Virtual Simulation Analysis of Rigid-Flexible Coupling Dynamics of Shearer with Clearance by Hongyue Chen, Kun Zhang, Mingbo Piao, Xin Wang, Jun Mao, Qiushuang Song

“…Results of the analysis demonstrate that the vertical cutting force on the roller serves to reduce the load on the plane support plates during shearer cutting, and the force on the right plane support plate is considerably smaller compared to that on the left plane support plate along the direction of motion of the shearer. Owing to action of the roller-traction load, loads acting on the two guiding support plates increase significantly along the direction of shearer motion. …”
