43、;　　3 采煤截割次序的技術(shù)說明</p><p>　　"為什么長壁采煤法應(yīng)用的不同切割次序?"這個問題是必須回答的,在以討論操作工序的主要規(guī)則之前，切割方法主要受到煤層的厚度和煤層硬度等因素的限制，就像煤層的物理參數(shù)和礦的地質(zhì)學(xué)條件影響煤的崩落能力一樣，同樣也會影響長壁采煤法工作面的煤層塌方。對于不同的地質(zhì)條件，不同的截割次序都會得到不同的生產(chǎn)效率和不同質(zhì)量的工作面。 煤送入甲板輸送機之上正如

44、采煤機截割，是采煤中的另外一個問題,尤其是在截齒上受到的屈服應(yīng)力和疲勞應(yīng)力。 一個對于選擇最適合的截割次序的全面分析是必要的-適合采礦替換;因為，一般性的解答是不能保證最佳的效率和產(chǎn)量。 </p><p>　　對于一個采煤機截割次序的分類是通過四個主要的參數(shù)來規(guī)定的.第一，能在采礦方法之間分開,向礦井的兩個方向即從頭到尾。第二，根據(jù)截割次序，在到達工作面尾部, 預(yù)先在選取一個等價的線切斷網(wǎng),是區(qū)分截割方法的一個獨

45、立的參數(shù)。必須有一定的距離空間以改變截割次序, 因為做這些需要一定的時間。 定義截割次序的另外一個方面是網(wǎng)狀斷煤的軌跡。 然而傳統(tǒng)地完整的使用, 現(xiàn)代的甲板輸送機和液壓支架系統(tǒng)允許使用有效率的一半網(wǎng)方法操作。區(qū)分截割工藝的以前那些參數(shù)就可以把不同的截割方式區(qū)分。除了部份或半開口像被用在Matla的循環(huán)截割中的那些一樣的方法,切斷高度分別包括柔軟懸吊裝置和采煤機的高度，它和煤層厚度相等。 </p><p><

48、一個方向循環(huán)而使截割的工作效率低，它是單向截割次序的主要缺點。此外煤流可能是相當(dāng)不規(guī)則，它依賴于采煤機在截割周期中的位置。</p><p><b>　　半滾筒截割次序</b></p><p>　　半滾筒截割的主要優(yōu)點是它減少采煤機在截割過程中的無效截割時間,造成高機器利用。如圖 2 所顯示的半滾筒截割次序處于工作面中間位置時，它與雙方向截割次序具有一致性。完整的滾筒在

52、。 既然這一個模型的目標(biāo)要實現(xiàn)進一步的增加生產(chǎn)力，該計算是基于在沒有人工的操作干預(yù)的情況下一個完全自動化的系統(tǒng)操作的工作面。制約牽引速度的唯一因素是甲板輸送機,切割電動機和牽引電動機相互獨立。 </p><p>　　通過比較四種截割次序的可變參數(shù) (除了煤層厚度) 煤截割的能耗和長壁采煤法的工作面的長度被降低。前者在0.2 到0.4，后者在100 m 和 400 m 之間每間隔50 m，因為它們受到多方面的因素影
