HORIZON MONITORING FOR CONTINUOUS DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2021 - IPC E21C25/06 E21C35/24 E21F17/18 G08B25/00 

FIELD: mining.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to the monitoring of the line of support elements and the horizon of the undercut and the position of the coal cutter of the continuous development system. The monitoring device for a continuous development system includes a coal cutter that has a first cutting reel and a second cutting reel. The monitoring device contains a memory and an electronic processor connected to the memory and located in connection with the coal cutter. The electronic processor is configured to receive position data from the coal cutter sensor, configured to determine the position of at least one selected from a group consisting of the coal cutter, the first cutting reel and the second cutting reel, to identify from the position data of the coal cutter of the first transition point indicating the starting point of the discrete undercut cycle, to identify from the position data of the coal cutter of the second transition point indicating the end point of the discrete undercut cycle, to generate profile data for a discrete undercut cycle based on the position data of the coal cutter, the first transition point and the second transition point, and to generate an alert for display on the display screen based on the analysis of the profile data.

EFFECT: increased efficiency of coal extraction.
