Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of graphite electrode raw material processing technology, specifically to a raw material processing device for graphite electrode production. Background Technology

[0002] As a core consumable in metallurgy, chemical industry and other fields, graphite electrodes are mainly produced from carbonaceous raw materials such as petroleum coke and needle coke. The quality of crushing, grading and impurity removal of raw materials directly determines the density, strength and conductivity of the finished graphite electrode.

[0003] Currently, the pretreatment process of raw materials for graphite electrode production generally adopts a graded crushing process. However, the existing processing equipment and supporting processes have many technical defects: Firstly, dust pollution is a prominent problem during the crushing process. The dust removal structure of traditional crushing equipment is simple, with only simple spraying or dust collection devices set in local locations. It is impossible to suppress dust throughout the entire process of coarse and fine crushing. The large amount of graphite dust released not only pollutes the working environment but also causes raw material loss and threatens the health of operators.

[0004] Secondly, water resource utilization efficiency is low. The dustfall wastewater from the crushing process is mostly used once and is not recycled. This not only increases the cost of production water but also generates a large amount of industrial wastewater, increasing the pressure on environmental protection.

[0005] Third, the grading and screening effect after raw material crushing is poor. The screening structure of existing equipment is mostly fixed screen, which is prone to clogging and incomplete screening. It is impossible to accurately control the particle size of raw materials, resulting in unqualified materials entering subsequent processes and affecting the quality of graphite electrode products.

[0006] Fourth, the equipment is inconvenient to clean and maintain. Dirt and sediment generated during crushing and screening are easy to accumulate in the inner cavity of the equipment, requiring the machine to be stopped for disassembly and cleaning, which reduces production efficiency.

[0007] To avoid the above problems, a raw material processing device for graphite electrode production is proposed to solve the existing problems. Summary of the Invention

[0017] Beneficial effects

[0018] This invention provides a raw material processing device for graphite electrode production. Compared with existing technologies, it has the following advantages:

[0019] (1) The raw material processing equipment for graphite electrode production is equipped with a special dust suppression mechanism for the jaw crusher. The water source is driven by the first water pump and then sprayed and atomized synchronously at the inlet and outlet of the jaw crusher after being diverted. At the same time, the spray branch pipe at the inlet of the ring hammer crusher is used to perform secondary dust suppression and washing of the fine crushed material. This achieves dust suppression in the entire crushing process of coarse and fine crushing, reduces dust emission from the source, greatly improves the production working environment, and reduces the loss of raw materials caused by dust loss.

[0020] Secondly, the equipment collects the dust-suppressing wastewater from the coarse crushing stage, first immerses and washes the coarsely crushed material in a washing frame, and then filters it before conveying it to the fine crushing unit for secondary spraying to suppress dust. This achieves the cascade recycling of dust-suppressing wastewater, significantly reducing the consumption of fresh water in production and reducing industrial wastewater discharge. It not only meets environmental protection requirements but also effectively saves production water costs.

[0021] (2) The raw material processing equipment for graphite electrode production, by setting multiple separation mechanisms in the separation frame, drives the inclined bottom screen frame and the filter plate to reciprocate through the drive component, realizes efficient screening of finely crushed materials, can accurately intercept unqualified materials, ensure that the raw material entering the subsequent process has uniform particle size, and provide reliable guarantee for the density, strength and conductivity of the finished graphite electrode. At the same time, the screen movement structure design effectively avoids the problem of screen blockage and improves screening efficiency.

[0022] (3) The raw material processing equipment for graphite electrode production has a dirt cleaning structure set in the inner cavity of the separation frame. The drive shaft drives the scraper to scrape the inner cavity wall, so that the deposited dirt is concentrated in the annular mud storage tank. The mud pump and mud pipe can be used to extract and clean the dirt without stopping the machine. There is no need to disassemble the equipment, which effectively reduces the equipment maintenance time and improves the continuous operation capability of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, to facilitate the separation of material particles and the sedimentation, collection, and centralized extraction of impurities in the water source, a multi-stage separation mechanism 7 is provided inside the separation frame 4. The multi-stage separation mechanism 7 includes an inclined-bottom screen frame 701, which is slidably disposed inside the separation frame 4. A filter plate 702 is fixedly connected inside the inclined-bottom screen frame 701. A water-filtering mesh is provided at the bottom of the inclined-bottom screen frame 701.

The output shaft of the second motor 703 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 704 via a coupling, and one end of the rotating shaft 704 extends into the interior of the separation frame 4. A cam 705 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 704. A frame 706 adapted to the cam 705 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inclined-bottom screen frame 701.

The inlet of the mud pump 708 is connected to a mud pump pipe 709, and one end of the mud pump pipe 709 passes through the separation frame 4 and extends into the interior of the annular mud storage trough 707. A conical cavity 710 matching the annular mud storage trough 707 is provided inside the separation frame 4. Several mud scrapers 711 that are adapted to the conical cavity 710 are fixedly connected at equal intervals around the surface of the rotating shaft 704. Limiting grooves 14 are provided on the front and rear sides of the inner cavity of the separation frame 4. Limiting sliders 15 are slidably connected inside the limiting grooves 14. The opposite sides of the two limiting sliders 15 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the inclined bottom screen frame 701, respectively. A water pumping pipe 16 is connected to one side of the separation frame 4.

[0041] The specific operating steps are as follows:

[0042] Material is fed into the jaw crusher 2 through the top inlet. The material enters the jaw crusher 2 and is coarsely crushed. The coarsely crushed material falls into the washing frame 601 and is conveyed to the ring hammer crusher 3 through the perforated chain conveyor belt 602 for fine crushing. Finally, the material is discharged through the bottom outlet of the ring hammer crusher 3.

[0043] When the jaw crusher 2 crushes the material, the inlet of the first water pump 501 is connected to the external water source in advance. Then, the first water pump 501 is used as a drive to transport the water source to the inside of the three-way pipe 502, and the three-way pipe 502 is used to divert the water to the inside of the first cluster nozzle 503 and the second cluster nozzle 504, so that the inlet and outlet of the jaw crusher 2 can be atomized and dust reduced.

[0044] As dust is sprayed at the inlet and outlet of the jaw crusher 2, the coarsely crushed lumpy material mixed with water enters the interior of the washing frame 601. The water is pre-accumulated in the interior of the washing frame 601. After accumulating to a preset height, it is transferred to the interior of the water storage tank 603 through the return pipe 604 for temporary storage. Correspondingly, the material coarsened by the jaw crusher 2 is immersed in the water inside the washing frame 601. Then, the coarsened material is continuously transported to the interior of the ring hammer crusher 3 by the perforated chain conveyor belt 602. During this period, the water filtered inside the water storage tank 603 is transferred to the interior of the water supply main pipe 608 by the second water pump 607. The water supply main pipe 608 is then transported to the interior of the spray branch pipe 609. The spray branch pipe 609 sprays water at the top of the inlet of the ring hammer crusher 3, thereby suppressing dust and rinsing the finely crushed material in the ring hammer crusher 3.

[0045] When the fine material mixed with water is unloaded and enters the separation frame 4, the material will first enter the top of the screen plate 702, while the water will flow to the bottom of the inner cavity of the separation frame 4 by gravity. Then the second motor 703 is started. The second motor 703 drives the cam 705 to rotate through the rotating shaft 704. The cam 705 drives the inclined bottom screen frame 701 to reciprocate through the bar frame 706. When the inclined bottom screen frame 701 carries the screen plate 702 to screen, the unqualified fine material is intercepted at the top of the screen plate 702, and the qualified material enters the bottom of the inner cavity of the inclined bottom screen frame 701 and is discharged through screening and inclined guidance.

[0046] During the rotation of the rotating shaft 704, the rotating shaft 704 synchronously drives the scraper 711 to modify the inner wall of the conical cavity 710, causing the deposited dirt to enter the interior of the annular mud storage tank 707. When there is too much sediment inside the annular mud storage tank 707, it can be extracted by the mud pump 708 and the mud pipe 709.
