The invention discloses a mineral separator and a use method thereof. The mineral separator comprises an electric hoist hanger, a separating
bed of the mineral separator, a gas-
solid mixture gathering device, a
cyclone separator, a bag-type
dust collector, a main fan, a dust removing draft fan, a spray dust suppression
system, an electric appliance controller, a
monitoring system, an external heat
source system and a mineral separator enclosing framework; the separating
bed of the mineral separator and a vibrator are hung on the electric hoist hanger, the vibrator is connected with the separating
bed of the mineral separator, and an
air chamber at the bottom of the separating bed of the mineral separator is connected with an air supply device; the separating bed of the mineral separator comprises an approximately
right trapezoid-shaped bed surface, the beveled edge of the
right trapezoid is the
discharge edge of the separating bed, a
discharge baffle plate is arranged at the side of of the
discharge edge, and the side of the right-angle edge opposite to the discharge edge is provided with a backboard for guiding materials to turn upwardly. The mineral separator and the use method thereof effective overcome the problem of narrow application range of an existing separating bed surface, is capable of selecting a reasonable bed surface inclination angle, enables the separation quantity to be improved, and enables the separating precision to be improved.
