[0038] Please see Figures 1 to 9 This embodiment provides a roller mill, which includes a roller 1, a water tank 2, and a liquid delivery pipe 3. The roller 1 has an internal cavity 11. The water tank 2 is located on one side of the roller 1 along its axial direction. The roller 1 is rotatably connected to the water tank 2 via a first rotating shaft 12, the end of which extends into the water tank 2. Exemplarily, a rotating bearing (not shown in the figure) is fitted around the outer circumference of the first rotating shaft 12, and the rotating bearing is installed between the first rotating shaft 12 and the water tank 2. Furthermore, the first rotating shaft 12 and the roller 1 share a return liquid hole 13, which extends along the axis of the roller 1. Both ends of the return liquid hole 13 communicate with the cavity 11 and the water tank 2, respectively. The water tank 2 has a first liquid outlet 21 located at the bottom of the water tank 2.

[0039] Understandably, the end of roller 1 furthest from the first rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to other structures of the roller mill via the second rotating shaft 14.

[0040] The liquid delivery pipe 3 is installed inside the water tank 2. The water tank 2 is provided with a liquid inlet channel 22. The downstream side of the liquid inlet channel 22 is connected to the liquid delivery pipe 3. The liquid delivery pipe 3 passes through the liquid return hole 13 and extends into the cavity 11. The diameter of the liquid return hole 13 is larger than the diameter of the liquid delivery pipe 3. Thus, a liquid return channel is formed between the hole wall of the liquid return hole 13 and the liquid delivery pipe 3. The liquid return channel connects the cavity 11 and the water tank 2.

[0041] Therefore, in this embodiment, the roller mill is equipped with a water tank 2, which has a liquid inlet channel 22. The liquid inlet channel 22 is connected to the cavity 11 inside the roller 1 through the liquid delivery pipe 3, thereby enabling the delivery of low-temperature liquid into the roller 1 and completing heat exchange with the roller 1, thus achieving temperature control of the roller 1. Moreover, since a return liquid channel is formed between the liquid delivery pipe 3 and the first rotating shaft 12, when the liquid inside the roller 1 accumulates to a height above the return liquid hole 13, the liquid inside the roller 1 can flow back into the water tank 2 through the return liquid channel and flow out through the first liquid outlet 21 at the bottom of the water tank 2, thereby forming a circulation loop for the low-temperature liquid.

[0042] As can be seen from the above, by setting the first liquid outlet 21 at the bottom of the water tank 2 in this embodiment, the liquid flowing back into the water tank 2 can be automatically discharged from the first liquid outlet 21 by gravity. Thus, in this embodiment, the liquid transported to the inside of the roller 1 can be automatically recovered without the need for a water pump or other suction structure.

[0043] Specifically, the bottom of the water tank 2 is provided with a mounting base 25, and the mounting base 25 is provided with a first liquid outlet channel 251, which is connected to the first liquid outlet 21. In addition, the mounting base 25 is provided with a first liquid outlet connector 254, which is connected to the downstream end of the first liquid outlet channel 251 and is used to connect to the first return pipe 41. The liquid flowing out of the first liquid outlet 21 can flow into the first return pipe 41 through the first liquid outlet channel 251 and thus be recovered.

[0044] It is understandable that the liquid flowing out of the first outlet 21, after being cooled, will be sent back into the roller 1 through the inlet channel 22, thereby achieving circulating cooling. Specifically, the upstream side of the inlet channel 22 and the first outlet 21 are both connected to the liquid source 4, which is a refrigerator, so that it can supply low-temperature liquid to the inlet channel 22. Moreover, the liquid flowing out of the first outlet 21 can return to the liquid source 4, which can cool it down and supply it back to the inlet channel 22 through the inlet pipe 43, thus forming a circulating loop for the low-temperature liquid.

[0045] As for the liquid inside the roller 1, during the operation of the roller mill, as the roller 1 rotates, the liquid rotates synchronously inside the roller 1, thereby effectively cooling the roller 1.

[0046] As described above, this embodiment provides a cavity 11 inside the roller 1 and a water tank 2 and a liquid delivery pipe 3 to circulate and deliver low-temperature liquid into the roller 1, thereby achieving heat exchange in the roller 1 and controlling the temperature of the roller 1 to prevent the material from sticking and burning on the surface of the roller 1, thus ensuring that the grinding effect is not affected.

[0047] It is understood that the other structures included in the roller mill are all existing technologies, therefore, this embodiment will not elaborate on them.

[0048] Additionally, it should be noted that in other alternative embodiments, the water tank 2 and the liquid delivery pipe 3 can also be used to circulate and deliver high-temperature liquid into the roller 1, thereby heating the liquid slurry or fluid material before grinding to reduce the viscosity of the liquid slurry or fluid material, thus preventing the grinding and dispersing effect of the roller mill from decreasing due to excessive viscosity of the liquid slurry or fluid material.

[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cavity 11 extends along the axial direction of the roller 1, thereby increasing the contact area between the cryogenic liquid and the roller 1, and thus ensuring that the liquid input into the roller 1 can cool the roller 1 more fully.

[0050] Moreover, in this embodiment, the return hole 13 is coaxially arranged with the roller 1, and the diameter of the cavity 11 is larger than the diameter of the return hole 13, so that the cryogenic liquid flowing into the cavity 11 can form a cryogenic liquid pool inside the roller 1. When the cryogenic liquid pool overflows the return channel, the liquid will flow back to the water tank 2 through the return channel. Thus, the cryogenic liquid can cool the roller 1 more fully.

[0051] In addition, by way of example, the roller mill in this embodiment is a three-roll mill, that is, the roller mill has three rollers 1 arranged in parallel, and each roller 1 is provided with a liquid delivery pipe 3. The liquid inlet channel 22 is connected to the three liquid delivery pipes 3, so as to synchronously deliver low temperature liquid into the three rollers 1, thereby realizing synchronous cooling of the three rollers 1, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency and further effectively preventing the material from sticking and burning on the surface of the rollers 1.

[0052] Specifically, the liquid inlet channel 22 includes a first flow channel 221 and a second flow channel 222. The upstream end of the first flow channel 221 forms a liquid inlet 23, and the downstream end of the first flow channel 221 is connected to the second flow channel 222. The second flow channel 222 extends along the arrangement direction of the three rollers 1, and the three liquid delivery pipes 3 are all connected to the second flow channel 222. That is, in this embodiment, the three liquid delivery pipes 3 are connected in parallel on the second flow channel 222, thereby realizing the synchronous delivery of cryogenic liquid to the interior of the three rollers 1.

[0053] Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the roller mill can also be a four-roll mill or other multi-roll mill. Accordingly, all rollers 1 are provided with liquid delivery pipes 3. All liquid delivery pipes 3 of the roller mill are connected in parallel on the second flow channel 222. This embodiment does not impose a specific limitation on the number of rollers 1 included in the roller mill.

[0054] Based on the above, in this embodiment, an inlet connector 26 is installed on the outer wall of the water tank 2. The inlet connector 26 is connected to the inlet channel 22. The inlet connector 26 is equipped with a control valve 261. The control valve 261 is configured to control the flow rate of the liquid flowing along the inlet connector 26, so as to adjust the flow rate of the low-temperature liquid in the inlet channel 22, thereby adjusting the flow rate of the low-temperature liquid inside the roller 1, thereby achieving precise control of the temperature of the roller 1.

[0055] Moreover, this embodiment can flexibly change the supply rate of cryogenic liquid by adjusting the opening degree of control valve 261, thereby adapting to different grinding requirements and material characteristics, and ensuring the stability and efficiency of the grinding process.

[0056] As described above, a first sealing ring 262 is formed between the liquid inlet connector 26 and the water tank 2. The first sealing ring 262 surrounds the outer periphery of the connection between the liquid inlet connector 26 and the liquid inlet channel 22 to prevent the low-temperature liquid from leaking from the gap between the liquid inlet connector 26 and the water tank 2. This ensures that the low-temperature liquid can be stably and continuously supplied into the liquid inlet channel 22 and further transported into the roller 1, thereby achieving precise temperature control of the roller 1.

[0057] Furthermore, the water tank 2 includes a detachably connected first housing 27 and a second housing 28, which facilitates cleaning and maintenance of the interior of the water tank 2, as well as inspection and replacement of internal components. The liquid inlet channel 22 and the liquid inlet 23 are located on the first housing 27, while the first liquid outlet 21 is located on the second housing 28.

[0058] Furthermore, a second sealing ring 271 is provided between the first housing 27 and the second housing 28 to press against each other. The provision of the second sealing ring 271 improves the sealing performance of the water tank 2 to prevent the liquid flowing back into the water tank 2 from leaking from the gap between the first housing 27 and the second housing 28, thereby ensuring that the roller mill can operate normally.

[0059] For example, in this embodiment, the first housing 27 and the second housing 28 are bolted together. Of course, in other optional embodiments, the first housing 27 and the second housing 28 may also be connected by snap-fit ​​or other detachable connection methods. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0060] Furthermore, it should be noted that when the pipe downstream of the first outlet 21 is blocked, the liquid flowing back into the water tank 2 cannot be discharged in time, leading to liquid accumulation inside the water tank 2 and affecting the normal operation of the roller mill. Therefore, this embodiment also provides a second outlet 24 inside the water tank 2, which is also located on the second housing 28 and positioned above the first outlet 21. Thus, when the pipe downstream of the first outlet 21 is blocked, the liquid accumulated in the water tank 2 can be discharged promptly through the second outlet 24, preventing excessive liquid accumulation inside the water tank 2 from affecting the backflow of liquid from the roller 1 into the water tank 2, thereby further ensuring the stable operation of the roller mill.

[0061] Understandably, the second outlet 24 is also connected to the liquid source 4. Specifically, the water tank 2 is provided with a third flow channel 29. The third flow channel 29 is located on the second shell 28. The mounting base 25 is also provided with a second outlet channel 252. The upstream end of the third flow channel 29 forms the second outlet 24, and the downstream end of the third flow channel 29 is connected to the second outlet channel 252. Thus, the second outlet channel 252 is connected to the second outlet 24. In addition, the mounting base 25 is also provided with a second outlet connector 255. The second outlet connector 255 is connected to the downstream end of the second outlet channel 252 and is used to connect to the second return pipe 42. The liquid flowing out of the second outlet 24 can flow into the second return pipe 42 through the second outlet channel 252 and be recovered to the liquid source 4.

[0062] Based on the above, a temperature sensor 253 is provided in the first liquid outlet channel 251. The temperature sensor 253 is used to monitor the temperature of the liquid flowing out from the first liquid outlet 21 in real time, and adjust the temperature of the low-temperature liquid supplied from the liquid source 4 to the liquid inlet channel 22 accordingly, so as to ensure accurate temperature control of the roller 1.

[0063] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
