Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ore crushing and grinding equipment, specifically to a high-efficiency ore crushing, grinding and desliming system. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of industry, the development and supply of mineral resources have become a fundamental condition for ensuring the development of national industry. However, the problem of scarce, fine, and complex mineral resources in my country has become increasingly serious, leading many Chinese mining companies to expand their operations overseas. In the development of low-grade gold mineral resources in tropical rainforest regions, large amounts of high-mud, oxidized ore are stored on the surface, which is highly susceptible to mud formation upon contact with water. Furthermore, the total rainfall in tropical rainforest regions can exceed 3500 mm. The combination of high-mud ore and heavy rainfall poses a significant challenge to the crushing and transportation of ore in the beneficiation process.

[0003] In such an environment, ore crushing systems, especially medium and fine crushing systems, are easily clogged by high-mud, wet ore, causing equipment to stick and discharge ports to become blocked. This renders the medium and fine crushing systems inoperable and forces them to shut down, requiring constant manual clearing of the discharge ports. Furthermore, when conveyor belts transport high-mud, high-wet ore, the ore on the belts is prone to slippage, resulting in extremely low operating rates (less than 60%) for the entire crushing and production system, significantly impacting production and enterprise efficiency.

The outlet of the intermediate stockpile is connected to the entrance of the ball mill via a conveyor belt. The discharge outlet of the ball mill is connected to the entrance of the first slurry tank. The first slurry tank is connected to the feed port of the first hydrocyclone via the first slurry pump.

[0011] Furthermore, rainproof canopies are installed above the raw ore stockpile, intermediate stockpile, and all conveyor belts.

[0012] Furthermore, the discharge opening width of the jaw crusher is 130mm; the discharge opening width of the medium crushed product of the first cone crusher is 45mm; and the discharge opening width of the fine crushed product of the second cone crusher is 15mm.

[0013] Furthermore, the first layer of the four-layer linear vibrating screen has an aperture of 80mm, the second layer has an aperture of 50mm, the third layer has an aperture of 16mm, and the fourth layer has an aperture of 2mm; the screen aperture of the four-layer linear vibrating screen is 2500mm long × 5000mm wide.

[0014] Furthermore, a row of flushing water pipes is provided on both sides of the top of the four-layer linear vibrating screen, and each row of flushing water pipes is provided with upper and lower layers; the diameter of the outlet of each flushing water pipe gradually decreases along the water outlet direction.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] (1) In view of the difficulty in operating the crushing and conveying system of high mud content ore in the tropical rainforest with heavy rainfall and normal climate, this utility model adopts an improved four-layer linear vibrating screen. By designing screens of different sizes and setting flushing water pipes on both sides of the four-layer linear vibrating screen, the four-layer linear vibrating screen has the dual functions of screening and washing ore. The coarse and medium screens can screen coarse and medium particles for medium and fine crushing, and the fine screen can screen fine particles.

[0018] (3) This utility model achieves the function of secondary grading and desliming by adding a fourth slurry tank, a fourth slurry pump and a second hydrocyclone to the overflow port of the first hydrocyclone, thereby enhancing the effect of grading and desliming.

[0019] (4) In this utility model, after the second hydrocyclone classifies and deslims, the fine mud can be sent to the carbon leaching system for separate treatment after thickening and settling. This can solve the difficulty of flotation recovery of fine mud minerals. The overflow of the thickener can enter the flotation return water system without wasting water resources. The underflow of the secondary classification is sent to the flotation system, which can reduce the coverage of fine mud on the surface of minerals, reduce the mud and increase the flotation concentration, thereby helping to improve the flotation recovery rate and achieve efficient recovery of high mud gold ore.

[0020] (5) This utility model is designed for the development of high-mud ore in tropical rainforest areas. It can greatly improve the efficiency of ore crushing and ore conveying, effectively improve the equipment operating rate, increase the equipment operating rate from 60% to 85%, increase the daily ore processing capacity from 7,500 tons to 10,625 tons, and finally realize the separate production of ore slime, which can be independently fed into the carbon leaching system. It helps to improve the beneficiation index of high-mud gold ore and is of great significance for the efficient development of difficult-to-process high-mud ore in tropical rainforest areas. It can also provide important reference for the crushing and development of similar ores. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The working principle of the above-mentioned efficient ore crushing and desliming system is as follows:

[0031] Raw ore is fed from the ore stockpile into the inlet of the heavy plate feeder 1. The discharge from the heavy plate feeder 1 is fed into the jaw crusher 2 for coarse crushing. The coarse crushed product from the jaw crusher 2 is conveyed by a conveyor belt to the feed port of the four-layer linear vibrating screen 3. The material oversize from the first and second screens of the four-layer linear vibrating screen 3 is conveyed by a conveyor belt to the first cone crusher 4 for medium crushing.

[0032] The fine crushed product from the second cone crusher 6, the oversize material from the third screen of the four-layer linear vibrating screen 3, and the medium crushed product from the first cone crusher 4 are all fed into a single-layer vibrating screen 5. The oversize material from the single-layer vibrating screen 5 is returned to the second cone crusher 6 for fine crushing via a conveyor belt.

[0035] The overflow from the thickener 17 enters the flotation return water system, and the underflow from the thickener 17 is pumped to the carbon leaching system by the fourth slurry pump 18 for carbon leaching.

Each row of flushing water pipes 19 has two layers, upper and lower. The diameter of the outlet of each flushing water pipe 19 gradually decreases along the water outlet direction, which can increase the water pressure and enhance the flushing effect. When it is necessary to wash the ore inside the four-layer linear vibrating screen 3, the water source is turned on to supply water to the flushing water pipes 19 on both sides. The pressurized flushing water enters the four-layer linear vibrating screen 3 from both sides, which can effectively and thoroughly wash the ore inside the four-layer linear vibrating screen 3.
