Description

FIELD

The subject matter herein generally relates to grinding devices for use in mines, and more particularly to a 3D-slanted roll crusher for grinding coal and similar materials.

BACKGROUND

Current equipment used for grinding coal and other materials generally use a roll crusher having two grinders. Common roll crushers using two grinders have the two grinders arranged parallel to each other and configured to rotate in opposite directions to grind large pieces of material not capable of falling through a gap between the two grinders.

Therefore, because the two grinders are arranged parallel to each other, filtering is only done along one plane, long pieces of material are easy to slip past, and a particle size of the ground material can only be controlled in two dimensions. Thus, efficiency is limited. Because a large area of space for outputting the ground material is taken up by the two grinders, an efficiency of filtering the ground material is not high. Thus, the material is easy to jam. Because the two grinders use cutting devices, a size of the material to be ground is limited by a size of the cutting devices of the two grinders, which results in a small grinding size.

In view of the description above, the present disclosure provides a 3D slanted grinding device having large grinding size and a high grinding efficiency.

To realize the purpose of the present disclosure, the present disclosure uses the embodiment as described below.

A 3D-slanted grinding device includes a housing, a plurality of driving devices mounted to the housing, a base mounted to an end of the housing away from the driving devices, a plurality of groups of grinders, a plurality of grinding teeth mounted on each of the grinders, and a plurality of material obstructing bodies mounted on an inner wall of the housing. The grinders correspond to the driving members one-to-one.

Each grinder is connected to the base and the corresponding driving device. The grinders are spaced equally apart within the housing around a central axis of the housing and slantedly mounted on the base facing the driving device.

The 3D-slanted grinding device of the present embodiment uses the housing cooperatively arranged with the grinders.

FIGS. 1-7 show an exemplary embodiment of a 3D-slanted roll crusher for grinding coal and similar materials. The 3D-slanted roll crusher includes a housing 10, three driving devices 20 mounted to the housing 10, a base 30 located at an end of the housing 10 away from the driving devices 20, three groups of grinders 40, a plurality of grinding teeth mounted to each grinder 40, a plurality of material obstructing bodies 60 mounted to an inner wall of the housing 10, and a plurality of material obstructing teeth 70 mounted to the material obstructing bodies 60. Each grinder 40 is connected to the base 30 and a corresponding one of the driving devices 20. The grinders 40 are spaced equally apart within the housing 10 around a central axis of the housing 10 and are slantedly mounted on the base 30 facing the driving devices 20. In detail, the grinders 40 surrounding the central axis of the housing 10 and slantedly mounted on the base 30 facing the driving members 20 are mounted in a same slanted direction (clockwise-slanted orientation or counterclockwise-slanted orientation).

With reference to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the housing 10 is a hollow circular column. An outer wall of a top of the housing 10 includes three spaced apart mounting steps 15. In detail, each mounting step 15 surrounds the axis of the housing 10 and are spaced 120 degrees apart from each other. In the present embodiment, the housing 10 is made of three identical arcuate pieces having an arc of 120 degrees for convenient manufacturing. Each mounting step 15 is located on a corresponding one of the arcuate pieces. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the housing 10 can be integrally formed. An inner side of the mounting step 15 of the housing 10 mounts a top portion bearing component 19 for mounting the corresponding grinder 40.

Each driving device 20 is mounted on the corresponding mounting step 15 of the housing 10. The driving device 20 includes a motor 21, a speed reducer 22, and a shaft coupler (not shown). Each driving device 20 is connected to the corresponding grinder 40 to drive the grinder 40 to rotate.

With reference to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the base 30 is located at an end of the housing 10 away from the driving devices 20. The base 30 of the present disclosure is located at a bottom end of the housing 10. The base 30 is annular. A middle portion of the base 30 is hollowed out to allow ground up material to fall through. The base 30 has mounted thereon three bottom bearing groups (not labeled) each mounting a corresponding one of the grinders 40. A bottom portion of the base 30 can have a tray according to requirements, and a top surface can have adhered thereto an anti-wear plate to ensure stiffness and wear-resistance of the base 30.

The grinders 40 are mounted as longitudinal cylinders and include a first end portion 41 and a second end portion 42. In the present embodiment, the first end portion 41 is a top end of the grinder 40, and the second end portion 42 is a bottom end of the grinder 40. The first end portion 41 includes connecting teeth 410 to connect to a corresponding one of the driving devices 20. A portion of the first end portion 41 located below the connecting teeth 410 includes a step portion 415 to mount the bearing component 19. The second end portion 42 includes a step portion 420 to connect to the bottom bearing group.

With reference to FIGS. 5-7, the grinders 40 surrounding the central axis of the housing 10 and slantedly mounted on the base 30 facing the driving members 20 are mounted in a clockwise-slanted orientation or in a counterclockwise-slanted orientation. A distance between a center of a top of the first end portion 41 of each grinder 40 and a central axis of the housing 10 is greater than a distance between a center of a bottom of the second end portion 42 and the central axis of the housing 10. Each grinder 40 is slanted relative to a top surface of the base 30. A slanted angle between an axis of each grinder 40 and the base 30 is the same. In detail, an angle of a projection of the axis of each grinder 40 on the base 30 is defined as P. A range of P is 34-86 degrees, preferably 54 degrees. An angle defined between a perpendicular line between the center of the top of the first end portion 41 of each grinder 40 and the central axis of the housing 10 and a perpendicular line between the center of the bottom of the second end portion 42 of each grinder 40 and the central axis of the housing 10 is defined as Q. A range of Q is 63-153 degrees, preferably 103 degrees. The angle Q of each grinder 40 is the same.

In the present disclosure, a distance between the center of the top of the first end portion 41 of each grinder 40 and the central axis of the housing 10 is the same, and a distance between the center of the bottom of the second end portion 42 and the central axis of the housing 10 is the same. The center of the top of the first end portion 41 of each grinder 40 is encompassed by a same circle A, and the centers of the tops of the first end portions 41 of the grinders 40 are equally spaced apart around the central axis of the housing 10. The center of the bottom of the second end portion 42 of each grinder 40 is encompassed by a same circle B, and the centers of the bottoms of the second end portions 42 of the grinders 40 are equally spaced apart around the central axis of the housing 10. A radius of the circle A is greater than a radius of the circle B.

The grinding teeth 50 are shaped as spirals and spaced apart on an outer wall of the grinders 40. A teeth base 45 is mounted on each grinder 40. The grinding teeth 50 are mounted onto the grinders 40 by the teeth base 45. The grinding teeth 50 can be changed when they show signs of wear. In the present disclosure, the grinding teeth 50 are pick-shaped, and a mounting angle is directed outside for suitably grinding material according to requirements.

The material obstructing body 60 is mounted to an inner wall of the housing 10. A quantity of the material obstructing body 60 is three. Each material obstructing body 60 is slanted spiral-shaped and is adjacent to a corresponding one of the grinders 40. Each material obstructing body 60 maintains a predetermined distance from an outer profile of the adjacent grinder 40 to define an annular space, thereby controlling a particle size of ground material. The material obstructing body 60 includes a spiral edge to increase a grinding efficiency. In the present disclosure, the material obstructing body 60 is mounted to the housing 10 by riveting and screwing methods. The material obstructing teeth 70 are mounted spaced apart on an inner wall of the material obstructing body 60 to assist the grinders 40 in grinding material, thereby maintaining a particle size and grinding effect.

In operation, the 3D-slanted roll crusher of the present disclosure is used in a standing position, and the grinders 40 are arranged in a helical fashion within the housing 10. The driving devices 20 drive the grinders 40 to rotate, thereby driving the grinding teeth 50 to grind material inserted into the housing 10.

In the 3D-slanted roll crusher of the present disclosure, because the space of the grinders is arranged in a helical fashion, the grinders minimally obstruct the material, therefore filtering and grinding processes are carried out utilizing the entire length of the roll crusher, having less accumulation of the material. Also, because the material is moved along an arcuate path, long pieces of material are prevented from slipping through by the grinding action of the grinding teeth, and the particle size of the ground material is controlled in 3D space. The grinders arranged in a helical fashion approximate a cone-shaped material feed space, and feed material size is not limited by the grinding teeth to achieve a greater ratio of reduction.

The 3D-slanted roll crusher as described above has a high ratio of reduction, high filtering efficiency, high processing ability, and 3D grinding characteristics to enhance grinding efficiency and grinding quality.

It should be understood that the quantity of the grinders of the 3D-slanted roll crusher is not limited to three. The quantity of the grinders can also be four, five, etc. as long as there are at least three. The quantity of the driving devices is the same as the quantity of the grinders and correspond one-to-one. The grinders surround the central axis of the housing and are equally spaced apart within the housing and can achieve 3D grinding and high grinding efficiency.

The embodiments shown and described above are only examples. Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present technology have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the present disclosure, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in the detail, including in matters of shape, size and arrangement of the parts within the principles of the present disclosure up to, and including, the full extent established by the broad general meaning of the terms used in the claims.
