Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of coal gangue sorting, and specifically discloses a hydraulic manipulator for sorting extra-large gangue on a raw coal hand-sorting belt on a well. Background Art
[0002] During coal mining and processing, a large amount of gangue is mixed in. Gangue is solid waste discharged during the coal mining and coal washing processes. Usually, raw coal is transported from underground by conveyors to the surface. After crushing and vibratory screening, some raw coal containing large pieces of gangue, anchors and other impurities enters the hand-sorting conveyor. If the gangue is not sorted, the combustion efficiency of the raw coal will be greatly reduced, and it will also cause great pollution to the environment. In addition, the combustion of gangue will produce a large amount of harmful gases, which can cause chronic bronchitis and asthma. On the contrary, if the gangue is sorted out, the low-quality coal and pyrite can be selected, which can be used for power generation and as raw materials for the production of building materials. Therefore, sorting the gangue in the raw coal is an essential step.
[0003] Currently, the main methods for sorting coal gangue include wet sorting, dry sorting, manual sorting, and robotic gripping. The wet sorting method, which primarily includes heavy media and jigging, utilizes the different densities of coal and gangue to separate the two layers by placing the raw coal in a solution. However, this method requires large equipment, complex processes, low sorting efficiency, and environmental pollution. The dry sorting method utilizes dual-energy gamma-ray transmission identification and sorting, taking advantage of the different light transmittances of coal and gangue. This method is expensive, inefficient, and emits radiation. Manual gangue sorting requires belt downtime, is labor-intensive, and prone to misselection or omission. Furthermore, robotic gripping is an alternative, but its effectiveness is unsatisfactory. This is primarily due to the varying shapes, positions, and postures of individual gangue rocks on the conveyor line. During the gripping process, the gripper often collides with rocks, or fails to grasp rocks due to improper gripping posture. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] In order to better understand the present invention, the content of the present invention is further clearly set forth below in conjunction with the examples, but the protection content of the present invention is not limited to the following examples. In the following description, a large number of specific details are provided in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be implemented without one or more of these details.
[0015] Combined with attachment Figure 1-5 The present invention describes in detail a hydraulic manipulator for sorting extra-large gangue from a hand-selected belt of raw coal on a well, comprising a gantry mounted across the hand-selected belt, a gantry protection beam 1 and vertical columns 10 arranged at both ends of the beam 1, and inclined braces 2 respectively arranged between the columns 10 and the ground. A large swing arm 4 is arranged below the gantry, and the upper end of the large swing arm 4 is hingedly connected to the gantry beam 1, and the lower end of the large swing arm 4 is hingedly connected to the upper end of the claw 5. A large swing arm oil cylinder 3 is arranged between the large swing arm 4 and the gantry beam 1, and the tail end of the cylinder barrel of the large swing arm oil cylinder 3 is hingedly connected to the gantry beam 1, and the end of the cylinder rod of the large swing arm oil cylinder 3 is hingedly connected to the left middle side of the large swing arm 4. The cylinder rod of the large swing arm oil cylinder 3 can push the large swing arm 4 to swing left and right, and a claw oil cylinder 6 is arranged between the large swing arm 4 and the claw 5, and the tail end of the cylinder barrel of the claw cylinder 6 is hinged to the large swing arm 4 The right side of the middle is hingedly connected, and the rod end of the claw cylinder 6 is hingedly connected to the upper end of the claw 5. The claw cylinder 6 cylinder rod can push the claw 5 to push the large gangue along the hand-selected belt surface to push the large gangue out of the belt surface. The hydraulic pump station controls the valve group to supply oil to the large swing arm cylinder 3 and the claw cylinder 6 according to the program timing. The large swing arm cylinder 3 cylinder rod pushes the large swing arm 4 to swing at high speed. At the same time, the claw cylinder 6 cylinder rod pushes the claw 5 to achieve protective pushing of the claw 5 along the belt surface to push the large gangue out of the belt surface and realize the removal of the gangue. When the large swing arm 4 returns, the claw cylinder 6 cylinder rod is retracted to retract the claw 5 to avoid damage to the hand-selected belt. It also avoids bringing out coal blocks or other items on the belt surface during the return journey. In the process of removing the gangue, it is avoided that the existing manipulator cannot grasp the stone due to inappropriate grasping posture during the grasping process and the mechanical claw fingers collide with the stone; The present invention is used for a hydraulic manipulator for sorting extra-large gangue on a manual belt of raw coal at a well. It adopts a two-axis hydraulic manipulator arm. High-speed hydraulic cylinders are respectively provided on both sides of a large swing arm to avoid the rigid impact of the large gangue when the claws instantaneously push the large gangue. The large swing arm and the claws are driven by a hydraulic system and a high-speed hydraulic cylinder to move, which can absorb the impact caused by high-speed starting and stopping. The hydraulic system adopts a load-sensitive hydraulic pump. When there is no large gangue task, the motor runs close to no-load, and can respond in time when there is a large gangue task. It has a large flow and pressure output, perfectly combines energy saving and reliability, and has high practical value.

After the gangue identification unit identifies the gangue, it sends the relevant information of the gangue to the control system. The control system calculates the time for the hand-selection belt to transport the gangue to the hydraulic manipulator for sorting extra-large gangue of the hand-selection belt of raw coal on the well according to the relevant information and position information of the gangue and the running speed of the hand-selection belt. The control system instructs the large swing arm cylinder 3 and the claw cylinder 6 to move according to the calculated time. The cylinder rod of the large swing arm cylinder 3 pushes the large swing arm 4 to swing at high speed. At the same time, the cylinder rod of the claw cylinder 6 pushes the claw 5, so that the claw 5 can protectively push the large gangue along the belt surface, and push the large gangue to the inclined chute dropout port at the edge of the belt surface, so as to realize automatic removal and remote control of the gangue.

The pin shaft 71 at the upper end of the large swing arm 4 and the large swing arm 4 move synchronously. A sensing plate 72 is provided at the other end of the pin shaft 71 at the upper end of the large swing arm 4. A proximity switch protection box 73 is provided on the outer cover of the sensing plate 72. The end of the proximity switch protection box 73 adjacent to the pin shaft 71 is fixedly connected to the ear seat 2 9. As attached Figure 1 and 3 As shown, when the hinged component A is the pusher claw 5 and the corresponding hinged component B is the large swing arm 4, one end of the pin shaft 71 at the lower end of the large swing arm 4 is fixedly connected to the pusher claw 5 via a connecting plate 76. The pin shaft 71 at the lower end of the large swing arm 4 and the pusher claw 5 move synchronously. A sensing plate 72 is provided at the other end of the pin shaft 71 at the lower end of the large swing arm 4. A proximity switch protection box 73 is provided on the outer shell of the sensing plate 72.

The end of the proximity switch protection box 73 facing away from the pin shaft 71 is detachably connected to a protection box cover 75. At least two intrinsically safe proximity switches 74 that are matched with the sensor plates 72 are provided in the proximity switch protection box 73. The intrinsically safe proximity switches 74 sense the extension or retraction status of the large swing arm cylinder 3 or the pusher claw cylinder 6 by changing the angular position of the corresponding sensor plates 72.
[0019] As an optional design, the hydraulic manipulator for sorting extra-large gangue on the manual belt of raw coal in the well is preferably used. Ear seat 1 8 and ear seat 2 9 are arranged on the left and right sides of the gantry beam 1 at intervals. Ear seat 1 8 and ear seat 2 9 are respectively detachably connected to the gantry beam 1. The tail end of the cylinder barrel of the large swing arm cylinder 3 is hingedly connected to the ear seat 1 8, and the upper end of the large swing arm 4 is hingedly connected to the ear seat 2 9 through the pin shaft 71.

[0021] The working process of the present invention is as follows: During operation, after the gangue identification unit identifies the gangue, it sends the relevant information of the gangue to the control system. The control system calculates the time it takes for the hand-selection belt to transport the gangue to the bottom of the hydraulic manipulator for sorting extra-large gangue by hand-selection belt of raw coal on the well according to the relevant information and position information of the gangue and the running speed of the hand-selection belt. The control system instructs the large swing arm cylinder 3 and the claw cylinder 6 to move according to the calculated time, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 4 As shown, the large swing arm oil cylinder 3 pushes the large swing arm 4 to swing at high speed. At the same time, the pusher claw oil cylinder 6 contracts and the pusher claw 5 is lifted to a certain height, so that the pusher claw 5 can protect and push the large gangue along the belt surface, push the large gangue out of the belt surface, realize the automatic removal of the gangue, and avoid scratching the horizontal hand-selected flat belt. After the action is completed, as shown in the attached figure Figure 5As shown, the large swing arm cylinder 3 contracts and pulls the large swing arm 4 back. At the same time, the cylinder rod of the pusher claw cylinder 6 is retracted to retract the pusher claw 5. The large swing arm 4 and the pusher claw 5 return to the initial state and wait for the next work instruction.
