Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of line maintenance, and in particular to a tailings slurry pipeline transportation drag reducing device. Background Art

[0002] Metal mines produce a large amount of tailings sand during the beneficiation process. Due to its small particle size and large output, the accumulation of tailings sand on the ground will cause serious environmental pollution. At the same time, metal mines will cause ground collapse during the mining process, damage farmland and ground buildings, and cause great economic losses to enterprises. In order to solve the above problems, the usual practice is to add an appropriate amount of cement to the tailings sand to make a cemented tailings mortar, and transport it through pipelines to achieve gravity flow to the underground goaf for filling. This approach solves the environmental pollution problem caused by the accumulation of tailings on the ground, and plays a role in supporting the roof of the goaf, preventing the surface from sinking and protecting ground buildings and farmland facilities. However, the following problems still exist: Since the mining depth of metal mines has now reached more than one kilometer, the underground horizontal pipelines are longer, the transportation resistance is large, the transportation efficiency is low, and the transportation pipelines are severely worn.

[0003] The existing Chinese authorized invention patent CN101275710A discloses a drag reduction pipeline for conveying high-viscosity crude oil, grease and chemical raw materials, belonging to the field of oil and gas transportation technology. The pipeline consists of an inner and outer pipe. The liquid or gas enters the outer surface of the inner pipe through the guide pipe, and then enters the pipe through the axial groove and the annular groove on the inner pipe. By changing the friction properties between the medium and the wall, the liquid-solid friction is changed to a liquid-solid and gas-solid mixed friction, which can reduce the friction resistance when conveying high-viscosity fluids such as crude oil, grease and chemical raw materials in the pipe, and greatly improve the transmission efficiency. However, it is not applicable to apply it to the conveying pipeline of the mining and filling system. First of all, considering the large friction between the tailings and the conveying pipeline, and the use intensity of the conveying pipeline, directly opening the groove on the pipeline will cause serious wear and tear, affecting its service life; in addition, the complex pipeline structure design increases the production cost and maintenance cost.

[0035] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and implementation modes.

[0036] Example:

[0037] See also Figure 1-4 A tailings slurry pipeline transportation drag reduction device includes a delivery pipe 1, the delivery pipe 1 includes an outer pipe wall 1-1, on which a high-pressure air inlet 5 is opened; an inner pipe wall 1-2, and the space between the inner pipe wall 1-1 and the outer pipe wall 1-1 is a high-pressure air channel 2; a plurality of air film generating channels 4 are opened on the side wall of the inner pipe 1-2; the high-pressure air inlet 5 is connected to the high-pressure air channel connection 2; a plurality of high-frequency vibrators 3 are evenly arranged in the high-pressure air channel 2; a micro-bubble generating mechanism 6, the micro-bubble flow and the high-pressure gas are ejected through the air film generating channel 4 against the inner pipe wall 1-2 to form a water vapor film. The water vapor film generating channel can make the solid mixed fluid have a tendency to move toward the center of the delivery pipeline, and a small range of true fast can be formed at the outlet of the water vapor film generating channel. At the same time, the high-pressure gas passes through the water vapor film generating channel and is ejected close to the inner pipe wall, so that a layer of water vapor film is formed on the inner pipe wall, and when the solid mixed fluid moves toward the inner pipe wall, the viscosity of the mixed fluid and the inner pipe wall can be reduced. Moreover, a high-frequency vibrator is provided on the inner pipe wall of the air outlet of the water vapor film generating channel, which is conducive to the formation of tiny bubbles between high-pressure gas and liquid and gas, and can reduce the contact between the pipe wall and the fluid, thereby improving the internal friction of the mortar and the boundary friction between the mortar and the pipe wall, and reducing the pipeline transportation resistance.

[0038] In order to prevent the tailings slurry from adhering to the inner tube 1-2, the high-frequency vibrator 3 performs high-frequency vibration under the vibration of the airflow. In order to achieve high-frequency vibration, the high-frequency vibrator 3 includes a turntable 3-1 and a plurality of telescopic vibration components. The turntable 3-1 is rotated on the side wall of the inner tube 1-2 through a vibration bracket 3-3; one end of the plurality of telescopic vibration components is respectively uniformly arranged on the turntable 3-1 along the radial direction. When the turntable 3-1 drives the plurality of telescopic vibration components to rotate, they contact the wall of the inner tube 1-2 in turn, and the plurality of telescopic vibration components are squeezed and contracted, and the wall of the inner tube 1-2 is slightly vibrated. In order to increase the frequency of vibration, the telescopic vibration components are tilted. Due to the formation of air vortices, the plurality of telescopic vibration components drive the turntable 3-1 to rotate faster through the vibration bracket 3-3. The tilt angle ranges from 10° to 20°, and the telescopic vibration components do not contact the edge of the turntable 3-1.

[0039] Each telescopic vibration assembly includes a vibration sleeve 3-2, one end of which is evenly arranged on the turntable 3-1 along the radial direction; a plurality of forming springs 3-4 are arranged in the vibration sleeve rod 3-2, one end of which is connected to the bottom of the vibration sleeve rod 3-2; a sleeve rod, one end of which is arranged in the vibration sleeve 3-2 and fixedly connected to the other end of the forming spring 3-4, and the other end extends out of the vibration sleeve 3-2; an abutment block 3-5 is arranged at the other end of the sleeve rod, and in order to reduce friction, a spherical and corrosion-resistant material is generally selected, and it is rotatably connected to the sleeve rod.

[0040] See also Figure 3-4 It can be seen that in order to further include a vibration table 7, the vibration table 7 is fixedly arranged on the inner tube wall 1-2, and the turntable 3-1 is rotatably arranged on the vibration table 7 through the vibration bracket 3-3; the vibration table 7 includes a connecting plate 7-1, and the turntable 3-1 is rotatably arranged on the connecting plate 7-1 through the vibration bracket 3-3; an outer sleeve 7-2, the upper end of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 7-1; a vibration spring 7-4, one end of which is fixedly connected to the lower end of the outer sleeve 7-2, and the other end is connected to the inner tube wall 1-2; an inner pipe 7-3, the lower end of which is fixedly connected to the inner tube wall 1-2, the upper end extends into the outer sleeve 7-2, and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the outer sleeve 7-2; a plurality of water inlets are opened at the lower part of the inner pipe 7-3, and the diameter of the water inlet is the same as the length of the vibration spring 7-4 in a compressed state.

[0041] The microbubble generating mechanism 6 includes several groups of electrode assemblies, which are evenly arranged in the high-pressure airway 2, and their two ends are fixedly connected to the inner tube wall 1-2 and the outer tube wall 1-1, and are located in front of each of the air film generating channels 4; each of the electrode assemblies includes: two electrodes, whose two ends are respectively plugged into the first groove opened in the inner tube wall 1-2 and the second groove of the outer tube wall 1-1; one electrode is an anode, which is electrically connected to the positive pole of a power supply arranged outside the outer tube wall 1-1 through an anode wire, and the other electrode is a cathode, which is electrically connected to the negative pole of a power supply arranged outside the outer tube wall 1-1 through a cathode wire.

[0042] The air film generating channel 4 includes a corrugated tube 4-1, which is connected to the wall of the inner tube 1-2; the diameter of the corrugated tube 4-1 is one tenth of the diameter of the outer tube wall 1-1; the corrugated tube 4-1 includes three arc sections, which play the role of smooth entry, smooth change of direction and wall-adhering spraying. When the solid-liquid mixed fluid passes through the position of the air film generating channel 5, it will move along the first arc-shaped inner wall of the air film generating channel 5, and at the end of the first arc-shaped inner wall, it has a tendency to continue moving along the tangent of the first arc-shaped inner wall toward the center of the conveying pipeline. In this way, a small range of vacuum will be formed at the second arc-shaped inner wall and the third arc-shaped inner wall. At the same time, after passing through the air film generating channel 5, the high-pressure gas is sprayed close to the inner tube wall 2, forming a layer of air film on the inner tube wall 2. When the solid-liquid mixed fluid moves toward the inner tube wall 2, it will not directly touch the inner tube wall 2, but touch the air film first, reducing the viscosity of the solid-liquid mixed fluid and the inner tube wall 2. Moreover, a high-frequency vibrator 4 is provided on the inner tube wall 2 of the air outlet of the air film generating channel 5, which is conducive to the formation of tiny bubbles between high-pressure gas and liquid, and can reduce the contact between the tube wall and the fluid, thereby improving the internal friction of the mud and the boundary friction between the mud and the tube wall, and reducing the pipeline transportation resistance.
