Układ do pomiaru przemieszczeń poziomych skał stropowych

 

TITLE  System and method of measuring horizontal displacements of roof rocks
DESCRIPTION OF THE SOLUTION A system for measuring the displacement of rock layers in mine workings, in particular for measuring the horizontal displacement of roof rock, comprising: at least one sensor; a data logger having means for wireless communication and configured for two-way communication with one or more sensors; a mine information system connected by cable to one or more loggers
BENEFITS OF THE SOLUTION

Possibility of measuring roof rock displacements (especially horizontal displacements, as well as detecting even very slow movements of rock layers). 
Increasing the safety of the mining crew working underground (by enabling better detection of changes occurring around underground mine workings).

AREA OF APPLICATION Mining (roof monitoring)
TECHNOLOGICAL READINESS LEVEL 9
