Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mining equipment technology, and specifically relates to a multi-degree-of-freedom explosive conveying mechanical device. Background Technology

[0002] Natural caving, as an advanced and low-cost mining technique, suffers from a high proportion of large ore blocks in the ore accumulation trenches. These blocks easily accumulate in the trenches, causing blockages at mid-to-high levels, hindering mine safety management, production stability, and continuous, balanced production. Conventional secondary crushing measures are ineffective in addressing these blockages. Currently, vibratory blasting is used for mid-level blockages, requiring the manual installation of a chute and the use of a long blasting boom to deliver explosive charges to the designated location for blasting. However, this method carries significant safety risks, as ore slippage in the accumulation trenches can easily cause injuries or fatalities to workers. Utility Model Content
