Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of filling, in particular to a floc morphology observation instrument. Background Art
[0002] With the exhaustion of shallow mineral resources in my country, the development of mineral resources in the future will fully enter the deep deposits within the second depth space (1000-2000m), and deep mining of metal mines will become the norm. Deep mining faces a complex environment of "three highs and one disturbance". Backfill mining can effectively control ground pressure and overburden movement, and is widely used in deep metal deposit mining.
[0003] After 2000, high-concentration cemented filling of tailings, cemented filling of paste and new filling processes derived from the two major process modes dominated the filling of metal mines in my country. These processes require the addition of flocculants to thicken the tailings from the mill, and the mass fraction of the prepared filling tailings slurry is 60% to 70%.
[0004] First, the residue of flocculant in machine-made sand will affect the performance of concrete. Relevant studies have shown that when the concentration of flocculant is 0.5‰, the effect on the performance of concrete is obvious. When the concentration reaches 1‰, it has seriously affected the performance of concrete. Since production water is generally recycled, flocculant is added once every cycle. In each cycle, part of the flocculant in the aqueous solution is adsorbed by the flocculated sediment and precipitated, and part of it remains in the aqueous solution. As the number of cycles increases, the concentration of flocculant in the circulating water will continue to increase, causing the residual flocculant in the machine-made sand to continue to increase.
[0005] Secondly, the sampling, judgment and adjustment of the dosage of flocculation effect are now highly dependent on the experience of on-site personnel, and the subjective judgment factor has a greater impact.
[0006] Therefore, in order to improve the accuracy of flocculant use, it is urgent to develop a floc morphology observer to ensure that the flocculation effect meets the requirements, reduce the amount of flocculant used, and improve the standardization, unmanned and automation of the filling system.
[0007] In view of this, it is necessary to design an improved floc morphology observer to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] In addition, it should be noted that the terms "comprises", "includes" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or apparatus that includes a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or apparatus.
[0029] The utility model provides a floc morphology observation instrument, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a transparent clean water tank 1 filled with clean water, a stirring dish 2 connected to the transparent clean water tank 1, a stirrer 3 arranged inside the stirring dish 2, a camera moving guide rail 5 arranged on one side of the transparent clean water tank 1, a mobile high-speed camera 6 connected to the camera moving guide rail 5, and a fixed high-speed camera arranged on the other side of the transparent clean water tank 1.
[0030] In some embodiments of the present invention, the stirring dish 2 is located at the upper end of the transparent clean water tank 1.

The first fixed high-speed camera 7 records the flocculation state of the initial stage, the second fixed high-speed camera 8 records the flocculation state of the precipitation stage, and the mobile high-speed camera 6 follows the selected flocs to measure the sedimentation time.
[0034] Through the above method, the flocculation and sedimentation process of flocs can be recorded for subsequent analysis and judgment.
