Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009103309A1] Disclosed is a method for automatically creating a defined face opening in longwall coal mining operations comprising a face conveyor (20), at least one plow (22) that is guided on the face conveyor (20) as an extraction machine, and a hydraulic shield support. In said method, the inclination of the shield components relative to the horizontal line is determined by means of inclination sensors (17) mounted on at least three of the four main components of each shield support frame (10), the shield height of the shield support frame (10) perpendicular to the bed is calculated in a computer unit, the determined shield height is adjusted to the cutting height of the plow (22), and a vertical adjustment of the plow (22) is initiated in order to correct identified differences, said vertical adjustment to be performed by means of a boom controller (26) that is arranged between the shield support frame (10) and the face conveyor (20).
