[0024] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the ventilation duct support for underground mine roadways of this utility model includes an arc-shaped support 1, a threaded rod 7, and a transverse truss 8. The transverse truss 8 is arranged directly above the arc-shaped support 1. An adjustment mechanism 10 is arranged on the outside of the transverse truss 8. The adjustment mechanism 10 adjusts the height of the transverse truss 8 and the corresponding ventilation duct according to the usage requirements, so as to facilitate the adjustment and control of the height of the ventilation duct. A positioning mechanism 5 is arranged on the outside of the arc-shaped support 1. The positioning mechanism 5 positions the outside of the ventilation duct. The ventilation duct and the arc-shaped support 1 can be separated and assembled according to the usage requirements. Threaded hangers 16 are symmetrically arranged at the top of the transverse truss 8.
[0026] In some embodiments, the positioning mechanism 5 includes an insert 2, a rubber pad 3, an arc-shaped support 4, a fastening hole 12, and an inner groove 14. The rubber pad 3 is fitted to the outer side of the arc-shaped support 4. Inserts 2 are welded to both sides of the arc-shaped support 4. The outer side of the inserts 2 is connected to the inner groove 14. The inner groove 14 is symmetrically opened on both sides of the arc-shaped bracket 1. Fastening holes 12 are opened through both sides of the arc-shaped bracket 1. The arc-shaped support 4 is located directly below the arc-shaped bracket 1. The arc-shaped support 4 is used to open the bottom end of the arc-shaped bracket 1, thereby facilitating the lifting and maintenance of the bottom motor part of the ventilation duct.
[0027] In some specific embodiments, the arc-shaped support plate 4 is connected to the inner slot 14 through the insert plates 2 on both sides. The insert plates 2 and the outer side of the arc-shaped bracket 1 are provided with fastening holes 12. The bottom end of the ventilation duct is supported by the arc-shaped support plate 4, which makes it easy to inspect or replace some parts without disassembling.
[0028] In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism 10 includes an inner threaded tube 6, a threaded rod 7, a transverse truss 8, a handle 9, an outer sleeve 11, a vertical guide rod 13, and a fastener 15. The inner end of the inner threaded tube 6 is connected to the threaded rod 7, the outer side of the threaded rod 7 is connected to the transverse truss 8, the top end of the threaded rod 7 is provided with a handle 9, the top end of the transverse truss 8 is symmetrically provided with an outer sleeve 11, and the inner end of the outer sleeve 11 is connected to the vertical guide rod 13.
[0029] It should be noted that the top of the vertical guide rod 13 is connected to the bottom of the horizontal truss 8, and the outer side of the outer sleeve 11 is connected to the fastener 15. The tail end of the fastener 15 is connected to the vertical guide rod 13. The arc-shaped bracket 1 is vertically raised using the inner threaded sleeve 6 and the threaded rod 7 to adjust and maintain the height of the arc-shaped bracket 1.
[0030] In this embodiment, the transverse truss 8 is connected to the outside of the inner sleeve 6 through a threaded rod 7 that passes through the top end, and the transverse truss 8 is connected to the top end of the mine tunnel through a threaded hanger 16 that is provided at the top end.
[0031] It should be noted that the threaded rod 7 is connected to the top bearing of the arc-shaped bracket 1 through the inner threaded sleeve 6 connected to the outside. The inner threaded sleeve 6 and the threaded rod 7 cooperate to adjust the height of the arc-shaped bracket 1, and to adjust and maintain the height of the ventilation duct.
[0032] In practical applications, this type of ventilation duct support for underground mine roadways is used through the following steps:
[0033] Step 1: The operator first drills a hole at the top of the mine roadway using an electric drill. Then, the threaded part at the top of the threaded rod 16 is used with an expansion tube to position the threaded rod 16. The bottom end of the threaded rod 16 is then installed at the top of the transverse truss 8 to complete the positioning of the transverse truss 8. The threaded rod 7 on the outside of the transverse truss 8 is then connected to the inner threaded sleeve 6, and the bottom end of the inner threaded sleeve 6 is connected to the top of the arc-shaped bracket 1 with a bearing.
[0034] Step 2: The operator holds the handle 9 and uses the handle 9 to rotate the threaded rod 7, causing the threaded rod 7 and the inner threaded sleeve 6 to rotate, so that the inner threaded sleeve 6 pushes the arc-shaped bracket 1 vertically downward. At the same time, the outer sleeve 11 set at the top of the arc-shaped bracket 1 and the vertical guide rod 13 are used for vertical guidance to prevent the arc-shaped bracket 1 from shaking during the lifting and lowering process. After the height of the arc-shaped bracket 1 is adjusted, the outer sleeve 11 and the vertical guide rod 13 are fastened through the fastener 15 to prevent the arc-shaped bracket 1 from loosening during installation.
[0035] Step 3: An anti-loosening nut is added inside the internal threaded sleeve 6. The gap between the screw pairs caused by vibration is offset by secondary tightening. Then, the inserts 2 on both sides of the arc-shaped support plate 4 are separated from the inner slot 14. Then, the ventilation duct is inserted into the inside of the arc-shaped bracket 1. The arc-shaped bracket 1 is connected by screws and flat iron pieces. A rubber pad 3 of appropriate width is fixed to the top of the arc-shaped support plate 4. The inserts 2 on both sides of the arc-shaped support plate 4 are connected to the inner slot 14.
[0036] Step 4: Insert the screw into the fastening hole 12 to position the insert 2 and the arc bracket 1. Use the rubber pad 3 to flexibly support the bottom of the ventilation duct. Then loosen the fastener 15 and rotate the handle 9 in the opposite direction. Use the handle 9 to drive the threaded rod 7 to rotate in the opposite direction. When the threaded rod 7 rotates, it engages with the threaded pair of the internal thread sleeve 6 to convert the rotational motion into linear lifting motion, thereby driving the arc bracket 1 and the ventilation duct to move vertically upward, so that the ventilation duct and the pipe are connected.
[0037] Therefore, the above-disclosed embodiments are merely illustrative in all respects and are not the only ones. All modifications within the scope of this utility model or its equivalents are included in this utility model.
