英文摘要：

According to the different geological conditions of the ultra thick hard seam, four mining methods suitable for ultra thick hard seam were comprised and analyzed. The paper introduced the comprehensive weakening coal body technology suitable for the ultra thick hard seam mining and the rapid driving technology and equipment of the large cross section gateway in order to meet the production re- quirements of the fully-mechanized coal mining.The difficult problems of the ultra thick hard seam mining were solved and the production integration and mechanization degree were improved.Finally, according to the disaster problems faced to the fully-mechanized coal mining face in the ultra thick hard seam, the paper provided the comprehensive safety ensuring technology and put forward the key study point and development tendency to ultra thick hard seam mining.
