However, the collection of compliant and representative samples is subject to many constraints, such as the sense of responsibility of the sampling personnel, the geological knowledge of the ore body by the geologists, and the environment of the mining site. In addition, traditional methods such as grooving and continuous rapid drilling are time-consuming and labor-intensive, and have poor service capabilities for controlling the daily ore grade of the mining site. Especially for heterogeneous mineralized ore bodies, the above methods are prone to large errors in predicting the daily ore grade of the mine. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0027] The technical solution of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and implementation methods.
[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an automatic ore sampling device includes a housing 20, inside which a geared motor 16 is provided. The top of the geared motor 16 is provided with a vertically arranged main shaft 17, and the two are connected in a transmission manner. The top of the main shaft 17 is provided with a primary screen 3. Specifically, the geared motor 16 can drive the main shaft 17 to rotate at different speeds.
[0029] The outer shell 20 has a rectangular opening, with a guide plate 4 and a guard plate 5 on each side. On the other two sides, there are two symmetrically arranged adjusting baffles 2. The adjusting baffles 2 are L-shaped, and the primary screen 3 is located directly below the rectangular opening.
[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the primary screen 3 is circular, with several screen holes concentrated at the rectangular opening of the outer shell 20. Its screening mesh size is 50 mm or less for mineral blocks and powders. Specifically, the primary screen 3 is bent, and its edge is in contact with the inner wall of the outer shell 20.
[0031] Above the adjusting baffle 2 is a vertically arranged ore baffle 1, and the two are in vertical contact. The bottom of the ore baffle 1 is in contact with the guard plate 5, the adjusting baffle 2 and the guide plate 4 in sequence. Specifically, the distance between the two ore baffles 1 is the same as the width of the discharge port of the cantilever tunneling machine or belt conveyor, so that the ore can fall directly onto the guard plate 5 instead of the primary screen 3.
[0032] Below the primary screen 3, a secondary screen 13 and a tertiary screen 8 are arranged in sequence. The secondary screen 13 is used to screen mineral lumps with a mesh size of less than 20 mm, and the tertiary screen 8 is used to screen mineral powder. The diameter of the screen opening can be selected according to the particle size required for laboratory optimization experiments. Specifically, in a clockwise direction, the angle between the primary screen 3 and the horizontal plane is -20 to -40 degrees, the angle between the secondary screen 13 and the horizontal plane is -5 to -10 degrees, and the angle between the tertiary screen 8 and the horizontal plane is 5 to 10 degrees. A powder and mineral recovery bin 15 is formed between the tertiary screen 8 and the inner wall of the outer shell 20.
[0033] The outer casing 20 has a first baffle 6 and a second baffle 7 on the side walls corresponding to the secondary screen 13 and the tertiary screen 8, respectively. The first baffle 6 and the second baffle 7 are both vertically arranged and detachably connected to the outer casing 20. Specifically, the outer casing 20 has vertically arranged strip openings at the positions corresponding to the first baffle 6 and the second baffle 7. The strip openings are adapted to the size of the first baffle 6 and the second baffle 7, and the top of the strip openings is provided with a hanging beam 18. The hanging beam 18 is U-shaped and is inserted into the first baffle 6 and the second baffle 7, respectively. In addition, the outer casing 20 has a horizontally arranged slot 19 on the other side wall corresponding to the tertiary screen 8, which is used to insert the tertiary screen 8. The tertiary screen 8 can be pushed and pulled back and forth along the slot 19.
[0034] The outer shell 20 is provided with a first guide plate 4a on the outer wall corresponding to the primary screen 3; the secondary screen 13 is adjacent to the main shaft 17 on one side, and the outer shell 20 is provided with a second guide plate 4b on the outer wall corresponding to the secondary screen 13; the tertiary screen 8 is adjacent to the main shaft 17 on one side, and the outer shell 20 is provided with a third guide plate 4c on the outer wall corresponding to the tertiary screen 8; the outer shell 20 is provided with a ore block discharge port 12 and a powder ore discharge port 11 on the other side wall corresponding to the secondary screen 13 and the tertiary screen 8, respectively, and an ore block baffle 14 is provided above the ore block discharge port 12; specifically, the first guide plate 4a, the second guide plate 4b and the third guide plate 4c are all the same in shape and size, and the three are arranged in parallel, with an angle of -20 to -40 degrees to the horizontal plane in a clockwise direction.
[0035] The housing 20 is equipped with a motor switch 9 and a rotary speed regulator 10. The motor switch 9, the rotary speed regulator 10 and the geared motor 16 are all electrically connected. Specifically, timing sampling can be achieved by adjusting the adjustment baffle 2 and by using the rotary speed regulator 10 to adjust the speed of the geared motor 16.
[0036] The usage process of this utility model is as follows:
[0037] First, place the device on a movable and height-adjustable steel frame to ensure perfect compatibility with the cantilever tunneling machine or belt conveyor. The ore baffle 1 should correspond exactly to the discharge port of the cantilever tunneling machine or belt conveyor to ensure that the ore falls directly onto the guard plate 5 instead of the primary screen 3. Then, adjust the distance between the two adjusting baffles 2, and start the motor switch 9 and the rotary speed regulator 10 to adjust to a suitable motor speed to begin sampling.
[0038] When it is necessary to collect ore blocks, the first baffle 6 is activated, the second baffle 7 and the ore block baffle 14 are removed, the third-stage screen 8 is replaced with an iron plate, and a ore block collection device such as a sample bag is set below the ore block discharge port 12. Ore blocks larger than 50mm roll down to the mine car or conveyor belt through the first guide plate 4a outside the first-stage screen 3, ore blocks smaller than 20mm roll down to the mine car or conveyor belt through the third guide plate 4c outside the third-stage screen 8, and ore between 20-50mm enters the ore block collection device through the ore block discharge port 12.
[0039] When it is necessary to collect mineral powder, remove the first baffle 6 and the second baffle 7, activate the ore block baffle 14 and the three-stage screen 8, and set up ore block collection devices such as sample bags below the ore discharge port 11. Ore exceeding the ore powder particle size requirement enters the mine car or conveyor belt through the first guide plate 4a, the second guide plate 4b and the third guide plate 4c respectively, while ore powder that meets the ore powder particle size requirement enters the ore block collection device.
