Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glaze grinding technology, and in particular to a ball mill for glaze grinding. Background Technology

[0002] In industries such as ceramics and glass, the fineness of the glaze plays a decisive role in product quality. Traditional glaze grinding processes face numerous challenges. Early grinding equipment often featured horizontal or simple vertical milling chambers, resulting in a limited range of motion between the grinding balls and the glaze within the chamber. Relying solely on the rotation of the equipment limited the probability and force of collisions between the grinding balls and the glaze. This led to low grinding efficiency, often requiring a significant amount of time to complete a single grinding cycle meeting the required fineness, severely impacting production schedules.

[0003] Furthermore, due to the lack of diversity in motion patterns, it is difficult to achieve uniform force on the glaze during the grinding process. Often, some glazes are over-ground while others are under-ground, resulting in inconsistent glaze quality and making it difficult for key indicators such as color, gloss, and adhesion performance of the finished product to reach the ideal state.

[0004] Meanwhile, as the equipment operates continuously for extended periods, the large amount of heat generated cannot be dissipated in time. Excessive heat not only affects the performance of equipment components and shortens the equipment's lifespan, but may also pose safety hazards. Furthermore, the overheated grinding environment alters the physical and chemical properties of the glaze, further reducing its quality. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a ball mill for grinding glazes, thereby solving the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a ball mill for grinding glaze, comprising a ball mill body, a support frame and a motor, the ball mill body having supports at both ends of its exterior, the ball mill body being rotatably mounted between the supports, a motor being mounted at the end of the rear support frame, the motor being connected to the rear end of the ball mill body, an outer shell being provided on the exterior of the ball mill body, a cooling component being provided at the top of the inner part of the outer shell, and a grinding chamber being provided inside the ball mill body, the grinding chamber being inclinedly positioned inside the ball mill body.

[0007] Preferably, the outer shell is fitted over the outside of the ball mill body, and the ball mill body can rotate inside the outer shell.

[0008] Preferably, the cooling assembly includes an inner cavity formed inside the outer shell, a spray plate installed on the inner top wall of the inner cavity, water spray holes opened at the bottom of the spray plate, a water injection pipe fixed on the top of the spray plate, the water injection pipe protruding from the top of the outer shell and communicating with the interior of the spray plate, and a drain pipe installed at the bottom of the outer shell, the top end of the drain pipe communicating with the interior of the inner cavity, and the bottom end of the drain pipe protruding from the bottom of the outer shell.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0010] 1. This utility model provides a ball mill for grinding glaze. Through the inclined design of the grinding chamber, combined with the rotation of the main body of the ball mill, the grinding balls and glaze roll back and forth within the grinding chamber. During the rolling process, the two collide and rub frequently and powerfully, greatly improving the grinding efficiency of the glaze. It can quickly process the glaze to the fineness required by the process and meet the needs of high-efficiency production.

[0011] 2. The ball mill for glaze grinding provided by this utility model has grinding balls and glaze continuously tumbling in the ball milling chamber with varying inclination, interacting with each other in all directions and at multiple angles, so that the glaze particles are uniformly refined and dispersed, effectively avoiding the problem of insufficient or excessive grinding in some areas, and ensuring the consistency and stability of glaze grinding quality.

[0012] 3. The ball mill for glaze grinding provided by this utility model, through a cooling system constructed by connecting a water pipe to the water inlet pipe and a discharge pipe to the outlet pipe, can continuously spray cooling water onto the outer wall of the ball mill body. This promptly removes the heat generated during the operation of the ball mill, ensuring that the equipment is always in a suitable temperature environment, reducing the risk of equipment failure due to overheating, extending the service life of the equipment, and maintaining long-term stable operation.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Combination Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention discloses a ball mill for grinding glaze, comprising a ball mill body 1, a support 3, and a motor 4. The ball mill body 1 is provided with supports 3 at both ends of its exterior, and the ball mill body 1 is rotatably disposed between the supports 3. The motor 4 is installed at the end of the rear support 3 and is connected to the rear end of the ball mill body 1. The ball mill body 1 is provided with an outer shell 5, and a cooling component is provided at the top of the inner part of the outer shell 5. A ball milling chamber 2 is provided inside the ball mill body 1, and the ball milling chamber 2 is inclinedly disposed inside the ball mill body 1.

[0022] The outer casing 5 is fitted onto the outside of the ball mill body 1, and the ball mill body 1 can rotate inside the outer casing 5.

[0023] The cooling assembly includes an inner cavity 51 formed inside the outer shell 5. A spray plate 52 is installed on the inner top wall of the inner cavity 51. A water spray hole 55 is opened at the bottom of the spray plate 52. A water injection pipe 53 is fixed at the top of the spray plate 52. The water injection pipe 53 protrudes from the top of the outer shell 5 and communicates with the interior of the spray plate 52. A drain pipe 54 is installed at the bottom of the outer shell 5. The top end of the drain pipe 54 communicates with the interior of the inner cavity 51, and the bottom end of the drain pipe 54 protrudes from the bottom of the outer shell 5.

[0024] Specifically, the staff put an appropriate amount of grinding balls into the ball mill chamber 2. Then, the glaze to be ground is slowly poured into the ball mill chamber 2.

[0025] Once everything is ready, start motor 4. Motor 4 begins to run, and its powerful output drives the ball mill body 1 to rotate slowly. It is worth mentioning that the ball mill chamber 2 adopts an inclined design. When the ball mill body 1 is in... Figure 2 At the position shown, the grinding chamber 2 is tilted upwards. At this time, under the action of gravity and the initial rotation of the ball mill body 1, the grinding balls and glaze roll orderly towards the rear end inside the grinding chamber 2. They collide and squeeze each other, initially mixing and blending.

[0026] As the main body 1 of the ball mill continues to rotate, when the rotation angle reaches 180°, the state of the grinding chamber 2 changes significantly, changing from tilted upwards to tilted downwards. The grinding balls and glaze material, which originally rolled to the rear end of the grinding chamber 2, are now guided by gravity and begin to roll towards the front end of the grinding chamber 2. During this rolling process, the frequency and force of collisions between the grinding balls and the glaze material further increase, causing the glaze particles to be continuously refined and dispersed, gradually improving the grinding effect. In this way, the grinding chamber 2, under the rotation of the main body 1, continuously changes from tilted upwards to tilted downwards, and then back to tilted upwards. In this cyclical rolling process, the grinding balls and glaze material, in conjunction with the continuous and stable rotation of the main body 1, continuously collide and rub against each other, efficiently performing the grinding process and gradually processing the glaze to the required fineness.

[0027] Regarding the cooling system, a suitable water pipe is connected to the water inlet pipe 53, and a drain pipe is connected to the drain pipe 54. The external water pipe continuously supplies cooling water to the water inlet pipe 53, which then flows into the spray plate 52. Numerous spray holes 55 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the spray plate 52, from which cooling water is sprayed out, forming a fine water curtain that precisely falls on the top of the ball mill body 1. The water flows slowly down the outer wall of the ball mill body 1, from the top all the way to the bottom of the inner cavity 51, effectively absorbing the heat generated by the ball mill body 1 during operation. Finally, the water that has absorbed heat is discharged from the equipment through the drain pipe 54, completing a full cooling cycle. By continuously spraying cooling water onto the outer wall of the ball mill body 1, the ball mill body 1 can be cooled down in a timely and effective manner, ensuring that the ball mill body 1 remains in a suitable temperature environment during long-term, high-intensity operation, guaranteeing stable equipment operation, and extending the equipment's service life.
