As shown in
The shell 10 is supported on the base 80. The shell 10 includes a cover, a first shell 10a, a second shell 10b which are connected and arranged from top to bottom in the listed sequence, and the first shell and the second shell may also be formed as an integral structure. A feed port 11 is provided in the cover, and a discharge port 12 is provided in the second shell. The main shaft 20 is inserted into the shell 10, and is rotatable in the shell 10, and the main shaft 20 is supported by the base 80. The main shaft 20 has a free end located in the shell 10. The drive device 30 is drivingly connected to the main shaft 20, to drive the main shaft 20 to rotate. The holder 40 is mounted on the main shaft 20, and may rotate synchronously with the main shaft 20. Each of the grinding rollers 50 is mounted on the holder 40 and is rotatable around its own axis, that is, each of the grinding rollers 50 can revolve around a center line of the main shaft 20, and revolve around its own center line. The grinding disk 60 is fixedly mounted in the shell 10, and is arranged opposite to the multiple grinding rollers 50, to cooperate with the grinding rollers 50 to perform the grinding of materials.
As shown in
The technical solution of the first embodiment provides the hydraulic cylinder 70a, thus the main shaft 20 may be driven by the hydraulic cylinder 70a to move axially to adjust the position of the main shaft 20, and the main shaft 20 may further drive the grinding rollers 50 to move along the vertical direction. In this way, a grinding gap between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disk 60 may be conveniently adjusted. The roller mill according to this embodiment has a simple structure, and is convenient to adjust. The adjusted position of the main shaft 20 may be a set position, and may also be a variable position formed by continuous movement or discontinuous movement of the main shaft 20 during the grinding process.
In other embodiments, the axial position adjustment device 70 may also rotate synchronously with the main shaft 20, and in this case, the axial position adjustment device 70 and the main shaft 20 are not required to be movably connected, and may be fixedly connected.

As shown in
In the second embodiment, the piston rod 72 of the hydraulic cylinder 70a can drive the main shaft 20 to move axially, to adjust the main shaft 20 to an appropriate set position, and may further bring the grinding rollers 50 to move along the vertical direction. In this way, a grinding gap between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disk 60 can be conveniently adjusted, or the enlarged gap between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disk 60 caused by wear can be adjusted or compensated. Also, the pressure maintaining of the hydraulic cylinder 70a may apply a working pressure on the grinding rollers 50. When a large uncrushable object such as a tramp iron enters the space between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disk 60, the grinding rollers 50 generate a large axial force, which forces the main shaft 20 to move axially to be away from the set position. The main shaft 20 at this time will compress hydraulic oil in the upper cavity 71a, and the hydraulic oil is pressed into the accumulator 100 in communication with the upper cavity 71a, to compress a gasbag filled with pressurized gas, thus the piston rod 72 is driven to move upward, to further bring the grinding rollers 50 to move upward to increase the gap between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disk 60, to allow the tramp iron or the like to pass. After the tramp iron and the like is discharged, the pressure in the gasbag of the accumulator 100 forces the hydraulic oil to push the piston 73 and the piston rod 72, to apply an axial restoring force on the main shaft 20 which has moved axially away from the set position, to allow the main shaft 20 to return to the set position, and further recover the grinding gap between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disk 60, and the normal operation of grinding materials is continued. If the gap between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disk 60 is adjusted to be small and the thickness of a material layer is great, the grinding rollers 50, the holder 40 and the main shaft 20 may compress the hydraulic oil in the upper cavity 71a according to the thickness of the material layer and the size of particles of the material, to generate an axial movement floating up and down, and the grinding rollers 50 also crush the material under the floating condition. Therefore, the roller mill according to the second embodiment has a simple structure, and can adjust the grinding gap automatically. Preferably, the roller mill according to the second embodiment also includes a spreading disk 90 mounted on the main shaft 20 and moving synchronously with the main shaft 20, and the spreading disk 90 is located above the holder 40.
The operating process of the roller mill according to the second embodiment is described as follows.
When the main shaft 20 is driven by the drive device 30 to rotate, the material to be crushed is fed from the feed port 11 and falls on the spreading disk 90 rotating synchronously with the main shaft 20. The rotating spreading disk 90 distributes the material to the periphery of the first shell to allow the material to fall between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disk 60 mounted on the second shell. A gap is presented between the grinding rollers 50 and the grinding disc 60. Two or more than two grinding rollers 50 mounted on the holder 6 and distributed at the periphery of the holder 6 revolve around the center line of the main shaft 20, and each revolves around its own center line under the action of friction torque, thus when falling from top to bottom, the material is grinded by the grinding rollers 50 for multiple times to be crushed, and finally is discharged from the discharge port 12.
