although there are two types of underground coal mines – access via vertical shafts and drift mines (incline shafts), depending on the depth of the coal seam and the surrounding terrain – this article will concentrate on mine hoist applications that are used in mines that have vertical access to the coal seam: i.e., the mine hoists that carry …

 · Vertical shaft, as the main channel connecting the underground and surface, plays a major role in mining activities such as ventilation, ore transportation and drainage. Therefore, the stability of vertical shaft determines the safety of workers and the efficiency of ore extraction (Du et al. 2020 ).

 · Cleat - the vertical cleavage of coal seems. The main set of joints along which coal breaks when mined. Coal dust - particles of coal that can pass a No. 20 sieve. Coal Mine - an area of land and all structures, facilities, machinery, tools, equipment, shafts, slopes, tunnels, excavations, and other property, real or

The ore was mined from 12,900 coal mines, about 6,500 metal mines and about 80,000 non-metal mines, with only five per cent of these being underground mines. In 1957, the Beijing Institute of Mine Construction of China Coal Research Institute was set up to develop modern shaft sinking techniques and the use of mechanized mining equipment in China.

vertical shafts are largely applied to coal-mines, and some engineers have advocated their usefulness to the mining of the metals under discussion. Their great advantages lie in their structural strength, in the large amount of free space for ventilation, and in the fact that if walled with stone, brick, concrete, or steel, they can be
