TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of metal sample sampling and sample preparation equipment, and particularly relates to a device for preparing coarse-grained cobalt hydroxide samples. BACKGROUND
[0002] Cobalt is an extremely important strategic metal and is widely used in the fields of battery manufacturing, aerospace, high-temperature alloy, and magnetic material. In recent years, with the rapid development of new energy industry and aerospace technology, the demand for cobalt raw materials in the cobalt smelting industry is also increasing, but China is severely short of cobalt resources, the cobalt ore grade is low, and most of the cobalt ore is associated with multi-metal ore, so a large amount of cobalt raw materials need to be purchased, and the cost is high.
[0003] Coarse-grained cobalt hydroxide is one of the raw materials for cobalt production. In order to ensure the fairness of the transaction, it is necessary to accurately detect and analyze it, and the representativeness of the sample preparation is a decisive factor for improving the accuracy of chemical analysis. At present, the preparation method of coarse cobalt hydroxide sample is mainly grinding, and as an important step of sample preparation, the grinding particle size and sample quality directly affect the accuracy of cobalt hydroxide sample analysis. The grinding operation process is to mix the sample thoroughly first, use the grid method to divide the sample by not less than 2kg, measure the moisture content and prepare the composition sample, and then grind the sample using a disc pulverizer after the sample is completely dried and reaches a constant weight. However, there are the following problems in the grinding process: (1) the feeding port of the disc pulverizer is small, and the feeding particle size is required to be ≤6mm, so the sample needs to be added in batches, and screening needs to be performed at the same time, if there is oversize material, continue to grind, until the sample passes through the 100 mesh standard sieve, the whole grinding process needs at least 25min, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the weight of the single sample bowl is about 5-10kg, and the labor intensity of the operator is large during the process of moving the sample bowl; (2) the sample residue after grinding is serious, and the loss rate is ≥8%, which greatly reduces the representativeness of the sample and reduces the fairness of the trade between the two parties; (3) high temperature is generated during the grinding process, which easily leads to high-temperature oxidation of the sample, so the grinding time is not more than 3min each time, and the bowl body itself is also heated after multiple grinding of the sample bowl, which further aggravates the high-temperature oxidation of the sample; (4) the grinding gap of the disc pulverizer is not easy to control, and the adjustment of the disc gap will directly affect the sample particle size, thereby affecting the sample preparation efficiency, and the sample preparation process and time simply rely on the working experience of the sample preparation personnel, the operation standard difference is large, and manual error is inevitable.
