Key Technology of Intelligent Coal Mining Equipment

Based on an idea of an unmanned coal mining technology, the paper introduced the orientation of an intelligent mining development in underground coal mine and provided the definition and technical connotation of the intelligent mining and excavation in coal mine. The paper reviewed the development and present status of the intelligent coal mining equipment and technology in China and pointed out that China would have an opportunity to take a commanding point of the intelligent min ing and excavation equipment and technology. The paper stated the three perceptive and three adaptive technical architecture and had an outlook on breakthrough dire ctions of the key technology related to the high efficient and adaptive coal and rock cutting technology, adaptive control technology of the hydraulic powered support, ad aptive regulation technology of power transmission, intelligent recognition technology of coal- rock interface, intelligent diagnosis technology of the coal mining equipme nt and adaptive cruise control technology of the coal mining equipment.
