What kind of labor protection supplies should underground personnel be equipped with?

Working in coal mines is highly dangerous, so employers are required to be alert and guard against all safety hazards. To ensure production safety, workers entering wells must strictly wear protective equipment. Let us talk about what items coal miners must wear when entering wells.

Items worn by coal mine workers - miner's lamp

Miner's lamp is a lighting tool that miners must carry and is called the "eyes" of miners. There are many types of miner's lamps, including hand lamps and headlamps (or hat lamps). Headlamps are most convenient for miners working underground. "Regulations" stipulates: "Miner's lamps should be able to be used continuously for at least 11 hours."

Items worn by coal mine workers entering the mine - miner's lamp

After receiving the miner's lamp from the lamp room, personnel entering the mine should conduct the following inspections :

(1) Whether there is a safety mark "ma" and a unified number on the battery box.

(2) Whether the battery box is cracked or the ventilation cover is leaking.

(3) Whether the lamp cord is damaged, whether the connection between the lamp cord, battery and lamp holder is firm, whether the inlet and outlet seals at both ends of the lamp cord are intact, and the length of the lamp cord should be more than 1m.

(4) Whether the lamp holder ring is loose, whether the lamp holder shell is damaged, and whether the lamp surface glass is broken.

(5) The switch on the lamp holder is intact and reliable.

(6) Whether the light lock is locked tightly or loose.

(7) Whether the light is bright.

Items worn by coal mine workers - mining hats

That is, safety helmets worn by miners and underground engineers to protect their heads, shallow dome hats made of steel or similar materials. There is a frame with a miner's lamp at the front end, and a button for fixing the miner's lamp cord at the back end. Mining safety helmets should have properties such as flame retardant, antistatic, impact resistance, electrical insulation, heat resistance and chemical corrosion resistance.

Before wearing, check whether the accessories of the helmet are damaged, whether the assembly is firm, whether the adjustment part of the helmet lining is clamped, whether the socket is firm, whether the rope is tight, etc. If the distance between the cap lining and the cap shell is not between 25 and 50 mm, the top rope should be used to adjust to the specified range. Make sure all parts are intact before use.

Items worn by coal mine workers - anti-static clothing

In coal mine safety production, individual anti-static issues of coal miners should be included in the scope of coal mine explosion prevention management. Therefore, equipping underground workers with anti-static clothing is currently a must-implemented task for safe production in coal mines in my country.

Items worn by coal mine workers - anti-static clothing

Mining work clothes are generally made of thick cotton canvas, and the color is dark blue made of reactive dyes. This kind of fabric is strong and wear-resistant, soft and comfortable, moisture-absorbent and breathable, and has a particularly good safety protection effect. In addition, it can also be processed into various high-grade anti-static cotton work clothes (because static electricity is easily generated due to low underground humidity), which can be adapted to general working environments and working environments with special requirements. Finally, we must pay attention to never wear ordinary chemical fiber work clothes to avoid static electricity.

Items worn by coal mine workers - self-rescuers

Self-rescuers are used when fire, gas and coal dust explosions happen underground. When coal and gas burst out, personnel entering the well carry a respiratory protective equipment to prevent poisoning by harmful gases or suffocation due to lack of oxygen. The self-rescuer is a small and lightweight device for protecting personal respiratory organs. The main purpose is that when an accident occurs in a coal mine, miners can wear it to quickly leave the disaster area through tunnels filled with harmful gases.

Notes:

1. When wearing a self-rescuer to evacuate a disaster area, be sure to bite and tighten the mouth and nose clip, and never take off the mouth and nose clip midway.

2. The oxygen produced by the oxygen generator is higher than the ambient air temperature, but it is harmless to the human body.

3. Do not compress the air bag when wearing it to avoid damage and air leakage.

4. Wearing a self-rescuer requires accurate and rapid operation. Users must be trained in advance and pass the exam before they can be equipped.

The above is the relevant introduction about the items that coal miners must wear when entering the mine. I hope it will be helpful to you.
