AN EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN FOR SAVING WORKERS FROM MINING INDUSTRY

Abstract

A mining helmet must be modified to enhance miner safety with the addition of intelligence towards the helmet. Whenever a miner removes his helmet he must be cautioned. If the object falls on the miner even if putting on his helmet he is able to become unconscious or immobile. The security helmets have no technology put into it to allow miners know whenever a fellow miner has experienced a dangerous event. real critical issue in mines is hazardous gases. Systems utilized in a mine can make intense vibrations while increasing the amount of hazardous gases for example CO, SO2, NO2 and particulate matter. The machine includes six components, helmet remove sensor, collision sensor, and quality of air sensor, information systems unit, wireless transmission and alerting unit. Concerning the power of CO: healthy people can tolerate a CO level as high as 6 parts per million without serious health effects, however it ought to always be stored below 4 parts per million. Mesh structures are utilized when one node must communicate information to the rest of the nodes, but is within achieve only of numerous nodes. Mesh network configuration can also be good because it makes multiple pathways to every node. The benefit and drawback to the ZigBee communication was reported. A couple of facets of the machine could be improved. Adding an exterior antenna would extend the number or enhance the signal strength to be able to permit more human interference. The space may still wish to be limited as it might be impractical to warn miners which are too much away to obtain the miner who's experiencing a dangerous event.
