TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pellet detection, in particular to an online anti-pressing detection equipment for finished pellets. BACKGROUND
[0002] Pelletizing is a very important link in the production process of pellet, and the finished pellets produced are also called finished pellets. The finished pellets should have a certain anti-pressing capacity to prevent them from being broken during storage, transportation and other processes. Therefore, the anti-pressing strength is a key indicator for evaluating the quality of finished pellets.
[0003] At present, the detection means of the anti-pressing strength indicator of the finished pellets is usually that the staff takes a certain number of finished pellets just produced in the production site, then manually screens them using a screen, leaves the finished pellets meeting the test size as test balls, takes them to the detection room for determination by a pressure testing machine, slowly pressurizes the test balls, records the pressure value when they are broken, thereby obtaining the anti-pressing strength of a single test ball, and takes the average value of the pressure values when all the test balls are broken as the final anti-pressing strength indicator. However, from taking the test balls from the production site to determining the anti-pressing strength in the detection room, the overall time consumption is relatively long, and since the finished pellets just produced contain a certain amount of moisture, the screen holes are easily caked with material powder after each screening, causing the screen holes to be blocked, which needs to be cleaned in time, resulting in a large labor intensity of the staff and further reducing the detection efficiency.
[0004] The published patent CN 116165069 A discloses an online anti-pressing detection system and method for finished pellets, which still has the following defects in actual application: 1) the material taking assembly adopts an electromagnetic suction material taking mode, which is not suitable for the finished pellets made of materials with weak iron oxide magnetism or in the presence of iron impurities, easily leading to low suction efficiency of the material taking assembly and problems of interference in the working process; 2) the material separating assembly separates the pellets by lifting them from the material pile with a separating column, but since the finished pellets have a certain rolling property and the end area of the separating column is relatively small, the empty material is extremely easy to appear; 3) the detection unit does not consider that the finished pellets for detection may be interfered with the authenticity of the anti-pressing detection data due to surface cracks; 4) there is a lack of material discharge design, so that the remaining finished pellets picked up each time need to be manually removed, otherwise they will enter the detection unit in turn, resulting in low detection efficiency.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to further improve the online anti-pressing detection system for finished pellets to improve the working efficiency of the anti-pressing detection of the finished pellets. SUMMARY
