摘要:The article presents the power dependencies for determining the number of blades of the cutting body of geokhod for destruction of rocks of low hardness. The obtained dependences are based on the developed method of calculation of the blade cutting body of the geokhod. The presented dependences make it possible to choose the rational number of blades of the geokhod cutting body. The intensity of the development of underground space by the countries of the world community, including Russia, is increasing. In this connection, the tasks are to increase the rate of development and to reduce the cost of work.
