal constraint.

[0021] S4, reinforcement of the stable zone: remove the partition plate, lay a flexible buffer layer in the top area, set the anchoring member, and cure the high-pressure grouting concrete through the reserved hole.
[0022] In steps S2, S3 and S4, the concrete comprises ordinary concrete and high-strength concrete; wherein high-strength concrete is used in the strong disturbance zone, and ordinary concrete is used in the stable zone and the transition zone.
[0023] In steps S2, S3 and S4, setting the anchoring member comprises vertically drilling anchor rod holes on the side wall of the original pillar, with a hole diameter of 42-50 mm and a spacing of 80-120 cm.
[0024] The curing time in step S2 is not less than 14 days, and the curing time in steps S3 and S4 is not less than 7 days; and the filling compactness is ensured by controlling the grouting flow through a high-pressure grouting pump in step S4.
[0025] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:
[0026] 1. The reinforcing structure is trapezoidal, which expands the upper and lower contact areas compared with the traditional cross-sectional structure; at the same time, it can disperse the concentrated load of the overlying strata, so that the stress is uniformly transmitted to the ore pillar and surrounding rock, significantly reducing the risk of oblique shear stress concentration, and enhancing the overall anti-sliding and anti-overturning stability; the pre-stressed anchor provides active restraint to inhibit the development of ore pillar deformation; the wedge-shaped bottom is embedded into the bottom plate groove to improve the horizontal restraint force and avoid the instability of the ore pillar-reinforcement system, thereby prolonging the service life;

[0034] The related technical solutions will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The described embodiments are only some of the embodiments, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of the present application.
[0035] In combination with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the original pillar ladder type reinforcing structure disclosed in the embodiment comprises a pouring mold 1, a concrete pouring body 2, a flexible buffer material 3 and a pre-stressed anchor rod 4.
[0036] The top end of the original pillar 5 supports the roof surrounding rock, and the bottom end stands on the floor surrounding rock.
[0037] The pouring mold 1 is a trapezoidal peripheral support frame, which is divided into three layers from top to bottom, corresponding to the stable area A, the transition area B and the strong disturbance area C.
[0038] The bottom end of the pouring mold 1 is embedded into the pre-set floor groove 6 of the floor surrounding rock, the groove depth is 3-5 cm, which provides horizontal constraint, enhances the anti-sliding and anti-overturning stability.
[0039] The pouring mold 1 is internally provided with steel bars 11, the steel bars are fixed by welding to form a framework, the steel bar junctions and the connection positions of the steel bars and the anchor rods form welding points, which ensure the integrity of the structure.
[0040] The pouring mold 1 is provided with pouring reserved holes 12 on the side surface, the hole diameter is not less than the outer diameter of the grouting pipe, which facilitates the high-pressure grouting in the last stage. The pouring mold is provided with a partition plate 13 for temporarily isolating each area, which facilitates the construction in stages.
[0041] The overall size of the pouring mold 1 is designed according to the size of the original pillar 5 and the overlying load, which ensures that the pouring mold 1 is closely combined with the roof surrounding rock and the floor surrounding rock.
[0042] The concrete pouring body 2 is formed by pouring through the pouring mold 1, which is also divided into three layers from top to bottom, i.e., the stable area A, the transition area B and the strong disturbance area C. The stress in the stable area A is relatively low, the stress in the transition area B is moderate, and the stress in the strong disturbance area C is the highest. The concrete pouring body is injected through the pouring reserved holes 12 to ensure the dense filling.
[0043] The stable area A and the transition area B are poured with ordinary concrete, and the cement sand ratio is 1:2; the strong disturbance area C is poured with high-strength concrete, and the cement mortar ratio is 1:1.2, and the water-binder ratio is 0.28-0.32.
[0044] The flexible buffer material 3 is a rubber-asphalt composite layer with a thickness of 2-5 cm, which is attached to the surface of the primary pillar 5. This material can adapt to the slight deformation of the surrounding rock, avoid stress concentration, and enhance the interface adhesion.
[0045] Anchor rod drill holes are vertically arranged on the side of the primary pillar 5, with a hole diameter of 42-50 mm and a spacing of 80-120 cm. One end of the pre-stressed anchor rod 4 is anchored in the primary pillar through the anchor rod drill hole, with an anchoring depth of not less than 1 meter. The other end is embedded in the transition zone B and the strongly disturbed zone C of the concrete pouring body 2, providing active restraint force.
[0046] The function of this reinforcement structure is to disperse the concentrated load of the overlying rock strata through the trapezoidal structure and zoning design, so that the stress is uniformly transmitted to the primary pillar and surrounding rock, significantly reducing the risk of inclined shear stress concentration. The enlarged end of the trapezoidal structure optimizes the axial compressive stress distribution; the zoned differential material precisely matches the regional stress level; the flexible composite buffer material absorbs slight deformation; the pre-stressed anchor rod provides active restraint; and the wedge effect of the bottom plate groove enhances the horizontal constraint. Ultimately, a pillar-pouring body-surrounding rock collaborative stress system is formed, which inhibits deformation development, improves anti-sliding, anti-overturning stability, and service life.

Anchor rod drill holes are vertically arranged on the side wall of the mold corresponding to the position, with a hole diameter of 42-50 mm and a spacing of 80-120 cm. One end of the pre-stressed anchor rod is anchored in the primary pillar through the drill hole, with a depth of not less than 1 meter.

[0053] S3, reinforcement construction of the transition zone B:
[0054] Remove the partition plate between the strong disturbance area C and the transition area B; the construction personnel stand on the solidified strong disturbance area C to work, install the steel reinforcement framework of the transition area and weld; lay the flexible buffer material on the surface of the primary ore pillar corresponding to the position of the transition area B, with a thickness of 2-5 cm; vertically open the anchor rod drilling hole corresponding to the position on the side wall of the mold, with a hole diameter of 42-50 mm and a spacing of 80-120 cm; then anchor one end of the pre-stressed anchor rod in the primary ore pillar through the drilling hole, with a depth of ≥1 m;
[0055] Pour with C25 ordinary concrete, pour directly from the top, with a cement mortar ratio of 1:2; maintain for ≥7 days;
[0056] S4, reinforcement construction of the stable area A:
