According to a second embodiment of the invention there is provided a method of reinforcing a wall or ceiling in an underground mine or tunnel, comprising: inserting into a hole drilled in said wall or ceiling, one end of a rock bolt having a plurality of surfaces, which surfaces extend angularly about and longitudinally of the longitudinal axis of said rock bolt, and converge with respect to the axis toward said end; and screwing a nut onto the other end of said rock bolt which is threaded so that a plurality of collars which are associated with each one of said surfaces and co-
1 Registered Trade Mark by Du Pont operate therewith is caused to radially expand so as to project radially beyond its associated surface to hold said rock bolt in position.
According to a third embodiment of the invention there is provided a rock bolt comprising: a shaft having one end threaded to receive a nut, the other end being provided with at least one surface, said surface extending angularly about and longitudinally of the longitudinal axis of the shaft, and converging with respect to the axis toward the one end; and at least one collar, said collar being associated with said surface and co- operating therewith so that upon relative movement of said collar with respect to its associated surface toward the other end, said collar is caused to radially expand so as to project radially beyond its associated surface.
According to a fourth embodiment of the invention there is provided a method of reinforcing a wall or ceiling in an underground mine or tunnel, comprising: inserting into a hole drilled in said wall or ceiling, one end of a rock bolt having at least one surface, which surface extends angularly about and longitudinally of the longitudinal axis of said rock bolt, and converge with respect to the axis toward said end; and screwing a nut onto the other end of said rock bolt which is threaded so that at least one collar which is associated with said surface and co-operates therewith is caused to radially expand so as to project radially beyond its associated surface to hold said rock bolt in position.
A preferred form of the rock bolt of the present invention is one wherein the shaft has a main elongated body and the surface(s) is provided by a frusto-conical portion(s) moulded integral with the body.
Another preferred form of the rock bolt of the present invention is one where each of the collars is a split ring. These rings will close up upon insertion into the hole clamping the rock bolt and stopping it from rotation after installation.
Another preferred form of the rock bolt of the present invention is one which has at least one wing which allows the rotation of the rock bolt in one direction only.
Generally the shaft of the rock bolt is elongated and is moulded from plastics material or machined from metal. The threaded end may also be moulded from plastics material and moulded to the shaft. The plurality of surfaces and collars are also usually moulded from plastics material or may be machined from metal. The plurality of surfaces is usually moulded in the form of between one and three tapered surfaces which converge toward the threaded end of the shaft. The length of the tapered surface or the combination of tapered surfaces is approximately 50 to 230mm, preferably each tapered surface is 50 to 80mm, most preferably 60 to 75mm in length. Generally the tapered surfaces have a diameter which varies from 10 to 40mm, preferably 10 to 30mm, more preferably the diameter varies from 19 to 40mm, most preferably the diameter varies from 19 to 26mm. In coal mining applications the dimensions of the tapered surfaces is important.
The collars may be shaped as frusto-conical, square, hexagonal or any other shape. The collars are typically shaped as frusto-conical split rings. Usually the split rings are tapered so that the split rings converge toward the threaded end of the shaft. The diameter of the split ring varies from 20 to 40mm, preferably from 26 to 36mm, most preferably 26 to 32mm.
The rock bolt of the present invention may further optionally comprise at least one wing which is attached to the shaft by any suitable means. Alternatively, the wing may be integrally formed with the shaft. If two wings are present, they are arranged so that they are diagonally opposite each other. A great number of wings may be integrally formed with the shaft or attached thereto and the wings would be equally spaced apart. The wings are shaped and angled to allow rotation of the rock bolt in one direction only. An example of one shape of the wing is one that is a blade-like shape, extending substantially tangentially from the shaft, that is a flat structure having two straight edges meeting at one point. Other variations of this shape are possible.
The rock bolt of the present invention may also comprise a series of longitudinal ribs on the tapered surfaces. The length of the longitudinal ribs would vary depending on the length of the tapered surfaces. Typically the longitudinal ribs would be approximately 60 to 75mm in length. The longitudinal ribs would be preferably spaced apart equally around the outer surface of the tapered surfaces.
Should the rock bolt be formed of plastics material, an advantage would be that the rock bolt may be ultimately ground up by a mining machine. Advantageously, the rock bolt is made up of fibre glass material to be cut up by mining machinery.
Brief Description of Drawings A preferred embodiment of the invention is now described with reference to the following drawings in which: Figure 1 is a perspective view of the rock bolt having tapered surfaces with split rings;
Figure la is a cross sectional view along the line la-la of Figure 1 showing a split collar on the taper; Figure 2 is a cross sectional side elevation of the rock bolt having tapered surfaces with split rings; and
Figure 3 is a an end view of the rock bolt illustrating a pair of wings.
Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention The rock bolt 1 of the present invention is illustrated in Figure 1 as comprising a shaft 2, a plurality of surfaces 3, 3a, 3b and a plurality of collars 4, 4a, 4b.
Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the shaft 2 is an elongated shaft moulded from plastic. End 5 of shaft 2 is threaded to receive a nut which is not illustrated. The thread may extend a short distance from end 5 or throughout the entire length of the shaft 2.
A plurality of surfaces 3, -3a, 3b is located close to other end 6 of shaft 2. The plurality of surfaces 3, 3a, 3b is illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 as three tapered surfaces. Each tapered surface 3, 3a, 3b is shown as converging toward threaded end 5. Each tapered surface 3, 3a, 3b is shown as a frusto-conical surface. Tapered surface 3b further comprises a flanged end 7 which is integrally moulded with tapered surface 3b. Flanged end 7 acts as a barrier for collar 4b so that collar 4b does not slip toward threaded end 5.
The plurality of collars 4, 4a, 4b are shown in Figures 1 and la as split rings. Split rings 4, 4a, 4b are frusto-conical which converge toward end 6. Split rings 4, 4a, 4b are relatively freely movable along respective surfaces 3, 3a, 3b.
Figure 3 is a top plan view of end 6. Flanged end 7 is shown as having a pair of wings 8, 8a which are integrally formed with flanged end 7.
To use a rock bolt 1 of the invention, a hole is drilled in a roof of a mine or coal rib. End 6 is inserted into the hole. A plate is placed around the rock bolt 1 and a nut is screwed onto threaded end 5. As the nut screws onto threaded end 5, the rock bolt 1 is tensioned. This causes the split rings 4, 4a, 4b to slide toward end 6. As split rings 4, 4a, 4b slide, they expand radially, thereby pushing against the walls of the hole. In this way, the split rings 4, 4a, 4b project radially beyond tapered surfaces 3, 3a, 3b to hold the rock bolt in position.
If the rock bolt 1 of the present invention has a pair of wings 8, 8a integrally formed thereon, the wings 8, 8a are arranged in a direction which is opposite that of threaded end 5. So when a nut is screwed onto threaded end 5, the wings 8, 8a act as an anti-rotating device by gripping to the walls of the hole. Thus the rock bolt 1 is prevented from turning as the nut is being screwed onto threaded end 5.
Industrial Applicability A rock bolt of the invention can be readily utilised in the mining industry, especially in the coal mining industry.
