Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of separation and recycling technology, specifically to a separation and recycling device for tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the global economy and the continuous advancement of mineral processing technology, the demand for metals such as tantalum, niobium, zirconium, and titanium is constantly increasing. These metals are being used more and more widely in high-tech industries, such as smartphones, electric vehicles, and aerospace. Tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings contain a variety of valuable metallic elements, such as tantalum, niobium, zirconium, and titanium. These elements have important applications in many fields such as electronics, aerospace, chemicals, metallurgy, and building materials. By separating and recycling tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings, the amount of tailings emissions can be reduced, which is beneficial to environmental protection and sustainable development. However, the existing technology relies on manual separation, which has a low degree of automation, high labor intensity, and low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this utility model is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems to a certain extent, and to propose a tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings separation and recovery equipment. The equipment adopts an automated structure to separate and recover tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings, thereby reducing the intensity of manual labor and improving productivity.

[0004] The above-mentioned problems to be solved by this utility model are achieved through the following technical solution: A separation and recovery device for tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings is proposed, comprising a frame, separation cabinets, magnetic rollers, and scrapers. A conveyor belt is mounted on the frame, and a material carrier is mounted on the conveyor belt. A feed pipe is located on the left side of the conveyor belt, and a discharge basket is located on the right side. Multiple separation cabinets are arranged along the conveyor belt's conveying direction, each cabinet covering a section of the conveyor belt. Each separation cabinet contains a magnetic roller, one end of which is connected to a rotary motor mounted on the separation cabinet, and the other end is rotatably mounted on a support base mounted on the separation cabinet. The lower part of the magnetic roller is placed inside the material carrier and in contact with the material. A magnetic source is located inside the magnetic roller and is electrically connected to a power source mounted on the separation cabinet. A mounting base is located on one side of the frame near the magnetic roller, and a scraper is inclinedly mounted on the mounting base, with one end contacting the outer surface of the magnetic roller to scrape it. A recovery basket is located on the other end of the frame near the scraper.

[0005] In some embodiments, the mounting base is provided with multiple support rods, the top of which is close to the bottom of the scraper on the side of the magnetic roller.

[0006] In some embodiments, the scraper is longer than the magnetic roller, and baffles are provided at both ends of the scraper.

[0007] In some embodiments, the magnetic roller is located directly above the conveyor belt and is arranged parallel to the feeding direction of the conveyor belt.

[0008] In some embodiments, the material carrier has an arc-shaped groove inside that is the same shape as the magnetic roller, and the lower end of the magnetic roller is placed in the arc-shaped groove and in contact with the material in the arc-shaped groove.

[0009] In some embodiments, the diameter of the magnetic roller is larger than the diameter of the arcuate groove.

[0010] In some embodiments, the magnetic source is an electromagnet or a permanent magnet.

[0011] The technical solution provided in this application has the following advantages compared with the prior art: This invention uses a feeding pipe to discharge a mixture of tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings into a carrier. The carrier is then moved to a separation cabinet by a conveyor belt. Simultaneously, a magnetic source magnetizes a magnetic roller. The lower part of the magnetic roller inside the separation cabinet is placed within the carrier and in contact with the material. While the tantalum and niobium minerals in the tantalum-niobium tailings are typically non-magnetic, the ilmenite in the zirconium-titanium tailings is magnetic. Magnetic separation causes the zirconium-titanium tailings to adhere to the magnetic roller, and the rotation of the roller separates the tantalum-niobium tailings from the zirconium-titanium tailings. A scraper removes the zirconium-titanium tailings adsorbed on the magnetic roller, which then falls into a recycling basket for unified processing. Meanwhile, the separated tantalum-niobium tailings within the carrier continue to move with the conveyor belt and are poured into a discharge basket for unified processing. This automated structure separates and recycles tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings, reducing manual labor intensity and increasing productivity. Attached Figure Description

[0018] like Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model proposes a separation and recovery device for tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings, including a frame 1, separation cabinets 2, magnetic rollers 3, and scrapers 4. A conveyor belt 5 is mounted on the frame 1, and a material carrier 6 is mounted on the conveyor belt 5. A feed pipe 7 is located on the left side of the conveyor belt 5, and a discharge basket 8 is located on the right side of the conveyor belt 5. Multiple separation cabinets 2 are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 5, each cabinet 2 covering a section of the conveyor belt 5. Each separation cabinet 2 contains a magnetic roller 3, which is located directly above the conveyor belt 5 and parallel to the feeding direction of the conveyor belt 5. One end of the magnetic roller 3 is connected to a rotating plate on the separation cabinet 2. The rotating motor 9 is connected to the drive, and its other end is rotatably mounted on the support base 10 of the separation cabinet 2. The material carrier 6 has an arc-shaped groove with the same shape as the magnetic roller 3 inside. The lower part of the magnetic roller 3 is placed in the arc-shaped groove and contacts the material in the arc-shaped groove. The diameter of the magnetic roller 3 is larger than the diameter of the arc-shaped groove. The magnetic roller 3 has a magnetic source inside, which is electrically connected to the power supply on the separation cabinet 2. The frame 1 has a mounting base 11 on one side of the magnetic roller 3. The scraper 4 is inclined on the mounting base 11, and one end of it contacts the outer surface of the magnetic roller 3. The frame 1 has a recycling basket 12 at the other end of the scraper 4.

[0019] In this embodiment, the pretreated mixture of tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings is uniformly fed into the carrier 6 via the feed pipe 7. The carrier 6 is then moved to the separation tank 2 by the conveyor belt 5. Simultaneously, a magnetic source magnetizes the magnetic roller 3. The lower part of the magnetic roller 3 inside the separation tank 2 is placed inside the carrier 6 and in contact with the material. A rotary motor 9 drives the magnetic roller 3 to rotate. The tantalum and niobium minerals in the tantalum-niobium tailings are typically non-magnetic, while the ilmenite in the zirconium-titanium tailings is magnetic. Therefore, magnetic separation is used to separate the zirconium-titanium tailings. The tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings are adsorbed onto the magnetic roller 3 and separated as the magnetic roller 3 rotates. The magnetic source is an electromagnet or permanent magnet, which generates a strong magnetic field to adsorb the zirconium-titanium tailings. The zirconium-titanium tailings adsorbed on the surface of the magnetic roller 3 are scraped off by the scraper 4 and fall into the recycling basket 12 for unified processing. At the same time, the tantalum-niobium tailings separated in the material carrier 6 continue to move with the conveyor belt 5 and are poured into the unloading basket 8 for unified processing. The automated structure separates and recycles the tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings, reducing the intensity of manual labor and improving productivity.

[0020] It is worth noting that the mixture of tantalum-niobium tailings and zirconium-titanium tailings needs to be properly pretreated before magnetic separation, including but not limited to crushing and grinding, to ensure that the mineral particles reach the appropriate magnetic separation particle size range. In addition, the magnetic field strength and the rotation speed of the magnetic roller 3 are adjusted by the control system to achieve the best magnetic separation effect.

[0021] In another embodiment, such as Figure 3As shown, the mounting base 11 is provided with multiple support rods 13. The top column of the support rod 13 is close to the bottom of the scraper 4 on the side of the magnetic roller 3. The support rod 13 supports the end of the scraper 4, reducing the stress generated by the magnetic roller 3 on the scraper 4 when the scraper 4 is scraping. The scraper 4 is longer than the magnetic roller 3 to ensure that the entire outer surface of the magnetic roller 3 can be scraped. At the same time, in order to prevent the zirconium-titanium tailings after scraping from falling from both sides of the scraper 4, baffles 14 are provided at both ends of the scraper 4.

[0022] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of the specification and drawings of this utility model, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
