The document discusses mining methods and equipment used for underground coal mining using the bord and pillar method. It provides specifications for various mining equipment used including Load Haul Dumpers (LHDs), Side Discharge Loaders (SDLs), drilling machines, conveyors, haulage systems, and their capacities. Formulas are given to calculate production rates based on machine specifications and operating parameters.
4. Applicability Condition
• Seam Thickness : more than 1.8m
• Average seam Gradient : up to 1 in 7
• Suitable for weak floor as compared to SDL
• Maximum speed 8-12 KMPH
• Suitable for long distance
5. • Headings of 4.8 m width is driven
• In a gallery auger holes are drilled in the middle
of the face upto 2m depth and shot holes are
drilled upto 1.8m depth.
• P1 type permitted explosive with instantaneous
type electric copper detonator is used.
• Coal is loaded by LHD on to chain conveyor which
in turn transfer coal to the belt conveyor.

10. Model EIMCO ELECON 912E
• Bucket Capacity : 2.7 tons
• Electric Motor : 440 V 64.15 KW
• Height : 2.11 – 2.78 m
• Length : 7.55m
• Payload : 4000 kg
• Cable reel : 120 m
22. Depillaring with LHD
• Average seam thickness : 4.5 m
• Gradient : 1 in 7 to 1 in 8
• Higher productivity
• Minimum labour requirement
• Limited roadway dimension
25. Production of different jumbo drills
• Width of heading(w) = 4.8 m
• Height of gallery(h) = 3 m
• No of faces (N) = 9
• No of blast per face per shift = 1
• Specific gravity of coal(Sg) = 1.4
Production per blast = w*h*Hd*Sg *N
Where Hd= Hole depth in m
26. Model No Hole depth (m) Production per blast (t)

BMH2837 3.405 617.8
BMH 2843 4.015 728.5
BMH 2849 4.625 834.6
27. LHD
• Average lead dis of LHD (d) = 60 m
• Average speed of LHD (v) = 6 KMPH
• Bucket capacity = b
• Bucket fill factor(F) = 0.8
• Loose coal density(D) = 0.9
• Amount of coal loaded per trip = b*F*D = 0.72b
• Cycle Time of LHD = 1+1+1.5 = 3.5 min
• Hourly no of trips = 17
• Hourly production of LHD = Hourly no of trips * 0.72b =
12.24 b
28. For no. of LHD,
No. of LHD = (Total production/no. of hrs per
shift * no of shift * hourly production of LHD)
= 728 / 3 *3*12.24b
= 6.67/b
29. Model No Bucket capacity (m3) No of LHD required

32. ENDLESS ROPE HAULAGE
• Avg Speed of Endless haulage = 5KMPH
• Amount of coal to be handled = a
• Length of the roadway on which ERH operates
