Mine hoist wire rope overload, tension imbalance, tension difference exceeding the limit and counterweight imbalance and other accident potential problems occur from time to time, which is difficult to find in time and triggers major accidents such as rope slipping, rope skipping and even rope breaking and tank falling. Through the research of mining hoist wire rope tension monitoring system, it is important to realize the online monitoring of hoist wire rope tension data and monitor the operation and load status of hoist, which is important for the safety and stable operation of mine hoist. The mine hoist wire rope tension monitoring system is mainly composed of signal collecting and transmitting device, signal receiver, pressure sensor, receiving box, mining explosion-proof battery pack, tank road wheel power extraction device and upper computer software. Practice showed that the system can monitor the change of wire rope tension in real time and improve the efficiency, reliability and safety of the mine hoist.
