[0021] The utility model will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to the content.
[0022] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the application provides a sound attenuation pressure relief device for concentrate dehydration process in copper smelting slag beneficiation, which comprises a box body 1, a partition 2, an air inlet pipe 3 and an exhaust pipe 4.
[0023] The box 1 is vertically installed with a partition plate 2, which is also made of 10mm-thick stainless steel plate. The partition plate 2 is evenly spaced along the length direction of the box 1, and the adjacent two partition plates 2 are alternately connected with the inner top and inner bottom of the box 1, so as to divide the internal cavity of the box 1 into a serpentine channel. Specifically, the box 1 is provided with five partition plates 2, the first partition plate 2 is fixedly connected with the inner top surface of the box 1, the second partition plate 2 is fixedly connected with the inner bottom of the box 1, the third partition plate 2 is fixedly connected with the inner top surface of the box 1, and the five partition plates 2 are alternately arranged in this way. The five partition plates 2 divide the internal cavity of the box 1 into six cavities which are connected with each other and arranged in sequence, forming a serpentine channel. The gas enters and flows through each cavity in sequence. Each cavity corresponds to a buffering and processing space. When the gas enters the cavity, its flow direction and speed will change, and the gas flow will be further dispersed. In the cavity, the gas continuously collides and mixes, and the pressure gradually homogenizes and further decreases. Moreover, the design of multiple cavities increases the flow path and residence time of the gas, so that the impurities and moisture in the gas have more opportunities to precipitate, providing conditions for subsequent pollution discharge operation. The series structure of multiple cavities also has a certain damping effect on the gas, consuming the energy of the gas, thereby assisting to achieve the effects of pressure relief and noise reduction.
[0024] The box 1 is provided with an air inlet pipe 3 and an air outlet pipe 4. The air inlet pipe 3 is connected with one end of the serpentine channel, and the air outlet pipe 4 is connected with the other end of the serpentine channel.
[0025] The air inlet pipe 3 is provided with variable diameter, and the end with larger diameter is connected with the box 1. In some specific embodiments, the air inlet pipe 3 is provided with variable diameter twice, and the variable diameter multiples are 1.2 and 1.4 respectively. The variable diameter changes the flow rate and pressure of the gas by changing the pipe diameter. When the gas enters the larger pipe diameter from the smaller pipe diameter (the first variable diameter is 1.2), according to the principle of fluid mechanics, the flow rate of the gas will decrease, and the pressure will also decrease accordingly, thereby achieving the effect of preliminary pressure relief. The second variable diameter is 1.4, which further expands the pipe diameter, so that the gas reduces the flow rate and pressure before entering the cavities of the box 1, thereby avoiding the direct impact of high-pressure and high-speed gas on the inside of the box 1, reducing the noise and damage to the device caused by the impact of the gas, and also being conducive to more stable gas treatment in the cavities.
[0026] The air outlet pipe 4 is provided with a porous sound-absorbing material 5. The porous structure of the porous sound-absorbing material 5 can make the sound waves reflect and scatter multiple times in it, converting sound energy into heat energy and consuming it, thereby greatly reducing the noise of the exhaust gas.
[0027] The side bottom of the box 1 is provided with a blowdown pipe, and a valve can be arranged on the blowdown pipe, so that the impurities and water precipitated in the bottom of the box 1 can be discharged from the inside of the device by periodically opening the blowdown valve, the inside of the device is kept clean, and the normal operation and processing effect of the device are maintained. Specifically, three blowdown pipes are arranged, and the number and frequency of the three blowdown valves can be flexibly selected according to the actual precipitation condition, so that the efficiency and flexibility of blowdown are improved.
[0028] In use, the air inlet pipe 3 is connected to the exhaust pipe of the filter cake drying air through a pipeline, so that the mixture of air, water and ore is introduced into the device, and the blowdown pipe is connected to the thickening tank through a pipeline, so that the ore precipitated in the box 1 is introduced into the thickening tank for treatment.
[0029] In some embodiments, the end of the exhaust pipe 4 is provided with an elbow 6, and the gas outlet end of the elbow 6 is arranged vertically downward. This design not only changes the direction of gas discharge, avoids the direct upward injection of gas to the surrounding environment, but also further consumes the gas energy through the reflection and collision of the gas at the elbow 6 to assist pressure relief. In addition, the longer pipe increases the flow distance of the gas and prolongs the residence time of the gas in the pipe, so that the pressure relief and sound attenuation process is more sufficient, and the overall performance of the device is improved.
[0030] In this embodiment, at least one exhaust pipe 4 is arranged, and the number or diameter of the exhaust pipe 4 can be increased according to different working conditions during actual use, so as to achieve sufficient pressure relief.
[0031] In some embodiments, the outer side of the box 1 is provided with a reinforcing rib 7, and the reinforcing rib 7 adopts a channel steel with a back rib. The channel steel has good bending resistance, and by being reasonably arranged outside the box 1 and cooperating with the back rib, the structural rigidity of the box 1 can be enhanced, the stress can be dispersed, the deformation of the box 1 under the long-term bearing of internal gas pressure and external environmental action can be prevented, and the service life and safety of the device can be improved.
[0032] The above has described various embodiments of the present application, and the above description is exemplary, not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and changes are obvious to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The selection of terms used herein is intended to best explain the principles, practical applications or improvements of the technology in the market, or to enable other ordinary skilled persons in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
