CONTROL DEVICE FOR CUTTING TOOL DRIVE IN FRONT PLANT Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC E21C35/24 E21D9/93 

FIELD: mining, particularly remote control specially adapted for machines for slitting or completely freeing the mineral.

SUBSTANCE: device comprises the first, the second and the third asynchronous motors. The first and the second electric drives are connected to drive sprocket of closed pull chain provided with plough carriages, which may move along guiding means. Device also has hydraulic cylinders to move guiding means to face, mechanical gear, the first and the second safety hydraulic valves, the first and the second hydraulic pumps, the first and the second frequency converters, the first and the second frequency regulators, load sensors, load balancing unit, load regulator, load assignment unit, control unit, initial setting signaling unit, hydraulic distribution means, which control hydraulic cylinders to move guiding means to face, hydraulic units, electrohydraulic unit, channel switching unit, flow meter, excavated seam thickness setting unit, breakage face length setting unit, multiplication unit, divider, optimizing peak-holding controller, control signal generation unit, asynchronous single-phase motor and screw gear made as a nut and screw. The first and the second hydraulic pumps include volume regulation means.

EFFECT: reduced specific energy consumption along with increased front plant output.
