Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention discloses a quantitative feeding system for a ball mill, belonging to the technical field of feeding equipment. Background Art
[0002] The ball mill is a key equipment for crushing materials after they are broken. It is widely used in cement, silicate products, new building materials, refractory materials and other industries. It can grind various ores and other grindable materials. For the ball mill, what is needed in the grinding of materials is safe and stable production. If the feeding and discharging speeds are unbalanced during material processing, the accumulated content of coarse-grained materials in the ball mill cylinder is not enough, and the fine-grained materials after ball milling are not discharged in time, the production capacity will be reduced and the production cost will increase. Therefore, stable and quantitative feeding to the ball mill is an important means to ensure the production capacity of the ball mill.
[0003] In the prior art, in the case of quantitative feeding, it is mainly achieved through a belt scale, such as the technical solution disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent with application number 202111524639.6, application date December 14, 2021, and patent name "A belt scale with quantitative feeding function". In this technical solution, a feeding box is provided, and after weighing is completed in the feeding box, the material is unloaded by the belt. Although this method can achieve accurate feeding of materials, its efficiency is low.
[0004] In the prior art, there are also some technical solutions for real-time weight adjustment, such as the technical solution disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent with application number 201821853095.1, application date November 12, 2018, and patent name "A quantitative feeding device for the feeding port of a clay belt scale"; the technical solution disclosed in the Chinese utility model patent with application number 201720805965.7, application date July 5, 2017, and patent name "A quantitative feeding system". In the above technical solutions, although the weight adjustment is achieved. However, it is found during use that when adjusting the belt scale, the adjustment process is relatively lagging, and the length of the belt scale needs to be increased to compensate.
[0005] The application number is 202120586100.2, the application date is March 23, 2021, and the patent name is "A wet ball mill with a quantitative feeding device". In this technical solution, two signals, namely the weighing weight and the running speed of the belt scale, are collected at the same time to further achieve quantitative control. However, in its technical solution, the belt scale still needs to be controlled.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] Figures 1 to 4 It is the best embodiment of the utility model, and the following Figures 1 to 4 The utility model is further described.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, a quantitative feeding system of a ball mill includes a disc feeder 2, a silo 1 is arranged on the upper part of the disc feeder 2, and a front discharge cover 3 is arranged at the outlet of the disc feeder 2. A belt scale 5 is arranged to be connected with the front discharge cover 3, and the front discharge cover 3 and the feeding port 14 of the belt scale 5 (see Figure 2 ) are connected by a front connecting tube 4. A rear unloading cover 6 is provided at the discharge port of the belt scale 5, and the rear unloading cover 6 is connected to the ball mill 8. The ball mill 8 is provided below the belt scale 5, and the rear unloading cover 6 is connected to the ball mill 8 by a rear connecting tube 7. Both the front connecting tube 4 and the rear connecting tube 7 adopt a flexible and retractable structure, which improves the reliability of the connection.
[0027] Combination Figure 2~3 In the quantitative feeding system of the ball mill, the basic frame of the belt scale 5 is the same as that of the traditional belt scale 5, including a main frame and rollers arranged at both ends of the main frame, and a conveying belt 17 is arranged between the rollers at both ends. Among the rollers at both ends, one roller is a driven roller 15, and the other is a driving roller. A belt driving device 9 is arranged outside the main frame. The belt driving device 9 includes a belt driving motor and a reducer connected to the belt driving motor, and the output shaft of the reducer is coaxially fixed with the driving roller.
[0028] An upper shell 12 and a lower shell 13 are respectively arranged above and below the belt scale 5. The upper shell 12 and the lower shell 13 cover the main frame of the belt scale 5, so that the belt scale 5 in the quantitative feeding system of the ball mill is a closed structure, which ensures the stability during feeding.
[0029] An observation window 11 is provided on the upper surface of the upper shell 12 for observing the working state of the belt scale 5. The feed port 14 is also provided on the surface of the upper shell 12. A foot 16 is provided at the bottom of the lower shell 13 for supporting the belt scale 5. A cleaning drive device 10 is also provided on the side of the lower shell 13. The cleaning drive device 10 is provided below the belt drive device 9.
[0030] The structure of the cleaning drive device 10 is the same as that of the belt drive device 9, including a cleaning drive motor and a reducer connected to the cleaning drive motor, and the output shaft of the reducer passes through the lower housing 13 and then enters the interior thereof. The output shaft of the reducer is coaxially fixed with a cleaning roller in the lower housing 13, and the cleaning roller is located below the conveyor belt 17, and cleans the lower part of the conveyor belt 17 when the conveyor belt 17 returns to prevent materials from remaining on the surface of the conveyor belt 17. The cleaned materials fall into the lower housing 13 and are collected uniformly.
[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, in the quantitative feeding system of the ball mill, a speed sensor for monitoring the running speed of the conveyor belt 17 is provided, and the speed sensor is installed at the roller shaft of the active roller (or the driven roller 15) to monitor the running angular velocity of the active roller (or the driven roller 15). The signal output end of the speed sensor and the signal output end of the weighing sensor of the original belt in the belt scale 5 are connected to the controller, and the signal output end of the controller is connected to the signal input end of the frequency converter, and the output end of the frequency converter is connected to the driving motor of the disc feeder 2. The controller can be implemented by a common technical solution in this field, such as PLC.
[0032] The specific working process and working principle are as follows:
[0033] The disc feeder 2 works to deliver the material in the silo 1, and the material is delivered to the belt scale 5 through the front discharge cover 3 and the front connecting tube 4, and then the material is transported by the conveyor belt 17 in the belt scale 5. During the material transportation in the belt scale 5, the weighing sensor in the belt scale 5 and the speed sensor set in the belt scale 5 respectively send their collected signals to the controller.
[0034] The controller calculates the current feeding amount in real time according to the speed of the conveyor belt 17 and the weight of the material on the surface of the conveyor belt 17. If the feeding amount is greater than the preset weight, the controller sends a control signal to the frequency converter to reduce the discharge amount of the disc feeder 2 through the frequency converter. Similarly, if the feeding amount is less than the preset weight, the controller sends a control signal to the frequency converter to increase the discharge amount of the disc feeder 2 through the frequency converter. Since the running speed of the disc feeder 2 is controlled by the controller, compared with the scheme of controlling the running speed of the belt scale 5 in the prior art, it is more conducive to eliminating the lag of weight control, improving the stability of regulation, and realizing accurate feeding.
[0035] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the utility model in other forms. Any technician familiar with the profession may use the technical content disclosed above to change or modify it into an equivalent embodiment with equivalent changes. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment based on the technical essence of the utility model without departing from the technical solution of the utility model still belongs to the protection scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
