Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part

1.Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents". Drafting. This document replaces GB/T 25652-2010 "Design Code for Aerial Ropeways in Underground Mines". Compared with GB/T 25652-2010, except for... Aside from structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows:

a) Some terms and definitions have been changed (see Chapter 3, Chapter 3 of the.2010 edition);

b) The basic classification of cableways has been changed (see 5.1.2,.2010 version of 5.1.2);

c) The model designation method has been changed (see 5.2,.2010 version 5.2);

d) The maximum running speed has been changed (see 6.1.2, version

6.1.2 from.2010);

e) The basic conditions for installing cableways in tunnels have been changed (see 6.2.2,.2010 version of 6.2.2);

f) The requirements for the brakes, cableway operating speed, and the length of the steel beams embedded in the beam-type foundation frame of the drive unit on both sides of the roadway have been changed (see...). Version 6.3.5 (2010 version 6.3.5)

g) The requirements for the carrier cable have been changed (see 6.4.1,.2010 version of 6.4.1);

h) The requirement for the multiple of the tension cable guide wheel diameter to the tension cable diameter has been changed (see 6.4.2,.2010 version of 6.4.2);

i) The requirement for the multiple of the detour wheel diameter to the carrier cable diameter has been changed (see 6.4.3,.2010 version of 6.4.3);

j) The requirements for the distance between the chair hanger's legs and the ground, and the strength of the hanging equipment, have been changed (see 6.5.2,

6.5 in the.2010 edition);

1 Scope

GB/T 25652-2026 is the Chinese national standard covering the ropeway that carries men and material along an underground drift - the rope and its safety factor, the drive and braking, the carriers and the clearances in a confined roadway, and the emergency evacuation of people hanging from it. It replaces GB/T 25652-2010. It was issued on 28 January 2026 and has been in force since 1 August 2026, replacing GB/T 25652-2010. The document is under the responsibility of the China Machinery Industry Federation. This page is published from the official record of the 2026 edition; the clause text of a standard this recent is not yet in circulation, and the figures, limits and tables it contains are those of the document itself, delivered in full with the English translation.

This document specifies the general rules, product classification, basic design requirements, and preparation of design documents for aerial ropeways used in underground mines. This document applies to the design of aerial cableways for underground mining.

Note. The aerial passenger transport device for mining is a type of underground aerial cableway for mining.
