A high-precision positioning system for a monorail hoist in a mine includes two gear carriers symmetrically arranged on both sides of an I-beam track. Each of the gear carriers includes a positioning wheel and a plurality of travelling wheels. The travelling wheels are travelling on an upper end face of a bottom plate of the I-beam track, and the positioning wheel is in engagement transmission with a rack at a lower end of the bottom plate of the I-beam track. The gear carriers include an installation bracket and a connecting seat configured to connect the monorail hoist. The installation bracket includes an inertial measuring unit and a single-chip microcomputer that are electrically connected with each other. The positioning wheel includes a rotation angle sensor and the rotation angle sensor is electrically connected to the single-chip microcomputer. A headstock at both ends of the monorail hoist includes a coordinate updating unit.

A method for drivable area detection and autonomous obstacle avoidance of unmanned haulage equipment in deep confined spaces is disclosed, which includes the following steps: acquiring 3D point cloud data of a roadway; computing a 2D image drivable area of the coal mine roadway; acquiring a 3D point cloud drivable area of the coal mine roadway; establishing a 2D grid map and a risk map, and performing autonomous obstacle avoidance path planning by using a particle swarm path planning method designed for deep confined roadways; and acquiring an optimal end point to be selected of a driving path by using a greedy strategy, and enabling an unmanned auxiliary haulage vehicle to drive according to the optimal end point and an optimal path. Images of a coal mine roadway are acquired actively by use of a single-camera sensor device.

A gear-track-detachable driving device in a monorail crane for a steep slope includes a driving mechanism, a traveling mechanism, a four-bar linkage mechanism, a connection mechanism, a meshing track plate and transition track plates. The driving mechanism includes driving motors, meshing gears, a bearing rod, and a bearing plate. The traveling mechanism includes traveling wheels, clamping wheels, a shell and telescopic struts. The linkage mechanism includes first and second rockers, a linkage, and a cylinder. The connection mechanism includes fixation plates, a connection plate and connection bolts. When the crane travels to the slope front, the cylinder drives the linkage mechanism to send the meshing gears onto the transition track and adjusts the linkage mechanism into a dead point state, and the telescopic struts are locked. After the crane enters the slope, the meshing gears cooperate with the meshing track plate to provide an auxiliary drive for the crane.
