Experimental investigation of dynamic impact of roadheader on floor
Journal Title: Mining – Informatics, Automation and Electrical Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 533, Issue 1
Abstract
This article presents the selected results of experimental examinations performed on the test stand in the Technological Hall of the Faculty of Mining and Geology at the Silesian University of Technology in which an R-130 roadheader (by Famur S.A.) is installed. During the examinations, the courses of dynamic load were determined in the points of the roadheader’s boom support during its operation. In order to determine the impact of the cutting process on the strengths transferred onto the floor, the distribution of the static load of the roadheader’s supports caused by its own weight with its changing center of gravity caused by the boom deflecting were determined. During the examinations, the size and nature of the dynamic impact of the roadheader on the floor in its support points while cutting the surface of the block made of equivalent materials (cement and sand masses) of various uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) was determined experimentally. The nature of the roadheader’s chassis vibrations caused by cutting as well as the changeability of the location of its anchorage point with the movement of the cutting heads on the surface being mined result in high load fitfully in the roadheader’s support points. The dynamic impact of the roadheader on the floor also has a strongly dynamic character.
