Ore pulp concentration meter based on buoyancy measurement principle
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of surveying instrument of detection material concentration, specifically, relate to a kind of ore pulp concentration meter based on buoyancy measurement principle.
Background technology
In the ore dressing industry, when ore was crushed to a certain degree, concentration and granularity had great influence to the economy of producing.Pulp density is important parameter in the ore-dressing technique production run.Ore-dressing technique has concentration kettle method, oven dry weight method, differential pressure method, gamma-rays absorption process to the classic method of the concentration detection employing of ore pulp both at home and abroad.Preceding two kinds of methods detect only for hand sampling, and human factor is many, and it is big to detect error; Two kinds of backs are higher to the ore pulp conditional request that detects, and bubble in the ore pulp or impurity all will cause bigger influence to testing result.
Under the constant situation of ore proportion, pulp density and pulp density have the funtcional relationship of monodrome, at present in Automatic Measurement Technique, all are that the density of measuring ore pulp replaces pulp density therefore.
Principle based on the buoyancy measurement: Archimedes' principle, the object that promptly is immersed in the liquid is subjected to buoyancy upwards, and the buoyancy size equals the weight that this object arranges liquid.Therefore,, just can learn density of liquid, just know the concentration of liquid as long as measure the buoyancy that is immersed in the object in the liquid.
Therefore, the present invention has proposed a kind of device of measuring based on the pulp density of buoyancy measurement principle according to this principle.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of ore pulp concentration meter based on buoyancy measurement principle.
Ore pulp concentration meter of the present invention comprises ball float, lifting arm, sensor and topworks; Ball float is fixedly connected on the below end of lifting arm, and lifting arm hangs on sensor base, and sensor is installed in the output terminal of topworks; The rising and the decline of topworks's driving lifting arm make the terminal ball float in lifting arm below climb away measured medium or measured medium is sunk in decline, and it is stressed that the sensor ball float rises and descends.
Described topworks can adopt this area equipment commonly used, and this equipment can provide the rectilinear motion of specifying stroke, as cylinder, electric pushrod etc.;
Described sensor can be selected this area pressure transducer commonly used for use, according to the needs of ore pulp concentration meter of the present invention, and the preferred drawing and pressing type LOAD CELLS of the present invention;
Described ball float can select for use the hollow of this area all kinds of materials commonly used or medicine ball as ball float, and the hollow ball of preferred metal, plastics or rubber material commonly used is as ball float.
In addition, ore pulp concentration meter of the present invention can also comprise isolates bucket, described isolations bucket lower opening, be arranged on ball float around, external world's ore pulp is to the influence of ball float when avoiding measuring.
Preferably, described isolation bucket bottom opening, after ball float descended, its lower edge still was positioned at the top that isolates the bucket bottom.
Ore pulp concentration meter of the present invention can also comprise wash tub pipe, and described wash tub pipe is arranged on the top of ball float, can wash the ore pulp of ball float outer wall.
In addition, described ore pulp concentration meter can also comprise signal converter, described signal converter is used for the signal of conversion sensor, is the electric signal (as the signal of 4-20mA, 1-5V) accepted of instrument or other signals of standard communication modes with the conversion of signals of sensor.
According to Archimedes' principle, the measuring process of ore pulp concentration meter of the present invention is as follows:
1. demarcate:
Weight was not P when ball float sank to measured medium
10(unit: gram), weight is P when sinking to measured medium
20At this moment, obtain the ore pulp of certain volume with a graduated cylinder, the volume of ore pulp is L, and the weight that claims ore pulp to add graduated cylinder is M
a, the weight of graduated cylinder own is M
b, then:
Ore pulp weight: M=M
a-M
b
Ball float is subjected to buoyancy in ore pulp, the mechanical balance formula is:
P
10-P
20=ρV
0
So the volume that sinks to ball float under the liquid level is:
2. measure:
1) to record the tare weight of ball float be P to sensor
1(unit: gram)
2) under topworks's positive interaction, ball float sinks to measured medium (diagram dotted line position) fully, and recording ball float weight after waiting to stablize is P
2
3) under topworks's retroaction, ball float rises, and breaks away from the measured medium liquid level;
4) wash tub pipe is opened, flushing ball float outer wall;
5) result of calculation is finished one-shot measurement.
It is as follows that pulp density calculates process:
The density of ore pulp:
(unit: grams per liter)
The concentration of ore pulp:
In the formula, the density of δ-ore, unit: gram per centimeter
3Or ton/rice
3
Ore pulp concentration meter of the present invention is simple in structure, can realize simply and easily that the pulp density in the mineral processing craft process is measured, and the pulp density that is particularly useful in the open containers is measured, also can be by increasing pulp density in the utility appliance measuring channel.Compare with existing ore pulp concentration meter, ore pulp concentration meter of the present invention can carry out intermittence to pulp density to be measured, and has reduced the time that densimeter contacts with ore pulp, does not tie calcium and blocking problem, the reliability height of instrument; Principle of work is simple, and Stability Analysis of Structures, reliable helps to obtain technic index, reduces power consumption, improves the production target and the recovery.
