Definitions

  • the invention relates to a soil removal device which Preamble of claim 1 corresponding type.
  • the starting point for the invention is the removal of hard rock been under water.
  • the problem with mining Rock under water is the often relatively great depth of 200m and more below sea level, in which the Locations are. This mining situation requires special Mining techniques.
  • DE 29 38 448 A1 describes a device for digesting crops known from the bottom of a body of water from which the present Invention comes out. It includes one from a platform the lowerable vehicle, which is used to release the Soil material has a paddle wheel. The loosened soil material becomes the platform by means of a conveyor line promoted.
  • a disadvantage of the known prior art is that All of the aforementioned mining techniques are relatively sensitive when or not suitable for mining hard rock deposits, are.
  • the invention has for its object a generic Develop device so that it adapt more easily to different mining situations can and a greater mining performance even with hard rock formations enables.
  • the means for releasing the soil material a breast disintegration at least one according to the undercut principle working tool must include the tool due to its peeling way of working only the Tensile strength (shear-resistant) of the soil material to be removed overcome.
  • this shear strength is only a fraction of the compressive strength of the hard rock formations, so that to achieve a comparable Driving the mining front a much lower one Drive power is required.
  • This is based on the undercut principle working tool can by means of the vehicle be supported on the floor and with an appropriate Feed force work. Because of the driveability the vehicle can target the removal tool on the ground be moved back and forth.
  • That is particularly powerful and versatile Mining device if that according to the undercut principle working tool for loosening the at the Breast of the existing soil comprises an ablation arm, the one with about the longitudinal central axis of the removal arm rotation-driven removal head is equipped. The breasts are then gradually removed continuous lowering of the tool.
  • the removal rate that can be achieved is in the case of an inventive one Mining device in which the at least one removal arm with the help of a force generator by at least one Pivot axis preferably pivotable at least about 90 ° is further increased because without a movement of the Vehicle the soil on the mining chest to be solved can.
