A screen-handling stinger extends and retracts hydraulically from within a bore of a hydraulic stinger of a rock bolter. The screen-handling stinger has a finger that engages a screen. The screen-handling stinger retracts the screen until it snugly abuts the front face of a pad of the stinger. The screen can then be rotated by the rotation motor of the stinger.

Systems for installing roof support sheets on a mine roof. One system includes a support frame, a lifting system, and a feeding system. The support frame holds a plurality of roof support sheets. The lifting system lifts at least one of the sheets from the support frame. The feeding system obtains the at least one sheet from the lifting system and feeds the at least one sheet toward an installation apparatus for installation on the mine roof. The lifting system includes a shoe and at least one arm for moving the shoe to engage and move the at least one sheet. The feeding system includes a drive assembly and a support. The drive assembly engages and moves the at least one sheet toward the installation apparatus, and the support supports the at least one sheet moved by the drive assembly.
摘要:
A roll of grid material for mine roof support, and a mining machine in combination with such a roll, in which the roll has bands of adhering material injected or otherwise forced into the roll in spaced locations along the roll's width. The adhering material interconnects the overlapped layers within the roll so that the roll is self-resistant to unrolling. Also provided is a method of making such a roll including the steps of winding a length of polymeric mesh material into a roll and applying an adhering material to the mesh material. The adhering material has sufficient strength to hold the roll in a wound configuration and prevent the roll from free-wheeling or unwinding due to the roll's own physical properties.
摘要:
A roll of grid material for mine roof support, and a mining machine in combination with such a roll, in which the roll has bands of adhering material injected or otherwise forced into the roll in spaced locations along the roll's width. The adhering material interconnects the overlapped layers within the roll and is sufficiently strong to hold the grid material in the rolled configuration for transport and storage, and yet is readily pulled apart in response to sufficient manual or mechanical pressure applied against the roll, or tension applied to the unwound portion thereof, so as to enable the grid material to be incrementally unwound and installed in the mine. The rolls can be installed using a range of mining machines without need for any specialized dispensing or other apparatus mounted on the machine and without the need for any mechanical device to control unwinding.

A tunnel-lagging element, adapted to be embedded in spray or injection concrete for the lining of the wall of a tunnel, comprising a pair of reinforcing bars which are held substantially against the tunnel wall, and a further pair of such bars spaced from the bars of the first pair. The bars at the central third of their lengths are fixed to one another against relative movement by straps while, toward the ends of the element, the bars of the two pairs are held together with limited freedom of longitudinal movement. The entire assembly of bars and straps can be embedded in the concrete lining.

A method of installing a fill fence system at a predetermined location to at least partially cover an opening defined by a back, a floor, and side walls. The method includes providing a carrier system including a carrier assembly, locating the carrier assembly in a safe zone adjacent to the unsafe zone, and positioning an assembled fill fence assembly on the carrier assembly. The carrier assembly and the full fence assembly are moved to a preselected location. With the carrier assembly at the preselected location, the fill fence assembly is positioned at the predetermined location, and installed at least partially to cover the opening. The carrier assembly is disengaged from the fill fence assembly and removed from the preselected location. The fill fence system includes a securing element is applied to help secure the fill fence assembly in the opening.

This new system can utilize a threaded bolt head on one end of a roof bolt and an anchoring device on the other end of the bolt. The roof bolt is designed in such a manner to allow the bolt head to drive the bolt for anchoring purposes and to allow the bolt head to also serve as the attachment mechanism for ancillary appendages. This system can be utilized as the primary roof bolting system, or, as an ancillary system in conjunction with existing primary roof bolts.
摘要:
A mining mesh comprises successive undulated transverse links (1,2,3,4), which are interconnected together at the bent portions of the links, whereby each pair of successive undulated links (1,2), (3,4), . . . forms a row of adjacent rectangular or square meshes (5) having four sides. The mesh is characterised in that at least at one border of the mesh, for each pair of successive links, the last side of the first link (1) is bent upwardly and backwardly over a sharp angle, whereby the end of this last side is hooked around the penultimate (last but one) side of the second link (2) and that the last side of the second link (2) is bent downwardly and backwardly over a sharp angle, whereby the end of this last side is hooked around the penultimate (last but one) side of the first link (1). The advantage is a stronger mining mesh where the overlap between two adjacent rolls can be limited.
摘要:
A system for handling a roll of mesh for application to one or more faces of an underground mine passage includes a dispenser for supporting the roll of mesh for application to at least one face of the mine passage, as well as at least one arm for supporting the mesh adjacent to the face upon being dispensed from the dispenser. The arm is capable of flexing in providing this support to provide tension to the mesh during the application from the roll to the at least one face of the mine passage. The dispenser may include a cradle for dispensing the mesh from the roll. The cradle may include a base for supporting the roll of mesh and at least one laterally extendable support for supporting a first lateral side of the roll of mesh. Related methods are also disclosed.
