ABSTRACT:
A roof support for a mine gallery which extends at a relatively large angle to the horizontal comprises an upper, a middle and a lower roof support unit arranged adjacent each other and having each a pair of elongated transversely spaced skids rigidly connected by bridges to each other and engaging the sole of the inclined mine gallery. An abutment beam likewise engaging the sole is arranged inclined to the elongation of the skids adjacent to the face of the gallery to be mined and connected to the skids of the middle roof support unit by a pair of flat sole plates rigid with the beam and tiltable about horizontal axes with respect to the skids, whereas the upper and the lower roof support unit are connected to the beam by flat elongated sole engaging end members connected to the beam pivotable about vertical pivot axes. In this way ample space is provided beneath the roof of the mine gallery between the beam and the roof support units to permit mining of coal seams of small height. The upper and the lower roof support units include elongated guide members in which advancing cylinder and piston units are located, and a pair of directing cylinder and piston units connect the elongated end members of the upper and lower roof supporting units with the adjacent sole plates of the middle unit.
