A pumpable crib bag may include a body defining a longitudinal axis, at least one reinforcing wire helically extending about the longitudinal axis and along a length of the body, and at least one pocket configured to hold the at least one reinforcing wire therein. The at least one reinforcing wire may include a first material and a second material.

Pumpable crib bag

A pumpable resin system for installation of mine roof bolts includes a resin feed pump in fluid communication with a resin source, a catalyst feed pump in fluid communication with a catalyst source, a resin injection cylinder pump in fluid communication with the resin feed pump, with the resin feed pump configured to transfer resin to the resin injection cylinder pump when the resin feed pump is actuated, a catalyst injection cylinder pump in fluid communication with the catalyst feed pump, the catalyst feed pump configured to transfer catalyst to the catalyst injection cylinder pump when the catalyst feed pump is actuated, a hydraulic piston, with the resin injection cylinder pump and the catalyst injection cylinder pump slaved together and controlled by the hydraulic piston, a resin line in fluid communication with the resin injection cylinder pump, and a catalyst line in fluid communication with the catalyst injection cylinder pump.

Pumpable resin system

A pumpable resin system for installation of mine roof bolts includes a resin feed cylinder pump, a catalyst feed cylinder pump, a resin cylinder pump in fluid communication with the resin feed cylinder, with the resin feed cylinder configured to transfer resin to the resin cylinder pump when the resin feed cylinder pump is actuated, a catalyst cylinder pump in fluid communication with the catalyst feed cylinder, with the catalyst feed cylinder configured to transfer catalyst to the catalyst cylinder pump when the catalyst feed cylinder pump is actuated, a resin line in fluid communication with the resin cylinder pump, and a catalyst line in fluid communication with the catalyst cylinder pump.

Pumpable two component resin

A rock bolt system includes a fitting including a main body defining a central opening configured to receive a rock bolt and a grout body defining a space between the main body and the grout body, with the main body defining a grout opening in fluid communication with the central opening. The main body is rotatable relative to the grout body, with the grout body defining a resin port and a catalyst port. The resin port and the catalyst port are in fluid communication with the space and the grout opening of the main body. The system further includes a rock bolt defining a central opening, with the central opening of the rock bolt configured to be in fluid communication with the central opening of the fitting when the rock bolt is secured to the fitting.

A pumpable resin system for installation of mine roof bolts includes a resin reservoir configured to receive resin, a catalyst reservoir configured to receive catalyst, a resin pump arrangement in fluid communication with the resin reservoir, a catalyst pump arrangement in fluid communication with the catalyst reservoir, a delivery line in fluid communication with at least one of the resin pump arrangement and the catalyst pump arrangement, and a bolter arm configured to drill boreholes and install mine roof bolts. The delivery line is configured to deliver resin and catalyst from the resin reservoir and the catalyst reservoir to a borehole via the bolter arm.

A rock bolt system includes a fitting having a main body defining a central opening configured to receive a rock bolt, with the main body defining a grout opening in fluid communication with the central opening, and a grout body defining a space between the main body and the grout body. The main body is rotatable relative to the grout body, with the grout body defining a resin port and a catalyst port. The resin port and the catalyst port are in fluid communication with the space and the grout opening of the main body. A rock bolt defines a central opening, with the central opening of the rock bolt configured to be in fluid communication with the central opening of the fitting when the rock bolt is secured to the fitting.

The gel time of a grouting system may be controlled by providing a resin component separated by a catalyst component, where a carbon component is included in the catalyst component. The catalyst component may include an inhibitor such as a phenolic compound, and/or the resin component may include a promoter such as an aniline compound.
