Definitions
- the invention relates to a device according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and a method according to the preamble of patent claim 14.
- the DWP cylinder stands for cylinder and the DSM cyclone stands for cyclones and the washing drum for a sink-swim separating device, whereby the values given apply to the processing of a grain fraction of 3 to 12 mm with cylinder and cyclone and of coarse coal with the washing drum.
- the values for the preparation of the grain fraction 3 to 12 mm with the washing drum would be significantly worse.
- the key figure according to Terra E ⁇ which was determined from the division curve according to Tromp, was chosen as a measure of the selectivity. E ⁇ values of 0.04 for cylinders and cyclones are more theoretical targets that can hardly be achieved.
- Devices and methods described at the outset are also known from DE 968 121, the device additionally having a second pair of inlet and outlet for the liquid below the liquid level.
- the lower liquid flow is so strong that it drives heavy goods into the region of the scoop blades arranged laterally on the end face of the drum for the sinking of heavy goods discharge and acts as a transport flow for heavy goods.
- Floating material adhering to the heavy material can be discharged with the sinking material, as a result of which the discharge decreases.
- the invention is based on the technical problem of developing a device with which mineral raw materials, in particular coal of small-grain fractions, can be separated according to the density of undesired accompanying constituents, and with which high selectivity and performance can be achieved with low specific energy consumption and equipment throughput, and to propose a method with which this task can be solved.
- This object is achieved by a device with the features of claim 1 and a method with the features of claim 14.
- the deflection barriers proposed in a particular embodiment cause the floating material flowing on the surface to be immersed in the heavy turbidity bath, as a result of which the grains perform a movement relative to the heavy turbidity and are thereby separated from any particles of sediment still adhering or enclosed, so that they can then float again in various forms
- the rear deflection barrier in the direction of flow has the advantage that it divides the floating material layer and reduces the thickness of the floating material layer, as a result of which the heavy material is freed from the surrounding floating material and can sink unhindered.
- the course of the lower edge of the deflection barrier parallel to and just below the liquid level (s) has the advantage that the deflection of the heavy turbidity flow takes place in a way that does not disturb the uniform and essentially laminar flow.
- the plate has the rear
- Deflection barrier Shafts arranged parallel to each other in the direction of flow on, so that at the bottom of the wave profile only small floating material deposits are formed which, with their small surface area, only lead to minimal influencing and braking of the flow.
- the shafts can have both a rounded and a V-shaped profile.
- the height of the arrangement of the rear deflection barrier is advantageously set empirically so that a desired proportion of the floating material is gripped by the deflection barrier and pressed down into the bath.
- a useful control variable for the portion to be recorded is the selectivity of the divorced goods, which should be determined appropriately at the overflow.
- the upper feed line for the heavy slurry extends over the entire bath width. This is an essential prerequisite for the formation of a uniform flow over the entire width of the bath.
- This can be designed particularly advantageously if the inlet device enables the flow profile to be controlled over its width. This is possible, for example, by means of an inlet device which consists of a container which extends over the bath width and has at least one inlet opening and a plurality of uniformly spaced openings towards the separating container, the cross-section of which can be deliberately reduced from the inside.
- the device for the task of the raw material to be separated has a chute inclined towards the separating container with a plate arranged on the bottom made of a longitudinally corrugated profile material, the end of which is arranged at an adjustable distance above the liquid bath.
- the slope of the chute and the Arranging their end above the liquid bath causes the raw material to be fed onto and immersed in the liquid bath at a speed adjustable by the inclination.
- the undulating design of the chute floor leads to a reduction in the frictional resistance and thus the braking effect of the floor covering. Spraying the feed material with water supports the discharge of the raw material from the chute and dilutes the heavy sludge in the area of the raw material feed, thereby promoting the sinking of the heavy goods components.
- the first deflecting barrier is arranged so that it lies behind the throwing parabola of the feed material so that it does not collide with the deflecting barrier, which would lead to a reduction in the feed speed and thus the immersion depth of the raw material in the gravure bath.
- the even distribution of a large number of bags of sinking material over the circumference of the drum shell means that the material to be deposited is distributed accordingly over the different bags of sinking material and the bags are not filled unevenly and excessively.
- the liquid-permeable design of the walls of the sinking material pockets in connection with the only slight filling of the pockets with the material to be sacked means that when a sinking material pocket is lifted out of the liquid bath, no liquid is skimmed off and the liquid level is not greatly influenced by the small displacement volume of the pocket contents.
- the formation of two horizontal liquid flows has the advantage that the float is conveyed to the overflow with the upper liquid flow and the sinkage is caught by the flow at two different bath heights and moved relative to the heavy turbidity, as a result of which the separated heavy goods sink and adhering floats are released and float can.
- the flow diversion intensifies the detection of heavy goods from the flow.
- the application of the raw material at high speed to the liquid bath and the resulting deep Immersion of the sediment parts favors the separation of the heavy material parts from adhering floating material grains, which is also increased by spraying the raw material with water and the resulting dilution of the heavy sludge in the area of the raw material feed.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a partially sectioned sink-swimming separating device
- FIG. 2 shows the front view of a sectioned device according to FIG. 1 in operation.
- a partially sectioned sink-float cutting device is shown in perspective.
- the drum 2 is rotatably arranged in the trough-shaped separating container 1.
- the drum is driven by four height-adjustable wheels (not shown) with the help of a pinion (also not shown) which engages in a centrally arranged pinion in the ring gear.
- the sinking material pockets 3 distributed over the inner circumference of the drum shell, the walls of which are designed to be liquid-permeable, can be clearly seen.
- the sinking material discharged into the sinking material pockets when the sinking material pockets are turned into an upper position, falls down by gravity onto a sinking material chute 4, through which the material to be deposited is brought out of the separating container.
- cover plates 5 are arranged in the upper region.
- the raw material to be separated is fed via the feed chute 6, which has a wavy bottom 7.
- the front deflection barrier 8, which in the exemplary embodiment shown has the shape of an angled plate, and the rear deflection barrier 9, which consists of a corrugated plate arranged transversely to the direction of flow, which can be seen like that, are clearly visible front deflection barrier extends over the entire width of the bathroom.
- the upper sludge inlet 10 and the overflow weir 13 located opposite one another at the same height can be clearly seen.
- the lower slurry inlet 11 and, opposite, the outlet opening 12 of the lower slurry outlet can be seen just above the sediment pockets 3.
- the cloudy bath limiting plate 14 is shown, to which one end of the rear deflection barrier 9 is attached.
- Fig. 2 the front view of a cut device is shown in operation. From the right over the feed chute 6 with the corrugated floor 7, the raw material is fed through the inclination of the chute 6 at high speed as quickly as possible onto the gravity bath so that it dips into the bath. Approximately at the level of the turbid bath, fresh pulp is fed in on the right-hand side via the upper pulp inlet 10, while the overflow weir 13 is arranged at the same height, via which the horizontal flow of floating material is discharged, with corresponding amounts of turbidity also flowing off. While the proportion of heavy goods sinks down through the cloudy bath, the floating goods are conveyed to the overflow weir by the horizontal heavy turbid flow.
- the turbid flow is deflected by the front deflecting barrier immersed in the turbid bath and by the rear deflecting barrier 9 arranged approximately in the middle between inlet 10 and overflow weir 13.
- the deflection of the turbid stream pushes the floating parts of the floating material downwards into the bath, which intensifies the separation of the sinking material from adhering floating material grains and has an overall favorable effect on the separating effect.
- the sinking heavy material falls into the sinking material pockets 3 distributed over the circumference and is conveyed and discharged by the rotation of the drum. After a corresponding rotation of the drum, the sinking material falls onto the sinking chute 4, via which the sinking material is discharged from the cutting device.
