[0067] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0068] This invention provides an energy-saving motor. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 4 Energy-saving motors, including grinding motor 10;
[0069] The output shaft of the grinding motor 10 is connected to a drive gear 11 via a keyway, and a driven gear 12 is meshed with one side of the drive gear 11.
[0070] The grinding motor 10 is electrically equipped with a load sensing module, which includes a current sensor, a torque sensor and a power sensor. The load sensing module is electrically connected to a controller via wires, and the controller is electrically connected to an actuator via wires. The actuator and the grinding motor 10 are electrically connected.
[0071] The current sensor is connected in series in the three-phase power supply circuit of the grinding motor 10, the torque sensor is installed on the output shaft of the grinding motor 10, and the power sensor is connected in parallel at the power supply terminal of the grinding motor 10.
[0072] The sensor collects load-related parameters of the grinding motor 10 in real time, such as current, torque and power. Combined with the characteristics of the grinding process, the controller automatically adjusts the motor speed, excitation current and starting mode to make the motor run in the high-efficiency range of the load rate while meeting the grinding efficiency requirements.
[0073] By optimizing electromagnetic design and reducing mechanical losses, the grinding load often fluctuates with the hardness of the material and the feed rate. The energy-saving motor, combined with the optimized start-up and speed regulation design, has a more prominent energy-saving effect under light load. The energy-saving design can meet the "dual carbon" compliance requirements, reduce the carbon emissions of enterprises, comply with the industrial energy-saving transformation policy, and reduce the environmental compliance costs of the grinding production line.
[0074] The present invention also provides a lithium mica ball milling device.
[0075] Please see Figures 1 to 11 It also includes a base plate 1, a transmission seat 2, a mounting plate 3, a grinding assembly 6, and a material handling mechanism 5;
[0076] The transmission seat 2 is fixed to the top of the base plate 1, the mounting plate 3 is fixed to the top of the transmission seat 2, and the mounting plate 3 is respectively fixed to the top of the base 4 and the grinding seat 16. The grinding seat 16 is rotatably connected to the main turntable 20, and the auxiliary turntable 21 is rotatably installed above the main turntable 20.
[0077] The grinding assembly 6 includes a chassis 61 mounted on top of the sub-rotor 21. A clamping plate 62 is fixed on the top of the chassis 61. A storage tank 65 is placed at the top axis of the chassis 61. A clamping strip 66 is fixed on the upper surface of the chassis 61 and on one side of the storage tank 65. A fastening plate 63 is installed inside the clamping plate 62. A threaded disc 64 is threadedly installed in the middle of the fastening plate 63. Two retaining rings 67 are fixed on the outer wall of the storage tank 65, and a gap is formed between the two retaining rings 67.
[0078] The material handling mechanism 5 includes a push cylinder 51 mounted on the upper surface of the base 4. A mounting box 52 is mounted at the front end of the push cylinder 51. A first gear 53 and a second gear 54 are rotatably connected inside the mounting box 52. A trigger gear 55 is connected to the keyway at the shaft of the first gear 53. A positioning plate 56 is mounted on the top of the mounting plate 3 and on one side of the base 4. A rack 57 is mounted on the outer wall of the positioning plate 56. A sleeve 58 is fixed to the outer wall of the mounting box 52. A rotating rod 59 is rotatably connected inside the sleeve 58. A limiting plate 513 is fixed inside the sleeve 58 and on the outer wall of the rotating rod 59. A torsion spring 514 is sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating rod 59 and on one side of the limiting plate 513. A gripper 510 is fixed at the outer end of the rotating rod 59. A magnetic block 511 is embedded inside the gripper 510. A top rod 512 is fixed on the side wall of the platform 4 and in the horizontal direction of the pushing electric cylinder 51. A material drop box 9 is provided on the top of the mounting plate 3 and below the gripper 510.
[0079] The first gear 53 and the second gear 54 are adapted to each other, and the trigger gear 55 and the rack 57 mesh with each other.
[0080] The gripper 510 and the storage tank 65 are in the same horizontal direction, and the magnetic block 511 and the storage tank 65 are magnetically attracted to each other.
[0081] Please see Figure 7 In the initial state, the gripper 510 is far away from the storage tank 65, so during normal planetary rotary grinding, it can be ensured that the grinding process and the material handling mechanism 5 do not interfere with each other.
[0082] Please see Figure 8 After grinding is completed, the user can start the electric cylinder 51 to control the mounting box 52 to move the gripper 510 close to the storage tank 65. The gripper 510 can be directly inserted into the gap between the two retaining rings 67. When the gripping is stable, the magnetic block 511 inside the gripper 510 will attract the storage tank 65.
[0083] Please see Figure 9 After clamping, the user needs to control the push cylinder 51 to move the mounting box 52 and the gripper 510 towards the rack 57. When the trigger gear 55 contacts the rack 57, it will mesh and rotate. At this time, the trigger gear 55 will drive the first gear 53 to mesh and drive the second gear 54 to drive the entire gripper 510 to control the internal storage tank 65 to flip. During the flipping process, the lithium mica inside the storage tank 65 can be poured out and automatically picked up. After picking up the material, the user can continue to control the gripper 510 to move towards the push rod 512. The push rod 512 will be forceful and the storage tank 65 on the gripper 510 can be separated from the magnetic block 511.
[0084] Please see Figure 11 It is understandable that during the rotation of the second gear 54, the rotating rod 59 will synchronously drive the gripper 510 to rotate. Then, it is installed through the torsion spring 514. Therefore, when the rotating rod 59 rotates, the entire torsion spring 514 will be subjected to force and torsion. When the trigger gear 55 is separated from the rack 57, the torsion spring 514 can quickly ensure that the gripper 510 returns to its initial state.
[0085] This embodiment:
[0086] The device is equipped with a material handling mechanism 5, which can improve grinding efficiency and is suitable for batch processing of lithium mica. Traditional manual clamping and unloading operations are cumbersome. Automatic clamping is controlled by pushing the electric cylinder 51. The clamping force and coaxiality are precisely controllable, avoiding vibration of the storage tank 65 caused by loose manual clamping, ensuring uniform grinding of lithium mica particles and reducing rework rate.
[0087] Secondly, it can reduce the loss of lepidolite material and improve resource utilization. Lepidolite has a low density and is easily adsorbed on the inner wall of the grinding tank. Automatic feeding combined with tilting can increase the cleaning rate of residual material in the tank and avoid waste of high-value lepidolite raw materials. In addition, manual feeding requires manual dumping of materials, which can easily generate dust or mix in impurities. Automatic feeding can ensure the purity of raw materials for subsequent lithium extraction processes.
[0088] Second embodiment:
[0089] Please see Figures 1 to 6 Inside the transmission seat 2, at the center of the driven gear 12, a drive pulley 13 is connected via a keyway. A driven pulley 14 is rotatably connected to one side of the drive pulley 13. A belt 15 is fitted on the outer wall of the drive pulley 13 and the driven pulley 14. An internal gear ring 18 is installed on the inner wall of the grinding seat 16. Inside the internal gear ring 18, at the center of the driven pulley 14, a main gear 17 is connected via a keyway. Secondary gears 19 are meshed on both sides of the main gear 17.
[0090] The secondary gear 19 and the internal gear ring 18 mesh with each other, the drive pulley 13 and the mounting plate 3 are rotatably connected, and the axis of the secondary gear 19 and the axis of the secondary turntable 21 are connected by a keyway.
[0091] Please see Figure 3 When the user starts the grinding motor 10, the drive gear 11 meshes with the driven gear 12 to rotate. The driven gear 12 can drive the drive pulley 13 and the transmission belt 15 to control the driven pulley 14 to rotate.
[0092] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 The driven pulley 14 can drive the main gear 17 to rotate. During the rotation of the main gear 17, the meshing transmission side auxiliary gears 19 revolve around the axis of the internal gear ring 18. Furthermore, the auxiliary gears 19 can also rotate on their own axis while revolving around the axis.
[0093] Please see Figure 6 Affected by the rotation of the secondary gear 19, it can simultaneously drive the main turntable 20 and the secondary turntable 21 to rotate while revolving, thus enabling planetary grinding of lithium mica inside the storage tank 65.
[0094] This embodiment:
[0095] The composite motion enhances grinding. The planetary rotation, through a combination of revolution and rotation, generates strong impact, friction, and shear forces on the grinding balls under centrifugal force, which can quickly refine materials to the micron or even nanometer scale. Furthermore, it can be combined with multiple tanks for simultaneous operation, supporting multiple batches of grinding at the same time. The tank capacity is available in a wide range, which can meet the needs of small-batch research and development in the laboratory as well as the needs of large-scale industrial production. The speed ratio of revolution and rotation is precisely controllable, and the movement trajectory of the grinding balls in the tank is regular. The force on the material is consistent, avoiding local over-grinding or insufficient grinding. The finished product has a narrow particle size distribution and uniformity better than traditional ball mills. The tank adopts a sealed design to isolate it from external air and dust pollution. It is especially suitable for materials that are easily oxidized, easily affected by moisture, or have high purity requirements, while reducing material volatilization and loss.
[0096] Third embodiment:
[0097] Please see Figures 12 to 13 It also includes auxiliary mechanisms 8;
[0098] A bracket 7 is installed on the upper surface of the base plate 1 and above the transmission seat 2. The auxiliary mechanism 8 includes a lifting electric cylinder 81 installed on the upper surface of the bracket 7. A lifting sleeve 82 is installed at the bottom end of the lifting electric cylinder 81. A connecting sleeve 83 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the lifting sleeve 82. A sliding rod 84 is slidably connected inside the lifting sleeve 82 and below the connecting sleeve 83. A limiting sleeve 85 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the sliding rod 84. A screw 86 is fixedly provided at the top end of the sliding rod 84. A return spring 87 is sleeved on the outer wall of the screw 86. A rotating frame 88 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the sliding rod 84. A pointed cone 89 is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the sliding rod 84.
[0099] The length of the rotating frame 88 is equal to the inner diameter of the storage tank 65, and the screw 86 and the connecting sleeve 83 are connected by threads.
[0100] Please see Figure 12 In the second embodiment, during operation, the user can move the clamped storage tank 65 to below the auxiliary mechanism 8, at which time the lifting sleeve 82 will be concentric with the storage tank 65.
[0101] Please see Figure 12 and Figure 13 The user can activate the lifting cylinder 81 to control the lifting sleeve 82 and the rotating frame 88 to enter the storage tank 65. When the pointed cone 89 contacts the bottom axis of the storage tank 65, as the lifting sleeve 82 continues to press down, the lifting sleeve 82 drives the internal connecting sleeve 83 to control the threaded control screw 86 to drive the slide bar 84 and the rotating frame 88 to rotate inside the storage tank 65. When the rotating frame 88 rotates, it can scrape the inner wall of the storage tank 65 with its sharp outer edges on both sides. A return spring 87 is designed to ensure that the rotating frame 88 can return to the initial state when the lifting sleeve 82 returns to the original state.
[0102] This embodiment:
[0103] By setting up auxiliary mechanism 8, the recovery rate of lepidolite can be maximized and raw material waste can be reduced. Lepidolite has low density and fine particles. After grinding, it is easily adsorbed on the inner wall of the grinding tank due to static electricity and van der Waals forces. Rotary scraping can thoroughly clean the tank wall, bottom and corner residues, significantly reducing the loss of high-value lepidolite raw materials. If lepidolite remains on the tank wall after grinding, it is easy to absorb moisture and clump or solidify when in contact with air for a long time. It is difficult to clean and cannot be reused. Timely scraping can avoid such waste, especially suitable for batch continuous grinding scenarios. Secondly, it can break up slightly agglomerated particles. Fine lepidolite powder is easy to agglomerate. The mechanical force during the scraping process can break up some loose agglomerates without the need for additional dispersion process, improving the uniformity of the ground product. It also facilitates the feeding operation of the material handling mechanism 5.
[0104] This invention also provides a lithium extraction process from lepidolite.

The driven gear 12 can drive the drive pulley 13 and the transmission belt 15 to control the driven pulley 14 to rotate. The driven pulley 14 can drive the main gear 17 to rotate. During the rotation of the main gear 17, the meshing transmission of the two auxiliary gears 19 on both sides revolves around the axis of the internal gear ring 18. In addition to revolving, the auxiliary gears 19 can also rotate on their own axis. Affected by the rotation of the auxiliary gears 19, the main turntable 20 and the auxiliary turntable 21 can be driven simultaneously. During the revolving process, they can also rotate on their own axis. Therefore, the lithium mica planetary grinding in the storage tank 65 can be performed.
[0129] Step S3: After grinding, the user can start the push cylinder 51 to control the mounting box 52 to move the gripper 510 closer to the storage tank 65. The gripper 510 can be directly inserted into the gap between the two retaining rings 67. When the gripping is stable, the magnetic block 511 inside the gripper 510 will attract the storage tank 65. After the gripping is completed, the user needs to control the push cylinder 51 to move the mounting box 52 and the gripper 510 towards the rack 57. When the trigger gear 55 contacts the rack 57, it will mesh and rotate. At this time, the trigger gear 55 will drive the first gear 53 to mesh and drive the second gear 54 to drive the entire gripper 510 to control the internal storage tank 65 to flip. During the flipping process, the lithium mica inside the storage tank 65 can be poured out and automatically picked up.
