Research On Parametric Design Of Matching Size Of Mechanized Working Face Equipments And Kinematic Simulation Based On UG

It is the "three machines" geometry size matching design in the mining face that ensures matching size between shearer, hydraulic powered support and scraper conveyor. Only when these three kinds of equipment completely agree with each other, does it make sure no interference when equipments work, and can maximize the efficiency of the machinery. At present, the equipments of fully mechanized mining face match mostly use two-dimension matching chart, it would neither reflect visually and intuitively the mechanized mining face matching situation nor modify dynamically and solve fit-up inspection, interference detection as well as motion simulation in matching situation. For this reason, we create 3D model. The mechanized mining face equipments assembly 3D model not only reflect directly and comprehensives the matching relations between them, but also establish the follow-up finite-element analysis using 3D model, it provides a more effective method for the research of the mining face equipments. With the development of the computer, designers have developed new method of parametric design based on the 3D model. Designer can avoid repetitive model by using the parameterization design, who can utilize updated model to research 3D assemblage, interface check, limited meta-analysis, and dynamic simulation. As a result, it improves the quality of the design and shortens the period of the design. The equipment of this paper researched looks and structures are almost the same and will not change dramatically. It is necessary to do further development based on UG software in order to avoid repeating creation of model, accomplish parametric design of equipment characteristics. Parameterization model can be changed according to design parameters which were given by user, in this way, the work efficiency promotes greatly.Based on the background, the parameterization model of shearer, hydraulic powered support and scraper conveyor are built on the platform UG by using the VC++6.0 object-oriented programming technique, create various parts menu using Menu Script and dialog box using UG/Open UIStyler. Ultimately, create parametric design system of matching size of mechanized working face equipments. Designer get renewal equipment's 3D model when modify directly the design parameters, and then the mechanized mining face equipments assembly 3D model will be update, meanwhile, the system reduces equipments in fully mechanized mining face matching time. The system has the features: simple interface, easy to use, favorable man-machine conversation and so on.At last, motion simulation for 3Dmodel of "three machines" by UG/MOTION, it visually shows the motion process of mechanized working face equipments, realizes component interference checking and measurement in the process of movement, and tests the rationality and feasibility of matching.
