Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ore processing technology, and more specifically, to a flotation device that is easy to clean. Background Technology

[0002] A flotation machine, short for flotation mineral processing machine, refers to the mechanical equipment that completes the flotation process. In a flotation machine, after the slurry has been treated with reagents, it is agitated and aerated, causing some mineral particles to selectively adhere to the air bubbles, float to the surface of the slurry, and be scraped off to form a froth product, while the rest remain in the slurry, thus achieving the purpose of separating minerals.

[0003] A search revealed that utility model patent CN213494308U discloses a flotation device that is easy to clean. It includes a flotation chamber with two placement seats extending along its length on the upper part of the chamber. A mounting bracket is provided on the upper part of each placement seat, and a flotation mechanism extending into the chamber is installed within the mounting bracket. A fixed seat is provided on each placement seat, and a horizontally extending hinge shaft is fixedly inserted through the mounting bracket. One end of the hinge shaft, facing away from the mounting bracket, passes through the fixed seat, and the extension direction of the hinge shaft is perpendicular to the extension direction of the flotation chamber. This patent improves the cleaning efficiency of the flotation machine. However, the above patent has the following shortcomings: although the flotation mechanism can be rotated and lifted for cleaning, this results in the flotation mechanism being located on one side of the flotation chamber, leading to poorer flotation on the other side of the chamber during flotation operations, affecting the flotation quality. Furthermore, even after the flotation mechanism is lifted, it is still inconvenient to clean the inner wall of the flotation chamber. Therefore, we propose a flotation device that is easy to clean. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a flotation device that is easy to clean.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A flotation device for easy cleaning includes a flotation tank with a rinsing mechanism. Two mounting bases are fixedly installed at the rear of the flotation tank, and hydraulic cylinders are fixedly installed on each of the two mounting bases. A lifting frame is fixedly connected to the top of each of the two hydraulic cylinders. One end of the lifting frame extends above the flotation tank and is fixedly connected to a support plate. A stirring cylinder is rotatably connected to the support plate. The bottom end of the stirring cylinder extends to the bottom of the flotation tank's inner cavity and is fixedly connected to an impeller. A second synchronous pulley is fixedly sleeved on the top of the stirring cylinder. A first motor is fixedly installed on the top surface of the support plate, and a first synchronous pulley is fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the first motor. A synchronous belt drives between the first and second synchronous pulleys. A foam scraping mechanism is provided at the front of the top of the flotation tank.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the rinsing mechanism includes two supports fixedly connected to the top surface of the flotation tank, with a support plate located between the two supports. Each support has a movable groove on its bottom surface. A sliding rod is fixedly sleeved within the inner cavity of one movable groove, and a reciprocating screw is rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the other movable groove. A second motor is fixedly mounted at the end of one support, and the output shaft of the second motor is connected to the end of the reciprocating screw. A movable seat is threaded onto the outer side of the reciprocating screw, and the bottom end of the movable seat extends to the bottom of the support and is fixed. A movable plate is connected to the slide rod, and a slide seat is movably sleeved on the outside of the slide rod. The bottom end of the slide seat is connected to the top surface of the movable plate. Two multi-stage electric push rods are fixedly installed on the movable plate. The bottom ends of the two multi-stage electric push rods extend to the bottom of the movable plate and are fixedly connected to a water distribution box. Spray nozzles are fixedly installed on the bottom surface and both ends of the water distribution box. A water pump is fixedly installed on the top surface of the movable plate. A water pump is fixedly connected to the input end of the water pump and to the output end of the water pump. A telescopic hose is fixedly connected to the output end of the water pump, and the bottom end of the telescopic hose is fixedly sleeved into the inner cavity of the water distribution box.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a feed pipe is provided at the bottom of the rear part of the flotation box, and a flotation tank is provided at the front part of the flotation box.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a control panel is fixedly installed on the side of the flotation tank, and the control panel is electrically connected to the first motor, the hydraulic cylinder, the second motor, the multi-stage electric push rod and the water pump respectively.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the impeller is located in the middle of the flotation tank cavity, and the impeller is located below the two supports.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the sides of the movable seat and the slide are respectively fitted to the inner walls of the two movable slots.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0013] (1) In this utility model, the mixing drum and impeller are supported in the middle of the flotation box cavity by the cooperation of the mounting base, hydraulic cylinder, lifting frame and support plate to float the ore. When it is necessary to clean the impeller, the hydraulic cylinder drives the lifting frame, support plate, mixing drum and impeller to move upward, so that the impeller is lifted above the support, so that the impeller can be rinsed by the external water pipe, thus realizing the function of convenient cleaning of the impeller.

[0014] (2) In this utility model, after the impeller is lifted from the inner cavity of the flotation box, the water pump is used to draw the external water into the inner cavity of the water distribution box, and the water in the water distribution box is sprayed out from multiple nozzles. The water sprayed out by the nozzles washes the inner wall of the flotation box. At the same time, the second motor drives the reciprocating screw to rotate. The threaded engagement between the reciprocating screw and the moving seat drives the moving seat, the moving plate and the water distribution box to move laterally, changing the lateral position of the nozzle washing. The multi-stage electric push rod drives the water distribution box and the nozzle to move up and down reciprocally, changing the longitudinal position of the nozzle washing, so as to achieve the washing of the inner wall of the flotation box.

At the same time, the second motor 18 is started to drive the reciprocating screw 17 to rotate. Through the threaded engagement between the reciprocating screw 17 and the moving seat 19, the moving seat 19, the moving plate 21, and the water distribution box 23 are moved laterally, changing the lateral position of the nozzles 24 for rinsing. In addition, the multi-stage electric push rod 22 is used to drive the water distribution box 23 and the nozzles 24 to move up and down reciprocally, changing the longitudinal position of the nozzles 24 for rinsing, so as to achieve rinsing of the inner wall of the flotation tank 1.
