The present disclosure relates to grinding devices, and in particular to a solid material grinding method and device with an adjustable discharge size.
To test the physicochemical characteristics of solid minerals, a representative sample is often crushed into a fine particle size for subsequent analysis and testing. Both at home and abroad, the solid minerals are crushed mostly by a gyratory crusher, a cone crusher, a jaw crusher, and a collision-type crusher (e.g., a rod mill, a ball mill, etc.). When one of the common crushing devices mentioned above is used, metals are collided with each other to cause heat, vibration, and large noise in the device, resulting in a waste of input energy. With long-time grinding of the device, the high temperature has a certain impact on the physicochemical characteristics of mineral particles to affect the accuracy of a test result. Therefore, the conventional grinding device has inaccurate size control and frequent occurrence of coarse sizes, and thus, cannot meet subsequent use requirements.
An objective of the present disclosure is to provide a solid material grinding method and device with an adjustable discharge size, which is applied to crushing solid minerals. With a clearance fit between a movable grinding disc and a stationary grinding disc, the present disclosure prevents collision between metals in the grinding process to obtain a higher energy utilization efficiency. The present disclosure ensures stable properties of mineral particles by reducing a temperature rise in the grinding process and obtains an accurate size of the product by accurately controlling a grinding clearance.

The solid material grinding device with an adjustable discharge size has the following grinding method:
Materials are fed to the grinding disc housing. The materials are semi-fluidized through interaction among the central rectifying blower 2, the top rectifying blower 17, and the side edge rectifying blower 104. Semi-fluidized material particles are crushed through a relative movement between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3.
The solid material grinding device with an adjustable discharge size in the embodiment has the following technical features: (1) There is no collision between metals in the grinding process. Test material particles are crushed through the relative movement between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3. The movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 each are provided in a fan-shaped manner with the grinding disc as a main body and the center of the grinding surface of the grinding disc as a circular point with adjacent convex surfaces 202 and concave surfaces 201. The adjacent convex surface 202 and concave surface 201 are formed into a group. There are 2-6 groups of concave and convex surfaces on the grinding surface of the circular grinding disc. An outer edge surrounding the convex surfaces 202 and the concave surfaces 201 on the grinding surface of the grinding disc refers to the grinding side edge 205. The convex-surface side edge 204 is inclined at a certain angle. The inclined convex-surface side edge has a certain width. Grinding cavity 203 is formed between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3. The grinding cavity 203 is a clearance between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3. Materials to be ground will be ground in the cavity. The concave surfaces 201 are connected to the grinding cavity 203 to store the materials. The convex-surface side edge 204 communicates with the concave surfaces 201 and the convex surfaces 202. In response to the rotation of the movable grinding disc, the convex-surface side edge 204 cuts and crushes the materials while guiding a part of the materials to clearances between the convex surfaces 202. The materials are ground between the convex surfaces 202 and the grinding side edge 205 into particles with an appropriate size.
(2) The gas is pretreated. Gas charged to the grinding device is cooled in advance with a refrigerating device. The refrigerating device may use a compressor, a semiconductor, a vortex tube, and the like for refrigeration. Cooling the gas can take away heat in the grinding process, reduce water vapor in the gas, and prevent water in the gas from affecting the ground materials.
(3) The gas is semi-fluidized. The materials enter the receiving hopper 107. Under the cooperation of gas flows from the cylinder top cover rectifying blower 108 and the cylinder sidewall rectifying blower 106, the material particles enter the grinding cavity 203. The materials in the grinding cavity 203 are semi-fluidized under the cooperation among the central rectifying blower 2, the top rectifying blower 17, and the side edge rectifying blower 104, such that the materials of different sizes contact the grinding surface more frequently to improve the grinding efficiency. The gas can take away heat caused by collision so the properties of the material particles are not affected. Meanwhile, the gas can take away particles of sizes less than a clearance between the grinding surfaces to prevent repeated grinding, shorten grinding time, and prevent a superfine size.
(4) Regarding rectifying gas in a gas field: There are one to four top rectifying blowers 17 and one to four side edge rectifying blowers 104. The gas from the rectifying blowers enters the central shaft cavity 11. A flow field formed by the gas surrounds the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 to keep the temperature stable. Particles flowing from the grinding surfaces enter the collecting hopper 105. Upon completion of the grinding, a flow of rectifying gas is increased to realize a purge function. The flow changes at a certain amplitude and a certain frequency in cooperation with a grinding clearance, thus cleaning residues in the grinding cavity.
(5) The clearance between the grinding surfaces is adjustable. Maximum sizes of the ground particles depend on the clearance between the convex surfaces of the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3. Positions of the limiting groove 14 and the limiting bolt 8 determine the distance between the mobile grinding surface and the stationary grinding surface. The mobile grinding surface is fixed in the grinding process with the pressure of the master cylinder 7. After the master cylinder 7 is loosened, the distance between the mobile grinding surface and the stationary grinding surface is expanded for the convenience of cleaning.
(6) Regarding fixation of the central shaft: The central shaft 12 is fixed in the central shaft cavity 11 through two to six fixed bearings 13. The movable grinding disc 5 is fixed with the movable grinding disc mounting seat 6 through three to fifteen bolts. The bolts may be arranged in form of a concentric circle, a square, etc. Through the bolts, not only can the movable grinding disc 5 be fixed, but also fine adjustments can be made to the flatness of the mobile grinding surface. The movable grinding disc mounting seat 6 is connected to the central shaft mounting seat 15.
(7) Regarding slippage of the central shaft: The central shaft 12 and the fixed bearings 13 may slide along the axial direction of the central shaft. Limiting groove 14 is formed at one side of the one to three fixed bearing 13. The limiting groove 14 is an annular groove. The annular limiting groove 14 is configured to locate a maximum sliding distance of the central shaft 12.
(8) One end of the central shaft 12 is connected to an end portion of the piston rod in the master cylinder 7 through the connecting plate 10. The connecting plate 10 is connected to the bearing sleeve 18. The bearing sleeve 18 is connected to the fixed bearing 13 at the other end of the central shaft 12. The bearing sleeve 18 may drive the central shaft 12 to slide. Under the driving of the master cylinder 7, the central shaft 12 may slide within a certain distance. Consequently, the movable grinding disc 5 moves to adjust the distance between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3.
(9) Regarding adjustment of a minimum clearance: The connecting plate 10 is connected to the bearing sleeve 18. By adjusting the length of the limiting bolt 8 exposed out of the connecting plate, a minimum clearance between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 is determined.
(10) Regarding a feeding mode: The materials are fed from the center of the stationary grinding disc 3 through the receiving hopper 107. In this mode, the materials enter the grinding cavity quickly to improve efficiency. On the other hand, the materials that come in close contact with the gas source quickly enter a semi-fluidized state, and thus, the materials contact the grinding surface more frequently. When the solid material grinding device with an adjustable discharge size is in operation, the cylinder sidewall rectifying blower 106 and the cylinder top cover rectifying blower 108 each charge a certain amount of gas continuously, such that the materials are not reversely blown back to the receiving hopper 107.
(11) Regarding the collection of the ground materials: The annular grinding disc housing 4 is provided outside the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3. The grinding disc housing 4 communicates with the collecting hopper 105. Vent 110 is formed in the collecting hopper 105. A replaceable filter cotton is provided in the vent 110. By charging the gas to the vent 110, materials in the collecting hopper 105 are discharged more quickly.
The solid material grinding method and device with an adjustable discharge size are applied to crushing solid minerals. With a clearance fit between the movable grinding disc and the stationary grinding disc, the present disclosure prevents collision between metals in the grinding process to obtain a higher energy utilization efficiency. The present disclosure ensures stable properties of mineral particles by reducing the temperature rise in the grinding process and obtains an accurate size of the product by accurately controlling the grinding clearance.
The solid material grinding device with an adjustable discharge size in the embodiment is a further improvement to the structure in Embodiment 1. Parts same as or corresponding to those in Embodiment 1 use the same or corresponding numerals in Embodiment 1. For simplicity, only differences between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 are described herein.
As shown in
The collecting hopper 105 and the feed inlet communicate with each other through reverse material blowing tube 22. Reverse blower 112 communicating with a gas-blowing device is further provided on the collecting hopper 105. The reverse blower 112 is located at the side of the collecting hopper 105. When the solid material grinding device with an adjustable discharge size works, the reverse blower 112 communicates with the gas-blowing device.
The solid material grinding device with an adjustable discharge size in the embodiment can change the vibrating sieve 20 of different pore sizes as required. The vibrating sieve 20 may be driven by the vibrating motor 21 to vibrate. Under the combined action of the vibration and the gas flow in the grinding disc cavity 16, particles having sizes less than the pore size of the vibrating sieve 20 may fall (e.g., may be filtered) through the sieve. In the grinding process, the vibrating motor 21 may be turned on all the time or at a fixed interval.
After the grinding process lasts for a period of time, the transmission motor 101 and the vibrating sieve 20 cease operation, the distance between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 is increased, and the remaining materials in the grinding cavity 203 drop. Thereafter, the distance between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 is restored. The vibrating motor 21 stops after being turned on for a period of time. The gas-blowing device is turned on to reversely blow the gas, such that the materials on the vibrating sieve 20 are sent back to the feed inlet 1 through the reverse material blowing tube 112. The vibrating sieve 20 can realize automatic material returning, and thus, the final sieving rate reaches 100%. This is the automatic material return.
After the grinding process lasts for a period of time, the transmission motor 101 and the vibrating sieve 20 ceases operation, the distance between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 is increased, and the remaining materials in the grinding cavity 203 drop. Thereafter, the distance between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 is restored. The vibrating motor 21 stops after being turned on for a period of time. The vibrating sieve 20 is taken down manually. Materials on the sieve are poured into the feed inlet 1. The above operation is repeated until the sieving rate reaches 100%. This is the manual material returning.
By adjusting the power of the vibrating motor 21 or changing the main vibrating direction and the vibrating frequency of the vibrating motor 21, the vibrating motor in work can drive the grinding cavity 203 to vibrate, thereby cleaning surfaces of the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3, and cleaning an inner surface of the grinding cavity 203. In response to self-cleaning, the distance between the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 changes. In cooperation with continuous or pulsed gas provided by each blower, residual samples on the surfaces of the movable grinding disc 5 and the stationary grinding disc 3 are purged. Through the above actions, both an inner wall of the grinding cavity 203 and a screen of the vibrating sieve 20 can be cleaned. The above only describes some exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure in an illustrative manner. Undoubtedly, the described embodiments can be modified by those of ordinary skilled in the art in different manners without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the above-accompanying drawings and descriptions are substantially illustrative and should not be understood as a limit to the scope of protection of the claims in the present disclosure.
