THE SHEARER
Shearer
Longwall equipment consists of three major components: the hydraulically powered roof support, the chain conveyor, and the coal-cutting machine.
The two different types of coal-cutting equipment used in coal mines are shearers and plows.
Plows are used in low seams, 42in. or less. The unit consists of steel construction equipped with carbon-tipped bits. This passive steel unit is engaged to a guiding system on the face conveyor. An endless round link chain powered by synchronized electric drives on each end of the face conveyor pulls the plow body at speeds between 120 and 420 ft/min along the face.
For the cutting process the plow has to be forced against the coal face. This is done by hydraulic cylinder attached to the gob side of the face conveyor and to the base of the supports, or by a separate hydraulic prop. Forces of between 1and 3 tons are applied per cylinder.
A plow drive is attached to each drive frame of the face conveyor. Only 30% to 60% of the drive power supplied to the plow is used for cutting and loading of coal; the remainder is lost in friction. This means that the power loss is considerably higher than that of a shearer, which uses 75% to 85% of its power for the removal of the coal. As a result, rather large drives are required at the face ends.
Although there are many models, the shearer has several common basic components. A double-ended ranging-drum shearer (Fig. 8. 1), for example, consists of four major components: electric motors, gearheads, haulage unit (power pack), and cutting drums.
The electric motor ranging from 300 to 1000 horsepower (223~750kW) is the power source for the shearer. It provides power to run the hydraulic pumps in the haulage unit and the gearheads for the cutting drum. The large-capacity shearers are generally equipped with two electric motors: one for the haulage unit and one gearhead and the other for the other gearhead and other ancillary equipment. The motors can be remotely controlled.
There are two gearheads, one on the left-hand the other on the right-hand side of the shearer. Each gearherad consists of a gearhead gearbox and a ranging arm.
The cutting drum is laced with spiral vanes on with spiral vanes on which the cutting bits are mounted. Its diameter ranges from 34 to 72 in. (0.86~1.83 m) with rotational speeds from 30 to 105 rpm. The trends are toward fewer but larger bits and slower drum speed for better cutting efficiency and less coal dust production. The drums are also equipped with power cowls to increase the coal loading efficiency. The power cowl is usually located behind the cutting drum. For that reason, it can be rotated a full 180o.
The electric motor, haulage unit, and gearhead boxes combine to form the shearer’s body which is mounted on the underframe. The underframe has four sliding shoes. The face-side shoes are fitted and ride on the face-side top guide of the face conveyor pan, and the other two gob-side sliding shoes are fitted on a guide tube to prevent derailment. The tramming aped of the shearer ranges from 19 to 46 ft/min (5.8~14.0 m/min).
In addition, the shearer is equipped with auxiliary hydraulic pumps and control valves for operating the ranging arms and power cowls, water spraying devices, cable, chain anchorage and tensioners, and so on
In selecting the shearer, mining height should first be considered; that is, the diameter of the cutting drum, body height, length of the ranging arm, and swing angle must be properly selected. For the double-ended ranging-drum shearer, the maximum mining height cannot exceed twice the diameter of the cutting drum. The mining height can be determined by (Fig.8.3)
H=Hb-B/2+Lsinα+D/2
Where H=seam thickness or mining height
Hb=shearer’s body height
B=body depth
L=length of the ranging arm
α=the angle between the ranging arm and the horizontal line when the ranging arm is raised to its maximum height
D=diameter of the cutting drum
For example, for the Eichhoff EDW-170 L double ranging-drum shearer, Hb=4.3 ft, L=3.90 ft, α=52°，and D=5.3 ft. Its maximum cutting height is H=9.2 ft..
Types of modern shearers
Since its first appearance in 1954,the shearer has undergone continuous changes both in capability and structure. It is now the major cutting machine in longwall coal faces. There are two types of shearers, single-and double-drum. In the earlier models, the drum in the single-drum shearer is mounted on the shearer’s body and cannot be adjusted for height. Therefore it is not suitable for areas where there are constant changes in seam thickness and floor undulation. Thus the single-ended fixed-drum shearer is used mostly for thin seams.
Figure 6.10 shows a single-drum shearer with a ranging arm. The cutting drum is mounted at the very end of the ranging arm. The ranging arm can be raised up and down by hydraulic control to accommodate the changing seam thickness and floor undulation. But when the seam exceeds a certain thickness, the single-drum shearer cannot cut the entire seam height in one cut and a return cutting trip is necessary to complete a full web cut. Furthermore, since the drum is located on the headentry side, it generally requires a niche in the tailentry side. A niche is a precut face end, one web deep and a shearer’s length long. With a niche at the face end the shearer can turn around.
Nowadays, the double ranging-drum shearers are used predominantly. The shearer cuts the whole seam height in one trip. The two drums can be positioned to any required height (within the designed range) during cutting and lowered well below the floor level. The arrangement of the drums enables the whole seam to be cut in either direction of travel, thereby ensuring rapid face advance and shortening roof exposure time. There are various types of double ranging-drum shearers. Based on the location of the drums, there are two types: one with one drum mounted on each side of the shearer’s body and the other with both drums mounted on one side of the machine. The former type is the most widely used. Its advantage is that with one drum on each side of the shearer, it can sump in either direction. During the cutting trip, the leading drum cuts the upper 70% of the seam height while the rear drum cuts the lower 30% and cleans up the broken coal on the floor. The two drums are approximately 23~33 ft (7~10m) apart. When the shearer is traveling in the opposite direction to that of the face conveyor, the coal cut by the leading drum has to pass under the shearer’s body, which increases the moving resistance of the shearer and the face conveyor and could cause a “crowding” condition. If the broken coal is too large, it may block the shearer and stop the operation. In general, when the shearer and the face conveyor are traveling in the opposite directions, approximately 70% of the coal taken by the leading drum will pass under the shearer. But when they are traveling in the same direction, the coal taken down by the rear drum together with the float coal from the floor constitute the approximately 30% of the coal that has to pass under the shearer. The former case consumes 25% more power than the latter. As compared to the single-ended shearer, the underframe of the double-ended shearer is higher, thereby ensuring a sufficient cross section for coal passage.
Based on the method of adjusting the height of the cutting drum, there are also two types of shearers: ranging-arm shearer and gearhead shearer. The former one is commonly used, whereas the latter one is a recent development. The advantage of the gearhead shearer is that the haulage unit is located at the center of the shearer’s body and mounted on the underframe. On both sides of the haulage unit, there is a gearhead. Each gearhead contains an electric motor and a speed-reduction unit. The gearhead is raised and lowered by an adjustable hydraulic ram. The adjustable range of cutting height is large. It can reach up to 4.6 ft(1.4m).
Based on the mounting relation between the shearer and the face conveyor, there are also two types: the regular type which rides on the conveyor and the in-web shearer which moves on the floor in front of the conveyor. The in-web shearer is used mainly for the thin seams. As it moves along the face, the leading drum cuts the coal, making a sufficient space for the passage of the passage of the shearer’s body.
Haulage of the shearer
There are two types of shearer haulage: chain and chainless. These are discussed separately in the following paragraphs.
(1)Chain haulage
The haulage chain is a round-link chain which extends along the whole face width and is fixed on both ends at the head and tail drives of the face chain conveyor, respectively. The chain also passes through the driving and deflecting (or guiding) sprockets in the haulage unit of the shearer. As the driving sprocket rotates, its teeth trap to the matching chain links and move along the nonmoving haulage chain, thereby pulling the shearer along. When the driving sprocket rotates counterclockwise, the shearer moves to the right. Conversely, when the sprocket rotates clockwise, the shearer moves to the left. That part of the chain in front of the moving shearer is generally tight or on the tensioned side whereas the other side, behind the moving shearer, is slack or on the slack side.
The total resistance encountered by a cutting shearer consists mainly of the cutting resistance of the drum, coal loading resistance, and the frictional resistance between the conveyor and the shearer. The summation of the three types of resistance is the total haulage resistance of the shearer. The haulage unit must provide sufficient haulage power to overcome the total haulage resistance so that the shearer can move along smoothly. In Fig. 6.15 the tensile force in the tensioned side is P2 and that in the slack side is P1. Since the haulage force(P2) is the summation of P1 and P, if the chain on the slack side is completely slack, P1=0, then the tensile force in the tensioned side will be the required haulage force, P2=P. Under such conditions, although the chain is subjected to relatively small tension, the driving sprocket can not pass out the chain smoothly and may easily cause chain “stuck” or sudden tensioning of the chain. Thus in actual operation, the slack side normally maintains a small tension, i. e. , P2=P1+P. Only when the tensile force in the tensioned side is sufficient to overcome the total haulage resistance and the tensile force in the slack side, the shearer will be able to move.
When the shearer starts cutting from one end of the coal face, the haulage chain is relatively slack. As the shearer moves along, the chain is gradually tightened. When the shearer is near the other end of the coal face, the tensile force in the haulage chain is greatest. At this time the chain is most easily broken. In order that the tensile force on the tensioned side is not too high and that there is a sufficient tensile force on the slack side, most shearers are equipped with tension takeup systems. The tension takeup system is mounted at one end or both ends of the face conveyor depending on whether unidirectional or bidirectional cutting is employed. The haulage chain is connected to the tension takeup system. There are many types of tension takeup systems. But the basic principles are about the same.
The problems associated with chain haulage are chain sticking, chain breakage, and chain link tangling. They are due mainly to the fact that the haulage chain is lengthened and becomes loose after some periods of usage.
(2)Chainless haulage
In response to all the disadvantages associated with the chain haulage, the chainless haulage was developed. According to the haulage principles, the chainless haulage can be divided into three types: drive chain-rackatrack, drive wheel-rackatrack, and ram propulsion. The wheel-rackatrack haulage is the most popular type.
Figure 6.16 is a double-ended ranging-drum shearer equipped with the wheel-rackatracd haulage system. The haulage driving unit is similar to the conventional ones. The driving sprocket matches an idler sprocket, which in turn rides on the rail track made of steel peg rods. Thus, the driving system of power transmission is highly efficient. The rack is made of sections that have the same length as the conveyor pan, but they are installed in such a way that the center of each section is directly above the connection line between two adjacent pans. This will ensure maximum vertical and horizontal flexibility of the pans and keep the pitch deviation in the gap between two rack sections within admissible limits. Two methods are used to connect the line pans with the rack sections: one is to tie the rack sections to the sides of the line pans with screws and the other is to set the rack section on the sliding channel. Only the rack sections on both ends of the conveyor are fixed, so that a limited amount of flexibility in the conveyor direction is permitted. In Fig. 6.17 (b), the hook shape anchor on the rack section locks and slides on the guide tube of the line pans. This method is good for converting chain haulage to chainless haulage.
Figure 6.18 is another model of the wheel-rackatrack chainless haulage system. The driving sprocket is engaged directly to a special sprocket called Rollrack which has five hardened steel rollers spaced equally around the circumference. As the special sprocket or Rollrack rotates, the steel rollers engage on the teeth track of the rack and pull the shearer. Thus it is also called Roller-Teeth Rack chainless haulage.

采煤機
滾筒式采煤機
長壁工作面的設備包含三個主要部分：液壓支架，刮板運輸機和破碎機。
被用于煤礦的兩種不同類型的割煤設備是：滾筒式采煤機和刨煤機。
刨煤機被用于低煤層，42英寸或者更少。刨煤機由裝配滲碳刀尖的齒輪組成。這些鈍化的齒輪單元與工作面輸送機上的控制系統(tǒng)相連。由位于工作面輸送機兩端的同步電機驅動無級圓環(huán)鏈牽引刨煤機以每分鐘120至420英尺的速度沿工作面移動。
在切割進程，刨煤機必須強迫對抗煤層表面。動力由裝在工作面運輸機底部的液壓油缸提供，每一個油缸提供1至3噸的動力。
工作中的刨煤機 并不是把全部的動力用來刨煤 ，只有30%到60%動力被用來切割和裝運煤；剩余部分在摩擦中消耗。這就意味著動力損耗要比滾筒式采煤機高。滾筒式采煤機動力的75%到85%用于割煤的。結果，要想獲得大功率采煤效果就不得在工作面機尾提供相當大的動力。
雖然有許多部件，但是滾筒式采煤機有幾種基本部分。舉例來說，一臺雙滾筒可調(diào)高搖臂采煤機（圖8.1），由四個主要部分組成：電動馬達，機頭，牽引部分（電動機）和截割部。
圖8.1采煤機的組成
電動機為采煤機提供300到1000馬力的動力源，并且為牽引部的運轉的液壓泵提供動力和機頭服務于截割滾筒。大功率采煤機通常裝備兩臺電動機：一臺用于牽引部和一個機頭，另一臺用于另外一個機頭和其它輔助裝備，這些電動機是可以遠距離操縱的。
這兩個機頭一個在采煤機的左邊，一個在采煤機的右邊，每個機頭都是由齒輪箱和搖臂組成。
截割滾筒的截齒安裝的是螺旋葉片，它的直徑范圍從34到72英寸（0.86～1.83m），回轉速度從30到105rpm。它的發(fā)展趨勢朝著少數(shù)但個大的且滾筒速度較低的截割效率比較好，并且可以減少粉塵的產(chǎn)生。滾筒之所以加擋煤板是為了增加煤的裝載效率，擋煤板通常安裝在截割滾筒的后面，由于這個原因，它可以旋轉180o。
電動機、牽引部和機頭箱組合成采煤機的機身安裝在底托架上，底托架有四個滑履，用在工作面的滑履是固定的，它騎在刮板輸送機溜槽工作面的頂?shù)儡壣?，另外兩個采空區(qū)滑履與道管配合是為避免出軌。采煤機的輸送速度范圍在19～46ft/min（5.8～14.0m/min）。
此外，采煤機的裝備還有輔助液壓泵、可操作搖臂的控制閥、擋煤板、噴水裝置、電纜、鏈條、錨固和張緊裝置等等。
在選擇采煤機時，采煤高度應是首先被考慮的因素；那是因為，滾筒直徑，主體高度，搖臂長度，和搖擺角度都必須選擇適當。對于雙滾筒可調(diào)高搖臂采煤機，最大的采煤高度不能超過滾筒直徑的兩倍。采煤高度可以通過（圖8.3）來決定
H=Hb-B/2+Lsinα+D/2
其中 H=煤層厚度或者采煤高度
Hb=采煤機主體高度
B=主體深度
L=搖臂長度
α=當搖臂升高到它的最大高度時搖臂和水平線之間的角度
D=滾筒直徑
圖8.3采煤機采高
舉例來說，對于 EDW-170L雙滾筒可調(diào)高搖臂采煤機，Hb=4.3英尺, L=3.90英尺, α=52°，D=5.3英尺。它的最大截割高度為H=9.2英尺。
現(xiàn)代采煤機的種類
采煤機在1954年誕生的，在性能和構造上經(jīng)歷了連續(xù)的變化。它主要應用在走向長壁采煤工作面上。采煤機有兩種類型，包括單滾筒采煤機和雙滾筒采煤機。在早期使用的采煤機中，單滾筒采煤機的滾筒是在采煤機的軀干上，并且不能調(diào)高，所以不適合用于煤層厚度和水平波動大的區(qū)域，因此單滾筒采煤機主要適用于薄煤層。
圖6.10中顯示單滾筒采煤機的搖臂范圍，截割滾筒處于搖臂的最末端，搖臂通過液壓控制能夠升起和下降，可用在煤層厚度和水平波動大的區(qū)域。但是當煤層超過某一厚度時，單滾筒采煤機就不能一次切割全部的厚度，需要回來再切一次才能完成全部工作。此外，因為滾筒位于采煤機側面，它通常要求放在采煤機一適當?shù)膫让?，這一適當?shù)奈恢迷谇懈罟ぷ髅娴哪┒耍泻线m的深度和長度，采煤機可以在這個位置掉轉方向。
現(xiàn)今，雙滾筒采煤機使用很廣泛，它可以切割整個煤層厚度。在切割和下降到最低位置期間，兩個滾筒的位置可以按照規(guī)定的要求調(diào)整高度（設計范圍之內(nèi)）。滾筒的布置能夠切割整個煤層厚度和移動方向，從而保護工作面快速推進和縮短頂板暴露時間。雙滾筒采煤機有各種型式，根據(jù)滾筒的位置可分為兩種類型：一種是兩個滾筒在采煤機的兩側，另一種是同時都在采煤機的一側。前一類型使用很廣泛，它的優(yōu)點是在滾筒的兩側割煤，可以在任一方向上。在切割時，上面的滾筒切煤層厚度的70％，下面的滾筒切煤層厚度的30％和清理頂板的碎煤。兩滾筒距離大約有23～33ft(7~10m)，當采煤機平移反向到工作面運輸機時，滾筒截煤不得不在采煤機的下面，是采煤機增加移動的阻力和工作面輸送機和狀態(tài)條件。如果掉落的煤也是巨大的，它可以阻塞采煤機讓采煤機停止工作。通常采煤機和運輸機移動是相向的，大約采煤機的滾筒可傳遞給輸送機70％的煤，但是當它們平移方向相同時，由滾筒切下的煤30％傳遞不到輸送機上，前者比后者消耗25％的功率。同時比較，單滾筒采煤機比雙滾筒采煤機底架較高，從而確保了充分的煤的橫截面通道。
采煤機根據(jù)切割滾筒的調(diào)整高度還可分為兩種類型：搖臂采煤機和機頭采煤機，前一種是普遍使用的，而后者是近期發(fā)展出來的，機頭采煤機是牽引部位于采煤機機身的中心和底架的上面。在牽引部的兩側各有一個機頭，每個機頭都包含一個電動機和一變速裝置。機頭由一可調(diào)整液壓控制它的上升和下降。它的割煤高度的調(diào)節(jié)范圍很大，可以擴展到4.6ft(1.4m)。
根據(jù)采煤機和輸送機的安裝位置分為兩種類型：標準的是騎在輸送機上面，另一個非標準的是安裝在輸送機前面的，非標準采煤機主要使用在薄煤層中，當它在工作面向前移動時，引導滾筒割煤，讓出足夠空間用于采煤機的機身通過。
牽引采煤機
牽引采煤機分為兩種類型：有鏈牽引和無鏈牽引，下面就對這種類型進行論述。
(1)鏈牽引
牽引鏈是一種整體齒寬伸展向前的圓環(huán)鏈，是決定鏈式牽引輸送機工作面的兩端的操作。采煤機牽引部的鏈可以推動和轉向（或定向）鏈輪。當傳動鏈輪旋轉時，通過牽引鏈與主動鏈輪相互嚙合向前移動，從而驅動采煤機向前移動。當傳動鏈輪逆時針旋轉時，采煤機向右移動，反之，當鏈輪順時針方向旋轉時，采煤機向左移動。采煤機移動時，前面部分的鏈通常是拉緊或這一側張緊，在采煤機的后面則是松弛或一側松弛。
總的阻力等于采煤機滾筒切削力、煤的負載阻力、運輸機與采煤機之間的摩擦阻力的總和，這三種阻力之和就是采煤機的牽引力。牽引部必須提供足夠的牽引功率以克服總牽引阻力，以便采煤機能夠平穩(wěn)的向前移動，在圖6.15中，在拉緊裝置的一側拉力是P2，在松弛的一側是P1，因為牽引力P2是P1與P的總和，如果在鏈條松弛的一側是完全松弛的，P1＝0，在張緊的一側的拉力就是需要的牽引力，這時P2＝P。在上述條件下，雖然鏈條受到相對較小的拉力，傳動鏈輪不能平穩(wěn)通過，可能容易引起鏈條阻塞或突然拉緊鏈條。因此，在實際操作中，松弛的一側要正常保持一個較小的拉力，P2＝P1＋P。只有當拉緊裝置的一側的拉力足夠克服總的牽引阻力和在松弛一側的拉時，采煤機才能移動。
當采煤機從采煤工作面的一端開始工作時，牽引鏈相對是松弛的，當采煤機向前移動時，鏈逐漸的繃緊，當采煤機到工作面的另一端時，牽引鏈的張緊力是最大的，這時牽引鏈最容易斷裂。為了使張緊力不致過高，并且使松弛部分有足夠的張力，大多采煤機裝有拉緊裝置，拉緊裝置安裝在工作面輸送機的一端或兩端，這取決于單向還是雙向切割，牽引鏈通常和拉緊裝置關聯(lián)的，包括許多種拉緊裝置，但它們的基本性能是一樣的。
與鏈牽引有關的問題有鏈阻塞、鏈斷裂、鏈纏結，這些都是主要的事實，使用一段時期后牽引鏈會拉長和變得松弛。
（2）無鏈牽引
與鏈牽引的不利因素相比，鏈牽引是有所發(fā)展的。按照牽引原則，無鏈牽引可分為三種類型：鏈軌式無鏈牽引，齒軌式無鏈牽引，銷軌式無鏈牽引，齒軌式無鏈牽引是使用最為普遍的。
圖6.16是齒軌式無鏈牽引雙滾筒采煤機設備，牽引裝置是最普遍的一種，傳動鏈輪與皮帶鏈輪相嚙合，依次安裝在鋼制的導軌上，因此，驅動系統(tǒng)的動力傳動裝置的效率是很高的。導軌由許多零件組成與運輸機底座一樣的長度，但是它們安裝在各個零件的相鄰底座中心線上，這樣就能保證底座垂直和水平撓性達到最大值，保持在兩機架齒距偏差范圍在許用極限。習慣上有兩種方法可連接底座與機架部分：一種是將機架部分到底座線側面用螺旋桿連接在一起，另一種是將機架部分裝配到溜槽上。只有運輸機兩端的機架部分是安裝上去的，以便運輸機操縱的極少的撓性達到許用值，在圖6.17（b）中，吊鉤固定在導軌的鏈節(jié)和底座線導向葉片的滑道上，這些方法適用于鏈牽引到無鏈牽引的的轉換。
圖6.18是另一種齒軌式無鏈牽引裝置，傳動鏈輪與一特殊的滾子鏈輪直接嚙合在一起，它有五個淬火鋼滾輪，均勻的分布在一圓周上。當這一特殊的鏈輪或是滾子鏈輪旋轉時，淬火滾子在導軌的齒軌上運行并牽引采煤機運動。
