Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mineral processing technology, and in particular to an ore flotation device. Background Technology

[0002] Ore flotation is a method of separating mineral particles based on their differences in surface physicochemical properties and floatability. This process, formerly known as flotation, is the most widely used mineral processing method.

[0003] In existing ore flotation processes, ore dust fails to separate along the set route, instead agglomerating and adhering to the outer wall of the device. This necessitates manual intervention to push it forward, wasting manpower and resources while reducing the company's production efficiency. This is a problem that urgently needs to be solved.

The first motor is fixed to the bottom of the reaction tank by a bracket. The stirring blades are rotatably disposed inside the reaction tank and keyed to the output shaft of the first motor. The flotation frame is fixed to the rear side of the reaction tank. The flotation blades are rotatably connected to the flotation frame. The second motor is fixed to the flotation frame and provides power to the flotation blades. The device also includes a feeding mechanism and a stirring mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism includes a rotating roller, a first bevel gear, a second bevel gear, a first pulley set, and a feeding roller. The rotating roller is rotatably limited on the reaction vessel. The first bevel gear is fixed to the top of the stirring blade. The second bevel gear is keyed to the rotating roller. The first bevel gear and the second bevel gear mesh with each other. The feeding roller is located behind the rotating roller and is rotatably connected to the reaction vessel. The rotating roller drives the feeding roller through the first pulley set.

[0007] Furthermore, the agitation mechanism includes a slant rod, a guide rod, a piston rod, a wedge block, a return spring, and a gas guide tube. The middle part of the agitator blade is hollow rod-shaped. The gas guide tube is symmetrically connected to the bottom of the agitator blade. The slant rod is centrally and symmetrically fixed to the agitator blade. The guide rod is vertically set and rotatably connected to the middle of the roller. The piston rod is slidably connected to the guide rod and extends into the interior of the agitator blade. A centrally and symmetrical wedge block is set at the top of the piston rod. A return spring is connected between the piston rod and the guide rod.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a protective plate, which is rotatably connected to the reaction vessel and can cover the feeding rollers.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes an efficiency-enhancing mechanism, which includes a cylinder, an air intake pipe, and an air delivery pipe. The air intake pipe is connected to the air guide pipe, and the upper part of the air delivery pipe is connected to the cylinder, which is connected to the air intake pipe.

The rotating roller then drives the feeding roller to rotate through the first belt pulley group to guide the material, providing a guiding path for the mineral powder in the reaction tank. Compared with the existing technology, it improves the flotation efficiency and reduces labor costs through automation.

[0014] 2. The rotating stirring blades push the piston rod up and down, and the piston rod repeatedly pushes the ore inside the stirring blades into the reaction tank through the gas guide pipe, thereby creating internal agitation and promoting the flotation of the ore.

[0015] 3. By opening the cylinder, air can be introduced from the air inlet pipe into the air delivery pipe, and finally introduced into the ore in the reaction tank through the air guide pipe, thereby improving the flotation reaction efficiency.

[0016] 4. A graduated feeding frame has been added to facilitate the addition of additives by staff. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions herein are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

The first motor 2 is fixed to the bottom of the reaction tank 1 by a bracket. The stirring blades 3 are rotatably arranged inside the reaction tank 1 and keyed to the output shaft of the first motor 2. The flotation frame 4 is fixed to the rear side of the reaction tank 1. The flotation blades 6 are rotatably connected to the flotation frame 4. The second motor 5 is fixed to the flotation frame 4 and provides power to the flotation blades 6. The system also includes a feeding mechanism 7 and a stirring mechanism 8.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the feeding mechanism 7 includes a rotating roller 701, a first bevel gear 702, a second bevel gear 703, a first pulley set 704, and a feeding roller 705. The rotating roller 701 is rotatably limited and mounted on the reaction vessel 1. The first bevel gear 702 is fixed to the top of the stirring blade 3. The second bevel gear 703 is keyed to the rotating roller 701, and the first bevel gear 702 and the second bevel gear 703 mesh with each other. The feeding roller 705 is located behind the rotating roller 701 and is rotatably connected to the reaction vessel 1. The rotating roller 701 drives the feeding roller 705 through the first pulley set 704. The first motor 2 drives the stirring blades 3 to rotate, causing the ore in the reaction tank 1 to react. Because the first bevel gear 702 and the second bevel gear 703 mesh with each other, the rotation of the stirring blades 3 can drive the rotating roller 701 to rotate. The first pulley group 704 includes two pulleys and a transmission belt. The two pulleys are keyed to the left end of the rotating roller 701 and the feeding roller 705, respectively. The transmission belt is wrapped around the two pulleys. The rotation of the rotating roller 701 will drive the feeding roller 705 to rotate. The feeding roller 705 pushes the ore in the reaction tank 1 to the flotation blades 6 for collection and processing.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the stirring mechanism 8 includes a slant rod 801, a guide rod 802, a piston rod 803, a wedge block 804, a return spring 805, and a gas guide pipe 806. The stirring blade 3 has a hollow rod-shaped center. The gas guide pipe 806 is symmetrically connected to the bottom of the stirring blade 3. The slant rod 801 is centrally and symmetrically fixed to the stirring blade 3. The guide rod 802 is vertically arranged and rotatably connected to the center of the rotating roller 701. The piston rod 803 is slidably connected to the guide rod 802 and extends into the interior of the stirring blade 3. The top of the piston rod 803 is provided with... A centrally symmetrical wedge block 804 is provided, and a return spring 805 is connected between the piston rod 803 and the guide rod 802. The first motor 2 drives the stirring blade 3 to rotate, and the inclined rod 801 fixed on the stirring blade 3 will regularly push the wedge block 804 to slide up and down. As a result, the piston rod 803 is driven by the wedge block 804 to slide up and down. The piston rod 803 will repeatedly push the ore in the stirring blade 3 to be introduced into the reaction tank 1 through the gas guide pipe 806, thereby forming internal agitation and promoting the flotation of ore.

[0034] Example 2

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 8As shown, it also includes an efficiency-enhancing mechanism 10, which includes a cylinder 1001, an air inlet pipe 1002, and an air delivery pipe 1003. The air delivery pipe 1003 is connected to the air guide pipe 806, and the cylinder 1001 is connected to the upper part of the air delivery pipe 1003. The cylinder 1001 is connected to the air inlet pipe 1002. During the flotation process, by opening the cylinder 1001, air can be introduced from the air inlet pipe 1002 into the air delivery pipe 1003, and finally introduced into the ore in the reaction tank 1 through the air guide pipe 806, thereby improving the flotation reaction efficiency.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, it also includes an oxygen-turning assembly 11, which includes an oxygen-turning blade 1101 and a second pulley assembly 1102. The oxygen-turning blade 1101 is rotatably connected to the front of the reaction tank 1. The rotating roller 701 drives the oxygen-turning blade 1101 through the second pulley assembly 1102. The second pulley assembly 1102 consists of two pulleys and a transmission belt. The two pulleys are respectively keyed to the right end of the rotating roller 701 and the oxygen-turning blade 1101. The transmission belt is wound around the two pulleys. The rotation of the rotating roller 701 drives the oxygen-turning blade 1101 to rotate, which can guide the foam at the edge of the reaction tank 1 and improve the efficiency of the flotation reaction.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 11 As shown, it also includes a feeding frame 12 and a pipe valve 1201. The feeding frame 12 is fixed to the reaction tank 1, and the bottom of the feeding frame 12 is connected to the pipe valve 1201.
