Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical equipment technology, specifically relating to a vertical mill hydraulic cylinder assembly, used to provide pressure to the grinding rollers against the grinding disc during grinding, and to lift the grinding rollers and protect the grinding disc when not in operation. Background Technology

[0002] A mill is a device used to grind larger particles into powder. The grinding process involves using a mill to compress and grind materials into fine particles, which are then screened. Mills can be categorized based on the material being processed and their working principle, including: ball mills, column mills, rod mills, tube mills, autogenous mills, vortex roller mills, vertical mills, multi-layer vertical mills, vertical roller mills, and DMC mills.

[0003] In existing vertical mills, hydraulic cylinders apply pressure to the grinding rollers during operation to grind and pulverize materials. During this process, variations in feed rate and material particle size lead to changes in the material layer thickness, causing the grinding rollers, as the grinding components, to move up and down accordingly. Simultaneously, since one end of a rocker arm is connected to the grinding roller shaft, and the other end is connected to the hydraulic cylinder, the hydraulic cylinder swings back and forth as the grinding roller moves up and down. Through an external hydraulic system and energy storage device, the working pressure of the rod-side and rodless chambers of the hydraulic cylinder changes slowly with the up-and-down movement of the grinding roller, reducing the impact of the grinding roller on the grinding disc. This, in turn, reduces mill vibration, allowing for stable mill operation. However, in existing technology, different mill models have different dimensions, and the stroke range of their hydraulic cylinders also varies. This means that hydraulic cylinders used in mills with the same roller pressure but different models cannot be interchanged, increasing inventory, product costs, and operational risks. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing hydraulic cylinders used in mills with different roller pressures of the same level, which cannot be interchanged, increasing inventory, product costs, and usage risks. This invention proposes a vertical mill hydraulic cylinder assembly that allows for the interchangeability of hydraulic cylinders from mills with different roller pressures of the same level. By replacing one or two auxiliary parts, it adapts to different mill models, achieving mill standardization, increasing component interchangeability, and reducing product costs.
