摘要:
A mineral mining machine having a rotary cutter and a probe on the cutter head which senses the cutting horizon of the cutter head relative to boundaries of the mineral seam and which derives an electric signal which is fed to control means on the body of the machine for controlling the machine''s steering mechanism. The signal is conveyed from the rotating cutter to the non-rotating body via two spaced annular plates arranged as a capacitor.

The invention relates to apparatus for steering longwall mining machines. The apparatus comprises an electromagnetic-radiation emitter/detector which is mounted on the end of an arm pivotally mounted on the machine. The emitter/detector is located immediately behind the machine''s rotary cutter and is urged by a hydraulic jack so as to remain close to the roof.
