Analysis of the Longitudinal-Bending-Torsional Coupled Vibration Mechanism of the Drilling of a Roof Bolter for Mine Support System

Abstract

The condition of the drilling of a roof bolter for mine support system is complex, and the existing analytical approaches for the vibration of the drilling for oil wells cannot be fully applicable to it. In order to reveal the vibration mechanism of bolt drilling, some models for longitudinal, bending, and torsional coupled vibration were established based on the energy method and finite element method. A global matrix was assembled in the order of units. Taking the drilling condition as the boundary conditions, a reduced-order model was constructed. The simulations for drilling mudstone show that the order of mode shape is positively correlated with the corresponding natural frequency, and the low-order mode shape plays a decisive role in the vibration characteristics of a drill string. The order of causing drill string displacement from large to small is as follows: longitudinal vibration, torsional vibration, and bending vibration. Compared with the bit, the displacements of longitudinal and torsional vibration of the tail of the drill string are decreased by 93.2% and 84.7%, respectively. The perturbed force and reaction torque are the main reasons for inducing the coupled vibration of it. This research provides a theoretical basis for analysing the vibration characteristics of the drilling of roof bolters for mine support systems and developing their absorbers.
