Abstract: A mine elevator is provided having an anti-explosion traction system, an anti-explosion lift car protection system, a flexible guide rail guiding system, a compound lift car, and a counterweight system. The anti-explosion traction system comprises a traction rope tension regulating device, an anti-explosion traction machine, and an anti-explosion control cabinet. The anti-explosion lift car protection system comprises a rope holder, a speed limiter, two hydraulic buffers, a safety clamp, a brake rope, and a brake rope tension buffer device. The flexible guide rail guiding system comprises a steel wire rope guide rail, a guide rail tension device connected to the steel wire rope guide rail and fixed to the an upper platform, a guide rail connection device connected to the steel wire rope guide rail and fixed to a lower platform, and a flexible guide rail guide sleeve fixed to the compound lift car and the counterweight system.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for automatically adjusting the tension on a mining elevator flexible guide rail. The apparatus comprises an automatic tightening apparatus (1) at the opening of the well, and a fixing apparatus (2) on the bottom of the well, respectively connected to two ends of the steel cable (3). The automatic tightening apparatus (1) at the opening of the well is connected to a hydraulic system (5) and to a tension measuring system (4). The automatic tightening apparatus (1) at the opening of the well comprises a lower retainer seat (1-14) arranged on an upper bearer beam (1-1), a tightening oil cylinder body (1-2) and a plunger thereof (1-3), a pin shaft retainer (1-11), a support frame (1-6), a fall-proof holder (1-13), a pin shaft holder (1-5), a fall-proof cable retainer (1-12), a tightening fixed cable retainer (1-10), two guide columns (1-7) and guide grooves thereof, an upper retainer seat (1-9), and a cable orientation-adjusting cable retainer (1-8).

Abstract: A mining elevator traction cable connecting apparatus and a measuring method therefor, for use in a mining elevator serving a deep-mine. The apparatus includes an industrial personal computer (IPC), a signal collector connected to the IPC, multiple symmetrically arranged cable rings for use in connecting to one end of a traction cable, and a traction cable tension adjusting apparatus connected to the multiple of cable rings. Arranged within the traction cable tension adjusting apparatus are a plurality of hydraulic cylinders, and a plurality of draw wire displacement sensors for use in monitoring the relative displacement between each hydraulic cylinder plunger and a corresponding hydraulic cylinder body. The draw wire displacement sensors and an oil pressure sensor connected to a hydraulic pipeline are connected to the IPC via the signal collector, forming a traction cable tension and degree of adjustment measuring system.
