Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of mineral processing, relates to feeding control of large semi-autogenous grinding equipment, and particularly relates to a control method for preventing granularity segregation of large semi-autogenous grinding feeding.
Background
When the ore blasted in a stope is transported to a bin through a bin feeding belt, a typical particle size segregation cone is formed due to the gravity separation effect of particles, wherein the center area is fine particles (< 150 mm), the height of blanking points is high, the inertia operation of the fine particles is small, the natural repose angle is small, fine particles and low-porosity accumulation are formed, and the edge area is coarse particles (> 200 mm) and roll to the edge of a pile due to inertia effect, so that a high-porosity coarse particle endless belt is formed. The natural segregation causes the standard deviation of the initial ore feeding granularity to be +/-40 mm under the traditional single-center blanking port or multi-port random blanking mode, and the standard deviation is far beyond the ideal ore feeding uniformity requirement of semi-self-grinding (standard deviation is less than or equal to +/-15 mm). The prior art has the following remarkable problems:
1. The granularity segregation is serious, namely, the granularity segregation formed by natural accumulation makes the ore granularity of different feed openings have larger difference, and the uniformity of the ore feeding granularity is difficult to ensure.
2. The manual intervention is highly dependent, the granularity condition of each blanking opening needs to be detected through manual observation or an instrument, and then manual intervention adjustment is carried out, so that the randomness of the mode is high, the discharging quantity and granularity distribution cannot be accurately controlled in real time, the ore blocking degree is high and low, and the semi-self-grinding power is unstable.
3. The shape of the material pile is difficult to maintain, the material pile in the storage bin cannot maintain ideal cone shape, and large ores enter low-lying parts after the materials are fed in a stope, so that the granularity segregation is further increased.
4. The production efficiency and the equipment safety are affected, the feeding is uneven, the semi-autogenous grinding power is increased rapidly when the granularity is coarse, the processing amount is required to be reduced, the yield is affected, if the processing is not performed in time, the belly expansion phenomenon is even caused, the equipment is damaged, the unit consumption of the steel balls is increased, and the production cost is increased.
Currently, the closest prior art documents include:
1. Patent literature, a semi-autogenous mill feed system, suggests a conventional configuration of a semi-autogenous mill feed system, but does not involve systematic control of bin structure optimization and particle size segregation.
2. Journal literature on research on the influence of feed particle size distribution on grinding efficiency in a semi-autogenous grinding process, wherein the influence of feed particle size segregation on the semi-autogenous grinding efficiency is analyzed, but a specific control method is not proposed.
