[0030] In order to clean the body and interior of the concentrate conveyor vehicle and effectively recover the cleaned concentrate.
[0031] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 The present application provides an automatic car wash device for mining vehicles, comprising an inclined car wash platform 1, a water collection tank 2, and a car compartment cleaning mechanism 3. The car wash platform 1 is where vehicles are parked, and the water collection tank is located on one side of the car wash platform 1. The car compartment cleaning mechanism 3 is used to clean the car compartment of a transport vehicle located on the car wash platform 1. When the vehicle is washed, the transport vehicle climbs up the car wash platform 1 from the bottom to the top and stops, and then the corresponding car wash mechanism is operated to clean the vehicle. Taking the vehicle's travel direction as the front-to-back direction, the car compartment cleaning mechanism 3 is located on the rear side of the car wash platform 1.
[0032] Cleaning pipes 11 are provided on both sides and the bottom of the car wash station 1. The side cleaning pipes 11 are connected to the external water supply equipment through pipes. The cleaning pipes 11 are provided with cleaning nozzles, which spray water toward the middle. The bottom of the car wash station 1 is provided with a meshed water leakage plate 13, and a cleaning water diversion ditch 14 is provided below the water leakage plate 13. The cleaning water diversion ditch 14 extends downward along the inclined direction of the car wash station 1 to improve the flow of mineral materials and water in the cleaning water diversion ditch 14. The lower end of the cleaning water diversion ditch 14 is provided with a chute 12, and the top of the chute 12 is set to penetrate upward, and one end of the chute 12 is connected to the water collection tank 2.
[0033] The carriage cleaning mechanism 3 includes a column 31, a horizontal steering joint motor 32, a vertical steering joint motor 33, and a high-pressure nozzle 34; a horizontal steering joint motor 32 is vertically provided at the upper end of the column 31, a vertical steering joint motor 33 is horizontally provided on the output shaft of the horizontal steering joint motor 32, a high-pressure nozzle 34 is provided on the output shaft of the vertical steering joint motor 33, and the high-pressure nozzle 34 is connected to an external water supply equipment through a pipe, and a solenoid valve is provided on the connecting pipe.
[0034] When a vehicle needs to be washed, it drives to the car wash station 1 and stops stably. Clean water is sprayed from the cleaning nozzles on the cleaning pipe 11 to the sides and bottom of the vehicle to rinse the chassis and wheels of the vehicle. Part of the cleaning water flows downward through the drain plate 13 to the cleaning water diversion groove 14, then flows downward to the chute 12, and then flows through the chute 12 to the water collection tank 2 for collection. Another part of the cleaning water flows directly downward along the surface of the car wash station 1, then flows into the chute 12, and is then diverted from the chute 12 into the water collection tank 2.
[0035] The carriage cleaning mechanism 3 is running, and the external water supply equipment guides the cleaning water into the high-pressure nozzle 34, which is then sprayed onto the carriage of the transport vehicle to flush the carriage. The horizontal steering joint motor 32 drives the high-pressure nozzle 34 to swing left and right to clean different positions in the horizontal direction of the carriage. The vertical steering joint motor 33 drives the high-pressure nozzle 34 to swing up and down to clean different positions in the vertical direction of the carriage, effectively ensuring that the mineral materials at different positions in the carriage can be flushed down.
[0036] The present application uses a high-pressure nozzle 34 in combination with high water pressure to clean the carriage. Compared with the cleaning of an ordinary nozzle, the water flow has a higher impact force, which is conducive to flushing down a large amount of accumulated mineral materials.
[0037] In some specific embodiments, a camera 35 is further provided at the top of the column 31, and the camera 35 is connected to the signal input end of the controller 36, and the signal output end of the controller 36 is electrically connected to the horizontal steering joint motor 32, the vertical steering joint motor 33, and the solenoid valve respectively.
[0038] During operation, the camera 35 takes pictures of the carriage of the transport vehicle on the car wash station 1, and uses its internal image recognition module to analyze the pictures, so as to determine where in the carriage there are more residual mineral materials, and transmit the relevant information to the controller 36. The controller 36 controls the horizontal steering joint motor 32 or the vertical steering joint motor 33 according to the input signal, adjusts the spray direction of the high-pressure nozzle 34, and allows the high-pressure nozzle 34 to flush the area where the material is more concentrated for a longer time, ensuring that the residual mineral materials in the carriage can be flushed down.
[0039] In this embodiment, a photoelectric sensor switch 37 for detecting the passage of a vehicle is provided on the column 31 , and the photoelectric sensor switch 37 is connected to a signal input terminal of the controller 36 .
[0040] When a vehicle passes by the pillar 31, it is detected by the photoelectric sensor 37, and then a signal is transmitted to the controller 36. After a period of time, the vehicle drives to the car wash station and stops, and the controller 36 starts to control each cleaning structure to perform the cleaning operation.
[0041] In this embodiment, there are two carriage cleaning mechanisms 3, which are symmetrically arranged with respect to the central axis of the car washing platform 1. During the cleaning process, the two carriage cleaning mechanisms 3 respectively flush the carriage from both sides, ensuring that there is no dead angle in the carriage and the carriage is cleaned more thoroughly.
[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the water collection tank 2 is conical. After the cleaning water is gathered in the water collection tank 2, the solid mineral materials therein will settle downward. The conical design of the bottom of the water collection tank 2 is conducive to the concentration of the mineral materials and is convenient for collection and cleaning.
[0043] A slag discharge pipe 21 is provided at the bottom of the water collecting tank 2. A valve is provided on the slag discharge pipe 21. The valve is a gate valve. When the deposited mineral material needs to be discharged, the valve is opened to discharge the mineral material.
[0044] In this embodiment, the slag discharge pipe 21 is connected to a filter press device, and the discharged mixture of water and concentrate is separated by the filter press device, thereby obtaining a relatively clean concentrate.
[0045] In some specific embodiments, a partition net 22 perpendicular to the chute 12 is provided in the water collection trough 2, and the top of the partition net 22 is flush with the top of the water collection trough 2. The height of the partition net 22 is greater than one half of the depth of the chute 12 and less than two-thirds of the depth of the chute 12. A drain pipe 23 is provided on the side of the water collection trough 2 opposite to the chute 12. The drain pipe 23 is set close to the top of the water collection trough 2. The drain pipe 23 is connected to the sewage treatment equipment in the factory to realize the recycling of cleaning water, which is beneficial to saving water resources.
[0046] The partition net 22 divides the top cavity of the water collection tank 2 into two, one close to the chute 12 and the other away from the chute 12. After the cleaning water is introduced into the water collection tank 2 from the chute 12, the floating objects therein are blocked by the partition net 22 on the side close to the chute 12, effectively preventing the floating debris from flowing into the drain pipe 23 and causing the technical problem of clogging the drain pipe 23.
[0047] The embodiments of the present application have been described above. The above description is illustrative and not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is selected to best explain the principles of the embodiments, their practical applications, or improvements to the technology in the market, or to enable other persons skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
