The refuge chamber is strategically located underground in the coal mine, equipped with essential facilities and supplies such as equipment, food, and water necessary to sustain human life. It provides a safe haven for miners trapped in hazardous areas, ensuring their survival until rescue operations can be safely carried out. The refuge chamber is integrated with the mine's comprehensive safety systems, including safety monitoring and surveillance, personnel positioning, compressed-air self-rescue mechanisms, emergency water supply, and robust communication networks. Together, these systems create an integrated underground safety and refuge infrastructure, comprising key components such as an explosion-proof sealing system, an oxygen supply system, a communication and personnel-locating network, a monitoring and surveillance system, an environmental control system, an illumination system, and a life-support system.
