In one aspect, a track structure usable by a wheeled vehicle for hauling a payload up an inclined enclosed passageway comprises a hollow rigid center rail member configured to act as both a center rail for the wheeled vehicle and as a ventilation duct. Opposite lateral faces of the hollow center rail member have respective wheel contact surfaces grippable by an opposed pair of inwardly-biased drive wheels of the wheeled vehicle. Rail support structure depends from the hollow center rail member. An elevated pair of rails is attached to the rail support structure, the rails being on opposite sides of and substantially parallel to the hollow center rail member. Each rail is supported by the rail support structure so as to provide an upper, lower, and lateral surface suitable for rolling engagement by a weight-bearing wheel, undermount wheel, and guide wheel, respectively, of the wheeled vehicle.

A collaborative erosion-control method of releasing-splitting-supporting based on coal mass pressure relief and roof pre-splitting provided by the disclosure includes the following steps: step 1, driving into a coal seam to release pressure; step 2, low roof pre-splitting during driving process; step 3, supporting of roadway surrounding rock and support reinforcement; step 4, floor destressing of the roadway; step 5, high roof pre-splitting before mining; step 6, distress sing and supporting of the advanced roadway surrounding rock during the mining process of the working face. The collaborative erosion-control method of releasing-splitting-supporting based on coal mass pressure relief and roof pre-splitting, and to carry out local pressure relief, roof pre-splitting and reinforcement support construction in the whole cycle of the coal working face in a progressive manner, so as to achieve the prevention and control of rock burst in the working face.

Provided is a method for radially mining open-pit end slope pressed coal, including: L-shaped or U-shaped main tunnel arrangements, and radially mining; branch tunnels are formed by excavating tunnels in directions perpendicular to or obliquely crossing the main tunnel from the L-shaped or U-shaped main tunnel; In the mining method, a coal mining system and a transportation system both adopt a remote control mode, a tunneling machine excavates a tunnel to product coal; a rubber belt conveyor conveys coal; the main tunnel adopts an exhaust ventilation mode, the branch tunnels adopt a blowing ventilation mode; the lengths of the branch tunnels do not exceed a farthest control distance of a remote control system; the length of each main tunnel needs to ensure that all the end slope pressed coal is mined under the premise that the branch tunnels do not exceed the farthest control distance of the remote control system.

Combination of an open and a hidden excavation for constructing a vertical orthogonal top exhausting air duct structure of a deeply-buried subway station is provided. Four horizontal air ducts: left and right piston air ducts, an exhaust air duct, and a fresh air duct are thrown out of the underground, respectively, leading to left and right piston air shafts, an exhaust air shaft, a fresh air shaft, and an entrance/exit of fire-fighting. The fourth underground floor is communicated with the hall floor of the station main body, and the fifth underground floor is communicated with the running tunnel and the platform floor of the station main body. During operation, the train will enter and exit the station through the fifth underground floor of the air duct, and the piston air and heat will enter the four transverse air ducts through the air duct main body.
