[0027] To further understand the content of the utility model, the utility model will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Embodiment 1
[0029] The wet concentrate powder storage system of the beneficiation plant in this embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , 2 , 3, 4, includes a thickener 14, an underflow pump 15, a filter press 11, a belt conveyor 12 and a storage device 2 connected in sequence according to the flow direction of the concentrate pulp 1; wherein, at least two uniformly distributed discharge points are arranged between the discharge end of the belt conveyor 12 and the storage device 2 to ensure the full utilization of the effective storage capacity of the storage device 2.
[0030] In specific use, the concentrate pulp 1 is injected into the cylindrical shallow tank with a conical bottom of the thickener 14 through the feed port of the thickener 14. Under the action of the gravity sedimentation of the concentrate, the concentrate is pumped into the filter 11 through the discharge port at its bottom by the underflow pump 15. The underflow pump 15 is generally a slurry pump and can be 2 or more in parallel. After being concentrated and filtered by the filter 11, the concentrate filter cake is obtained, and it directly falls from the discharge port of the filter 11 onto the belt conveyor 12. The discharge end of the belt conveyor 12 is located above the receiving bin 21 of the storage device 2. The concentrate filter cake falls into the receiving bin 21 from the discharge end of the belt conveyor 12. Since the fluidity of the concentrate filter cake is relatively poor, it is likely to accumulate in the receiving bin 21, resulting in a reduction in the effective bin capacity of the receiving bin 21. Therefore, at least two uniformly distributed discharge points need to be set between the discharge end of the belt conveyor 12 and the storage device 2. In this embodiment, a distributor is provided on the surface of the belt conveyor 12 near the discharge end of the belt conveyor 12. The side end of the distributor is fixedly connected to the frame of the belt conveyor 12, and multi-point discharging is realized through the distributor, thereby realizing the full utilization of the effective bin capacity of the receiving bin 21. The distributor is preferably a plow-type discharger 13. The plow-type discharger 13 and the belt conveyor 12 cooperate with each other. According to the needs of the storage device 2, multiple uniformly distributed discharge points can be set. When one plow-type discharger 13 is set, two material dropping points are formed on the two sides of the plow-type discharger 13, and three material dropping points in a uniformly distributed "pin" shape can be formed together with the material dropping point at the end of the belt conveyor 12. The receiving bin 21 in this embodiment is a steel structure bin with a bin capacity of 883 m 3 , with a bulk density of 2.5 T / m 3 , and can store 2200 T of the concentrate filter cake.
[0031] Embodiment 2
[0032] The wet concentrate powder storage system of the concentrator in this embodiment has the same basic structure as that in Embodiment 1. The differences or improvements are as follows: The storage device 2 includes a receiving bin 21 and a discharge hopper 22 connected to the bottom of the receiving bin 21. A flat gate valve 24 is horizontally inserted at the bottom of the discharge hopper 22, and the valve is closed when the concentrate filter cake is falling. Below the flat gate valve 24, a discharge valve 25 is further connected to the bottom end of the discharge hopper 22. The discharge valve 25 in this embodiment adopts a hydraulic jaw valve and drives the jaw valve through an electro-hydraulic push rod. The vertical cross-section of the discharge hopper 22 is in a W shape, forming at least two bottom discharge ports, so as to evenly discharge the concentrate onto the carriage of the transport truck when discharging the concentrate, thereby improving the effective volume of the carriage. Air cannons 23 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the receiving bin 21 and the discharge hopper 22 to improve the stability and sufficiency of the material discharge. The air cannons 23 are evenly arranged along the bin walls of the receiving bin 21 and the discharge hopper 22, with each group having a volume of 300L and a working pressure of 0.4 - 0.8 Mpa to ensure the stability of sufficient material discharge. The upper part of the receiving bin 21 is cylindrical and the lower part is conical, with thorough material discharge. Manganese steel liners are installed on the inner wall to strengthen the strength of the bin wall while cooperating with the vibration effect of the air cannons 23. The water content of the concentrate filter cake after concentration and filtration by the filter press 11 is ≤ 10%, the fineness is below 200 mesh, -0.074mm, accounting for 50% - 95%, and the grade of TFe content is 56% - 71%.
[0033] The loading process of the wet concentrate powder storage system of the concentrator in this embodiment is as Figure 2 、 3 shown. When the iron concentrate in the receiving bin 21 needs to be transported externally, the external transport truck drives to the weighbridge 3 under the bottom of the discharge hopper 22. After the empty truck weighing is completed, the hydraulic jaw valve at the bottom of the bin is automatically opened for discharging, and at the same time, the air cannons 23 on the bin wall are started. When the truck reaches the specified loading weight, the hydraulic jaw valve is automatically closed.
[0034] The loading process of the wet concentrate powder storage system of the concentrator in this embodiment, by adding air cannons 23 to the bin of the cylindrical receiving bin 22 and its discharge hopper, forms a vibrating hopper and a discharge valve 25 device, effectively avoiding the caking of wet iron concentrate, and the loading process is smooth; it avoids using a grab crane for loading, reduces the number of on-site personnel, reduces the loading cost of the concentrator's concentrate, improves the personnel efficiency and the truck loading efficiency, and has the effects of energy conservation, consumption reduction, and efficiency increase.
[0035] Embodiment 3
[0036] The wet concentrate powder storage system of the concentrator in this embodiment has the same basic structure as that in Embodiment 2. The differences or improvements are as follows: It is applied to iron concentrate filter cake with a water content of ≤ 10%, a fineness of 85% at -0.074mm, and a grade of TFe content of 65%; the receiving bin 21 is 2 or more in parallel, with the upper cylindrical part having a diameter of 10m and the lower part being conical, and the inclined wall inclination angle being 70°; asFigure 5 , 6 As shown in 6 , in this embodiment, preferably two belt conveyors 12 for wet concentrate feeding are located on the center line above the ore bin of the receiving bin 21; the center line of the head pulley of the belt conveyor 12 is located on the center line of the rightmost receiving bin 21 of the ore bin, and the shortest distance from the right side of the receiving bin 21 to the bin wall is at the position of 1 / 4 of the diameter. The shortest distance from the plough diverter 2 to the bin wall is at the position of 1 / 4 of the diameter. This position can maximize the utilization of the effective bin capacity of the two receiving bins 21; the belt conveyor 12 spans above the bin openings of the two receiving bins 21. There are three plough diverters 13 arranged in parallel. Among them, two plough diverters 13 are above the bin opening of one receiving bin 21, forming four symmetrically distributed blanking points for the concentrate filter cake on the left and right. The other plough diverter 13 is above the bin opening of the other receiving bin 21, forming three blanking points distributed in a triangular pattern. An ultrasonic radar level detector is also installed on the upper part of the cylinder of the receiving bin 21 to automatically detect and real-time detect the level of the ore bin in the receiving bin 21. Two weighbridges 3 are correspondingly arranged at the bottoms of the two receiving bins 21, forming two truck loading lines. Six groups of air cannons 23 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the outer walls of the two receiving bins 21. The outer wall of the ore discharge funnel 22 is evenly distributed circumferentially in 21 groups, with each group having a volume of 300L and a working pressure of 0.6 Mpa; the rated thrust of the electro-hydraulic push rod driving the jaw valve is 17.5 kN.
[0037] In the wet concentrate powder storage system of the concentrator in this embodiment, during the process of the concentrate filter cake falling into the two receiving bins 21, the air cannons 23 on the outer wall of the bottom of the receiving bin 21 are opened to further increase the effective bin capacity of the receiving bin 21. After measurement, the bin capacity utilization rate is 99%, thus realizing the maximum utilization of the effective bin capacity of the receiving bin 21. During the loading process, the air cannons 23 on the outer wall of the ore discharge funnel 22, 21 groups of air cannons 23, are opened to make the ore discharge funnel 22 form a vibrating funnel, and the discharging is more thorough, avoiding damage to the hydraulic jaw valve due to accumulated materials when the valve is opened and closed.
[0038] In the wet concentrate powder storage system of the concentrator in this embodiment, by adding air cannons 23 to the cylindrical receiving bin 21 and its ore discharge funnel 22 to form a vibrating funnel and an automatic detection device, the use of a grab crane for loading is avoided, reducing the number of on-site personnel, lowering the loading cost of the concentrate in the concentrator, improving the personnel efficiency and the truck loading efficiency, and having the effects of energy conservation, consumption reduction and efficiency increase.
[0039] The above schematically describes the present invention and its embodiments. This description is not restrictive. What is shown in the drawings is only one of the embodiments of the present invention. The actual structure and manufacturing steps are not limited thereto. Therefore, if those of ordinary skill in the art are inspired by it and design similar structural forms and embodiments to this technical solution without creative work without departing from the purpose of the present invention, they should all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
