Abstract

See full text

A self-advancing support, suitable for use in mines, includes a cantilever which is extendible and retractable with respect to a main portion of the support, and a sprag which is so mounted on said cantilever as to be extendible and retractable with respect thereto. Means are provided for advancing the support with respect to a mineral face and further means are provided for ensuring that during advance of the support the sprag is maintained in an extended, mineral-face-engaging, condition while the main portion is moved with respect to the cantilever in the direction towards the face, thereby reducing cantilever extension.
