Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of intelligent coal preparation, and in particular relates to a gangue double-belt combined dry separation system and a screening method. Background Art

[0002] Raw coal mined underground is always mixed with varying amounts of gangue, making coal preparation a critical step in improving coal quality. Coal preparation is generally divided into wet and dry separation. Particles or powdered coal with a particle size of ≤50mm enter the coal washing line, while lumps with a particle size greater than 50mm undergo dry separation.

[0003] In recent years, intelligent dry sorting equipment has developed rapidly. Recognition technologies primarily fall into two categories: radiographic and image-based. Sorting methods primarily rely on air jets, robotic grippers, and mechanical pushers. Air jet sorting is unsuitable for large-particle materials and requires pre-alignment of the material. Existing alignment devices employ transverse guide plates installed on the belt to divert material already on the belt. This diversion process can cause material jamming, and the continuous sliding of material on the belt causes significant wear. When worn areas of the belt are contaminated with coal dust, they often resemble coal in the image, leading to misidentification of "coal" and compromising image detection accuracy. Robotic grippers and mechanical pushers are used to sort large pieces of material without pre-alignment. However, due to speed limitations of these grippers and mechanical pushers, sorting efficiency is relatively low. Mechanical pushers operate by "pushing" waste rock into the waste rock channel. This sliding of the waste rock on the belt also causes significant wear. Furthermore, if coal is present around the waste rock, the mechanical pusher will push the coal into the waste rock bin. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to expand the overall sortable particle size range of the system, improve the sorting efficiency, and reduce the wear of the material on the belt, the present invention provides a coal gangue double-belt combined dry sorting system and screening method.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical scheme: a coal gangue double belt combined dry sorting system, including a dynamic screen, a controller, a gantry manipulator, a manipulator belt, an air-spray sorting mechanism, an air-spray belt and a coal gangue arranging device, the dynamic screen is provided with an upper discharge port for allowing materials with a particle size of ≥150mm to pass through, a middle discharge port for allowing materials with a particle size of 50mm~150mm to pass through, and a lower discharge port for allowing materials with a particle size of <50mm to pass through; the upper discharge port is connected to the manipulator belt, the middle discharge port is connected to the air-spray belt, a first coal gangue identification device and a gantry manipulator are provided above the manipulator belt, the first coal gangue identification device identifies and distinguishes coal and gangue in the material, and the gantry manipulator sorts the coal and gangue according to the first coal gangue identification device. The gangue identification device picks the coal and gangue into the coal bin or gangue bin according to the results of the identification; a gangue straightening device is set at the front of the air-spraying belt, and a second gangue identification device is set above the middle of the air-spraying belt. The second gangue identification device identifies and distinguishes the coal and gangue in the material. The air-spraying belt is divided into multiple channels according to the material channel of the straightening mechanism, and each channel is further subdivided into multiple virtual sub-channels. Multiple air-spray sorting mechanisms are set at the exits of the multiple rows of material channels at the tail of the air-spraying belt. Each air-spray sorting mechanism corresponds to a virtual sub-channel of the air-spraying belt. The air-spray sorting mechanism picks the coal and gangue into the coal bin or gangue bin according to the identification results of the second gangue identification device; the first gangue identification device and the second gangue identification device are connected to the controller.

[0006] Furthermore, the gantry manipulator includes a gripper fixing frame, a gripper screw, a gripper guide rail, a screw slider, a guide rail base, a gripper motor, a mobile gripper, a guide rail slider and a fixed gripper. The gripper screw and the gripper guide rail are installed on the gripper fixing frame through the guide rail base. The gripper screw is driven by the gripper motor. The gripper guide rails are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the gripper screw. A screw slider is provided on the gripper screw, and a guide rail slider is provided on the gripper guide rail. The screw slider and the guide rail slider are equipped with the same movable jaw. The movable claw is also equipped with a fixed claw at the bottom of the claw fixing frame. The movable claw and the fixed claw are symmetrically arranged. The gantry manipulator is provided with two groups of grippers consisting of movable claws and fixed claws, namely 1# claw and 2# claw. The claw screw stroke of 1# claw is 50mm~250mm, which is used to grab gangue with a particle size of ≤250mm. The screw stroke of 2# claw is 50mm~400mm, which is used to grab gangue with a particle size of 250mm~400mm.

[0007] The air-spray sorting mechanism includes an air nozzle controlled by a high-pressure air valve. The air nozzle of each air-spray sorting mechanism is coded according to the coding rule ab, where a is the channel number and b is the virtual sub-channel number. A coal bin is set at the end of the air-spray belt near the belt, and a gangue bin is set away from the belt. If the material is coal, it will fall directly into the coal bin. If the material is gangue, it will be blown into the gangue bin by the high-pressure gas blown out by the air nozzle during the falling process.

[0008] The entire array device includes vertical guide plates, guide plate fixings, guide plate connecting rods, fixing clips and the entire array device fixing frame. Multiple groups of vertical guide plates are arranged side by side, and funnel-shaped channels are formed from top to bottom between adjacent vertical guide plates. Guide plate connecting rods are passed through the vertical guide plates. The guide plate connecting rods are fixed to the guide plates through the guide plate fixings, and the two ends of the guide plate connecting rods are fixed to the entire array device fixing frame through fixing clips.

[0009] The deflector fixing part includes an elastic fixing ring, a hexagonal bolt and a hexagonal nut. The elastic fixing ring is a semicircular arc structure. Extension parts are provided at both ends of the semicircular arc structure. The extension parts are provided with through holes. Hexagonal bolts are provided in the through holes. The ends of the hexagonal bolts are fastened by hexagonal nuts.

[0010] The middle-level discharge port of the dynamic screen is located just above the blanking area of ​​the entire array device. After the material falls, it is guided by the vertical guide plates under its own gravity and randomly falls into a channel composed of vertical guide plates, realizing channel blanking. When passing through the guide plate connecting rod, due to the limitation of the installation height of the guide plate connecting rod, the stacked materials are flattened on the belt to complete the channel arrangement.

[0011] A screening method for a gangue double-belt combined dry separation system comprises the following steps:

[0012] S100: The gangue material is fed into the dynamic screen. After screening by the dynamic screen, the material with a particle size of ≥150mm enters the manipulator belt through the upper discharge port, the material with a particle size of 50mm~150mm enters the air injection belt through the middle discharge port, and the material with a particle size of <50mm enters the coal preparation plant through the lower discharge port.

[0013] S200: Coal and gangue with a particle size of ≥150mm enter the manipulator belt. The speed range of the manipulator belt is 0.5m / s-1m / s. The first coal gangue identification device detects the material and obtains the positioning coordinates of the material on the belt. x br1 , y br1 ),( x br2 , y br2 ), ( x br0 , y br0 )] and category recognition results. When the target recognition result is coal, no further information processing is performed; when the target recognition result is gangue, x br2 - x br1 The value of replaces the particle size of the material along the width direction. If the value is ≤250mm, an action command is issued to the 1# gripper, otherwise an action command is issued to the 2# gripper.

[0014] S300: Coal and gangue with a particle size of 50mm~150mm fall into the air-jet belt through the middle-level discharge port of the dynamic screen machine, and the air-jet belt speed is ≥1m / s; the middle-level discharge port of the dynamic screen machine is located directly above the drop zone of the entire array device. After falling, the material passes through the vertical guide plate under its own gravity and falls randomly into a channel to complete the channel arrangement.

[0015] S400: The material passes through the second gangue identification device and obtains the positioning coordinates of the material on the belt [( x ba1 , y ba1 ),( x ba2 , y ba2 ), ( x ba0 , y ba0 )] and category identification results. If the material is coal, it will fall directly into the coal bin; if the identification result is gangue, it will be blown into the gangue bin by the high-pressure gas blown out by the air-spray sorting mechanism during the falling process.

[0016] In step S200, according to the center point of the material y Coordinate value y br0 , determine the grabbing position and action time of 1# or 2# claw, grab the gangue and put it into the gangue bin, and the coal falls into the coal bin along the belt movement; under the manipulator belt coordinate system, the manipulator grabs y The position of the direction is fixed and can be moved along x Direction and z Direction movement; when the gangue moves along the belt to the robot y Grab position of direction y r At the same time, the manipulator grabs the gangue and puts it into the gangue bin, and the coal moves along the belt and falls into the coal bin; according to the center point of the material y Axis coordinates y br0 and formula Calculate the robot action delay, t mr is the manipulator action delay, t' is the time it takes for the manipulator to reach the grasping point from the initial position, The time for the host computer to calculate the detection target and send the detection results is v r .

[0017] In step S400, the air nozzle for performing the jetting action is determined according to the gangue positioning coordinates: according to the upper left corner and the lower right corner of the gangue x coordinate[ xba1 , x ba2 ] Determine the channel number and sub-channel interval where the gangue is located. If x ba1 and x ba2 are all located in the same sub-channel interval, the air nozzle corresponding to the channel performs the jet action; if x ba1 and x ba2 Located in different sub-channel intervals, the air nozzles corresponding to the two sub-channels and all the sub-channels between the two sub-channels all perform the jet action; according to the center point y coordinate y ba0 and formula Determine the air jet waiting time of the air jet sorting mechanism. The position coordinates of the air nozzle in the belt running direction are: y a , installed under the belt h a At, the air spray belt speed is v a .

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1) The present invention combines the advantages of robot sorting and air-spray sorting: the air-spray mechanism has a fast sorting speed and can match a faster material transportation speed, but it is difficult to blow out materials with a particle size greater than 150mm, and they need to rely on the robot to grab them. Since the robot takes a long time to perform an action, the running speed of the belt is limited. A coal gangue double-belt combined dry sorting system is equipped with a double-belt sorting system with multiple actuators. A grading screen is set at the front end of the belt to divert the material to the robot belt and the air-spray belt according to the particle size. Different belt speeds are set according to the type of sorting mechanism, so that the system can simultaneously sort coal and gangue with a particle size of 50mm-400mm, and can ensure the maximum speed at which the robot belt and the air-spray belt can effectively complete the sorting, thereby maximizing the coal gangue sorting efficiency.

[0020] 2) The novel alignment device designed in the present invention arranges the materials according to channels during their falling process, thus avoiding wear on the belt during sliding drainage on the belt, which is beneficial to extending the belt life and reducing costs. At the same time, it avoids the problem of decreased image recognition accuracy caused by changes in the belt surface state.

[0021] 3) The air jet mechanism control system of the present invention can control the corresponding position and number of air nozzles to perform air jet action according to the detected gangue size and position, ensuring that gangue of all particle sizes can be successfully blown out.

The dynamic screen 3 is provided with an upper discharge port 3.5 for allowing materials with a particle size of ≥150 mm to pass through, a middle discharge port 3.6 for allowing materials with a particle size between 50 mm and 150 mm to pass through, and a lower discharge port 3.8 for allowing materials with a particle size of <50 mm to pass through; the upper discharge port 3.5 is connected to the manipulator belt 7, and the middle discharge port 3.6 is connected to the air-spray belt 9. A first coal gangue identification device and a gantry manipulator 6 are provided above the manipulator belt 7. The first coal gangue identification device identifies and distinguishes coal and gangue in the material, and the gantry manipulator 6 According to the results of identification by the first gangue identification device, the coal and gangue are respectively picked into the coal bin or gangue bin; a gangue arranging device 10 is arranged at the front of the air-spraying belt 9, and a second gangue identification device is arranged above the middle of the air-spraying belt 9. The second gangue identification device identifies and distinguishes the coal and gangue in the material. The air-spraying belt 9 is divided into multiple channels according to the material channel of the arranging mechanism, and each channel is further subdivided into multiple virtual sub-channels. Multiple air-spraying sorting mechanisms 8 are arranged at the outlets of the multiple rows of material channels at the tail of the air-spraying belt 9. Each air-spraying sorting mechanism 8 corresponds to a virtual sub-channel of the air-spraying belt. The air-spraying sorting mechanism picks the coal and gangue into the coal bin or gangue bin according to the identification results of the second gangue identification device; the first gangue identification device and the second gangue identification device are connected to the controller 5.

Each air nozzle of the air-spray sorting mechanism 8 is coded, and the coding rule is ab, where a is the channel number and b is the virtual sub-channel number. A coal bin is set near the end of the air-spray belt, and a gangue bin is set away from the belt. If the material is coal, it will fall directly into the coal bin. If the material is gangue, it will be blown into the gangue bin by the high-pressure gas blown out by the air nozzle during the falling process.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the dynamic screen machine 3 includes a dynamic screen machine feed port 3.1, an upper screening rod 3.2, an upper screening rib 3.3, a middle screening plate 3.4, an upper discharge port 3.5, a middle discharge port 3.6, a spring base 3.7, a lower discharge port 3.8, a vibrating screen motor 3.9, and an exciter 3.10. The dynamic screen machine housing is fixed to the spring base via high-strength bolts. The vibrating screen motor drives the exciter eccentric block to rotate at high speed, stimulating the vibrating screen housing to produce a circular motion of a certain amplitude. The material on the inclined screening plate then produces a continuous throwing motion, and material smaller than the sieve hole will fall into the next layer of screening plate. The upper screening device is composed of an upper screening rod and upper screening ribs. The upper screening rod is connected to the vibrating screen housing via high-strength bolts, and the upper screening ribs are connected to the upper screening rod by welding. The middle screening plate is welded into a mesh plate by ribs of the same width and is fixed to the vibrating screen box by bolts.

[0042] The upper screening device is welded together by upper screening rods 3.2 and upper screening ribs 3.3. After screening on the upper layer, materials with a particle size of 150 mm or larger pass through upper discharge port 3.5 onto the manipulator belt 7. Materials with a particle size of less than 150 mm fall onto the middle screening plate 3.4. The middle screening plate 3.4 is composed of rigidly connected steel ribs of equal width, with a mesh size of 50 mm. After passing through the middle screening plate 3.4, materials with a particle size of 50 mm to 150 mm pass through the middle discharge port onto the air injection belt. Pulverized coal or small particles with a particle size of less than 50 mm fall onto the bottom layer of the dynamic screen 3 and enter the coal preparation plant through lower discharge port 3.8.

The camera 4.2 collects images and sends the images to the host computer. The host computer completes the positioning and classification identification of the materials in the image, and encodes the detection information and sends it to the controller 5. The controller 5 controls the action mechanism to perform the sorting action.

The light source is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the camera. The camera is connected to the host computer signal, and the host computer is connected to the controller signal.

[0045] The gangue recognition device uses a camera to capture images of the belt and materials in real time. The target detection algorithm preset in the host computer processes the images, locates the materials in the images, and identifies their categories. To further calculate the position of the target on the belt, the pixel coordinates (unit: pixel) in the pixel coordinate system are mapped to the real-world belt coordinate system (unit: mm) according to Equation 1 (e.g. Figure 3 Assume that the pixel coordinates in the image are ( u B , v B ), then the corresponding position in the belt coordinate system ( x B , y B )for:

[0046] (1)

[0047] Where, B is the belt type code. Different belt type codes correspond to different belt coordinate systems: the manipulator belt is represented by br , the air spray belt is expressed as ba .d Bx d By 、u BO 、v BO For B Coordinate transformation parameters in the belt-like coordinate system, d Bx A pixel is located at the lower edge of the corresponding belt coordinate system. x Length in the axial direction, d By A pixel is located at the lower edge of the corresponding belt coordinate system. y Length in the axial direction, (u BO , v BO ) represents the position of the pixel coordinate origin in the world coordinate system after the pixel coordinate is converted to the corresponding belt coordinate system. Specification: Belt coordinate system, the upper surface of the belt is xOy plane, the belt runs in the direction of y The belt surface is perpendicular to its running direction (the direction of belt width). x Axis, the direction perpendicular to the upper surface of the belt is z The coordinate systems of the robot belt and the air-jet belt are independent of each other.

After the conversion, the coordinates of the three corresponding position points are ( x B1 , y B1 ), ( x B2 , y B2 ), ( x B0 , y B0 ).
