Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of coal bunker unblocking, and particularly relates to a collaborative bunker unblocking robot for double-type blockage of a coal bunker and a working method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a core equipment for material storage and transportation, the coal bunker has long been facing the problem of blockage caused by coal quality characteristics and environmental factors. When the content of small-particle coal or coal powder in the coal mine reaches a certain proportion, the movement law of the coal in the coal bunker will change into fine particle flow. In the movement process of this type of movement, the large-volume coal blocks in the flowing material move passively, increasing the material movement resistance. This resistance specifically manifests as internal friction. When the internal friction reaches a certain value, the material will stop moving, causing arch blockage. When the water content in the coal mine reaches a certain degree, the viscosity of the coal will significantly increase. In the process of coal falling from the silo, the coal that is relatively fine and has a relatively high water content will adhere to the inner wall of the coal bunker. The higher the water content, the more coal adheres, and the higher the probability of adhesion. With the increase of the use time of the coal bunker, the coal adhering to the wall of the coal bunker gradually increases, directly reducing the size of the conical coal drop opening relative to the inner diameter of the coal bunker, forming a rat-hole type blockage.

[0003] The existing unblocking technologies such as manual unblocking, coal bunker rotation, wall-shaking type bunker unblocking machine, and bin double-placed vibrator can partially alleviate the problem, but generally have limitations. For example, manual operation is low in efficiency and dangerous, the coal bunker rotation device is severely limited by the type of coal bunker, the wall-shaking type bunker unblocking machine is limited by the size of the working space, and the bin double-placed vibrator is limited by the fixed action range, is inconvenient to install, and cannot cope with the random changes of the blockage position. SUMMARY

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a collaborative bunker unblocking robot for double-type blockage of a coal bunker and a working method thereof, which has high unblocking efficiency and high applicability.

[0014] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for operating a collaborative cleaning robot for dual-type blockages in a coal bunker, based on any one of the aforementioned collaborative cleaning robots for dual-type blockages in a coal bunker, comprising the following steps: S1. Descend the cleaning robot to the designated depth using a cable; S2. The first support hydraulic cylinder drives the horizontal hydraulic cylinder to rotate to a horizontal position. The horizontal hydraulic cylinder drives the fixed part to move in the horizontal direction until the fixed part abuts against the inner wall of the coal bunker, thus fixing the cleaning robot in the center of the coal bunker. S3. The drive unit moves the connecting mechanism to the working depth and determines the type of coal bunker blockage. S4.

The second support hydraulic cylinder pushes the support rod to rotate, and the push hydraulic cylinder adjusts the angle of the push rod to push the unblocking component into the drill hole formed by the rat hole drilling mechanism to clear the blockage in the coal bunker. S5. After repeating step S4 multiple times, start the residual cleaning mechanism. The cleaning hydraulic cylinder drives the telescopic frame to move towards the inner wall of the coal bunker. The telescopic frame drives the milling cutter to move towards the inner wall of the coal bunker. This assists in cleaning when the rotary tunneling mechanism is expanding the rat hole, and thoroughly cleans the residual blockages on the inner wall of the coal bunker after the unblocking mechanism has completed the unblocking operation.

[0015] The technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: This invention provides a collaborative cleaning robot and its working method for dual-type blockages in coal bunkers.

By incorporating a rat hole drilling mechanism and a blockage clearing mechanism at the top of the connecting mechanism, it achieves drilling into the inner wall of the rat holes in the coal bunker and clearing the blockages within the drilled holes. This cleaning robot integrates the rat hole drilling mechanism, the blockage clearing mechanism, and the rotating tunneling mechanism onto the connecting mechanism, achieving collaborative treatment of both arched and rat hole blockages. This reduces the labor intensity of construction workers, improves cleaning efficiency, and employs a positioning mechanism with multi-point support to achieve stable positioning of the cleaning robot in the center of the coal bunker, preventing construction workers from entering high-risk environments and reducing the probability of accidents.
