[0019] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0020] The hydraulic extraction and slurry collection tank device of this utility model embodiment will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The hydraulic slurry collection tank device of this utility model includes a slurry collection box 1, a screening component 2, and a gate component 3.

[0022] The slurry collection box 1 can be made of building materials or constructed using steel plates and external supports. The slurry collection box 1 has an inlet and an outlet. The inlet is located on one side of the slurry collection box 1, covering most of that side and providing a sufficiently large inlet to increase the feeding speed. Similarly, the outlet can be located at the bottom of the slurry collection box 1, and its opening size can be matched with subsequent mineral processing equipment to ensure efficient discharge. A screening component 2 is located at the inlet to prevent large-diameter materials from entering the slurry collection box 1; a gate component 3 is located on one side of the slurry collection box 1 and is used to open the gate component 3 to divert the slurry when the flow rate at the inlet is high.

[0023] This embodiment of the hydraulic slurry collection tank device can perform preliminary filtration of the raw ore slurry through the screening component 2 and the slurry collection box 1, thereby enabling the discharge port of the slurry collection box 1 to connect with the subsequent mineral processing equipment, optimizing the efficiency and effect of the subsequent mineral processing equipment, and reducing the mineral processing load. The gate component 3 of this embodiment can divert the slurry when the incoming volume is too large, preventing the raw ore slurry from impacting the subsequent mineral processing equipment and ensuring that the amount of slurry delivered to the mineral processing equipment matches its processing capacity.

[0024] In application, after the raw slurry reaches the front of the slurry collection box 1, the impurities in the raw slurry are screened by the screening component 2. Then the slurry and small particles can be collected and enter the slurry collection box 1. If the upstream raw slurry volume is too large (such as a sudden rainstorm), the flood can be discharged by the side gate component 3 to divert the flow and prevent the slurry overflow in the slurry collection box 1 from causing damage to the downstream slurry conveying device and other equipment.

[0025] This embodiment of the invention uses a screening component 2 to block large-diameter impurities, preventing accumulation and blockage within the slurry collection tank 1, thus reducing the maintenance frequency and workload of the slurry collection tank 1. Even if there are sediments inside the slurry collection tank 1, they can be easily washed away with high-pressure water, improving operational convenience. This ensures continuous and efficient operation of the entire system without requiring shutdown or reverse cleaning. This embodiment can improve the continuous slurry conveying time and production efficiency.

[0026] In some embodiments, the slurry collection tank 1 includes a tank body 11 and a platform 12 located on top of the tank body 11, with a circumferential fence 13 provided on the platform 12. By providing the platform 12, it is convenient for staff to observe and maintain the condition inside the tank, and the fence 13 can improve safety performance and prevent staff or other equipment from falling into the tank.

[0027] In some embodiments, the screening component 2 includes a base plate 21 and a screen 22. One side of the base plate 21 is connected to the bottom of the feed inlet, and the base plate 21 extends from the feed inlet away from the slurry collection box 1. The screen 22 is disposed circumferentially above the base plate 21. The connection between the base plate 21 and the feed inlet allows more slurry from the circumference of the base plate 21 to converge at the feed inlet, and allows for filtration through the circumferential screen 22, increasing the flow rate of the slurry flowing into the feed inlet and reducing the risk of clogging. In this embodiment, multiple screens 22 are arranged in a rectangular pattern on the base plate 21, resulting in a three-dimensional feeding and filtration system at the feed inlet, improving practicality.

[0028] Furthermore, a portion of the screen 22 is positioned opposite to and covers the feed inlet. This embodiment enables multi-stage filtration. Primary filtration can be performed using the screen 22, which is not directly opposite the feed inlet, while secondary filtration is performed using the screen 22 covering the feed inlet. Even if the slurry feed is too large and some slurry does not directly overflow the bottom plate 21 of the screening component 2, it can still be filtered through the screen 22 covering the feed inlet, making it highly practical.

[0029] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the bottom plate 21 has a settling tank, and a screen 22 is provided at the top of the settling tank. The circumferential direction of the screen 22 at the top of the settling tank is connected to the screen 22 located circumferentially on the bottom plate 21. It can be understood that the screen 22 in this embodiment includes a bottom screen 221 and four side screens 222 located circumferentially on the screen 22. There can be a certain distance between the bottom screen 221 and the bottom surface of the settling tank to prevent large-diameter materials entering the middle of the screen 22 from settling at the bottom of the settling tank.

[0030] This embodiment improves the flow of slurry at the feed inlet by setting the screen 22, reduces the risk of clogging, reduces the cleaning frequency, and facilitates cleaning.

[0031] In this embodiment, the screen 22 is integrally formed, and the size of the impurities filtered by the screen 22 is adjusted by controlling the mesh area of ​​the screen 22. Alternatively, the screen 22 can be constructed from multiple rods arranged at intervals, such as multiple vertical rods arranged side by side, and the size of the impurities filtered can be adjusted by controlling the spacing between adjacent vertical rods.

[0032] In some embodiments, the base plate 21 is inclined, with the end of the base plate 21 closer to the feed inlet being lower than the end of the base plate 21 farther from the feed inlet. The inclined base plate 21 allows the slurry to flow towards the feed inlet under gravity, reducing the frequency of cleaning the base plate 21. High-pressure water washing can achieve rapid cleaning, reducing labor intensity.

[0033] Furthermore, the angle between the inner bottom surface of the base plate 21 and the horizontal plane is between 5 and 45 degrees. For example, the angle can be 5, 10, 15, 30, 33, or 45 degrees. If the angle is too small, the slurry flow rate will be slow, and it will easily deposit on the base plate 21. If the angle is too large, the dimension in the height direction will be too large, affecting the feed rate and resulting in poor practicality in terms of shape and volume.

[0034] In some embodiments, the gate component 3 includes a retaining wall 31 and a gate body 32. The retaining wall 31 is connected to the outer wall of the slurry collection tank 1, and an opening is provided on the retaining wall 31. The gate body 32 is located at the opening. The retaining wall 31 can be connected to the outer wall of the slurry collection tank 1 and can be made of the same material, such as reinforced concrete, or it can be constructed using steel plates and steel structures. The retaining wall 31 allows the slurry to converge towards the inlet, and the gate body 32 can divert the flow when opened, preventing excessive slurry from overflowing into the slurry collection tank 1 and causing damage to subsequent equipment.

[0035] In some embodiments, the retaining wall 31 is provided with a lifting component 33, which is used to drive the door 32 to rise or fall to open or close the opening. The lifting component 33 can be a screw jack, and the door 32 can be engaged within the retaining wall 31 through a groove provided on the retaining wall 31. It is convenient to operate, practical, and has good stability.

[0036] In some embodiments, the hydraulic slurry collection tank device of this utility model further includes a flushing component, which is disposed on the upper part of the slurry collection tank 1 and / or the upper part of the screening component 2, and is used to flush the sediment on the slurry collection tank 1 and / or the screening component 2.

[0037] Furthermore, the flushing component includes multiple water guns 4, some of which are mounted on the slurry collection tank 1, and others are mounted on the screening component 2; the water guns 4 are oscillating relative to the slurry collection tank 1 or the screening component 2. The flushing component can be remotely controlled by a control system or manually controlled by an operator.

[0038] The high-pressure water gun 4 in the direction of the slurry collection box 1 can automatically and irregularly stir the slurry in the slurry collection box 1 to avoid the precipitation of chromium iron in the slurry and block the discharge port, thereby improving the discharge efficiency and reducing the maintenance frequency.

[0039] During operation, raw ore slurry is fed upstream, and then the raw ore slurry is screened to remove impurities and then collected in a slurry collection tank. High-pressure water guns are used to stir the slurry periodically to prevent solid particles in the slurry from settling. The slurry is then transported to the next process stage through a slurry conveying device behind the slurry collection tank.

[0040] The hydraulic slurry collection tank device of this utility model embodiment was installed at a mine site, put into use and tested (with occasional high-pressure water gun cleaning and stirring). It has achieved the design purpose, namely, to screen impurities, collect slurry, and stir slurry from incoming raw ore slurry, thereby improving the efficiency of continuous and stable slurry transportation and production. During long-term operation, there is no sediment in the slurry collection tank, which can ensure the long-term stable operation of the entire system.

[0041] Compared to related technologies, the equipment in those technologies requires frequent shutdowns to clean impurities, and the cleaning of solid particles after sedimentation is difficult, consuming a lot of manpower and resources, and requiring shutdowns and reverse cleaning. This embodiment, after installing and using the slurry collection box, screening components, and flushing components, reduces impurities in the slurry, increases the continuous slurry conveying time, and improves production efficiency.
