The main aim of this paper is the description of experimental operation of new bucket in real conditions of the open pit mine and the evaluation of surface temperature increasing in the case of new bucket application. The experiment was realised in two excavators KU 300 operated in the same mining conditions. The target of this experiment is the bucket surface temperature increasing evaluation and the verification of new bucket tooth geometry with tooth ESCO U35T possibilities in comparison with original variety. ...

The expense of restoring of excavators cutting bodies is increasing these days in the Most Basin area, primarily the replacement of tooth because of abrasion expense. The main reason is the complicated geological situation of overburden rocks, first of all the occurrence of sands and hard structures in the overburden cuts rocks in the deep horizons of open pit mines. The main target of this article is the brief description of realised research. It is design of the optimum methodology of bucket tooth cutting body h...

The Brown Coal Research Institute started the solving of the research project based on the optimisation of the shape and material of ground and mining machines in 2018. This research is necessary for increasing of efficiency of mining process in conditions of the Most Basin. The very important part of the research was the geological characteristic of the Most Basin main mining localities. Evaluation of the geological situation of the Bilina, Vrsany and Libous mines (mining of the overburden rocks in the CSA mine f...

The solving of the project of the Czech Republic Technology Agency TACR dedicated to microbial methane genesis in geological conditions of the Czech coal basins is under way from 2018. The target of the project is clean methodology of coal. The main attention of the 2018 research was devoted to the geological research of the brown and hard coal basins and to the selection of the optimum localities for sampling. This paper briefly summarises the geological situation of coal basins, stratigraphy of different coal se...

The solving of European Commission (Research Fund for Coal and Steel) research project пїЅBucket wheel excavators operating under difficult mining conditions including unmineable inclusions and geological structures with excessive mining resistanceпїЅ is under way from 2015 to 2018. The Brown Coal Research Institute j.s.c. is a member of the research team comprising Czech, Polish, Romanian and Greek technical universities and companies. The main task of the year 2016 was the realisation of the three long term meas...

In the Czech Republic, the production of energy using fossil fuels - particularly coal - is still a major proportion of total production. The energy sector is and will remain one of the most important areas of the Czech economy, ensuring supply of electricity and heat to the population and industrial enterprises. In the power and heating plants is burned primarily domestic brown coal mined in opencast mines in the north-western part of the Czech Republic, namely, Usti Region. For combustion of biomass in the Czech...
