Impact crushing of rock and ore

Abstract: A lump of rock or ore is subjected to a primary impact force P₁, and then the resultant pieces are subjected to a secondary impact force P₂. The application of the impact forces P₁ and P₂ is synchronized. The velocity vector V₁ of the lump subjected to the primary impact force P₁ and the vector of the secondary impact force P₂ lie on a line running through the center of mass of the lump. Apparatus for performing the process comprises a housing (4) accommodating a primary crushing rotor (1) and a secondary crushing rotor (2), and means for synchronizing the rotation of the rotors (1,2). The secondary rotor (2) has two hammers, and its mass increases along a longitudinal axis of symmetry (X-X) in a direction away from its axis of rotation (a₂).

Description: The present invention relates to a process for impact crushing of rock and ore lumps, and to an apparatus for performing said process. The invention can be employed to crush raw materials in the mining, chemical, construction and coal industries and to process mineral fertilizers and mineral feedstock. Impact crushing is well known in engineering, and so is equipment, including numerous hammer and rotary crushers, to perform it. A prior art impact crushing process is carried out in several stages. At the first stage, the impact tool, or hammer, of the crusher strikes the lumps of feedstock entering the crushing chamber. Each of the lumps subjected to a primary impact force is broken up partially and thrown against a deflecting member at a definite velocity. At the second stage, lump striking the deflecting element is subjected to a secondary impact force, which crushes the lump to a definite size.In a simple case, one deflecting member is used, in which case a lump is crushed in two stages, though the crushing result is minimal. The deflecting members, which are arranged in succession one after another are metal plates, grid bars, rods, bars, or screens. Three or four deflecting members, less frequently more than five members, are installed to improve the efficiency of crushing. In this case, a lump is crushed in an average of four to six stages. From the viewpoint of energy transmission, impact against a stationary barrier has the weakest effect possible (ref., E.V. Alexandrov and V.V. Sokolinsky, "Applied Theory and Calculation of Impact Systems", Nedra Publishers, Moscow, 1969, pp. 15 and 17). The above-described process has a low crushing effect since the surface of the deflecting member has a single function, directing lumps of feed material back to the impact members of the primary crushing rotor. In this case, the energy of the deflecting member itself is not utilized. Also widely used in the art are centrifugal impact crushers, in which rock lumps are engaged by an acceleration rotor or disk and imparted a considerable velocity of up to 100 or 120 m/sec. The centrifugal force throws the lumps against a barrier which is designed as a ring mounted fixedly or rotatably about a common center of rotation. The impact of the rock lumps against the annular barrier and the pattern of subsequent crushing do not actually differ from the conventional impact crushing process. Furthermore, this process is characterized by considerable specific consumption and inefficient use of electric power. Another prior art crusher comprises two horizontal rotors of the AP-CM type (ref., for example, prospectus of the Holmes Hazemag firm, Roots Division of Dresser Holmes, Ltd.). The rotors are arranged one above the other in the crusher so that the line connecting the axes of rotation of the rotors is inclined to the horizontal, plane at a certain angle. In this crusher, rock lumps are crushed successively by the primary crushing rotor, and then by the deflecting members provided along the periphery thereof, and finally further crushed by the secondary crushing rotor which is also provided with fixed or spring-biased deflecting members arranged along the periphery thereof. The crushing process is carried out in six to eight stages. To increase the frequency of collisions, one of the rotors is provided with six hammers. This crusher has all the drawbacks indicated above, that is, considerable power consumption and low efficiency. A yet another prior art impact crusher (ref., for example, French Patent No. 2,091,446 of 1972) comprises two rotors, the axes of which lie in a plane extending at an angle to the horizon and the rotors themselves are positioned one above the other. The rotors rotate in opposite directions. Both rotors crush the rock successively and are provided with fixed deflecting members as well. The crusher has a large overall height, is inconvenient to operate, and requires much power and metal. A further prior art impact crusher comprises a housing having a primary crushing rotor secured therein, with two secondary crushing rotors and a charging hole provided above it, the housing wall serving as a feed chute to deliver rock and ore lumps to the primary crushing rotor, with a discharging hole provided beneath it (ref., for example, USSR Inventor's Certificate No. 183,053). This crusher performs a process for impact crushing of rock and ore lumps, comprising subjecting a rock lump first to a primary impact force that causes the lump to break up into a plurality of smaller pieces which are then subjected to a secondary impact force having a stochastic force vector distribution profile. In operation, the material to be crushed is directed to the primary crushing rotor and then thrown against the hammers of the secondary crushing rotors. In this crusher, the hammers of the secondary crushing rotors are used as the deflecting members. Rock lumps are crushed in three stages. At the first stage, crushing occurs as the material is engaged by the primary crushing rotor hammers. At the second stage, the material is crushed as it is engaged by the secondary crushing rotor hammers. At the third stage, the lumps are finally broken up against the grid bars. This crusher helps to slightly improve the efficiency of crushing and the quality of material. However, it, too, has a number of drawbacks, the principal of which are as follows: stochastic pattern of rock lump crushing because the arrangement and operation of all the rotors are not synchronized in time; the impact force delivered by the secondary crushing rotor to the lump has a low efficiency because the rotor has a low speed of rotation, but essentially because a direct central impact cannot be delivered; the mass of the secondary crushing rotors performing deflecting functions is focused in their centers; for which reason the disintegrating effect of the rotors cannot be utilized in full; and the arrangement of the primary and secondary crushing rotors on a vertical axis reduces the possibility of crusher efficiency being improved, increases the overall dimensions of the crusher and raises labour inputs for operation and maintenance. US-A-1 331 969 discloses a process in accordance with the pre-characterising part of claim 1 and an impact crusher in accordance with the pre-characterising part of claim 2. It describes a rotary impact pulverizer in which two rotors, each having a plurality of hammers, rotate synchronously in the same direction. The paths of the respective hammers overlap. The hammers have flat striking faces. As lumps of material drop from an inlet passage they are struck by the hammers of the first rotor and projected downwards into a pulverizing region between the rotors. In this region the lumps are struck randomly by the hammers of the second rotor and projected upwards so that they can be struck again by the hammers of the first rotor. The present invention is aimed at developing a process for impact crushing of rock and ore lumps, in which the synchronized effect of the primary crushing force applied to a large-size lump and a secondary crushing force applied to pieces of a smaller size makes it possible to increase significantly the efficiency of the crushing process, to crush very hard rocks, reducing them to a small size, and to decrease the number of crushing steps in the process. The invention is also aimed at developing an apparatus for performing the above process. The present invention provides an impact crusher for crushing lumps of rock or ore, comprising a housing accommodating a primary crushing rotor and a secondary crushing rotor which has at least two hammers, the housing having a charging hole above the primary rotor, a feed chute for delivering lumps of rock or ore from the charging hole to the primary rotor, and a discharging hole under the primary rotor, and means for synchonizing the rotation of the rotors, characterised in that the rotors rotate in opposite directions, and the secondary rotor has, in a plane normal to the axis of rotation, a section profile with a curved impact deflecting surface such that the mass of the secondary rotor increases along a longitudinal axis of symmetry in the direction away from the axis of rotation so that its moment of inertia along the longitudinal axis of symmetry is equal to more than five times the moment of inertia along the transverse axis of symmetry. In particular, use of the impact crusher comprises first subjecting a lump to a primary impact force to break up the lump into resultant pieces which are then each subjected to a secondary impact force, the secondary impact forces applied to the resultant pieces being synchronized in relation to the primary impact force, the velocity vector of each resultant piece following the application of the primary impact force and the vector of the secondary impact force applied to that piece being directed in opposite directions along a line passing through the center of mass of that piece, and the ratio of the momentum imparted to the nieces of the lump by the secondary impact force to the momentum imparted to the lump by the primary impact force lying within the range of 0.3 to 70.0, the momentum imparted to the lump by the primary impact force being at least 180 kg m/sec. It is preferred that the means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotor and the primary crushing rotor is in the form of a toothed belt transmission, including sprockets fitted on the shafts of the respective rotors. It is advantageous that the synchronizing means should be in the form of a gear chain transmission, the gears of which are fitted on the shafts of the respective rotors. It is preferred that the means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotor and the primary crushing rotor be in the form of a gear transmission. It is also useful that the means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotor and the primary crushing rotor be in the form of a stepless transmission. It is useful that the impact deflecting surface of the secondary rotor should be a surface of revolution, the radius of curvature of which should be equal to the distance from the intersection point of the feed chute plane and the circle of a maximum radius R 1 of rotation of the primary crushing rotor to the impact deflecting surface of the secondary crushing rotor in a position when said radius of curvature is normal to the longitudinal axis of the secondary crushing rotor. It is preferable that the impact deflecting surface of the secondary crushing should be riffled. It is preferred that the crusher should comprise another secondary crushing rotor provided in a symmetric mirror position relative to the first secondary crushing rotor at a minimum spacing when the longitudinal axis of each rotor is normal to the radius of curvature of the impact deflecting surface extending through the center of rotation of the rotor, and should be provided with means allowing the secondary crushing rotors to rotate in the opposite directions, said means being kinematically coupled with said rotors. It is also useful that the impact deflecting surface of the secondary crushing rotor should have a biconcave profile in a section normal to the axis of rotation. It is preferred that the impact deflecting surface of the secondary crushing rotor should have a straight portion conjugating with a curved portion in a section normal to the axis of rotation.

The process for impact crushing of rock and ore lumps is carried out as follows: First, attention is turned to lump reduction in a crusher containing a single primary crushing rotor and a single secondary crushing rotor. A rock lump to be reduced is first subjected to a primary impact force, for which purpose the rock lump is advanced at a speed V along an inclined chute to a primary crushing rotor 1 (Fig. 1a). The impact breaks up the lump into a number of smaller pieces, which are imparted by the impact a resultant velocity V 1 (Fig. 1b) directed toward a second rotor 2. The rotor 1 rotates at an angular velocity ω 1 . The rotor 2 rotates at an angular velocity ω 2 oppositely to the rotor 1. As the smaller pieces reach the secondary crushing rotor 2 they are subjected to a secondary impact force (Fig. 1c). The process is performed so that the primary impact force P 1 applied to the larger lump is synchronized with the secondary impact force P 2 applied to the smaller pieces. Furthermore, the velocity vector V 1 of the lump subjected to the primary impact force P 1 and the vector of the secondary impact force P 2 lie on a line passing through the center of the lump mass. A deflecting member of the secondary crushing rotor 2 performs not only the passive deflecting and partical lump reducing function, but is actively involved in the crushing process by transferring part of its kinetic energy to the lump. Furthermore, the momentum imparted to the lump by the secondary impact force P 2 is proportional to the momentum imparted to the lump by the primary impact force P 1 , and ranges from 0.3 to 70.0 times the latter, at a minimum momentum imparted by the primary impact, force P 1 equal to 180 kgm/sec. The secondary impact force P 2 reduces the smaller pieces to still smaller particles, which are thrown against a bar screen at a velocity V 2 (Fig. 1d). Crushing is carried out more effectively in a crusher comprising one primary crushing rotor 1 and two secondary crushing rotors 2 and 3. In this case, a rock lump is first subjected to a primary impact force, for which purpose the rock lump is advanced at a velocity V along an inclined chute to the primary crushing rotor 1 (Fig. 2a). The rotor rotates at an angular velocity ω 1 . The impact breaks up the lump into a number of smaller pieces which are imparted by the impact a velocity V 1 (Fig. 2b) directed toward the secondary crushing rotors 2 and 3. The rotors 2 and 3 rotate at angular velocities ω 2 = ω 3 directed toward each other. The pieces reach the rotors 2 and 3 and are subjected to the secondary impact force P 2 (Fig. 2c). The impact forces P 1 and P 2 are synchronized in time. Besides, the vector of the lump velocity V 1 produced by the first impact force P 1 and the vector of the secondary impact force P 2 lie on a line running through the center of the lump mass. The active operating mode imparted to the deflecting members of the secondary crushing rotors 2 and 3, which transmit part of their kinetic energy, added up with the energy acquired by the lumps under the effect of the primary impact force P 1 , to the material being reduced influences significantly the lump reduction results. The total kinetic energy is released upon the active collision of the lump and the deflecting member over a period of time considerably shorter than the normal collision time in conventional impact crushers. This energy produces fields of super-critical stress that exceeds the strength of all rock types. Deformation processes set off by an impact cause irreversible changes in the solid-state condition of rock lumps and their rapid disintegration into small particles (Fig. 2d). The significant distinctions of the process contribute new properties to the reduction process, in particular, a rapid rise in the efficiency of crushing and formation of a fine-grained product of a substantially isometric shape. It has been observed that by changing the collision conditions, that is, controlling the weight and speed parameters of the force vectors, it is possible to control the reduction process to obtain a product of a desired granulometric composition, the less resistant reduction products being discharged into the minus class. The impact crusher comprises a housing 4 (Fig. 3) having a primary crushing rotor 1 secured therein and a secondary crushing rotor 2 fixed over the latter. The housing 4 has a charging hole 5 located above the rotor 1, the wall of the housing 4 serving as a feed chute 6 to deliver rock and ore lumps onto the primary crushing rotor 1. A discharging hole 7 with a bar grid 8 is provided under the rotor 1. The crusher comprises means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotor and the primary crushing rotor, said means being connected kinematically to the rotors 1 and 2. Following below is a description of specific embodiments of said means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotor and the primary crushing rotor. In the embodiment described, the secondary crushing rotor 2 has two hammers and has a variable curvature impact deflecting surface in a plane normal to the axis of rotation a 2 so that the mass of the rotor 2 increases along the longitudinal axis of symmetry X-X in the direction away from the axis of rotation a 2 . The moment of inertia of the rotor 2 along the longitudinal axis of symmetry X-X is more than five times the moment of inertia along the transverse axis of symmetry Y-Y. In the embodiment described, the means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotor and the primary crushing rotor is made in the form of a toothed chain transmission. A sprocket 9 (Fig. 4) is fitted on the same shaft (not shown) as the rotor 1, and a sprocket 10, on the same shaft as the rotor 2. Numeral 11 designates a tension sprocket, numeral 12 a guide sprocket and numeral 13 a toothed chain. In another embodiment (not shown), the means for synchronizing the rotation of one secondary crushing rotor with the primary crushing rotor is a gear chain transmission. Similarly to the above, the gears of this transmission are fitted on the respective shafts of the rotors 1 and 2. In another embodiment, the impact crusher comprises two secondary crushing rotors 2 and 3 (Fig. 5). The rotors 2 and 3 are arranged in a symmetrical mirror pattern in a position where the longitudinal axis X-X and Y-Y of each rotor 2 and 3 is normal to the radius of curvature of the impact deflecting surface running through the center of rotation of the rotors. The crusher is further provided with means which synchronizes the rotation of the secondary crushing rotors and the primary crushing rotor. Also, the crusher comprises means causing the secondary crushing rotors to rotate in the opposite directions. In a still further embodiment, the means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotors and the primary crushing rotor is in the form of a toothed chain transmission. Similarly to the above-described, the sprockets of this gear are fitted each on the same shaft with the respective rotor. A sprocket 14 (Fig. 6) is fitted on a common shaft with the rotor 1,a sprocket 15, on a common shaft with the rotor 2, and a sprocket 16 on a common shaft with the rotor 3. The shafts are not shown in Fig. 6. Numeral 17 designates a tension sprocket and numeral 18, a toothed chain. Moreover, this transmission causes the secondary crushing rotors 2 and 3 to rotate in the opposite directions. In yet another embodiment, the means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotors and the primary crushing rotor is a gear chain transmission. In this embodiment, the gears can be fitted on common shafts with the rotors or, alternatively, the transmission may comprise a device kinematically couple to the shafts of the rotors 2 and 3 (Fig. 7). In the embodiment described, the gears are fitted each on a common shaft with a respective rotor. A gear 19 is fitted on the shaft of the rotor 1, a gear 20, on the shaft of the rotor 2, and a gear 21, on the shaft of the rotor 3. Numeral 22 designates a tension sprocket, numeral 23, a guide sprocket and numeral 24, a chain. Fig. 8 illustrates an embodiment of the means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotors and the primary crushing rotor in the form of a gear transmission. A gear 25 is fitted on the shaft of the rotor 1, a gear 26, on the shaft of the rotor 2, and a gear 27, on the shaft of the rotor 3. Gears 28 and 29 form kinematic pairs. In a still further embodiment, the means for synchronizing the rotation of the secondary crushing rotors and the primary crushing rotor is a stepless transmission, for example, expanding pulleys (not shown) or friction clutches. In the embodiment described, the impact deflecting surface of the secondary crushing rotor 2 (Fig. 5) is a surface of revolution, the radius R of curvature of which is equal to the distance from the intersection point 0 between the plane of the feed chute 6 and the circle of a maximum radius R 1 of rotation of the primary crushing rotor 1 and the impact deflecting surface of the secondary crushing rotor 2 in a position where said radius of curvature is normal to the longitudinal axis X-X of the secondary crushing rotor 2. Conventionally, said surface is smooth (numeral 30 in Fig. 9). In an alternative embodiment, the impact deflecting surface is riffled, as shown by numeral 31. The section of the impact deflecting surface of the secondary crushing rotor 2 normal to the axis of rotation may have a biconcave profile. In another embodiment, the impact deflecting surface of the secondary crushing rotor 2 has, in a section normal to the axis of rotation, a straight portion 32 and a curved portion 33 which are conjugated at a point A. The crusher is operated as follows: A rock lump (Fig. 5) is delivered, through the charging hole 5, along the feed chute 6 on to one of the hammers of the primary crushing rotor 1. Having received a primary impact impulse from the latter, the lump is broken up into pieces and thrown toward the secondary crushing rotors 2 and 3. The paths of the lump piece originate at the point 0 lying on the front edge of the hammer of the primary crushing rotor 1 and fan out with a radius vector R. Since the rotation of the secondary crushing rotor 2, 3 is synchronized, through a kinematic link, with the rotation of the primary crushing rotor 1, its deflecting surface having a curved profile with a radius of curvature R occupies, at the moment of collision with the rock pieces, a position in which the radius vector of the material pieces is normal to each point of said surface. During collision, the rock pieces absorb much more energy than is required to crush them, according to the equation: W Σ = W 1 + W 0 , wherein: W Σ is the total energy absorbed by the material being crushed; W 1 is the energy acquired by the rock mass pieces after the primary impact; and W 0 is the energy of the deflecting member. For this reason the rock pieces subjected to a secondary impact are disintegrated into very small particles, and the process as a whole develops in a fast-flowing pulsating mode; moreover, owing to the opposite rotation of the primary and secondary crushing rotors the reduction products are withdrawn intensively through the discharging hole 7. The distinguishing features of the process and crusher allow rocks to be processed by an effective and qualitatively new technique which is simplified and made considerably less costly by reducing the number of stages, decreasing the quantity of basic and ancillary equipment, and lowering capital and labour inputs. Compared with the prior art crushing processes and crushing and grinding equipment, the present impact crushing process makes it possible to: crush rocks of virtually any hardness class; obtain a ground product of any desired grain size and quality in a single stage; decrease power and metal consumption; provide a high grinding degree; obtain a crushed product of a substantially isometric shape; and lower operating costs and prime cost of processed mineral stock.
