[0039] In this embodiment, the magnetic separation device 15 is rigidly connected between the outlet flange of the buffer charging bin and the inlet flange of the feed pipe; the magnetic field strength of the magnetic separation device can be adjusted in the range of 5000-15000 Gauss.

[0040] In this embodiment, the magnetic separation device 15 also includes a Hall sensor and a current transmitter; the Hall sensor is used to monitor the density of magnetic impurities adsorbed by the magnetic separation device; the current transmitter is used to convert the magnetic field strength attenuation signal into a standard industrial signal; the magnetic separation device is linked to the discharge valve, and automatically suspends feeding when it detects that the iron impurities exceed the limit.

Specifically, the impurity collection bin is a drawer-style bin with a built-in liquid level sensor that alarms when impurity accumulation exceeds a limit.

[0056] (4) The pre-crushing device pre-processes the agglomerated materials to ensure the uniformity of the feed and improve the crushing efficiency; the air flow nozzle with a gradually narrowing and widening nozzle design, combined with inert gas, improves the kinetic energy conversion efficiency and prevents the risk of explosion of flammable / oxidizable materials;

[0057] (5) The conical classifier barrel enhances the stability of the airflow and achieves precise classification of micron-sized particles; gas freezing, filtration, adsorption and drying processes ensure the cleanliness of the airflow, avoid equipment blockage, and reduce dust removal energy consumption.

[0058] The working principle of the present invention is:

[0059] 1. Feed demagnetization stage:

[0060] The material is sucked in by a vacuum feeder to ensure clean feeding. The pre-crushing device performs preliminary breaking up of materials that are prone to agglomeration or have poor fluidity, ensuring the continuity and uniformity of subsequent feeding and avoiding blockage. The material flows through the magnetic separation device to absorb ferromagnetic impurities; the intercepted impurities enter the vibrating screen with the material and are separated by tilting vibration into a drawer-type collection bin; the processed material falls into the buffer feeding bin for temporary storage. The Hall sensor monitors the impurity density. If it exceeds the limit, it outputs a signal through the current transmitter, which links the discharge valve to suspend feeding; the material flow rate is precisely controlled by the discharge valve, and the material is stably and quantitatively delivered to the crushing chamber of the main crusher through the feed pipe.

[0061] 2. Crushing stage:

[0062] After being compressed by a gas compressor, the inert gas passes through a freeze dryer to remove moisture, an impurity filter to remove particulate matter, a gas storage tank for pressure stabilization, and finally an adsorption dryer for deep drying, resulting in ultra-dry, high-purity, high-pressure compressed gas that meets pulverization requirements. The dry gas is accelerated into a supersonic flow through a gradually converging and widening nozzle, injected into the pulverizer's multiple air inlets, and pulverized by high-speed collision with the material.

[0063] 3. Classification and collection stage:

[0064] The crushed material and airflow mixture rises and enters the grading system. The motor drives the turbine to rotate at high speed, creating a powerful centrifugal field. Because the centrifugal force is greater than the drag force of the airflow, coarse particles are flung toward the inner wall of the classifier barrel and fall downward along the wall, returning to the main crusher through the bottom feed port for further crushing. Because the centrifugal force is less than the drag force of the airflow, fine powder is carried by the rising airflow through the grading turbine blades and enters the subsequent collection equipment through the top discharge port. Qualified material and airflow mixture enters the pulse dust collector, which collects the fine powder. The high-voltage electromagnetic fence at the fan outlet captures escaping micron-sized iron particles, ensuring the absolute cleanliness of the finished product. The clean air is extracted by the centrifugal fan and discharged or recycled.

[0065] The structures, functions, and connections disclosed herein may be implemented in other ways. For example, the embodiments described above are merely illustrative, and the pre-crushing device may be installed in other ways, such as multiple components being combined or integrated into another component. Furthermore, the functional components described in the various embodiments herein may be integrated into a single functional component, each functional component may exist physically separately, or two or more functional components may be integrated into a single functional component.

[0066] The foregoing description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the form disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. Rather, the present invention can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments and can be modified within the scope of the concept described herein through the above teachings or techniques or knowledge in the relevant field. Modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention are intended to be protected by the appended claims.
