Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of coal mining machine technology, and particularly relates to an arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and material cleaning device for coal mining machines and a coal mining machine. Background Technology
[0002] During underground coal mining operations, after the coal shearing machine's drum cuts the coal face, a large amount of coal and rock scatters on both sides of the scraper conveyor. The current operating method relies on workers manually shoveling the loose coal into the scraper conveyor for transfer using shovels in the support area. This method has several prominent drawbacks: Manual coal shoveling is a physically demanding task, requiring multiple workers to operate continuously at a single working face, resulting in high labor costs. Furthermore, the speed of manual coal shoveling is much lower than that of the drum coal discharge, leading to a large accumulation of loose coal and hindering the efficiency of the working face mining. Traditional coal mining machines only have native spray nozzles on the rocker arm housing, which can only reduce dust at the drum cutting point; a large amount of secondary coal dust is generated during manual coal shoveling and material loading, and the existing spray cannot cover the loading area, resulting in excessive coal dust concentration underground, which endangers the respiratory health of workers; Workers are vulnerable to injury from falling coal and rock due to prolonged close proximity to the exposed coal face; at the same time, workers are at risk of accidentally touching the equipment and being crushed or scratched while shoveling coal around the continuously operating scraper conveyor. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To at least partially solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and material cleaning device for coal mining machines and a coal mining machine.
[0004] The arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines of the present invention is fixedly installed on the rocker arm housing and lifting bracket of the coal mining machine. The arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines includes a cleaning component, a screw component, a first positioning pin, and a second positioning pin. One end of the cleaning component is fixed to the lifting bracket through the first positioning pin, and the other end of the cleaning component is fitted with a pad. The pad abuts against the rocker arm housing and is positioned by the second positioning pin. The screw component is tightly locked to the rocker arm housing. A water tank is provided inside the rocker arm housing. A water inlet hole communicating with the water tank is opened on the contact surface between the cleaning component and the water tank cover of the rocker arm housing. The main body of the cleaning component is an inwardly converging arc-shaped cleaning plate. Multiple sets of high-pressure nozzles are provided on the cleaning component, and the high-pressure nozzles are connected to the water inlet hole.
[0005] Furthermore, in the aforementioned arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines, retaining rings are provided in the assembly grooves of the first and second positioning pins, and the retaining rings are used to limit the axial movement of the positioning pins; the screw assembly is equipped with washers, and the cleaning assembly has countersunk holes at the positions corresponding to the screws.
[0006] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines, the high-pressure nozzles are divided into two groups. One group consists of side nozzles located on both sides of the cleaning component, with the side nozzles facing the coal wall side and the goaf side, respectively. The other group consists of end-face nozzles located on the short end face of the circular arc front end of the cleaning component, with the end-face nozzles facing the circular arc coal loading area.
[0007] Furthermore, in the aforementioned high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines, the cleaning component is a streamlined, inwardly converging arc-shaped structure.
[0008] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines, the water tank is connected to the original spray water supply pipeline of the coal mining machine, the water inlet is connected to the water tank to form a parallel water circuit, and an O-ring is provided at the water inlet between the cleaning component and the water tank cover plate of the rocker arm housing.
[0009] Furthermore, in the aforementioned circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and material cleaning device for coal mining machines, the first positioning pin and the second positioning pin limit the material cleaning component, the positioning pin bears the lateral shear force, and cooperates with the screw assembly to jointly bear the material impact load.
[0010] On the other hand, the present invention provides a coal mining machine, including a coal mining machine body and a circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for the coal mining machine, wherein the circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for the coal mining machine is assembled at the rocker arm of the coal mining machine.
[0011] The circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and material cleaning device for coal mining machines and the coal mining machine of the present invention have the following advantages and beneficial effects: This invention adopts a circular arc contour coal gathering structure, directly reusing the coal mining machine's own walking power. The coal and rock cut off by the drum are automatically gathered along the circular arc surface and fed into the scraper conveyor, completely replacing the manual coal shoveling process. It eliminates the risk of worker injuries from falling rocks and mechanical injuries from the scraper conveyor, reduces the number of personnel required for the working face, and significantly improves the efficiency of coal mining. The circular arc streamline structure can avoid the vertical impact of coal and rock on the right-angle plate surface, reduce the impact load on the equipment, reduce the wear of the cleaning plate, and extend the service life of the device. The entire spray system relies entirely on the existing water tank and high-pressure water supply pipeline of the coal mining machine, without the need for additional power components such as water pumps and pipelines, and does not alter the main structure of the coal mining machine; the multi-directional high-pressure nozzles can simultaneously cover the drum cutting area, the floating coal areas on both sides, and the coal loading and gathering area, forming a dual dust suppression system with the original spray of the rocker arm, effectively suppressing secondary coal dust at the loading point, reducing the concentration of coal dust underground, meeting the requirements of coal mine safety regulations and control, and protecting the health of workers; The first and second locating pins are used to achieve precise positioning of the material clearing plate assembly, and the assembly accuracy remains unchanged after repeated disassembly and assembly. The locating pins share the impact shear force of lateral materials, reducing the stress on the screws. The retaining ring anti-displacement structure prevents vibration from loosening. The overall disassembly and assembly process is simple, and maintenance and component replacement can be quickly completed on-site underground, shortening equipment downtime for maintenance and reducing production and operation costs. The assembly structure is simple, and the equipment is easy to operate at the factory and for underground installation, with controllable manufacturing costs. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0014] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0015] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines of the present invention is fixedly installed on the rocker arm housing 1 and the lifting bracket 2 of the coal mining machine. The arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines includes a cleaning component 3, a screw component 4, a first positioning pin 5 and a second positioning pin 6. One end of the cleaning component 3 is fixed to the lifting bracket 2 by the first positioning pin 5, and the other end of the cleaning component 3 is fitted with a pad 31. The pad 31 abuts against the rocker arm housing 1 and is positioned by the second positioning pin 6 and locked to the rocker arm housing 1 by the screw component 4. A water tank 11 is provided inside the rocker arm housing 1. A water inlet hole 32 communicating with the water tank 11 is opened on the contact surface between the cleaning component 3 and the water tank cover of the rocker arm housing 1. The main body of the cleaning component 3 is an inwardly converging arc-shaped cleaning plate. Multiple sets of high-pressure nozzles 33 are provided on the cleaning component 3. The high-pressure nozzles 33 are connected to the water inlet hole 32.
[0016] Furthermore, in the arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines of the present invention, retaining rings 7 are provided in the assembly grooves of the first positioning pin 5 and the second positioning pin 6. The retaining rings 7 are used to limit the axial movement of the positioning pins and prevent the fasteners from loosening due to the cutting vibration of the coal mining machine. The screw assembly 4 is equipped with washers 41, and the cleaning assembly 3 is provided with countersunk holes 34 at the positions corresponding to the screws. The screws are completely sunk into the countersunk holes 34 to prevent the screws from being worn or broken due to continuous friction from falling coal.
[0017] Furthermore, in the arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines of the present invention, the high-pressure nozzles 33 are divided into two groups. One group consists of side nozzles 331 located on both sides of the cleaning component 3, with the side nozzles 331 facing the coal wall side and the goaf side, respectively. The other group consists of end-face nozzles 332 located on the short end face of the arc front end of the cleaning component 3, with the end-face nozzles 332 facing the arc coal loading area.
[0018] Furthermore, in the arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and material cleaning device for coal mining machines of the present invention, the material cleaning component 3 is a streamlined, inwardly converging arc-shaped structure, thereby reusing its own walking power when the coal mining machine is moving. The coal and rock cut off by the drum automatically gather towards the center along the arc surface and slide directly into the scraper conveyor, completely replacing manual coal shoveling operations.
[0019] Furthermore, in the arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines of the present invention, the water tank 11 is connected to the original spray water supply pipeline of the coal mining machine, and the water inlet 32 is connected to the water tank 11 to form a parallel water circuit. An O-ring is provided at the water inlet 32 between the cleaning component 3 and the water tank cover plate of the rocker arm housing 1, so as to prevent leakage at the joint between the water inlet and the water tank cover plate. The entire spray water circuit reuses the coal mining machine's own high-pressure water supply system, and there is no need to add an additional water supply power source.
[0020] Furthermore, in the arc-shaped high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for coal mining machines of the present invention, the first positioning pin 5 and the second positioning pin 6 limit the cleaning component 3, the positioning pin bears the lateral shear force, and cooperates with the screw component 4 to jointly bear the material impact load, and the assembly accuracy remains stable after disassembly and assembly.
[0021] On the other hand, the present invention provides a coal mining machine, including a coal mining machine body and a circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for the coal mining machine, the circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and cleaning device for the coal mining machine being assembled at the rocker arm of the coal mining machine.
[0022] Specifically, during coal mining machine operation, the machine moves along the working face using its own walking mechanism, without requiring additional power to drive the cleaning device. The streamlined arc cleaning component 3, which converges inward, moves synchronously with the rocker arm. After the scattered coal and rock come into contact with the arc surface, they are drawn inward along the arc-shaped slope under the combined action of the walking thrust and their own gravity. The arc surface guides all the skewed and accumulated floating coal to the middle of the scraper conveyor, and the coal falls directly onto the scraper chain. The scraper is pulled in a cycle, transporting the coal to the machine head at the working face. The arc-shaped streamline avoids the vertical impact of coal blocks on the plate surface, resulting in a small impact load and a significant reduction in the wear rate of the cleaning component 3. The entire process eliminates the need for workers to manually scoop coal with shovels, achieving integrated continuous operation of cutting, cleaning, and loading. During this process, high-pressure water is supplied by the coal mining machine's spray cooling system and enters the water tank 11. The water is automatically diverted to simultaneously complete dust suppression at two locations. The first water flow from the water tank 11 supplies the original built-in nozzles of the rocker arm housing 1 for initial dust suppression of the primary dust generated by the drum cutting the coal wall. The second water flow supplies the cleaning component 3 for secondary dust suppression. High-pressure water is sprayed from the left and right side nozzles 331 of the cleaning component 3, spraying one side towards the coal wall and the other side towards the goaf, covering the scattered floating coal on both sides and suppressing the dust generated by the floating coal at the edges and corners. Water is continuously sprayed from the front short end nozzle 332, aiming at the rounded coal loading area, specifically suppressing the secondary dust generated during the coal gathering and sliding process. The primary spray + multi-directional high-pressure spray of the cleaning component 3 forms a double-layer dust barrier, covering the cutting point and loading point at the same time, completely solving the problem of excessive dust during the manual coal shoveling stage, without changing the original water channel structure of the coal mining machine.
[0023] In summary, compared with the prior art, the circular arc contour high-pressure dust removal and material cleaning device and the coal mining machine of the present invention have the following advantages and beneficial effects: The present invention adopts a circular arc contour coal gathering structure, directly reuses the coal mining machine's own walking power, and the coal and rock cut off by the drum are automatically gathered along the circular arc surface and fed into the scraper conveyor, completely replacing the manual coal shoveling process; it eliminates the risk of worker injury from falling rocks and mechanical injury from the scraper conveyor, reduces the number of personnel required for working face operations, greatly improves coal mining efficiency, and the circular arc streamline structure can avoid the vertical impact of coal and rock on the right-angle plate surface, reduce the impact load on the equipment, reduce the wear of the material cleaning plate, and extend the service life of the device; The entire spray system relies entirely on the existing water tank and high-pressure water supply pipeline of the coal mining machine, without the need for additional power components such as water pumps and pipelines, and does not alter the main structure of the coal mining machine; the multi-directional high-pressure nozzles can simultaneously cover the drum cutting area, the floating coal areas on both sides, and the coal loading and gathering area, forming a dual dust suppression system with the original spray of the rocker arm, effectively suppressing secondary coal dust at the loading point, reducing the concentration of coal dust underground, meeting the requirements of coal mine safety regulations and control, and protecting the health of workers; The first and second locating pins are used to achieve precise positioning of the material clearing plate assembly, and the assembly accuracy remains unchanged after repeated disassembly and assembly. The locating pins share the impact shear force of lateral materials, reducing the stress on the screws. The retaining ring anti-displacement structure prevents vibration from loosening. The overall disassembly and assembly process is simple, and maintenance and component replacement can be quickly completed on-site underground, shortening equipment downtime for maintenance and reducing production and operation costs. The assembly structure is simple, and the equipment is easy to operate at the factory and for underground installation, with controllable manufacturing costs.
