Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of ore bin cleaning devices, and particularly relates to a powder ore bin cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] In the lead-zinc mining industry, crushed lead-zinc ore powder is stored in a powder silo with a funnel at the bottom. Because the material is in powder form, a lot of powder lumps and powder will stick to the inner wall of the silo. This powder needs to be cleaned and recycled.
[0003] In existing technologies, a certain number of vibrating motors are generally installed on the outer wall of the powder ore silo. When cleaning the silo, the energy generated by the vibration of the vibrating motors shakes the powder off the inner wall of the silo, thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning the powder ore silo.
[0004] This method has the following drawbacks: First, existing technical solutions involve installing a vibrating motor on the outer wall of the ore powder bin to vibrate and clean the dust off the inner wall. However, the vibration range of the vibrating motor decreases with distance, making it difficult to receive sufficient vibration to clean the powder off the inner wall of the ore powder at locations far from the motor. Second, while installing a spray pipe above the bin can clean it by spraying high-pressure water onto the inner wall, this requires additional space above the bin, and dust during loading can easily accumulate on the nozzles, causing blockages and making maintenance difficult. Third, when using water spray to clean the inner wall of the bin, the water flows directly downwards through the feeding mechanism. Since a conveyor belt is typically installed below the bin, the water flows directly onto the water spray mechanism, causing pollution and wasting resources.
[0005] Therefore, this paper provides a powder ore bin cleaning device. Utility Model Content

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown:
[0028] The prior art in this embodiment has the following problems: The inventors have found the following defects in the prior art: 1. In the existing technical solution, a vibrating motor is installed on the outer wall of the powder ore bin. The vibration of the vibrating motor is used to clean the dust on the inner wall of the powder ore bin. However, the vibration range of the vibrating motor will decrease with the increase of distance. It is not easy to receive enough vibration to clean the powder on the inner wall of the powder ore bin at the position far away from the vibrating motor. 2. By setting up a spray pipe above the bin, the bin can be cleaned by spraying high-pressure spray water onto the inner wall of the bin. However, setting up the spray mechanism requires additional space above the bin. In addition, the dust diffusion during the bin loading process is easy to accumulate on the nozzle, causing the nozzle to be blocked, making the spray mechanism difficult to maintain. 3. When using spray water to clean the inner wall of the bin, the spray water will flow directly downward through the feeding mechanism. There is usually a conveyor belt mechanism below the bin. The spray water flows directly onto the spray water mechanism, causing pollution and wasting resources.
[0029] Therefore, the inventor provides a powder ore bin cleaning device, including a bin body 1, a feeding mechanism 2, and a cleaning mechanism. The feeding mechanism 2 is located below the discharge port below the bin body 1, and the cleaning mechanism is located on the outside of the bin body 1 and is electrically connected to the control cabinet. The cleaning mechanism also includes an inner wall cleaning mechanism 3 and a spray treatment mechanism. The inner wall cleaning mechanism 3 is located above the bin body 1, and the spray treatment mechanism is located on the right side of the inner wall cleaning mechanism 3 and the right side of the feeding mechanism 2.
[0030] Using the above scheme, after the powder in the silo body 1 is discharged through the feeding mechanism 2, the operator starts the inner wall cleaning mechanism 3 through the control cabinet to clean the powder on the inner wall of the silo body 1. The powder falls downward into the feeding mechanism 2 and is discharged. Then, the spray treatment mechanism is used to further clean the inner wall. The wastewater generated is collected from the feeding mechanism 2 for recycling.
[0031] Furthermore, a connecting flange a4 is provided at the right outlet of the feeding mechanism 2;
[0032] Among them, the connecting flange a4 can be connected to the sewage collection device to recover the generated sewage when the spray treatment mechanism is started.
[0033] Furthermore, the inner wall cleaning mechanism 3 also includes a linear guide rail 5, a rotating platform 6, an electric winch 7, a connecting pipe 8, a rotary motor 9, and a cleaning head 10. The linear guide rail 5 is respectively set on the front and rear sides above the hopper body 1. The rotating platform 6 is set above the slider of the linear guide rail 5. The electric winch 7 is set above the rotating platform 6. The connecting pipe 8 is set on the electric winch 7. The rotary motor 9 is set at the end of the connecting pipe 8. The cleaning head 10 is set below the output end below the rotary motor 9.
[0034] In normal operation, the slider of the linear guide 5 is located at the top of the linear guide 5. The electric winch 7 retracts the connecting pipe 8, and the rotating platform 6 rotates the connecting pipe 8 with the cleaning head 10 to the outside of the hopper. When it is necessary to clean the powder on the inner wall of the hopper, the rotating platform 6 rotates to bring the cleaning head 10 into the inner wall of the hopper. The electric winch 7 releases the connecting pipe 8, and the rotating motor 9 drives the cleaning head 10 to rotate. The cleaning head 10 cleans the dust on the inner wall of the hopper. During the cleaning process, the electric winch 7 releases the extended connecting pipe 8 in sections, while the linear guide 5 moves a distance at intervals. Through this coordinated movement, after the cleaning head 10 has cleaned the dust on the inner wall in the vertical direction, the linear guide 5 moves to the top of the next section of the inner wall of the hopper that needs to be cleaned. The electric winch 7 drives the connecting pipe 8 to retract, and the cleaning head 10 cleans the inner wall from bottom to top. This process is repeated to complete the cleaning of the inner wall of the hopper.
[0035] Furthermore, a chuck 11 is provided on the right side of the slider of the linear guide 5, and a bolt-connected clamping structure is provided on the right end of the chuck 11.
[0036] The clamp 11 can be used to fix the spray pipe. The clamp 11 can be made of rubber or plastic. The spray pipe is inserted into the round hole of the clamp 11, and the clamp 11 is tightened and fixed to the spray pipe by bolt connection. It can be removed after use.
[0037] Furthermore, the electric winch 7 is also provided with a bracket 12, a rotating shaft 13, and a limit card 14 on the front side. The bracket 12 is located on the rear side of the electric winch 7, the rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the top of the bracket 12, and the limit card 14 is fixedly located on the front side of the rotating shaft 13.
[0038] During the elongation and shortening process, the connecting tube 8 rotates on the rotating shaft 13 of the bracket 12. At the same time, the connecting tube 8 is positioned between the rotating shaft 13 and the limiting card 14. The rotating shaft 13 reduces the wear on the outer layer of the connecting tube 8 during the extension and retraction process, and the limiting card 14 prevents the connecting tube 8 from disengaging from the rotating shaft 13 due to vibration generated when the rotating motor 9 drives the cleaning head 10 to rotate.
[0039] Furthermore, the cleaning head 10 also includes a connecting cylinder 15, a connecting rope 16, and a cleaning ball 17. The connecting cylinder 15 is connected below the output end of the rotary motor 9, and the cleaning ball 17 is connected to the side of the connecting cylinder 15 via the connecting rope 16.
[0040] The rotary motor 9 drives the connecting cylinder 15, which in turn drives the cleaning ball 17 to rotate via the connecting rope 16. The cleaning ball 17 can be a metal ball wrapped in rubber. By having the cleaning ball 17 strike the inner wall of the powder hopper, and in conjunction with the linear guide rail 5 and the electric winch 7 striking different positions on the inner wall, the powder adhering to the inner wall of the powder hopper is shaken off and cleaned. During the rotation of the cleaning ball 17, vibrations are generated by striking at different positions. At the same time, the length of the cleaning rope can be adjusted to change the cleaning range. Dust on the inner walls of the left and right sides of the powder hopper can be cleaned by extending the connecting rope 16, thus increasing the cleaning range and ensuring the cleaning effect.
[0041] Furthermore, the inside of the connecting pipe 8 is equipped with wires that connect to the rotary motor 9;
[0042] The electrical wires ensure a continuous power supply to the rotary motor 9 during the cleaning process.
[0043] Furthermore, the spray treatment mechanism also includes a cleaning rod 18 and a sewage recovery cylinder 19. The cleaning rod 18 is detachably mounted on the clamp 11, and the sewage recovery cylinder 19 is mounted on the right side of the feeding mechanism 2 via a flange connection.
[0044] During normal use, the cleaning rod 18 and the wastewater recovery cylinder 19 are removed. The powder silo and the feeding mechanism 2 work normally to feed the powder onto the conveyor belt. After the inner wall cleaning mechanism 3 has finished cleaning, when the spray treatment mechanism is needed for cleaning, the cleaning rod 18 is fixed on the clamp 11, the spray angle is adjusted by rotation, and the wastewater recovery cylinder 19 is connected to the right side of the feeding mechanism 2 through the flange connection. The inner wall of the silo can then be sprayed and cleaned, and the wastewater generated is recycled through the wastewater recovery cylinder 19.
[0045] Furthermore, the cleaning rod 18 also includes a water supply pipe 20, a nozzle 21, and a threaded pipe joint 22. The nozzle 21 is respectively located below the water supply pipe 20, and the threaded pipe is located on the rear side of the water supply pipe 20.
[0046] After setting the angle of the cleaning rod 18, the high-pressure water supply pipe 20 is connected to the water supply pipe 20 through the threaded pipe joint 22. After water supply, high-pressure water is sprayed out from the nozzle 21 to spray and clean the inner wall of the hopper. During the process, the cleaning rod 18 moves with the linear guide rail 5 to change position, so that the nozzle 21 can clean the inner wall of the hopper completely. After cleaning, the cleaning rod 18 can be removed. This saves installation space and can be used immediately after installation. There is no need to worry about dust clogging the nozzle 21, which reduces the maintenance problems of the spraying mechanism.
[0047] Furthermore, the wastewater recycling cylinder 19 also includes a connecting flange b23, a cylinder body 24, a collection hopper 25, and a sewage pipe connector 26. The cylinder body 24 is located on the right side of the feeding mechanism 2 and is connected to the feeding mechanism 2 through the connecting flange b23. The collection hopper 25 is located below the cylinder body 24, and the sewage pipe connector 26 is located below the collection hopper 25 and is provided with a threaded interface.
[0048] When using the cleaning rod 18 to spray and clean the hopper, the cylinder 24 is installed on the connecting flange a4 below the feeding mechanism 2. Then, the sewage pipe is connected to the bottom of the sewage pipe joint 26. The generated spray sewage is discharged into the cylinder 24 through the feeding mechanism 2, and then discharged through the sewage pipe through the collection hopper 25 for collection and recycling. This can prevent sewage from flowing out and causing pollution during spray cleaning, and at the same time, it can prevent resources from being wasted. The cylinder can be removed after the spray cleaning is completed.
[0049] In summary, the device is equipped with an inner wall cleaning mechanism 3, which generates vibration by striking different positions during the rotation of the cleaning ball 17. The cleaning range can be changed by adjusting the length of the cleaning rope. Dust on the inner walls of the left and right sides of the powder hopper can be cleaned by extending the connecting rope 16, thus increasing the cleaning range and ensuring cleaning effectiveness. A spray treatment mechanism allows for the installation and removal of the cleaning rod 18, saving installation space and allowing for immediate use. It also eliminates concerns about dust clogging the nozzle 21, reducing maintenance issues for the spray mechanism. A detachable wastewater recovery cylinder 19 prevents wastewater from flowing out and causing pollution during spray cleaning, while also preventing resource waste. It can be removed after spray cleaning is complete.
[0050] The working principle of this utility model:
[0051] When using the inner wall cleaning mechanism 3, the rotating platform 6 rotates, bringing the cleaning head 10 into the inner wall of the hopper. The electric winch 7 releases the connecting pipe 8, and the rotating motor 9 drives the cleaning head 10 to rotate. The rotating motor 9 drives the connecting cylinder 15, which in turn drives the cleaning ball 17 to rotate via the connecting rope 16. The cleaning ball 17 can be a metal ball wrapped in rubber. By having the cleaning ball 17 strike the inner wall of the powder hopper, the electric winch 7 releases the extended connecting pipe 8 in sections during the cleaning process. At the same time, the linear guide rail 5 moves a distance at intervals. Through this coordinated movement, after the cleaning head 10 has cleaned the dust on the inner wall in the vertical direction, the linear guide rail 5 moves to the top of the next section of the inner wall of the hopper that needs to be cleaned. The electric winch 7 drives the connecting pipe 8 to retract, and the cleaning head 10 cleans the inner wall from bottom to top. During the rotation of the cleaning ball 17, vibrations are generated by striking at different positions. At the same time, the length of the cleaning rope can be adjusted to change the cleaning range. The dust on the inner walls on the left and right sides of the powder hopper can be cleaned by extending the connecting rope 16, which increases the cleaning range and ensures the cleaning effect.
[0052] After cleaning, the electric winch 7 retracts the connecting pipe 8, and the rotary motor 9 and the linear guide rail 5 are reset.
[0053] When the spray treatment mechanism is needed for cleaning, the cleaning rod 18 is fixed on the clamp 11, the spray angle is adjusted by rotation, and the sewage recovery cylinder 19 is connected to the right side of the feeding mechanism 2 through the flange connection. The high-pressure water supply pipe 20 is connected to the water supply pipe 20 through the threaded pipe joint 22. After water supply, high-pressure water is sprayed out from the nozzle 21 to spray and clean the inner wall of the hopper. During the process, the cleaning rod 18 moves and changes position with the linear guide rail 5 so that the nozzle 21 can clean the inner wall of the hopper. The generated spray wastewater is discharged into the cylinder 24 through the feeding mechanism 2, and then discharged through the sewage pipe through the collection hopper 25 for collection and recycling. This can prevent sewage from flowing out and causing pollution during spray cleaning, and at the same time prevent resource waste.
[0054] After cleaning, the cleaning rod 18 can be removed, saving installation space and allowing for immediate use. There is no need to worry about dust clogging the nozzle 21, reducing the maintenance issues of the spray mechanism.
[0055] Finally, after the sewage has been drained, remove the sewage pipe and sewage collection cylinder 19 to complete the cleaning operation;
[0056] This concludes the description of the working principle of the device.
