Endless rope railways have heretofore been widely utilized for haulage of ore or broken stone in many mines but the method was considered suitable only for short distances of about 1 kilometer or less.The writer, at the Okutama Limestone Quarry under his management, has installed an endlessrope- traction railroad of five-kilometer length for efficient haulage of large quantities of crushed limestone. This system was adopted in order to avoid the huge construction costs that would have been entailed had normal railroad been constructed over the craggy mountainous topography of the projected route.Construction costs were about half that of a regular narrow gauge railway, while after several years of operation it has been found that the running expenses come to less than half those of a railway line.(Improvement Features)A completely automatic cable clip was devised, permitting a rope speed more than double that of ordinary endless rope railway.In designing and selecting the route, deflections were possibly avoided and curve radii were kept at more than 200m. Grade is downward throughout the entire line and at the point of change of grade vertical curve of large radius were used, thus permitting extremely smooth coursing and rotation of rope for efficient high-speed operation with surprisingly low consumption of power.

An experiment to break or weaken rocks by micro wave was performed. The output power of the micro wave has 20-80kW with 915MHz, which was applied in order to generate thermal stress in some kinds of rocks and concrete owing to temperature increase in the rocks according to the principle of “Dielectric Heating”en, the followings were obtained within this experiment.1) The temperature increase is approximately in proportion to the output power.2) The temperature increase is approximately in inverse proportion to the distance between aperture face of electric/magnetic horn and rock surface.3) The temperature increase becomes higher as aperture area of micro wave horn is smaller in constant output power.4) Main factor to crush the rock specimen by heating is to generate the thermal stress by rock heating.5) The rock with hither water content tends to have higher temperature increase in same rock tvne.6) The penetration depth of applied micro wave depends on dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the material.

There has been a rapid increase of interest to unconventional methods of fracturing rocks.Particularly, mechanics of thermal fracture, either by the application of direct heat or electrothermal conversion, are most favourable for practice.In this paper, the authors reported their experiments to measure the strength changes of rocks heated to high temperatures and the thermal fracture.From the experiments, several fracturing mechanisms of rocks heated to high temperatures were found. Which are;a) Thermal elastic stresses induced in rock.b) Transformation of crystal form of the constituting minerals of rock.c) Decomposition of the constituting minerals.d) Melting.e) Thermal expansion of the constituting minerals.f) Others.Neverthless these mechanisms are all affecting to thermal fracturing of rock, one of them is a dominant factor to fracture a particular kind of rock by heat, for example b) to granite and c) to limestone.

It is well known that rocks are more or less deteriorated by sudden cooling after being heated. Furthermore, by repeating the cycle of heating-cooling, rocks might be expected to be weakened more severely.In this paper, measuring the changes of the physical and mechanical properties of rocks including apparent specific gravity, P-wave velocity, Young's modulus and uniaxial compressive strength, the thermal fatigue process of rocks is characterized for four kinds of rocks, namely, OGINO tuff, EMOCHI welded tuff, AKIYOSHI marble and INADA granite. The cylindrical specimens are suddenly submerged into water after being heated and the cycle is automatically repeated in the testing machine.The maximum temperature and the maximum cycles in the experiment are 600°C and 54, respectively.The main results obtained are as follows:(1) The main failure mechanism is different between the crystalline rock and the sedimentary rock. The failure of the former takes place by the thermal interaction between minerals and that of the latter by the transient thermal stresses. As the result, crystalline rocks collapse to be particles or powders and sedimentary rocks are fractured initiating regular thermal cracks (Fig.6).(2) The strengths of the rocks except welded tuff decrease remarkably within 5 cycles if the temperature is sufficiently high and the cooling time is larger enough (Fig.3).(3) The strengths of the rocks except marble decrease as the cooling time increases. However, the additional effect is very small if the cooling time is larger than that needed for the specimens to be perfectly cooled (Fig.4).(4) The cycles at which the specimens collapse exponentially increase as the temperature decreases (Fig.5).

Chikubetu coal mine situated in Hokkaido, their area are about 3, 000 hectares, estimated available reserves about 43, 000, 000t, in which about 2, 900, 000t mined out.The largest difficulty we met on the rationalization process was how to deal with the mudstone, which we found under side of coal seam. This mudstone containes a lot of bentonite and very brittle.At the same time, it absorbs water very easily and increases itself.Therefore, it was very difficult to maintain the gallery, which was excarvated in this rock seam. As the first adequate measure for that, we excarvated the transportation gallery in the other harder floor rock, and we adopted the so called“Pocket mining system”.As above mentioned, our suitable measure for the brittle and absorbable mudstone rock seam led us to The mechanization in face and rationalization of the transportation system, and we could get the large output of coal in face.Well, we will describe this rationalization process in more detail as follows ; after we succeeded the“Kappe mining system”, we excarvated the great transportation cross cut as the first step to rationalization of Transportation system.(“Kappe mining system”is a mining system, in which we use the Kappe-iron beam, iron prop and armed conveyer)Then, as the second step, we tried to concentrate the coal face, rationalize the incline belt shaft and armed conveyer gate road. After that, we adopted the so called“slicing mining system”as we see it today.The great effects of rationalization were increase of output per man shift, and decrease of mining cost.The output per man shift became 7 times larger than before, total coal output 10 times, mining cost became 13 times.Without adaptation of any new machine and special mining method, we got these good effects by only effective using of our machines and installations.Now we think, our rationalization process till now was the only first step. And we must try to develop the new mining technic as the second step of our rationalization.We believe that, on the base of our above mentioned rationalization, we can develop the new mining Technic in our coal mine, for instance, adaptation of hydraulic prop, hyaraulic transportation of coal, new Technic of shaft sinking etc.Well, we got also good results of safety in coal mine, and this owed to the improvement of our technic and rationalization, we think.We mentioned above only the rationalization of technic, but we must stress here finally the adequateness of our labour management was the important element to the good reconstraction of our coal mine, which was ever facining a terrible crisis.
