Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of flotation technology, and in particular to a flotation foam image feature extraction and multi-operating condition recognition system and method. Background Art
[0002] Flotation is currently the core purification method for mineral resources such as coal, copper-nickel sulfide ore, lead-zinc ore, etc. Its flotation effect directly affects product quality. Therefore, the monitoring and quantification of flotation effect information such as foam state, concentrate grade, and yield during flotation are crucial to achieve ore quality optimization and fine control of the production process. However, in the traditional flotation process, flotation drivers often judge and adjust the flotation effect by observing the flotation foam state. This method relies on the personal experience of the flotation driver to estimate the flotation condition, lacks a unified quantitative standard, and cannot achieve full-cycle status monitoring of flotation, which leads to large production fluctuations.
[0003] Traditional flotation foam image data collection often requires on-site industrial image collection, and its data labels also come from on-site test data. Although this method is the most intuitive and practical, due to the long industrial process, there is a lag between the foam state and the flotation index, and the data labels are distorted. In addition, the data collection process requires artificial creation of various flotation deterioration conditions, which affects the economic benefits of the ore dressing plant. Therefore, direct on-site sampling is not conducive to laboratory preliminary research and unit condition experiments. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of the above analysis, the embodiments of the present invention aim to provide a flotation foam image feature extraction and multi-operating condition recognition system and method to solve the problems of difficulty in collecting existing flotation foam images, lack of extreme operating condition data, and weak generalization ability of image recognition models.

[0045] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the stirring impeller 121 includes an umbrella-shaped top 1211 and stirring blades 1212, and a plurality of stirring blades 1212 are provided, and the plurality of stirring blades 1212 are evenly arranged in a ring along the bottom of the umbrella-shaped top 1211.

[0048] Considering that the flotation process requires air intake, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the flotation cell body 11 further includes an air inlet pipe 116, and two air inlet pipes 116 are provided. The two air inlet pipes 116 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the flotation cell 111. An air inlet channel 1131 is provided in the partition plate 113, and correspondingly, two air inlet channels 1131 are also provided, which are respectively connected to the air inlet pipe 116. Preferably, the air inlet channel 1131 is L-shaped, one end of which is connected to the air inlet pipe 116, and the other end is connected to the upper chamber 1111. A one-way valve is provided on the air inlet pipe 116, and the other end of the air inlet pipe 116 is connected to an external air pump.

[0049] like Figure 7As shown, the support base 13 includes a bottom shell 131 and a motor base 132. The motor base 132 is disposed in the bottom shell 131, and the stepper motor 124 is connected to the motor base 132.

[0050] It should be noted that the flotation unit 1 further includes a motion controller and an encoder, which are arranged in the bottom shell 131. The stepper motor 124 and the encoder are both connected to the motion controller, and the motion controller is used to servo-control the rotation speed of the stepper motor 124.

[0051] like Figure 6 As shown, the image acquisition unit 2 includes a flotation housing mechanism 21 and a concentrate collecting tank 22. The flotation housing mechanism 21 includes a box 211, a rectangular light source 212 and an annular shadowless light source 213. Two rectangular light sources 212 are provided. The two rectangular light sources 212 are respectively arranged on two opposite side walls of the box 211, and the annular shadowless light source 213 is arranged on the top of the box 211. The flotation unit 1 and the concentrate collecting tank 22 are both arranged in the box 211, and the concentrate overflowing from the overflow tank 112 enters the concentrate collecting tank 22.
[0052] It should be noted that if Figure 6 As shown, the rectangular light source 212 passes through a bracket 214 , and the bracket 214 is a locking hinge for adjusting the irradiation angle of the rectangular light source 212 .
[0053] Preferably, the box body 211 is a rectangular box body with a door. The interior of the box body 211 is evenly coated with black paint to prevent interference from external light sources.
[0054] like Figure 6 As shown, the image acquisition unit 2 also includes an industrial camera 23 and a light source controller. The industrial camera 23 is arranged in the middle of the annular shadowless light source 213 and passes through the annular shadowless light source 213, and is equipped with a variable zoom and aperture industrial lens to collect flotation foam images. The light source controller is used to adjust the color temperature, hue and brightness of the rectangular light source 212 and the annular shadowless light source 213, so as to adjust the optimal image sampling environment, reduce the influence of brightness, color temperature and hue on ash recognition, and highlight the foam texture characteristics.
[0055] Furthermore, the industrial camera 23 is arranged on a linear guide rail, so that the industrial camera 23 can move in the vertical direction. The vertical adjustment structure is not limited to the linear guide rail, and it only needs to be able to realize the vertical adjustment of the industrial camera 23.
[0056] Based on the above-mentioned flotation unit 1, normal flotation conditions and extreme flotation conditions are constructed, and multi-condition experiments are carried out to obtain flotation foam image data sets and multi-condition labels. Image features are extracted with the help of machine vision algorithms to extract flotation foam image color, size, texture, half-life, flow rate and other features. Image feature recognition and analysis use machine learning modeling to identify and classify the extracted features, and the results output through regression analysis include the grade of concentrate, the amount of reagent added and the entrainment rate. The model is trained through a multi-condition database to achieve accurate analysis of the foam image and output the corresponding conditions to achieve real-time online detection of various parameters of the slurry.
[0057] Specifically, the collected foam image sequence is subjected to image cropping, image enhancement and other preprocessing, and the images are subjected to CNN feature extraction to realize foam state recognition based on foam morphology, wherein the CNN network backbone is pre-trained with open source conventional data sets to reduce the demand for foam training sets; at the same time, the foam image is segmented based on the watershed algorithm, and the individual bubbles are analyzed to obtain information such as bubble size and centroid coordinates, and the change of bubble centroid is calculated through the front and back time indexes to obtain the bubble motion velocity field, and finally the foam state, bubble size, bubble velocity and color feature data are subjected to a nonlinear regression model based on concentrate grade and reagent dosage, thereby realizing flotation multi-condition recognition.
[0058] In this embodiment, the flotation unit 1 is arranged in the box 211, and the flotation foam is imaged by the industrial camera 23. The feature extraction and working condition analysis unit 3 extracts and analyzes the features of the collected image, thereby realizing flotation multi-working condition identification. There is no need to collect industrial images on site, and there will be no lagging relationship between the foam state and the flotation index, and there will be no distortion of data labels. Extreme working conditions can be created in the laboratory, the data is enriched, and accurate flotation data can be obtained, providing useful guidance for actual production.
[0059] It is worth noting that the system of this embodiment is a miniaturized system suitable for laboratory operation. It can construct multiple working conditions in the laboratory and extract and analyze flotation foam images. There is no need to collect data on site. It is easy to operate and can create extreme working conditions in the laboratory. The data is substantial and accurate.
[0060] Example 2
[0061] Another specific embodiment of the present invention is as follows Figure 8 As shown, a method for flotation foam image feature extraction and multi-condition identification is disclosed, using the flotation foam image feature extraction and multi-condition identification system of Example 1, and the steps include:
[0062] Step 1: Air tightness test.
[0063] Use pure water to test the sealing of the flotation cell 11. Pass a certain amount of pure water into the flotation cell 111, observe the air pipe connected to the air pump, adjust the gas flow rate in advance through the flow meter and judge whether the inflation device is well sealed to ensure that there is no external interference affecting the experimental results.
[0064] Step 2: Prepare samples and debug the light source and industrial camera 23.
[0065] For example, taking copper-nickel sulfide ore as an example, samples were prepared, copper-nickel sulfide ores of different grades were prepared in advance, the copper-nickel sulfide ore was crushed and ground, and the effects of different slurry concentrations, aeration volumes, and reagent dosages on the flotation foam state were explored.
[0066] Turn on the rectangular light source 212 and the annular shadowless light source 213, adjust the color temperature, hue and brightness, so as to adjust the best image sampling environment, reduce the influence of brightness, color temperature and hue on gray recognition, and highlight the foam texture characteristics. Start the industrial camera 23, set the frame rate, sensitivity, exposure time, white balance, sampling time and other parameters to ensure that the photos taken are clear.
[0067] Step 3: Place the flotation unit 1 into the box 211 and collect the flotation foam image.
[0068] Step 3.1: Add water and start stirring.
[0069] The flotation unit 1 that has passed the test flotation cell 11 is placed in the box 211, and then 1L of water is injected into the flotation cell 11, and the stepper motor 124 is started, with the rotation speed set at 1600 r / min.
[0070] Step 3.2: Add minerals and pH adjuster.
[0071] Add the weighed mineral (such as copper-nickel sulfide ore) and pH adjuster.
[0072] Step 3.3: After stirring for 60 seconds, add the collector.
[0073] Step 3.4: Add the foaming agent after stirring for 90 seconds.
[0074] Step 3.5: Inflate and collect flotation foam images.
[0075] After stirring for a while, the air pump is turned on to start inflation. At the same time, the industrial camera 23 is used to continuously take pictures during the flotation process, ensuring that the light source is stable during the shooting process, the time intervals of the picture sets are the same, and the collected pictures are stored in a storage device.
[0076] It should be noted that this step requires collecting flotation foam images under different operating parameters. Considering the factors of pulp concentration, aeration, collector dosage, frother dosage, and pH, preferably, the specific multi-operating parameters are shown in the following table.
[0077] Variable Name scope unit gradient Slurry concentration 5%-40% — 5% Inflation volume 0.2-1.0 <![CDATA[m 3 / h]]> 0.2 Collector dosage 0-200 g / t 20 Foaming agent dosage 0-50 g / t 10 pH 3-12 — 3
[0078] Step 4: Image feature extraction.
[0079] According to different times and working conditions of the flotation process, the flotation foam image area that needs to be identified is selected and segmented to obtain data set I.
[0080] After completing the image segmentation, the features of the segmented images are extracted, and the watershed algorithm is used to mark and segment the bubbles. The equivalent area circle radius of each segmented area is counted as the bubble size, and the coordinates of the bubble centroid are calculated. The overall foam image is divided into blocks, and the bubble flow field velocity is calculated through the graphic sequence of the coordinates of the bubble centroids.
[0081] The bubble state labels are assigned according to the foam morphology in the data set I. Preferably, the foam is classified into state labels such as "virtual", "real", "brittle", and "sticky". Classification training is performed using a convolutional neural network to obtain a convolutional network for identifying foam state classification. The backbone of the CNN network is pre-trained with open source conventional data sets such as imagene, and some layers are frozen to reduce the demand for foam training sets.
[0082] Step 5: Operating condition analysis.
[0083] The extracted bubble flow field velocity, bubble size distribution, bubble color, and bubble state label features obtained through convolutional neural network (CNN) are subjected to multi-factor nonlinear regression algorithms such as MLP and random forest to output corresponding working conditions such as concentrate grade, reagent addition evaluation and other parameters. The current working condition data is compared with the target working condition such as target concentrate grade and other information, and combined with the reagent addition evaluation, the dosage adjustment of the flotation process is guided.
[0084] In this embodiment, while the flotation process is completed in the box 211, the industrial camera 23 automatically obtains the flotation foam image, and the feature extraction and working condition analysis unit 3 extracts and analyzes the collected image features, thereby realizing flotation multi-working condition identification. There is no need to collect industrial images on site, and there will be no lagging relationship between the foam state and the flotation index, and there will be no distortion of data labels. Extreme working conditions can be created in the laboratory, the data is enriched, and accurate flotation data can be obtained, providing useful guidance for actual production.
[0085] This embodiment quantifies the multiphase characteristic indicators of foam morphology, size distribution, and bubble color respectively, and has a feature extraction method that is universal for various foams. For different types of minerals, it only needs to train the final nonlinear regression model with a small amount of data sets to obtain better working condition prediction results. Compared with the traditional "end-to-end" prediction model, the demand for data sets is greatly reduced.
[0086] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
