Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of roadway support, specifically a coal mine roadway support structure. Background Technology
[0002] A coal mine is an area where humans extract coal resources in coal-rich areas. They are generally divided into underground coal mines and open-pit coal mines. Open-pit coal mines are easier and less difficult to operate, while underground coal mines typically include roadways, shafts, and working faces.
[0003] To ensure the safety of tunnels, support structures are typically used to support them. Common support structures include U-shaped steel supports or I-beam supports. Because U-shaped steel supports have a certain curvature, they can adapt well to the tunnel. When arranging U-shaped steel, they are usually placed at equal intervals, which can provide stable support while saving materials. This results in the tunnels within the intervals having no support, so falling rocks directly hit the tunnel and can easily cause injury to workers. Utility Model Content
[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0005] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that the tunnels within the specified spacing lack supporting structures, causing falling gravel to directly impact the tunnels and potentially injure workers.
[0006] (II) Technical Solution
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows: a coal mine roadway support structure, including multiple U-shaped steel frames, each U-shaped steel frame having an arc-shaped fixing seat arranged on both sides, each arc-shaped fixing seat having multiple bolts threaded onto it, each U-shaped steel frame having a fixing block having a groove having a connecting rod slidably disposed within the groove, each connecting rod having a collecting mechanism for collecting gravel, each collecting mechanism including an extension rod on the bottom surface of the connecting rod, each extension rod having baffles hinged to both sides, and each extension rod having an adjusting mechanism for controlling the rotation of the baffles.
[0008] As an improvement, the adjustment mechanism includes a sleeve mounted on an extension rod, a pin movably inserted into the sleeve and a spring between the pin and the sleeve, and one end of the pin being hinged to the bottom surface of the baffle.
[0009] As an improvement, the connecting rod is provided with limiting blocks arranged on both sides, and the fixing block is provided with a limiting groove in the groove to cooperate with the limiting blocks.
[0010] As an improvement, the baffle is provided with limiting plates arranged on both sides.
[0011] As an improvement, the sleeve is provided with a limiting post that limits the position of the insertion post.
[0012] As an improvement, the baffle is located between two U-shaped steel frames.
[0013] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0014] The advantages of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:
[0015] By setting fixed blocks, grooves, and connecting rods, the support effect of the U-shaped steel frame can be further improved. By setting a rotatable baffle on the connecting rod, the gravel will fall onto the baffle, then slide from one end of the baffle to the other end before falling to the ground, reducing the kinetic energy of the gravel when it falls to the ground, thereby reducing the damage caused by falling gravel. By setting an adjustment mechanism, when the gravel is large, the adjustment mechanism will drive the baffle to rotate to offset some of the kinetic energy of the falling gravel, thereby increasing the load-bearing capacity of the baffle. At the same time, the gravel will fall on both sides of the U-shaped steel frame, so as not to hit the workers. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] As per the instructions Figures 1 to 3As shown, a coal mine roadway support structure includes multiple U-shaped steel frames 1. Each U-shaped steel frame 1 has arc-shaped fixing seats 2 arranged on both sides. Multiple bolts 3 are threaded onto each arc-shaped fixing seat 2. By setting the arc-shaped fixing seats 2 and bolts 3, the U-shaped steel frame 1 is fixed within the roadway. Each U-shaped steel frame 1 has a fixing block 4 with a groove 5. A connecting rod 6 is slidably mounted within the groove 5. Each connecting rod 6 has limiting blocks 14 arranged on both sides. Limiting bolts for fixing the connecting rod 6 are threaded onto the fixing blocks 4. A limiting groove is provided on the fixing block 4 within the groove 5 to cooperate with the limiting block 14. By setting the limiting blocks 14 and the limiting groove, the connecting rod 6 is limited.
[0023] As per the instructions Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the connecting rod 6 is provided with a collection mechanism 7 for collecting gravel. The collection mechanism 7 includes an extension rod 8 on the bottom surface of the connecting rod 6. Both sides of the extension rod 8 are hinged with baffles 9. The baffles 9 are located between two U-shaped steel frames 1. The baffles 9 are provided with limiting plates 15 arranged on both sides. The extension rod 8 is provided with an adjustment mechanism 10 for controlling the rotation of the baffles 9.
[0024] The adjustment mechanism 10 includes a sleeve 11 disposed on the extension rod 8, a plug 12 is movably inserted into the sleeve 11 and a spring 13 is provided between the plug 12 and the sleeve 11, one end of the plug 12 is hinged to the bottom surface of the baffle 9, and a limiting post 16 is provided in the sleeve 11 to limit the position of the plug 12.
[0025] In practical use, first, the U-shaped steel frame 1 is placed in the tunnel, and then the U-shaped steel frame 1 is fixed by the arc-shaped fixing seat 2 and bolts 3. Then, the subsequent U-shaped steel frames 1 are fixed in sequence. Next, the connecting rod 6 passes through the groove 5 on the fixing block 4, ensuring that the baffle 9 is located between the two U-shaped steel frames 1. Then, the connecting rod 6 is fixed by the limiting bolts. At this point, the installation is complete. When gravel falls, it will land on the baffle 9. By setting the limiting plate 15, it prevents the gravel from falling directly from the side of the baffle 9. 9 is angled, so the gravel will roll to one end of the baffle 9 and then fall to both sides of the U-shaped steel frame 1, thus preventing it from hitting pedestrians walking in the middle of the tunnel. When the gravel is heavy, it will press the baffle 9 to rotate. The rotation of the baffle 9 will drive the insertion post 12 to move and the spring 13 to compress, thereby reducing the kinetic energy of the gravel, reducing the falling speed of the gravel, and improving the bearing capacity of the baffle 9. By setting the limiting post 16, the rotation angle of the baffle 9 can be limited to prevent the baffle 9 from rotating 90° and threatening the workers in the tunnel.
