Abstract
A laser transmitter is suspended from spads set in the ceiling of the mining tunnel to establish a visible light beam aligned with the desired directional heading of the tunnel. In a first embodiment, the laser transmitter is attached to a bar suspended by means of cables from the spads. In a second embodiment, the laser transmitter assembly is suspended by means of adjustable ball chains, and includes a slide plate for moving the housing in directions transverse to the light beam. The method and apparatus is usable with existing tunnel operations having spads already in place.
