[0039] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0040] Embodiment 1
[0041] In order to effectively solve the problem of insufficient uniformity of contact between bubbles and zinc alloy slurry, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 9 This embodiment proposes a flotation device for zinc alloy smelting pre-processing based on visual measurement. The frame carrier 1 has sufficient space inside, as a flotation tank, allowing the zinc alloy minerals placed by the storage component 3 installed on the back of the frame carrier 1 to be combined with the added flotation reagents for flotation operations, and cooperate with the drive motor 2 installed on the top of the frame carrier 1 and the stirring component 5 connected to the drive motor 2 to fully mix the ore particles and the reagents in the slurry, ensuring that the reagents can evenly cover the surface of the ore and form foam, and cooperate with the air supply structure 4 to inject air or other gases into the flotation tank. The injection of gas will generate a large number of tiny bubbles, which will adhere to the surface of the ore particles to form foam, so that the zinc-containing ore can float to the surface of the flotation tank, and the stirring disc component 6 installed on the rear wall of the frame carrier 1 is used to cooperate with the stirring component 5 to vertically rotate and stir the storage component 3 to place the ore.
[0042] The stirring assembly 5 includes a plurality of transverse stirring blades 501 located inside the frame carrier 1, and a bevel gear ring 1 5011 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the plurality of stirring blades 501. The stirring plate assembly 6 includes a positioning ring body 601 installed on the rear wall of the frame carrier 1, and a connecting ring 602 is sleeved on the outer surface of the positioning ring body 601. A ring plate 603 located outside the discharge end of the storage assembly 3 is installed on the front of the connecting ring 602. A bevel gear ring 2 604 meshing with the bevel gear ring 1 5011 is installed on the outer surface of the ring plate 603, and a plurality of vertical stirring blades 605 are installed on the front of the ring plate 603. The stirring assembly 5 connected to the stirring assembly 5 is controlled by the driving motor 2 to rotate rapidly in the lower area inside the frame carrier 1, and the lower position in the flotation tank is stirred by the plurality of stirring blades 501, so that the gas introduced into the bottom of the flotation tank can be uniformly transported upward, thereby promoting the uniform distribution of bubbles in the entire flotation tank, and also helping to fully mix the mineral particles in the slurry with the flotation agent. At the same time, the bevel gear ring 1 5011 transmits the rotational force to the bevel gear ring 2 604 connected thereto by tooth groove matching, so that the bevel gear ring 2 604 drives the annular plate 603 and the connecting ring 602 to rotate vertically at a uniform speed along the outer surface of the positioning ring body 601, thereby controlling the plurality of vertical stirring blades 605 to follow the rotation. Since the outlet end of the storage assembly 3 is located slightly in front of the annular plate 603, on the basis of the lateral stirring of the plurality of stirring blades 501 and the lower position of the flotation tank, a vertical upward stirring force can be generated at the zinc alloy delivery point, which is helpful to fully mix the bubbles with the slurry and prolong their contact time. In addition, the combination of lateral stirring and vertical stirring can promote the circulation and mixing of the slurry, so that the slurry in the entire flotation tank maintains a uniform concentration distribution, while improving the contact efficiency between the bubbles and the slurry, thereby improving the flotation effect and separation effect of the zinc alloy.
[0043] Embodiment 2
[0044] In order to increase the turbulence effect formed when the impeller assembly 6 rotates vertically, as shown in FIG. Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, the vertical stirring blade 605 is formed by at least three C-shaped plates crossing each other to form a wave shape. The vertical stirring blade 605 in the wave shape can generate a series of relatively complex water flow dynamics when it rotates vertically, which is helpful to fully mix and contact the bubbles with the mineral particles, and further improve the flotation efficiency. In addition, the rotation of the vertical stirring blade 605 in the wave shape will cause stirring and turbulence in the water body, thereby promoting the suspension and mixing of solid particles, which is beneficial to the separation of mineral particles during the flotation process. The inclination of the C-shaped plate from back to front is not less than 30°, which is used to reduce the resistance of the vertical stirring blade 605 when it rotates vertically.
[0045] Embodiment 3
[0046] like Figure 1 , Figure 6-Figure 7As shown, a comprehensive cylinder 502 is installed inside a plurality of stirring blades 501, and a shaft structure 503 is fixedly installed on the top of the comprehensive cylinder 502. The interior of the shaft structure 503 is hollow and is interconnected with the comprehensive cylinder 502, so that the gas supplied later can flow inside the two. A transmission structure 5031 is installed between the outer surface of the shaft structure 503 and the output end of the drive motor 2. The transmission structure 5031 is used to transmit the rotational force generated by the drive motor 2 when it is running to the shaft structure 503, and control the shaft structure 503 and its related structures to rotate at a uniform speed. A bidirectional thread groove 5032 is provided on the outer surface of the middle part of the shaft structure 503, and an upper and lower optimization component 7 for improving the bubble arrangement is sleeved on the outer surface of the shaft structure 503 through the bidirectional thread groove 5032. The optimization component 7 includes a sleeve structure 701 sleeved on the outer surface of the area where the bidirectional thread groove 5032 is provided on the shaft structure 503, and a plurality of fan blade plates 702 are installed on the outer surface of the sleeve structure 701, and a rubber sheet 703 is installed at one end of the fan blade plate 702. A baffle structure 101 is installed on the inner wall of one side of the frame carrier 1 to increase the resistance of the optimization component 7 when it rotates following the shaft structure 503. During actual application, the shaft structure 503 rotates at a constant speed under the drive of the driving motor 2, and can drive the optimization component 7 to rotate accordingly. However, since the fan blade plate 702 and the rubber sheet 703 will be subjected to relatively large resistance from the liquid when they rotate accordingly, the sleeve structure 701 will be prompted to move up and down along the outer surface of the shaft structure 503 where a bidirectional thread groove 5032 is provided. At the same time, during the rotation process, the rubber sheet 703 will contact the baffle structure 101, and the reaction force generated by the baffle structure 101 will further increase the resistance of the sleeve structure 701 to drive the fan blade plate 702 and the rubber sheet 703 to rotate in the bidirectional thread groove 5032 area, ensuring that the fan blade plate 702 can move up and down and rotate randomly, thereby further changing the distribution of bubbles in the slurry, ensuring that the bubbles can evenly cover the entire slurry surface, increasing the contact opportunity between the bubbles and the solid particles, and further enhancing the flotation effect.
[0047] The liquid level inside the frame carrier 1 changes each time it is used. In order to ensure that the fan blades 702 rotate in the liquid rather than on the liquid surface, Figure 6-Figure 7 As shown, a widening ring body 704 is installed on the top of the sleeve structure 701, and an extension plate 705 is installed on the outer surface of the shaft structure 503. A threaded rod 706 for adjusting the upward and downward movable range of the sleeve structure 701 along the outer surface of the shaft structure 503 is inserted on the extension plate 705. By rotating the threaded rod 706, the relative position between it and the extension plate 705 is adjusted, and the height position of its bottom is adjusted accordingly. The threaded rod 706 with a fixed height is used to limit the upward rotation height of the sleeve structure 701 with the widening ring body 704, so as to improve the adaptability of the optimization component 7 to different liquid level heights.
[0048] like Figure 8-Figure 9 As shown, the air supply structure 4 is composed of an air pump 401 installed on the top surface of the frame carrier 1 and an air guide pipe 402 connected to the output end of the air pump 401. The tail end of the air guide pipe 402 is inserted into the interior of the shaft structure 503. A branch pipe 504 connected to the integrated cylinder 502 is installed on one side of the stirring blade 501, and a plurality of exhaust valves 5041 are installed on the branch pipe 504. The gas is generated by the air pump 401 and transported to the interior of the integrated cylinder 502 along the air guide pipe 402 and the hollow shaft structure 503, and then distributed relatively evenly in the plurality of branch pipes 504, and injected relatively evenly into the flotation tank along the plurality of exhaust valves 5041 in the open state. Due to the injection of the gas, a large number of tiny bubbles will be generated, and these bubbles will adhere to the surface of the ore particles to form foam, so that the zinc-containing ore can float to the surface of the flotation tank.
[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, a foam sweeping mechanism 102 is installed on the front side of the frame carrier 1. Since zinc-containing ore particles will be adsorbed on the foam in the foam layer formed on the surface of the flotation tank, while other impurity ores will sink, the upper zinc-containing foam can be centrally transferred by the rotation of the foam sweeping mechanism 102. A visual measurement mechanism 103 for real-time monitoring of bubble size and distribution is installed on the top of the frame carrier 1. The visual measurement mechanism 103 can be used to monitor the size and distribution of bubbles in real time. By analyzing the size, shape and distribution density of the bubbles, the movement characteristics of the bubbles in the flotation tank can be evaluated, and then the design of the bubble generation and dispersion system can be optimized to improve the flotation efficiency. And it is interconnected with each electrical device in the device, based on the real-time data obtained by the visual measurement mechanism 103, it can be combined with the intelligent control algorithm to achieve real-time control and optimization of the flotation process.
[0050] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
