Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ore bin dust removal equipment, and more specifically to an intelligent dust removal device for a tin smelting ore bin. Background Art

[0002] In the tin smelting process, the ore materials need to be transported to the ore bin by means of transportation, and then lifted by a crane into the ore bin hopper. Since the ore materials are mostly soft powder, a large amount of dust is generated during the unloading and lifting process, forming a radioactive dust source.

[0003] In the prior art, nozzles are usually installed around the ore bin or fog cannons are used. The water mist shell formed by increasing the water pressure suppresses the diffusion of dust particles and achieves the purpose of dust reduction. However, due to the limited coverage area of the traditional spraying method, it cannot reduce dust. In such a harsh working environment, it causes harm to the occupational health of operators and is very likely to cause occupational diseases such as pneumoconiosis. The ore dust materials fly in the air and are not easy to be recovered. In such a harsh working environment, the driver's vision is reduced, which is very likely to cause safety accidents.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide an intelligent dust removal device for tin smelting ore bin that can realize automatic water replenishment and automatically adjust the water spray pressure according to the dust concentration is a problem that technical personnel in this field urgently need to solve.

[0014] Preferably, a water level sensor is fixed on the inner wall of the water storage tank, and the water level sensor is electrically connected to the make-up water controller.

[0015] Preferably, a make-up water solenoid valve is fixed on the make-up water pipe, and the make-up water solenoid valve is electrically connected to the make-up water controller.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are that the water level sensor can monitor the water level in the water storage tank. When the water level in the water storage tank is too low, the make-up water controller controls the make-up water solenoid valve to open to automatically replenish water to the water storage tank.

[0017] Preferably, a spray controller is fixed in the cab of the overhead crane, and the spray controller is electrically connected to the pressure pump. The spray controller can control the pressure pump to draw water from the water storage tank to spray and reduce dust in the ore bin.

The water replenishing system automatically replenishes water according to the water level in the water storage tank, and the spray system automatically adjusts the water spraying pressure according to the dust concentration. When the dust concentration of the ore materials in the ore bin exceeds the set value, the dust detector detects the dust concentration information of the ore materials and transmits the dust concentration information of the ore materials to the control box of the spray system. The control box of the spray system controls the pressure pump to automatically adjust the spray pressure according to the detected dust concentration and sprays water on the ore bin, thereby achieving the technical effect of automatically controlling the spray.
