Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in an appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
[0034] The present application embodiment discloses a high-efficiency flotation machine. Figure 1A high-efficiency flotation machine includes a slurry barrel 1, a main stirring assembly 2, an auxiliary stirring assembly 3 and a driving device 4. The slurry barrel 1 is cylindrical. The axis of the slurry barrel 1 is arranged perpendicular to the ground, and the upper end of the slurry barrel 1 is arranged with an opening. A discharge port 12 is provided on the circumference of the slurry barrel 1 at a position far from the ground. The height of the discharge port 12 from the ground is higher than the horizontal height of the slurry in the slurry barrel 1, so that the foam generated during the stirring process can overflow from the discharge port 12. A feed port 11 is provided on the upper side of the slurry barrel 1. The horizontal height of the feed port 11 is higher than the horizontal height of the discharge port 12. The slurry enters the slurry barrel 1 through the feed port 11 for stirring. A discharge port 13 is provided at the lower end of the slurry barrel 1. The discharge port 13 is arranged away from the axis. After flotation is completed, the slurry is discharged from the discharge port 13.
[0035] refer to Figure 1 The main stirring assembly 2 includes a rotating shaft 21 and an impeller 22 which are coaxially arranged. The rotating shaft 21 is arranged to coincide with the axis of the slurry barrel 1. The rotating shaft 21 is fixedly connected to the impeller 22 at one end close to the ground. The rotating shaft 21 and the impeller 22 rotate synchronously. The impeller 22 is horizontally arranged. The impeller 22 is close to the bottom surface of the inner wall of the slurry barrel 1. The impeller 22 can stir the slurry at the bottom of the slurry barrel 1 upwards, so that the slurry in the slurry barrel 1 is fully stirred.
[0036] A mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the upper side of the open end of the slurry barrel 1, and the mounting bracket is arranged horizontally. A transmission box is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting bracket away from the slurry barrel 1, and a cavity is opened in the transmission box. The driving motor 41 is installed in the cavity of the transmission box. The transmission box completely wraps the driving device 4 to prevent the material in the slurry barrel 1 from splashing into the driving device 4 during the stirring process during the operation, thereby causing wear during the operation and affecting the service life of the driving device 4. The driving device 4 includes a planetary gear mechanism 42 and a driving motor 41. The planetary gear mechanism 42 includes a sun gear 422, two planetary gears 421 and a passive gear ring 423. The sun gear 422 is coaxially fixed to the rotating shaft 21, and the sun gear 422 and the rotating shaft 21 rotate synchronously. The passive gear ring 423 is sleeved outside the sun gear 422, and the passive gear ring 423 is coaxially arranged with the sun gear 422. The two planetary gears 421 are installed between the passive gear ring 423 and the sun gear 422. The two planetary gears 421 are arranged opposite to each other through the axis of the sun gear 422. The planetary gears 421 mesh with the inner side of the passive gear ring 423 and the outer side of the sun gear 422 at the same time, so that the planetary gears 421 can be evenly distributed on both sides of the sun gear 422 relative to the planetary gears 421 along the position of the sun gear 422, balancing the inertial force of each planetary gear 421 and the swing arm, and making the planetary gear mechanism 42 have better stability and the ability to resist impact and vibration. The output end of the driving motor 41 is fixedly connected to the sun gear 422 coaxially, and the driving motor 41 drives the sun gear 422 to rotate around its own axis. When the sun gear 422 drives the meshing planetary gears 421 to rotate, it also rotates in the circumferential direction. The driving device 4 is provided with a baffle 23 near the connecting member, and the baffle 23 isolates the driving device 4 from the slurry barrel 1. By adopting the above technical solution, the baffle 23 isolates the driving device 4 from the slurry barrel 1, preventing the material in the slurry barrel 1 from splashing into the planetary gear mechanism 42 during operation and causing gear wear during operation.
[0037] refer to Figure 2-4The auxiliary stirring assembly 3 includes two groups of auxiliary stirring shafts 31, and the auxiliary stirring shafts 31 correspond to the planetary gears 421 one by one. The auxiliary stirring shafts 31 are coaxially fixed to one end of the planetary gears 421 close to the ground, and the auxiliary stirring shafts 31 rotate synchronously with the planetary gears 421. The auxiliary stirring assembly 3 stirs and foams the slurry at the edge of the slurry barrel 1, so that the coverage area of the stirring device is wider, the foaming area is larger, and the flotation efficiency of the ore is improved. A plurality of stirring blades 32 are fixed to the circumferential surface of each auxiliary stirring shaft 31, and each group of stirring blades 32 is arranged in an array along the length direction of the auxiliary stirring shaft 31, and two adjacent groups of stirring blades 32 are arranged in an alternating manner. Each group of stirring blades 32 is arranged in an array along the circumferential direction of the stirring shaft, and the plurality of stirring blades 32 arranged in the array increase the contact area between the auxiliary stirring device and the slurry, thereby improving the stirring efficiency of the auxiliary stirring device. The stirring blade 32 is in the shape of a rectangular thin plate. The stirring blade 32 is fixed to the circumferential surface of the stirring shaft along one side of the width direction. The stirring blade 32 is arranged perpendicular to the axis of the auxiliary stirring shaft 31. A plurality of through holes 321 are opened on the surface of the stirring blade 32. During the stirring process, the stirring blade 32 rotates with the auxiliary stirring shaft 31, and the slurry flows through the through holes 321 to generate a large number of bubbles, thereby improving the flotation efficiency.
[0038] refer to Figure 4 The rotating shaft 21 is sleeved with a foam scraper 5, which is rectangular in shape. Both ends of the foam scraper 5 along the length direction abut against the inner wall of the slurry barrel 1, and the length direction of the foam scraper 5 is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft 21. The foam scraper 5 is rotatably connected to the auxiliary stirring shaft 31 near both ends along the length direction, and the auxiliary stirring shaft 31 drives the foam scraper 5 to rotate. The foam scraper 5 rotates in the circumferential direction driven by the auxiliary stirring shaft 31, so that the foam generated by flotation can be discharged from the discharge port 12 in time under the push of the foam scraper 5. The foam scraper 5 is tilted in the direction of rotation, and the inclined surface of the inclined foam scraper 5 can better abut against the foam when it rotates, so that the foam can be pushed out more efficiently.
[0039] The implementation principle of a high-efficiency flotation machine in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the ore pulp to be floated is introduced into the slurry barrel 1, and the active stirring component and the auxiliary stirring component 3 rotate simultaneously under the drive of the driving device 4, and the auxiliary stirring component 3 rotates along the circumferential direction of the main stirring component 2 while rotating to stir, and the auxiliary stirring component 3 is close to the inner wall of the slurry barrel 1, and stirs the ore pulp close to the inner wall of the slurry barrel 1. At the same time, during the stirring process, external air enters the ore pulp from the air channel 211 opened in the rotating shaft 21, so that a large amount of foam is generated in the ore pulp during the stirring process, and the metal to be floated in the ore pulp is attached to the foam, and the foam overflows from the discharge port 12 to complete the flotation.
[0040] The present application has the function of more efficiently stirring and flotating the ore pulp.
