The present invention relates to technical field of mining equipment technology, and more particularly to a cageway connecting device and connecting method thereof.
In the vertical shaft hoisting system in the field of mine, when the hoisting container is running up and down, the roller lug on the hoisting container is required to guide the movement in the vertical direction of the cageway, so as to ensure that the hoisting container does not swing in the horizontal direction and ensure the safety of the hoisting system. At present, many cageways (about 12 meters each) made by cold-rolled square steel are used, one by one from the head to the bottom of the mine to form a complete cageway with a length of several hundred meters or more. Each cageway is connected with the first cageway beam through the first steel angle, and the first cageway beam is connected with the shaft again and again. However, there are some disadvantages in traditional cageway structure connection mode, and they are as follows.
(1) It is not easy to ensure the installation accuracy of the cageway. Because the installation accuracy of the cageway is adjusted by the cageway beam, once the cageway beam is fixed, the adjustment range of the cageway is very small, and the adjustment method is limited. In addition, two or more cageways are often fixed on one cageway beam, and the position of each cageway cannot be adjusted. There is extrusion relationship between adjacent cageways, which also has a negative impact on the installation accuracy.
(2) It is easy to cause deformation when the upper and lower cageways are squeezed. There are two ways to connect the upper and lower cageways, one is direct butt joint, which has less mutual interference between the upper and lower cageways, but there is dislocation between the cageways, which is very harmful to the overall quality improvement of the cageway, and many new mines are no longer used. The other way is to weld the positioning cannula at the end of the cageway, and directly insert the positioning cannula into another cageway. The upper and lower cageways of the two ways transfer forces to each other, and these forces are uncontrollable, especially when multiple cageways transfer forces together downward, which may cause deformation of the lower cageway beam and cageways.
(3) It is not conducive to the maintenance and adjustment of cageway. After the hoisting system runs for a period of time, the shaft wall will settle and deform, or the cageway beam and the cageways are damaged, so it is necessary to adjust the position of the cageway and the cageway beam. In the traditional structure, because the upper and lower cageways are squeezed together, it is difficult to adjust.
(4) It is not conducive to replace cageway. Take the replace connected by plug-in method as an example, multiple cageways are connected into one body. If one cageway is to be replaced, the cageway must be cut. When reinstalling another cageway, because the position cannula cannot be inserted, it can only be simply connected, and there is a great possibility of dislocation between cageways, thus reducing the quality of the overall cageway.
With the development of mining industry, higher and higher requirements are put forward for lifting height, load and speed. If the straightness, smoothness and flatness of the whole cageway cannot meet the technical requirements, the maintenance and repair conditions cannot be guaranteed, and the requirements for high speed and heavy load of the lifting system cannot be achieved. Therefore, it is necessary to design a kind of connecting device and connecting method of the cageways to solve the above contradictions.
