In the current coal mining,safety management is still one of the main work of mining enterprises,combined with the value of hoisting machine in the inclined shaft transport,need to refer to the impact of the wire rope loose rope failure actively do a good job of fault handling.How to effectively enhance the safety of hoisting machine in inclined shaft transport has also become a problem that many mining enterprises need to consider.Based on this,the working principle of the hoist is described,the causes of loose rope faults are specifically analysed,and the prevention of loose rope faults is carried out from the aspects of wire rope discharge,braking and deceleration,anti-loosening early warning,and maintenance of the wire rope.After dealing with the loose rope failure and running test,the active protection and early warning function can prevent the wire rope from loosening,which is conducive to promoting mining enterprises to achieve healthy development.
