Height adjustment of a shearer cutting drum is one of the key processes involved when the
shearer swings its cutting drum up and down on a fully mechanized mining face. Direct …

Drums are the core working mechanism of the coal mining machine for coal mining. The
structural design level of the drum is crucial for mining efficiency and safety production …

This paper analyses the possibility of increasing the efficiency of loading the destroyed rock
mass into the face scraper conveyor by the lagging screw actuator of the shearer in the …

The low loading rate of the thin coal seam shearer drum is a severe obstacle to the efficient
mining of thin seam resources, and the auxiliary drum loading through the cowl is an …

Poor performance in coal loading of thin coal shearer is the main reason affecting thin coal
mining efficiency. In the paper, the development of thin coal shearer coal loading …

The extremely poor loading performance of a thin coal shearer drum affects the mining
efficiency in thin seam mining seriously on account of the restriction by the complicated …

The poor coal loading performance of a shearer drum primarily restricts the widespread
application of the shearer and affects the mining efficiency in thin seam mining. The coal …

Three drums with different helical angles (15°, 20°, and 25°) were developed to investigate
improved loading performance of the shearer drum. Nine trials were performed at different …

To solve the problem of a low coal-loading rate being exhibited by the drum shearer on
Chinese thin coal seams, systematic tests and research were performed to study the pivotal …

The work presented in this paper focuses on improving coal loading performance of shear
drum. Employing the similarity theory, we carried out a dimensional analysis of the …
