Study on Mine Shaft Liner Breaking Mechanism and Application of Monitoring System in Deep and Thick Overburden

摘要

The non-mining damage of shaft liner in deep and thick overburden occurred frequently in China. This causes heavy losses to the coal industry in China. The paper had a discussion on theories that explain the breaking mechanism of the mine shaft liner. As pointed out, the mining activities could make underground water table dropping, the strata consolidation and compaction could cause the overburden subsidence. Therefore a vertical additional force would be affected on the mine shaft liner and the vertical additional force would be the main factor to cause breakings on the mine shaft liner. According to the cause, the paper holds that a monitoring system should be built to monitor the additional strain of the mine shaft liner. Based on the analysis of these data, the safety of the mine shaft liner can be accuracy evaluated and timely forecasted. Therefore the mine liner breaking could be prevented before fracture by decreasing the vertical force or strengthening mine shaft liner.
