Description
- This application claims the benefit of Provisional Patent Application Ser. #60/186846 filed Mar. 03, 2000
- 1. Field of Invention
- This invention relates to the construction of ventilation control devices or “stoppings” used in mine tunnels. The preferred mine stopping of this invention is constructed of blocks made from a light weight foaming material such as but not limited to polyurethane foam and have a tongue and groove configuration.
- 2. Description of Prior Art
- Stopping devices are used to control and direct the flow of fresh air throughout mine tunnels and more especially the working face. Conventional stoppings consist of walls constructed of concrete block. These walls are difficult to construct and very labor intensive. For example one stopping could use 160 blocks weighing 40 lbs each. This means 6400 lbs of blocks would have to be loaded on a mining car on the outside of the mine. This load would then be transported inside the mine, often a number of miles, to the end of the track nearest the stopping construction site. At this point this 6400 lb load of blocks most likely will have to be manually unloaded from the car. If a scoop or other piece of equipment is readily available they can be loaded directly into it and hauled to the construction site. If haulage equipment is not available these blocks will have to be manually unloaded to the ground and later manually loaded onto haulage equipment and hauled to the construction site. Once on the construction site these blocks will be unloaded and stacked to make a stopping wall. This illustration shows that these very heavy blocks most likely will have to be handled 3 or 4 times from the outside to the construction site. Moreover in many areas of a mine, the portion of the mine tunnel to be stopped may be of a limited height and cross-sectional area, requiring a miner to carry heavy concrete blocks some distance in a crouched position or even on his hands and knees.
- The rigidity of a mine stopping of this type make it susceptable to damage from heaving of the mine floor or sagging of the mine roof. This damage to the stopping will cause air leakage and will have to be repaired or in some cases totally rebuilt.
- Prior arts attempt to overcome some of these burdens associated with concrete block mine stoppings have included the use of polyurethane filled bags by Bailey Patent #6082828, polyurethane sheets by Jones Patent #6056638 and the use of a matrix material coated with a sealant by Steffenino Patent #5934990. Each of these have had little or no practical success.
- Therefore it is evident that there is a great need for an improved mine stopping, one that is easily transported, can be readily constructed, even in difficult locations, and handle convergent loads. This invention addresses these needs.
- The blocks of this invention are made of a light weight foaming material such as but not limited to polyurethane foam and have a tongue and groove configuration. The top of the block has a tongue and the bottom has a groove. One end of the block has a tongue and the other has the groove. As the bottom row is placed the tongue on the end of the first block inserts into the groove of the next block. Subsequent blocks are placed in like manner, with tongues engaging grooves, across the opening to be stopped. A second row of blocks will be placed on top of the first assuring that the blocks end joints are staggered. The groove on the bottom of this row of blocks will accept the tongue of the blocks of the first row. Subsequent rows are done in a like manner until the stopping wall is completed.
- Accordingly, several objects and advantages of my invention are:
- 1 provide an improved mine stopping that will permit effective ventilation of the mine face.
- 2 provide an improved mine stopping that will withstand convergance of the mine floor and roof without failing thereby extending the life of the stopping.
- 3 provide an improved mine stopping which can be more quickly and easily be installed.
- 4 provide an improved mine stopping that will weigh less therefore making it easier transported.
- 5 provide a mine stopping block that can be re-used.
- Still further objects and advantages will become apparent from a consideration of the ensuing description and accompanying drawings.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a room and pillar mine.
- FIG. 2 is an overall view showing tongue end of block.
- FIG. 3 is a side view of FIG. 2
- FIG. 4 is a top view of FIG. 2.
- FIG. 5 is an overall view showing groove end of block.
- FIG. 6 is an end view of block.
- FIG. 7 is a top view of a row of blocks placed end to end showing tongues and grooves engaged and stopping walls placement between mine pillars.
- FIG. 8 is an overall view of a stopping wall constructed by using a plurality of blocks. Exposed end of wall also shows tongues and grooves of the top and bottom of blocks engaged.
- FIG. 9 is a view of stopping wall with a sealant being applied.

- In describing this embodiment of the invention specific terminology and dimensions will be used for the sake of clarity and comparison to prior art. However, the invention is not intended to be limited to these specific terms or dimensions, and it is to be understood that each specific term includes all technical equivalents which operate in a similar manner to accomplish a similar purpose.
- To facilitate understanding of the environment in which mine stoppings are used, and air flow patterns are created, it is believed the following discussion of FIG. 1 will be helpful.
- In FIG. 1 a plurality of mine tunnels or “headings” are represented by numbers11-12-13-14-15. The area at these
numbers 11 thru 15 will constitute the working face of the mine. Extending perpindicular to and intersectingcolumns 11 thru 15 are tunnels represented by rows 16-17-18-19-20. These rows are generally referred to as “crosscuts”. These columns and rows together form a plurality ofPillars 21. As shown byarrows 22 intake air is introduced into thenumber 11 column and is kept innumber 11 bypermanent stoppings 23 andtemporary Curtain 24. Theair 26 is guided across the working face bytemporary curtains 25. Here it picks up explosive gasses and dust then exits by way of column or headingnumber 15. This gaseousladen air 27 is kept in heading 15 byCurtain 24 andstoppings 23.Curtains 24 are temporary devices used to control the flow of air close by the working face permitting workers and equipment to pass thru freely. As the mine advances the next crosscut will be completed opening up another row. When this happenscurtains 25 will be moved up to the next row of pillars.Curtains 24 will be moved up to row 16 andpermanent stoppings 23 will replacecurtains 24. This cycle keeps the integrity of the ventillation system - Another point that can be seen in FIG. 1 is the distance from the end of the
track 28 to the construction site ofstoppings 24 as discussed in prior art. - Stoppings must provide the equivalent critical properties to that of concrete blocks as defined by 30 cfr part 75.333 with respect to durability, noncombustibility and surface flammability;
- 1—one hour fire resistance as described in astm 119-88
- 2—traverse load strength as described in astm E72-80
- 3—flame spread index of less than 25 as described in astm E162.
- The following description of the block of this invention will be referred to FIGS.2 thru 6. The block of this invention could be 8 feet long FIG. 2-A, 18 inches in height FIG. 5-B, and 6 inches in depth FIG. 6-C. The weight of this block could be as little as 10 pounds. This one block could replace 13.5 concrete blocks that weigh a combined weight of 540 pounds. This block will be made of a light weight foaming material such as but not limited to polyurethane foam. Said block will have a tongue on top 33 and a groove on bottom 35. One end of block will have a
tongue 32 and the opposing end will have agroove 34. This configuration allows each block of a stopping wall to inter-connect with all adjacent blocks both vertically and horizontally. - A plurality of these blocks will be used to construct a stopping wall FIG. 8. The stopping wall is constructed in the following manner. The
first block 37 of the bottom row is placed against thepillar wall 29. The remaining blocks of this row are placed end to end withtongues engaging grooves 32 & 34 across the opening to the opposite pillar wall. FIG. 7 is a top view of a row of blocks showing tongues and grooves connecting. The second row is started by placing ½block 38 against pillar wall and on top ofblock 37. Thebottom groove 35 in the blocks of the second row engage thetongue 33 of the blocks of the first row. By starting the second row with ½ block insures thevertical joints 40 will be staggered. The second row is completed in the same manner as bottom row. The remaining rows are done in the same manner until the wall reaches the roof of the room. Upon completion the stopping is coated with afireproof sealant 36 on both sides. This sealant will also be used to seal any gaps around the perimeter of the stopping and bind the stopping wall to the walls, roof, and floor. Sandvik MTA, SMS, or Cisco Rediseal are only 3 of the many sealants that may be used. - Accordingly, it can be seen that the present invention provides a light weight block that is easily transported and assembled to construct a stopping wall that will withstand convergent loads without failure and permit effective ventillation to the mine face.
- Although the description above contains many specificities, these should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention but as merely providing illustrations of some of the presently preferred embodiments of this invention. Various other embodiments and ramifications are possible within it's scope. For example, blocks of this invention could be cast in one piece or could be assembled by using a plurality of flat sheets. A stopping wall could be constructed with blocks in a vertical posture rather than the horizontal posture of the preferred embodiment. It is seen that variations and changes may be made by those skilled in the art without departure from the spirit of the invention.
- Thus the scope of the invention should be determined by the appended claims and their legal equivalents, rather than by the examples given.
