Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of ball mills, and in particular relates to a sand retaining device for a discharge port of a small ball mill used in a laboratory. Background Art
[0002] During mineral processing experiments, grinding is often performed before sorting to achieve the separation of individual minerals. However, some coarse particles cannot be finely ground in small ball mills. Directly feeding unground product into the sorting process can cause the sorting equipment's rotating shaft to jam and wear, increasing equipment failure rates, shortening equipment life, and compromising test efficiency. Therefore, desanding before sorting is essential. To prevent coarse particles from entering the sorting process, during actual experiments, one person typically operates the ball mill to discharge the ground product while another uses a standard test sieve to remove coarse particles from the slurry. However, existing small laboratory ball mills suffer from the following drawbacks: The lack of a convenient and practical desanding device complicates the process, reduces efficiency, and easily damages the mill's rotating components; slurry splashes easily, exposing operators to the risk of skin corrosion from direct contact with the slurry; the coarse particle screening process requires large quantities of clean water to rinse the standard sieve, increasing manual labor; and the high water consumption can lead to a mismatch between the slurry volume and the processing capacity of the sorting equipment. Urgent improvement is needed. Utility Model Content
