DETAILED DESCRIPTION

An example of this disclosure is further described below while referring to the FIGURE:

A solid-filling coal mining feeding and conveying monitoring system of this disclosure mainly consists of an industrial control computer 7, a PLC control box, an operating platform 6, a liquid crystal display 5, a color four-picture divider, two video optical receivers and loudspeaker boxes, a camera A 2, a camera B 3, a camera C 14, a camera D 21, an uphole electronic belt scale 10, a downhole electronic belt scale 24, a radar level meter 17, a coal level sensor 19, a vibration sensor 18 and various matching junction boxes and cables. The operating platform 6, the liquid crystal display 5, the color four-picture divider, the video optical receivers and the loudspeaker boxes are all installed in a control room 4. The camera A 2 is installed at the outlet of a stock ground 1. The camera B 3 is installed above an uphole feeding port 8. The camera C 14 is installed at the upper port of a storage silo 20. The camera D 21 is installed in a gangue transportation lane 22. The monitoring videos of all the cameras are transmitted to the ground control room 4 via cables. The stocking situation of the stock ground 1, the situation of the uphole feeding port 8, the level of the downhole storage silo 20, the running state of the buffering device 15, the operation situation of the downhole coal feeder 23, and the downhole rubber belt conveyor 25 are real-time displayed on the liquid crystal display 5. The uphole electronic belt scale 10 is installed on the ground rubber belt conveyor 9. The downhole electronic belt scale 24 is installed on the downhole rubber belt conveyor 25, respectively, for real-time monitoring and recording the excess amount of the filling materials. The radar level meter 17 and the coal level sensor 19 are installed in the storage silo 20 for real-time monitoring the material amount in the storage silo. The vibration sensor 18 is installed under a damping beam 16 of a buffering device 15 for real-time monitoring the running state of the buffering device 15.

Working principle and working process: four cameras A, B, C, and D are, respectively, installed in the stock ground 1 above the uphole feeding port 8 at the upper port of the downhole storage silo 20 and in the gangue transportation lane 22, respectively, for real-time monitoring the stocking situation of the stock ground 1, the feeding situation of the feeding port 8, the level of the storage silo 20 and the running state of the buffering device 15, the operation situations of the lower port of the storage silo 20, the downhole coal feeder 23 and the downhole rubber belt conveyor 25. The information is directly displayed on the liquid crystal display 5 in the control room 4 in a video form, such that the operator can check the real-time operation situation of various devices at any time.

The uphole electronic belt scale 10 is installed on a ground rubber belt conveyor 9, and the downhole electronic belt scale 24 is installed on a downhole rubber belt conveyor 25, respectively, for real-time monitoring and recording the excess amount of the filling materials.

The radar level meter 17 and the coal level sensor 19 are installed in the storage silo 20 for real-time monitoring the material amount in the storage silo 20. By analyzing the monitoring data of the radar level meter 17 and the coal level sensor 19, the storage amount in the storage silo 20 can be obtained. When the storage amount reaches the set maximum, a buzzer in the PLC control box gives an alarm.

The vibration sensor 18 is installed under the damping beam 16 of the buffering device 15 for real-time monitoring the running state of the buffering device 15. By analyzing the operating state of the vibration sensor 18, if the feeding port 8 is feeding while the vibration sensor 18 does not sense any vibration signal, the buzzer gives an alarm.

The industrial control computer 7, the operating platform 6, the liquid crystal display 5, the color four-picture divider, the two video optical receivers and loudspeaker boxes are all installed in the control room 4. The monitoring data from the camera and the sensor is transmitted to the control room 4 via cables. Starting, stopping and locking of the ground rubber belt conveyor 9, the uphole electronic belt scale 10, the downhole electronic belt scale 24 and the downhole rubber belt conveyor 25 can be realized in the control room. Meanwhile, history and operating record of the monitoring data can be queried in the control room. When the difference between the excess amount of the ground rubber belt conveyor 9 recorded by the uphole electronic belt scale 10 and the excess amount of the downhole rubber belt conveyor 25 recorded by the downhole electronic belt scale 24 exceeds the set value, the buzzer gives an alarm. When the ground control room 4 receives the alarm, the operation of the ground rubber belt conveyor 9 and the ground coal feeder 12 would be stopped immediately.
