Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cemented carbide manufacturing technology, specifically a cemented carbide inner liner integral pressing mold with reinforcing rib mounting groove for a large-capacity ball mill. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of cemented carbide products, wet grinding is a crucial process, its efficiency directly impacting the quality of the finished product. A wet grinding mill consists of a cylinder (inner liner), a geared motor, sprockets and chains, bearings, hydraulic cylinders, a frame, and a control system. The cylinder (inner liner) is one of the most critical components. In the 1980s and 90s, ball mills initially used alloy liners, with hundreds of alloy liners forming the inner liner. During production, these liners were prone to detachment, requiring frequent repairs and severely impacting delivery times. To address this, ball mills with non-magnetic stainless steel inner liners were developed. Using non-magnetic stainless steel for the 200L / 300L inner liner of a ball mill (also called a wet grinding mill) offers advantages such as ease of manufacture and relatively low cost. However, it also has disadvantages such as easy wear and tear, and the mixing of abrasive material with the grinding media increases impurities in the grinding media, affecting its performance. To reduce the impurities in the grinding media, some existing technologies use carbide liner materials instead of stainless steel, such as the novel carbide stirred ball mill disclosed in Chinese patent CN106513691A. However, due to the limitations of the carbide material itself, it is difficult to manufacture large-capacity carbide liners or inner tanks of 200L or more through one-piece molding.

[0003] The information disclosed in the above background section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model, and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that such information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, the purpose of this invention is to provide a one-piece pressing mold for a large-capacity ball mill carbide inner liner with reinforcing rib mounting grooves. (Approved.)

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A large-capacity ball mill carbide inner liner integrally pressed mold with reinforcing rib mounting slots. The inner liner includes a shell and a bottom plate. The shell consists of a small cylindrical surface, a small conical surface, a large conical surface, and a large cylindrical surface connected sequentially from top to bottom. The bottom plate is set at the bottom of the large cylindrical surface. Two or more reinforcing rib mounting slots are arranged longitudinally and parallel from top to bottom on the inner side of the large cylindrical surface. The mold is an assembly mold, including a square mandrel and four-lobed inner molds that fit against the four sides of the square mandrel. After the four-lobed inner molds are assembled to the four sides of the square mandrel, their outer surface shape is adapted to the shell. At the corresponding position at the lower end of the four-lobed inner molds, protrusions adapted to the reinforcing rib mounting slots are arranged longitudinally and parallel from top to bottom.

[0007] Furthermore, the two ends of the square mandrel protrude from the top and bottom surfaces of the four inner molds, respectively.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner liner has a capacity of 200-300L.

[0009] Furthermore, the internal diameter of the cross-section of the large cylindrical surface is 620–707 mm.

[0010] Furthermore, the number of reinforcing rib mounting slots is 4 to 12.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This utility model is a mold designed for the hard alloy inner liner of a large-capacity ball mill with a special shape. By combining a square mandrel with a four-lobed inner mold, the mold can be easily installed and demolded. Attached Figure Description
