METHOD TO IMPLEMENT TRANSPORTATION PROCESSES IN UNDERGROUND MINING WORKS Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC E21F13/00 B61L27/00 

FIELD: mining.

SUBSTANCE: in a computerised control unit all transportation routes are registered available in an underground network of mine tunnels, including their status data affecting efficiency of transportation, and also transport means and transport reservoirs moving along transportation routes with related efficiency date and appropriate underground and aboveground locations, and also with their appropriate schedules, and at the same time the control unit for transportation processes to be performed with account of weight and dimensions subject to cargo transportation automatically generates a travel route and a schedule for the selected vehicle related with the appropriate working situation identified from the registered data, and sets up running schedules for automated unmanned vehicles or sends to service personnel of a communication facility of the selected vehicle.

EFFECT: optimisation of underground and aboveground transportation processes and higher reliability of supporting underground usage and consumption areas.
