Abstract
A mining plough for plough systems for the exploiting of minerals in inclined formations. In order to provide a mining plough and a plough system, with which coal seams, in particular seams in steep formation can be exploited economically and with high operating safety, the mining plough includes a separable plough body having two plough body basic elements each being provided with a fixture for a separate traction means and with a guide means for moving the coal plough by means of at least two traction means and for guiding the coal plough on at least two mutually spaced guide mechanisms.

A mining plough for plough systems for the working of minerals in inclined formation, in particular for the working of coal seams in steep formation, the mining plough comprising:
- a separable plough body having two plough body basic elements, each plough body basic element being provided with a fixture for a separate traction chain and with one or more slide runners, for moving the coal plough by way of the traction chains, and for guiding the plough body by way of the slide runners on at least two mutually spaced associated guide bars.
A plough system for the working of minerals in inclined formation, in particular for the working of coal seams in steep formation, having a mining plough, having at least one fraction means for the movement of the mining plough along a coal face, and having a guide mechanism, which is placed or placeable along a coal face and on which the mining plough is forcibly guided by means of guide means, the mining plough has a separable plough body having two plough body basic elements, each plough body basic element being provided with a fixture for a separate fraction means and with a guide means, and in that the guide mechanism has two guide bars, which are arranged at a distance apart and substantially at equal distance to the coal face and on which the plough body is forcibly guided with its guide means.
