Transportation of large pieces of rock hauled on the belt conveyor causes fatigue wearness of the belt rollers. It has been proposed to upgrade the system of magnetic suspension using alteration of the direction of the magnetization vector of the permanent and levitating magnets in conveyor where there...

The areas of improvement in the design of the crowns of roadheaders of selective action and other mining machines. Suggested was the usage of biconical, conical disk tools and their attachment assemblies to the triangular prisms on the crowns of roadheaders and shearers-bladed screws for the destruction...

Hoists are equipment with unsteady service. Due to this considerable dynamic loading on the hoist and its elements is given, sometimes involving failure of equipment. On the other hand, technological development is going on. Modern control elements are widely used to realize economic and comfortable...

The article describes the design and operational factors leading to failures in mounting groups of the modern auger equipment. At the same time, the operating experience was considered of using antifriction bearings with solid lubricant antifriction filler (AFZ) having self-lubricating and self-sealing...

The article proposes a method of diagnostics of the actual technical condition of the motor-wheel gear of pit dump trucks. It allows monitoring of the wear of the bearing assemblies, and also to control the parameters of units upon achieving the maximum permissible meanings. Application of this method...

The purpose of the work is to increase effi-ciency in the use of dump trucks in open pit mining by improving operational reliability, reducing bounce rates, reducing the length of the vehicle repairing and, as a result, the cost of the final product. The article describes how to improve the reli-ability...

The issue of the squirrel-cage induction motor start-up mode control is considered. Its unsatisfactory dynamic state in the direct power connection mode is remarked. The problem of the squirrel-cage induction motor start-up mode control based on the definition of its current electromagnetic state, while...

Gear shafts of drill rigs in case of holes drilling in coal mines work in complex aperiodical loading conditions. One way to reduce metal consumption of gear shafts is to use the combined strengthening technology on the basis of plastic deformation of the surface (PDS) method. FEM modeling of plastic...

It is proposed to conduct fault diagnostic test on electric drives of mining shovels based on the results of monitoring the current values of electromagnetic and mechanical parameters and variables of electric drives obtained in the course of their operation using the modern computer technology. The...

Based on supporting failure mechanism and time and space function law of surrounding rock deformation, using the FLAC3D numerical simulation analyzes the bolt mesh cable coupling support of roadway in time support and lagging support. Support in time covers high strength and high strength and pre tightening...
