DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0032] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless explicitly defined and limited, the terms "mounting", "connection", "connecting", "fixing" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be fixed connection, or detachable connection, or integrally connected; it can be mechanical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; it can be the communication inside two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0033] As shown in Figure 1 , the preferred embodiment of the present application provides a multi-particle-size mineral particle screening system, which comprises a feeding device, a first cyclone device, a second cyclone device and a filtering and classifying device.

[0034] As shown in Figure 2 , the feeding device comprises a feed tank 1, and the top of the feed tank 1 is provided with a raw material inlet 2, through which the raw material to be screened enters the feed tank 1. A rotatable stirring propeller 3 is arranged inside the feed tank 1 and is driven by an external motor 4 to fully stir the raw material and make it uniformly mixed. In addition, the top wall of the feed tank 1 is provided with a plurality of exhaust holes 5, through which the excess gas is discharged during the stirring process. The bottom of the feed tank 1 is connected with a feed pipe 6, and the feed pipe 6 is provided with a booster pump 7. The feed pipe 6 is connected with the first cyclone device, and the fully mixed raw material is input into the first cyclone device through the booster pump 7.

[0035] As shown in Figure 3As shown, the first-stage cyclone device includes an outer cyclone separator 8, an inner cyclone separator 9, a first-stage overflow pipe 10, a spiral cone disk 11, and a turntable 12.

[0036] The outer hydrocyclone 8, inner hydrocyclone 9, and primary overflow pipe 10 are arranged coaxially and spaced apart from the outside to the inside. The outer hydrocyclone 8 consists of a conical section, a cylindrical section, and another conical section from top to bottom. Both conical sections gradually narrow from top to bottom. The top of the upper conical section of the outer hydrocyclone 8 is sealed. A primary feed inlet (not shown in the figure) is provided tangentially on the side wall of the upper conical section of the outer hydrocyclone 8. The primary feed inlet is connected to the feed pipe 6, and the raw material enters the outer hydrocyclone 8 through the primary feed inlet. An outer underflow outlet 13 is provided at the bottom of the lower conical section of the outer hydrocyclone 8.

[0037] The inner hydrocyclone 9 consists of a cylindrical section and a conical section from top to bottom, with the conical section gradually narrowing from top to bottom. The cylindrical section of the inner hydrocyclone 9 is located inside the cylindrical section of the outer hydrocyclone 8, and the conical section of the inner hydrocyclone 9 is located inside the lower conical section of the outer hydrocyclone 8. The top of the cylindrical section of the inner hydrocyclone 9 is open, and an outward-curved edge 14 is provided at this opening. This outward-curved edge 14 is located at the junction of the cylindrical section and the upper conical section of the outer hydrocyclone 8. The bottom of the conical section of the inner hydrocyclone 9 is provided with an inner bottom flow port 15, which is connected to a primary feed pipe 16, which extends outward through the outer hydrocyclone 8.

[0038] The bottom end of the first-stage overflow pipe 10 extends into the middle section of the inner layer hydrocyclone 9, and the top end extends out from the top of the outer layer hydrocyclone 8.

[0039] The spiral cone disk 11 is spirally arranged on the primary overflow pipe 10, specifically in the section of the primary overflow pipe 10 located within the cone section of the outer hydrocyclone 8. Its function is to allow the raw material to enter the outer hydrocyclone 8 at a certain pressure and velocity, flow along the spiral cone disk 11, increase the tangential velocity, reduce the axial velocity, and promote the formation of vortices.

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, the turntable 12 is installed on the first-stage overflow pipe 10, specifically in the section of the first-stage overflow pipe 10 located within the inner layer hydrocyclone 9 cylinder section. Both the upper and lower surfaces of the turntable 12 are smooth conical surfaces 17.

[0041] When the raw material enters the outer hydrocyclone 8, the coarser particles, which are subject to greater centrifugal force, will flow downward along the inner wall of the outer hydrocyclone 8 and be discharged through the outer bottom outlet 13. In addition, the coarser particles flow downward at a faster speed, making them more likely to impact the inner wall and bounce upward. The outward-curved edge 14 at the top opening of the inner hydrocyclone 9 acts as a barrier.

[0042] Finer particles, subjected to less centrifugal force, enter the inner hydrocyclone 9. Due to the obstruction of the conical surface on the rotating disk 12, more material enters the outer vortex of the inner hydrocyclone 9. Thus, the relatively finer particles in the outer vortex experience less centrifugal force and form an inner vortex, which is then discharged through the primary overflow pipe 10. The relatively coarser particles in the outer vortex experience greater centrifugal force and flow downwards along the inner wall of the inner hydrocyclone 9, being discharged through the primary feed pipe 16. Additionally, relatively coarser particles may also exist in the inner vortex; during their upward movement, the obstruction of the lower conical surface of the rotating disk 12 causes them to return to the outer vortex.

[0043] The secondary cyclone device includes at least two sets of secondary cyclone units, and in this embodiment, two sets of secondary cyclone units are preferably provided. The secondary cyclone unit includes a secondary cyclone 18 and a filter 19. The secondary cyclone 18 is composed of a cylindrical section and a conical section from top to bottom.

[0044] Filter 19 is fixed inside the cylindrical section of the secondary cyclone separator 18, such as Figure 5 As shown, the filter 19 includes a housing 22, with a filter chamber formed inside the housing 22, and a plurality of filter holes 23 provided on the housing 22.

[0045] The secondary overflow pipe 20 extends into the filter chamber. The top of the primary overflow pipe 10 is connected to each secondary feed port through the diversion pipe 24. Each secondary underflow port 21 is connected to the secondary material pipe 26 through the collection pipe 25.

[0046] The relatively fine particles separated by the inner hydrocyclone enter the secondary hydrocyclone through the primary overflow pipe. After being filtered by the filter, the almost particle-free liquid is discharged and collected through the secondary overflow pipe, while the remaining raw material is discharged through the secondary feed pipe.

[0047] like Figure 6 As shown, the filtration and grading device includes a grading box 27. Inside the grading box 27, a primary filter plate 28, a secondary filter plate 29, and a tertiary filter plate 30 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom, all tilted in the same direction. In this embodiment, all three filter plates are arranged in parallel, with the left side lower than the right. The pore size of the primary filter plate 28 is larger than that of the secondary filter plate 29, and the pore size of the secondary filter plate 29 is larger than that of the tertiary filter plate 30. A primary collection port 31 is located at the lower end of the primary filter plate 28, a secondary collection port 32 is located at the lower end of the secondary filter plate 29, and a tertiary collection port 33 is located at the lower end of the tertiary filter plate 30.

[0049] The outer bottom flow port 13 extends into the classification box 27 and is located at the upper end of the first filter plate 28. The relatively coarse particle raw material discharged from the outer bottom flow port 13 enters the first filter plate 28, first passes through the filtering of the first filter plate 28, the large particles flow out of the first collecting port 31 and are collected, the material filtered out of the first filter plate 28 falls on the first collecting slide 34 and slides into the second filter plate 29, passes through the filtering of the second filter plate 29, the relatively large particles flow out of the second collecting port 32 and are collected, the material filtered out of the second filter plate 29 falls on the second collecting slide 35 and slides into the third filter plate 30, passes through the filtering of the third filter plate 30, the small particles flow out of the third collecting port 33 and are collected, and the material filtered out of the third filter plate 30 falls at the bottom of the classification box 27.

[0050] The first material pipe 16 extends into the classification box 27 and is located at the upper end of the second filter plate 29. The relatively coarse particle raw material discharged from the first material pipe 16 enters the second filter plate 29, passes through the filtering of the second filter plate 29, the relatively large particles flow out of the second collecting port 32 and are collected, the material filtered out of the second filter plate 29 falls on the second collecting slide 35 and slides into the third filter plate 30, passes through the filtering of the third filter plate 30, the small particles flow out of the third collecting port 33 and are collected, and the material filtered out of the third filter plate 30 falls at the bottom of the classification box 27.

[0051] The second material pipe 26 extends into the classification box 27 and is located at the upper end of the third filter plate 30. The remaining raw material discharged from the second material pipe 26 enters the third filter plate 30, passes through the filtering of the third filter plate 30, the small particles flow out of the third collecting port 33 and are collected, and the material filtered out of the third filter plate 30 falls at the bottom of the classification box 27.
