Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tailings discharge technology in mineral processing plants, specifically relating to an automatic tracking system for incoming materials in mineral processing plants. Background Technology

[0002] Tailings dams are dams formed by the accumulation and compaction of tailings. They are divided into tailings accumulation dams and initial dams. Tailings are hydraulically flushed into the dam. Generally, tailings are transported into the dam body through pipelines. However, the pipelines are often located at a certain position on the dam body and are difficult to move left and right due to the fixed supports. It is impossible to adjust the stacking area according to the amount of tailings coming in. Discharging tailings to one position on the dam body for a long time will cause uneven tailings discharge in the tailings dam sedimentation beach. The tailings discharge in the sedimentation beach will be uneven, which can easily form a fan-shaped slope. When the discharge is uneven, it is easy for slurry to backflow and erode the tailings accumulation dam. Therefore, this utility model provides an automatic material tracking system for mineral processing plants to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the problems mentioned in the background art, this utility model provides an automatic material tracking system for a mineral processing plant. With this utility model, operators can control the opening and closing of the sub-control valves and discharge valves according to the tailings accumulation in the tailings dam area, first transporting the tailings to areas with less accumulation, avoiding uneven tailings discharge from a single location in the tailings dam sedimentation beach.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: An automatic material tracking system for a mineral processing plant includes a main control valve 1, sub-control valves 2, discharge valves 3, a material inlet pipe 4, a discharge pipe 5, a video monitor 6, a controller 7, and a remote monitoring terminal 8. The main control valve 1 is installed at the front end of the material inlet pipe 4. There are multiple discharge pipes 5, which are spaced apart and installed on the dam area, with one end connected to the material inlet pipe 4. Each discharge pipe 5 is equipped with a discharge valve 3. There are multiple sub-control valves 2, which are spaced apart and installed on the material inlet pipe 4. The sub-control valves 2 are located behind the main control valve 1. There are multiple video monitors 6 for monitoring the actual situation in the dam area, which are installed on the dam area. The main control valve 1, sub-control valves 2, and discharge valves 3 are all electrically connected to the controller 7. The controller 7 is wirelessly connected to the remote monitoring terminal 8.

[0005] Furthermore, a pressure sensor 9 is installed on the feed pipe 4, and the pressure sensor 9 is connected to the controller 7.

[0006] Furthermore, the automatic material tracking system for the ore dressing plant also includes a touch screen display 10, which is connected to the controller 7.

[0007] Furthermore, the remote monitoring terminal 8 is a smartphone, which is wirelessly connected to the controller 7.

[0008] Furthermore, the main control valve 1, the sub-control valve 2, and the discharge valve 3 are all electrically controlled valves that can be manually controlled or automatically controlled.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the preferred embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art.

[0018] like Figure 1-5This utility model discloses an automatic material tracking system for a mineral processing plant. The system includes a main control valve 1, sub-control valves 2, discharge valves 3, a material inlet pipe 4, a discharge pipe 5, a video monitor 6, a controller 7, and a remote monitoring terminal 8. The main control valve 1 is installed at the front end of the material inlet pipe 4. Multiple discharge pipes 5 are installed at intervals on the dam area, with one end connected to the material inlet pipe 4 via a T-junction. Each discharge pipe 5 is equipped with a discharge valve 3. Multiple sub-control valves 2 are included, including sub-control valve one 201, sub-control valve two 202, and sub-control valve three 203. These sub-control valves 2 are installed at intervals on the material inlet pipe 4, and are located after the main control valve 1. The system comprises three sub-control valves: 201 (first control valve), 202 (second control valve), and 203 (third control valve), which divide multiple discharge pipes into sections corresponding to various areas of the dam area. The area between the main control valve and sub-control valve 1 is considered section one; the area between sub-control valve 1 and sub-control valve 2 is considered section two; the area between sub-control valve 2 and sub-control valve 3 is considered section three; and the area after sub-control valve 3 is considered section four. Each section includes multiple discharge pipes and discharge valves. Multiple video monitors 6 are installed on the dam area to monitor the tailings accumulation and height in various sections. The main control valve 1, sub-control valve 2, and discharge valve 3 are all electrically connected to a controller 7, which is wirelessly connected to a remote monitoring terminal 8. The controller uses a Siemens 1200 series PLC. Multiple discharge pipes are installed on the dam area, each with a discharge valve. During tailings transport, a video monitor can first capture actual images of the dam area to view the tailings accumulation and height. Workers can control the opening and closing of the sub-control valves and discharge valves based on the tailings inflow from the concentrator and the tailings accumulation in the dam area, first transporting the tailings to areas with less accumulation. Multiple sub-control valves separate the discharge pipes and discharge valves, corresponding to different areas of the dam area. By controlling the sub-control valves and discharge valves, the placement area of ​​the tailings can be controlled. For example, opening the main control valve and all discharge valves located in front of the sub-control valves allows the tailings to be placed in one area. Open the main control valve, sub-control valve one, and sub-control valve two, and open the discharge valve between sub-control valve one and sub-control valve two. The tailings can be placed in zone two. At this time, the staff can choose where to place the tailings according to the actual height of the tailings in the dam area. In addition to discharging in different zones, the tailings can also be placed in four zones at the same time. For example, open all the main control valve and sub-control valves, and open one discharge valve in zone one, zone two, zone three, and zone four at a time. After a period of time, close the previously opened discharge valve, and then open any other discharge valve in zone one, zone two, zone three, and zone four. The tailings can be evenly piled in the four zones, avoiding discharging tailings to one position in the dam area, which would cause uneven tailings discharge in the tailings dam sedimentation beach.

[0019] A pressure sensor 9 is installed on the feed pipe 4, and the pressure sensor 9 is connected to the controller 7. The pressure sensor is installed in front of the main control valve to monitor the pressure of the feed pipe. When the pressure is too high, it sends an abnormal alarm signal to the controller to remind the staff to open more discharge valves for emergency pressure relief.

[0020] The automatic material tracking system of the ore dressing plant also includes a touch screen display 10, which is connected to the controller 7. The PLC controller is connected to a switch, which is connected to the touch screen display. The switch uses a Siemens TP1500. The touch screen can display monitoring images, such as the operating status of each valve, and facilitate the operation of each valve, such as opening or closing, or adjusting the valve opening degree. It also displays the actual situation of the dam area and the tailings accumulation height. The touch screen display allows staff to easily view the actual situation. A monitoring room is set up on the dam area, and the controller and touch screen display are installed in the monitoring room.

[0021] The remote monitoring terminal 8 is a smartphone, which is wirelessly connected to the controller 7. The controller can send the operating status of each valve in the dam area and the actual situation of the dam area to the smartphone for remote monitoring.

[0022] The main control valve 1, the sub-control valve 2, and the discharge valve 3 are all electrically controlled valves that can be manually controlled or automatically controlled. The valves can be controlled manually or automatically by the controller to control the opening, closing, or degree of opening, which is convenient for manual or remote control.

[0023] Work process:

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Multiple discharge pipes 5 are installed on the dam area, and discharge valves 3 are installed on the discharge pipes 5. When conveying tailings, the video monitor 6 can first collect the actual image of the dam area to check the accumulation situation and height of the tailings in the dam area. The staff can control the opening and closing of the sub-control valves 2 and discharge valves 3 according to the accumulation situation in the dam area, and first convey the tailings to the area with less accumulation. Multiple sub-control valves 2 separate the discharge pipes 5 and discharge valves 3. Corresponding to different areas of the dam area, the placement area of ​​the tailings can be controlled by controlling the sub-control valves 2 and discharge valves 3. For example, if the main control valve 1 is opened and all discharge valves 3 located in front of the sub-control valve 201 are opened, the tailings can be placed in area 1. If the main control valve 1 is opened and the sub-control valves 201 are opened, the tailings can be placed in area 1. By opening the main control valve 1 and the sub-control valve 202, and opening the discharge valve 3 between the main control valve 1 and the sub-control valve 202, the tailings can be placed in Zone 2. At this time, the staff can choose where to place the tailings according to the actual height of the tailings in the dam area. In addition to discharging the tailings in separate zones, the tailings can also be placed in four zones at the same time. For example, the main control valve 1 and the sub-control valve 2 are all opened, and the discharge valves 3 of Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 3 and Zone 4 are opened one at a time. After a period of time, the previously opened discharge valve 3 is closed, and then any other discharge valve 3 of Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 3 and Zone 4 is opened. The tailings can be piled evenly in the four zones, avoiding the uneven discharge of tailings in the tailings dam sedimentation beach caused by discharging tailings in one position in the dam area.

Although the utility model has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made to it in form and detail without departing from the scope defined by the claims of this utility model.
