Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of coal mining equipment, and in particular relates to a coal preparation and gangue removal device. Background Technology
[0002] In coal mining, gangue (coal gangue) is an associated mineral, typically accounting for 10% to 15% of the total output. The presence of gangue not only reduces coal combustion efficiency but also increases unnecessary energy consumption and pollution during transportation, storage, and combustion. Therefore, coal gangue separation is a crucial step in clean coal production, and its effectiveness directly impacts coal quality, combustion efficiency, and environmental pollution control.
[0003] Currently, the coal mining industry mainly uses the following two methods for gangue sorting: The first is manual sorting: Workers wear protective equipment (masks, earplugs, etc.) and manually pick out gangue next to the conveyor belt. Disadvantages: High labor intensity, workers are prone to fatigue after long hours of work, low sorting efficiency (usually ≤2 tons / hour); harsh working environment with high dust and noise levels (≥85dB), posing long-term health risks to workers. The second method is mechanical sorting based on color and weight differences: An array of air nozzles is installed at the conveyor belt outlet. Utilizing the physical differences between coal (black, lighter) and gangue (gray / dark, heavier), airflow is used to achieve sorting. Disadvantages: Increased dust pollution; high-speed airflow causes coal dust diffusion, increasing dust concentration in the work area by 30%~50%, failing to meet clean production requirements. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a coal mine coal preparation and gangue removal device that reduces reliance on manual labor, improves sorting efficiency, and solves the problem of dust diffusion caused by airflow jetting of coal gangue in existing sorting equipment.
[0005] To achieve the above and other related objectives, this utility model provides a coal mine coal preparation and gangue removal device, including a feeding screening mechanism, a transfer and gangue removal mechanism, and a dust suppression mechanism;
[0006] The feeding screening mechanism is used to screen and filter fine coal, including an inclined screen and a fine coal collection device located at the bottom of the screen.
[0007] The transfer and waste disposal mechanism includes a conveyor belt and a waste disposal assembly; the input end of the conveyor belt is located at the bottom of the output end of the screen; the waste disposal assembly includes a camera and an execution assembly; the camera is arranged correspondingly to the conveyor belt and is used to identify and distinguish between coal ore and coal gangue on the conveyor belt; the execution assembly is located at the bottom of the output end of the conveyor belt and is used to spray coal ore and coal gangue into their respective receiving boxes.
[0008] The dust suppression mechanism includes a dust cover that is inverted on top of both the feeding screening mechanism and the transfer and waste disposal mechanism, and an air suction dust suppressor that connects to the inside of the dust cover.
[0009] Optionally, the fine coal collecting device is an inverted cone-shaped receiving hopper, and the bottom end of the fine coal collecting device is provided with a fine coal discharge port.
[0010] Optionally, the top of the coal collecting device is provided with a feed baffle.
[0011] Optionally, the camera is fixedly connected to the inner side of the top wall of the dust cover, and the camera is arranged correspondingly to the output end of the conveyor belt.
[0012] Optionally, the execution component includes a plurality of nozzles evenly distributed along the width of the conveyor belt and an air pump connected to each of the plurality of nozzles; each of the plurality of nozzles is provided with an electronic control switch.
[0013] Optionally, the plurality of nozzles include a pump connection portion arranged horizontally along the length of the conveyor belt and an output portion arranged obliquely upward.
[0014] Optionally, the output sections of the plurality of nozzles are arranged at an upward tilt of 15°-25°.
[0015] Optionally, two parallel receiving troughs are fixedly connected to the side wall of the dust cover corresponding to the output end of the conveyor belt; the bottom of the two receiving troughs is provided with through holes along the length of the receiving trough.
[0016] Optionally, the suction dust suppressor includes a suction pipe laid on the outside of the dust cover and a vacuum cleaner connected to the gas outlet of the suction pipe.
[0017] Optionally, the suction pipe is connected to the dust cover by at least two suction ports, and the two suction ports are respectively arranged to correspond to the feed port and the output end of the conveyor belt.
[0018] As described above, the coal mine coal preparation and gangue removal device of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0019] This utility model achieves multi-stage processing of coal and ore materials by adding a feeding screening mechanism to the coal preparation and gangue removal device in a coal mine: effectively separating coal powder from ore particles, improving sorting accuracy, and simultaneously completing the automated collection of fine coal; the subsequent transfer and gangue removal component adopts a dynamic sorting and conveying combined operation mode: through the combination of airflow jetting and mechanical conveying, coal gangue and coal ore are identified, distinguished, and accurately separated, and the sorted material directly enters the corresponding conveying channel, avoiding secondary mixing, thus completing the sorting of coal ore and coal gangue; finally, a dual protection system is formed by the dust cover and suction dust collector in the dust suppression mechanism: the dust cover adopts an enclosed design and works with the suction dust collector to reduce the dust diffusion range at the feed inlet, and the suction dust collector is linked with the jetting action of the execution component to capture coal powder particles generated during operation in real time, reducing the dust concentration in the working environment, meeting the coal mine safety regulations standards, reducing reliance on manual labor, improving sorting efficiency, and preventing the problem of coal powder diffusion caused by the dumping of coal ore to be screened at the feed inlet and the jetting action of the execution component.
[0020] This utility model designs the coal powder collector in an inverted cone shape, which forms a progressive gathering channel. It utilizes the material's own weight to automatically gather the coal powder. The bottom coal powder outlet is directly connected to the conveying equipment, realizing continuous "screening-collection-transfer" operation and shortening the single operation cycle. The feed baffle forms a physical barrier, effectively intercepting splashed particles when dumping materials. At the same time, the cone structure saves installation space compared to the parallel bin wall design and avoids coal powder accumulation at the bottom corners.
[0021] This invention integrates a camera (such as a CCD camera or laser sensor) into the top wall of a dustproof cover, maintaining it within the optimal detection range of the conveyor belt. The identified data is transmitted in real time to an external computer (such as a PLC), and after processing by a grayscale / texture analysis algorithm, a blowing command is generated, forming a closed-loop sorting system of "detection and execution". Multiple nozzles evenly distributed along the width of the conveyor belt form a sorting array, which can simultaneously process multiple targets on the conveyor belt. The nozzle output ends are arranged at an angle of 15°-25° upward, so that the blowing airflow generates a vertical component force to offset part of the material's gravity, and a horizontal component force to increase the material's leaping distance, ensuring that the sorted material accurately falls into the distant receiving box.
[0022] This utility model separates the suction dust suppressor into a suction pipe laid on the outside of the dust cover and a dust collector connected to the gas outlet of the suction pipe. The split design arranges the suction pipe along the outer wall of the dust cover, with its two suction ports corresponding to the feed inlet (first capture zone) and the upper part of the blow-off position at the output end of the conveyor belt (second capture zone), forming a directional airflow barrier. This prevents the spread of coal dust caused by the tilting of the coal to be screened at the feed inlet and the blowing of the actuator. The opening of the dampers of the two suction ports can also be adjusted according to the actual dust concentration to achieve on-demand air volume distribution. Attached Figure Description
