Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mine support technology, and in particular to a mine roadway support deformation monitoring device. Background Technology
[0002] Mine roadway support is a core facility for ensuring the safety of underground operations. As a key component of the support structure, the deformation of the roof support plate is directly related to the stability of the roadway and the safety of personnel and equipment. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the deformation status of the roof support plate in real time through professional monitoring devices and give timely warnings of potential collapse risks.
[0003] Existing mine roadway support deformation monitoring devices have significant limitations: Firstly, the contact monitoring components (such as the detection end that contacts the roof support) of most devices are in fixed positions and cannot be adapted to the actual curvature of the roof support. When there are differences in curvature in the inner wall of the roof support, the monitoring components are difficult to fit tightly against the roof support, which can easily lead to blind spots or data deviations. Secondly, traditional devices can only monitor deformation in a single direction (such as horizontal or vertical). If it is necessary to complete the all-round deformation monitoring of the roof support, multiple sets of devices need to be deployed, which increases equipment costs and installation complexity. Therefore, we propose a mine roadway support deformation monitoring device to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 The embodiments provided by this utility model are as follows:
[0026] The mine roadway support deformation monitoring device includes two U-shaped columns 1. Two connecting columns 2 are fixedly installed on the sides of the two U-shaped columns 1 that are close to each other. Mounting columns 7 are slidably installed on the two U-shaped columns 1. The mounting columns 7 are connected to the top of one of the U-shaped columns 1 through a gear drive mechanism.
[0027] like Figure 5 As shown, the gear drive mechanism includes a motor 20 fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting column 7. A gear 21 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the motor 20. Below the gear 21, a rack 23 is fixedly mounted on the top of the U-shaped column 1. The gear 21 meshes with the rack 23. When longitudinal inspection of the top plate 3 is required, the motor 20 is started. The output shaft of the motor 20 rotates, driving the gear 21 to rotate. The rotating gear 21 rolls on the rack 23, allowing the mounting column 7 to slide along the direction of the U-shaped column 1. The movement of the mounting column 7 drives the movement of multiple rectangular columns 13, multiple rectangular rods 18, and multiple ball bearings 19.
[0028] Multiple rectangular holes are evenly opened on the top of the mounting column 7 along the direction of the mounting column 7. A rectangular column 13 is slidably installed in each of the multiple rectangular holes. A light-transmitting tube 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of each of the multiple rectangular columns 13. A laser monitoring mechanism is installed at the bottom of the mounting column 7. The laser monitoring mechanism corresponds to the position of the multiple light-transmitting tubes 8.
[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, the laser monitoring mechanism includes two vertical plates 11 fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting column 7. A laser sensor 12 is fixedly installed on the side of one vertical plate 11 near the rectangular column 13, and a monitor 10 is fixedly installed on the side of the other vertical plate 11. The monitor is a programmable PLC controller. A laser receiving plate 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the monitor 10. The positions of the laser receiving plate 9, the laser sensor 12 and the multiple light-transmitting tubes 8 correspond to each other.
[0030] Both sides of the vertical plate 11 connected to the laser sensor 12 are fixedly installed with connecting plates 24. One side of the connecting plate 24 is equipped with an audible and visual alarm 25, and the other side of the connecting plate 24 is fixedly equipped with a power supply 22. When the lateral position of the roof guard plate 3 is detected, the laser sensor 12 emits a laser. The laser passes through multiple light-transmitting tubes 8 and is received by the laser receiving plate 9. When the top of the roof guard plate 3 deforms, it will squeeze the ball bearing 19, the rectangular rod 18 and the rectangular column 13 to move downward, thereby causing the light-transmitting tubes 8 to move downward, thus blocking the laser emitted by the laser sensor 12. At this time, the laser receiving plate 9 does not receive a signal, and the monitor 10 controls the audible and visual alarm 25 to sound an alarm.
[0031] Multiple rectangular columns 13 are equipped with ball bearings 19 via a telescopic mechanism, and the tops of the multiple ball bearings 19 are in contact with the inner top wall of the top plate 3.
[0032] Multiple support columns 4 are installed at the bottom of the roof support plate 3. The two bottom ends of the U-shaped column 1 are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of two of the support columns 4. The advantage of this arrangement is that when the upper part of the support column 4 deforms, the U-shaped column 1 will not deform accordingly. The mine roadway can be supported by multiple support columns 4 and the roof support plate 3.
[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, the telescopic mechanism includes a rectangular groove at the top of the rectangular column 13, a rectangular rod 18 slidably installed in the rectangular groove, a ball groove at the top of the rectangular rod 18, and a ball bearing 19 rotatably installed in the ball groove. A threaded hole is provided on one inner wall of the rectangular groove, and a bolt 17 is threadedly installed in the threaded hole. One end of the bolt 17 abuts against the side of the rectangular rod 18. By setting the bolt 17, the rectangular rod 18 can slide in the rectangular groove, thereby adjusting the position of the ball bearing 19 so that the top of the ball bearing 19 can contact the inner bottom wall of the top plate 3 with different curvatures. The telescopic mechanism also includes two guide rods 16, each of which is slidably sleeved with a guide block 15. The sides of the two guide blocks 15 that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the two sides of the rectangular column 13. Each guide block 15 is sleeved with a spring 14, and the two ends of the spring 14 are respectively fixedly installed on the sides of the guide block 15 and the mounting column 7 that are close to each other. When the ball bearing 19 encounters the collapsed position at the top of the top plate 3, the ball bearing 19 is squeezed, causing the rectangular rod 18 to move downward. The movement of the rectangular rod 18 drives the rectangular column 13 and the light-transmitting tube 8 to move, thereby causing the light-transmitting tube 8 to block the laser, which in turn causes the audible and visual alarm 25 to sound an alarm. At the same time, the movement of the rectangular column 13 drives the two guide blocks 15 to move, and the two springs 14 deform, thereby enabling the ball bearing 19 to return to its normal position.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, sliders 6 are fixedly installed at both ends of the mounting column 7, and grooves 5 are opened on the sides of the two U-shaped columns 1 that are close to each other. The two sliders 6 are slidably installed in the two grooves 5 respectively. The mounting column 7 can slide along the direction of the U-shaped column 1 by means of the sliders 6 and the grooves 5.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, the lengths of the multiple rectangular columns 13 decrease sequentially from the middle to both ends of the mounting column 7, and the bottom ends of the multiple rectangular columns 13 are located on the same horizontal plane. The advantage of this arrangement is that it allows the multiple light-transmitting tubes 8 to be located at the same horizontal position, while also allowing the multiple ball bearings 19 to conform to the inner top wall of the top plate 3.
[0036] Working principle:
[0037] The tops of multiple ball bearings 19 contact the inner top wall of the top plate 3. When the lateral position of the top plate 3 is detected, a laser is emitted by the laser sensor 12. The laser passes through multiple light-transmitting tubes 8 and is received by the laser receiving plate 9. When the top of the top plate 3 is deformed, it will squeeze the ball bearings 19, rectangular rods 18 and rectangular columns 13 to move downward, thereby causing the light-transmitting tubes 8 to move downward, thus blocking the laser emitted by the laser sensor 12. At this time, the laser receiving plate 9 cannot receive the signal, and the monitor 10 controls the audible and visual alarm 25 to sound an alarm.
[0038] When longitudinal inspection of the top plate 3 is required, the motor 20 is started. The output shaft of the motor 20 rotates, driving the gear 21 to rotate. The gear 21 rotates and rolls on the rack 23, allowing the mounting column 7 to slide along the direction of the U-shaped column 1. The movement of the mounting column 7 drives multiple rectangular columns 13, multiple rectangular rods 18, and multiple ball bearings 19 to move. When the ball bearing 19 encounters the collapsed position at the top of the top plate 3, the ball bearing 19 is squeezed, causing the rectangular rod 18 to move downward. The movement of the rectangular rod 18 drives the rectangular column 13 and the light-transmitting tube 8 to move, thereby causing the light-transmitting tube 8 to block the laser, which in turn causes the audible and visual alarm 25 to sound an alarm. At the same time, the movement of the rectangular column 13 drives the two guide blocks 15 to move, and the two springs 14 deform, allowing the ball bearing 19 to return to its normal position.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
