CYANID-BARREL.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 3, 1910.
Application filed December 17, 1909. Serial No. 533,707.
To all 'whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, BENJAMIN O. WEBB, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Cyanid-Bar rels, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to apparatus for treating gold, silver, copper and other ores by chemical processes, whereby the metals are dissolved in a cyanid or other solution and thus removed from the large body of ore in which they occur. Heretofore a tank apparatus has been utilized for the carrying on of this process, the tanks being open and occasioning a loss of the solution by evaporation to the atmosphere. This has greatly increased the cost of leaching and has been a disadvantage in many ways.
It is the object of my invention to provide an apparatus which overcomes all of the above named difficulties and, in addition, which has other advantages inducing celerity of the manipulation and eiiiciency of leaching.
The invention consists in an inclosed and revoluble tank or barrel, in which the liquid and ore may be placed. This barrel is equipped for being tightly closed after the materials have been introduced and with means for forcing free oxygen or other oxidizing agents into the barrel under pressure. lhen the barrel is rotated the oxidizing agent, the cyanid solution and the ore are all thoroughly agitated, so that the metals are quickly dissolved in the solution. lVhen this is done, pressure, water or air, is forced into the barrel above the liquid, the liquid being forced downwardly through a perforated floor and out of the barrel at its lowermost portion. Means are provided to quickly wash out the barrel after the operation is completed. The combination is thus essentially that of a cyanid barrel adapted to be operated under pressure and equipped with a rapid washing means, and a pressure filter, all in one piece of apparatus. The following description will deal with the machine in this particular relation.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a sectional elevation of my improved machine. Fig. 2 is a cross section of the barrel taken on line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is an end elevation of the same. Fig. 4 is a detail section of my improved washing means.
In the drawings 5 designates pedestals of any desired character, these pedestals being both supplied with bearings 6 of an approved design on their upper ends. Bearings 6 revolubly carry trunnions 7 these trunnions having preferably integral flanges 8 which are secured to wooden heads 9 of the barrel. Heads 9 are surrounded by wooden staves 10 which form the lateral walls of the barrel and are securely held by hoops 11 so that the whole structure is liquid tight. The heads are mortised into the staves as at 12, a liquid tight joint being thus effected. The whole structure is compressed longitudinally by a bolt 13 which passes through longitudinal bores 14 in trunnions 7 passing through the barrel and heads 9, and having nuts 15 on its ends so that any desired degree of tension may be placed thereon. This bolt holds the heads tightly against the inner shoulder of the mort-ises in the staves and prevents the structure from loosening and losing its rigidity. This construction is one of the structural features of my invention.
On one of the trunnions 7 is mounted a gear 16, and with this gear a small driving pinion 17 meshes. Pinion 17 is mounted on a driving'shaft 18 which may be driven in any desired manner to rotate the barrel at a suitable speed. This speed is usually low, the agitation being better effected at low than at high speed.
At a point in the lateral walls of the barrel which is uppermost when the barrel is at rest, there is cut an opening, or manhole, 20 of suitable size for the insertion and withdrawal of ore. This opening is closed by an ordinary manhole cover 21 secured in position by clamping device 22 so as to eiiciently close the opening against the escape of any liquid or gases. The upper side of the barrel is also provided with a pop valve 23 which will relieve any excessive gas pressure generated during action and prevent the barrel being injured thereby. A pressure gage 53 is also provided so that the pressure may be observed, and, in case the pop valve fails to operate automatically at the proper pressure, the machine can be stopped and the valve opened manually to relieve the excess pressure. It will be understood that during the operation considerable gas is generated and the confinement of this gas causes considerable pressure. As the gas aids in the dissolving action 1t is desirable to retain as much as possible in the barrel Without endangering its integrity.
On the inside of the barrel are spaced projecting knobs these knobsV being-secured to ste-.ves 10 in any suitable manner. Preferably, the knobs are made of Wood and are fastened to the ste-ves by lag screws. These knobs pass through the solution and crushed materials when the barrel is rotated and stir and agitato so that every portion of the crust ls come into intimate contact f Ation and allor.v the values to o loro quickly removed.
Across the bottom of the barrel is cor.- structed a floor 26, supported on beams 27 and having perforations 28 through which the liquid in the barrel may be forced by pressure introduced above. The floor is secured by cleats 56. Beams 27 are provided With notches 50 on their under sides at the bottom of the barrel so that an open passage is provided for the clear liquid liltered from the upper part of the barrel. A stop cock 28 controls the discharge from the bottom of the barrel, allowing the liquid to be drawn ofie when desired. A beveled trough 5l leads slopingly from the ends of the barrel to the center Where stop cock 28 is located so that all the liquid may be rapidly Withdrawn.
On each side of the barrel a means is provided for introducing liquids and gases to the upper part of the barrel. This means is comprised in nipples 29 leading through the Walls of the barrel on each side and at each end, and having on their outer ends valves 30. By this means the necessary liquids and gases may be introduced, under pressure if desired, after the ores have been introduced through the manhole. The Washing of the barrel is also accomplished through these nipples, as vrill be hereinafter explained.
1n operation, the ores and liquids are introduced to the barrel and the manhole closed. The desired gas is then introduced through valves 30, some pressure being used and the retained in the barrel under pressure. The barrel is then rotated for the desired length of time and the ores, liquid and gas are agitated by the projecting knobs on the inside of the barrel and are intermingled with each other so that the metals are rapidly dissolved by the liquids. After this has been suficiently accomplished the barrel is stopped in its upright position and the liquids allowed to settle down through perforated floor 26 into the loiver portion of the barrel. They are then drawn off through stop cocks 2S. During this operation pressure is applied, if
necessary, to the upper surface of the liquid and ores in the upper part of the barrel by forcing air or Water into the barrel through one or more of valves 30. This hastens the discharge of the solution through the pern forated iilter floor. The barrel is then turned over and the solid material removed through the manhole, the interior of the barrel being Washed out clean through the manhole by Water introduced through valves 30.
@n the inner ends of nipples 29 are mounted coneshaped dei'iectors 52, there being an opening between the end of the nipple and e defectcr for the passage of Water. The )s are mounted on studs which lre screved into Webs inside the nipples. This construction may be varied if occasion demands, the essential feature being the supporting of the cone at the illustrated position. By means of the deflector the water for Washing is partly turned in the direction indicated by the arrows so that it is forced directly against and along the interior lateral surface of the barrel and lter bottom. The surfaces are thoroughly Washed and cleansed, t-he Washings passing out through the manhole When the barrel is turned over.
1t will be seen that my invention consists of a means to facilitate the extraction of values by several distinct means and aids. First, the barrel is inclosed and the gases generated during the action prevented from escaping, unless they should reach such a pressure as to endanger the integrity of the barrel, When they are relieved by the pop valve. Second, the necessary oxygen or oxidizing agents are added in compressed form to aid e 'ciently in dissolving the metals. Third, the crushed materials and the clear solution are separated While still in the barrel Without the necessity of being removed to another machine. Fourth, there is provided an eiiicient and quickly acting means for cleansing the barrel for t-he insertion of the next charge.
