  • Publication number: 20260110250
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for coal seam gas seepage displacement, seepage water locking and dust reduction. During the injection period, a pressure pump and pumping system are used to control the pressure and pumping flow rate, and a micro-nano bubble surface active liquid coupling medium is used for seepage displacement of coal seam gas, ensuring efficient discharge or extraction of coal seam gas. After the injection is completed, the micro-nano bubbles surface-active liquid coupling medium is stored in the coal seam, and the coal seam is subjected to seepage water locking and dust reduction. Through the seepage displacement, the seepage velocity of coal seam gas is increased. Through the seepage water locks, the desorption rate of coal seam gas is suppressed. Through the dust reduction, the wetting reversal of coal seams can be achieved, and the moisture content is increased, thereby reducing the generation of dust.

  • Publication number: 20250064313
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an all-round observation under-actuated capsule robot and an axis rolling-over locomotion method thereof by magnetic field control. A radially magnetized NdFeB magnet ring is loaded into an inner cavity of a capsule sphere in a non-connected way, and the NdFeB magnet ring independently idles with the rotating magnetic field around a capsule axis and is completely suspended in the inner cavity filled with silicone oil in the capsule sphere. Under the drive of a coaxial following magnetic moment, the under-actuated capsule sphere cannot rotate around the capsule axis, but the capsule axis can roll synchronously with the rotation axis of the magnetic field. The present invention increases the scanning range of the capsule, enhances environmental adaptability, and has high accuracy of fixed point posture adjustment of the capsule, rolling locomotion stability, good visual observation effect and good application prospect.
