Grate ball mill primarily consists of six parts, viz, the barrel, feeding part, discharging part, bearing part and lubrication system. The lining plate is installed inside the barrel, whose materials are from manganese steel, chrome steel, cast iron, and rubber. There¡¯s a hole in the barrel for the use of maintenance and changing of the liner.
Overflow ball mill is basically similar to the grate ball mill in structure, also composed of six parts. The difference is that there¡¯s no grid plate device in the discharging part and the overflow ball mill is simpler than the grate ball mill in structure.
The overflow ball mill appeared earlier than the grate ball mill, the hollow shaft diameter of the discharging part is larger than the feeding one, that enables the ore pulp overflows from the discharging part. As the pulp overflows from the discharging port, the pulp level becomes lower then the height difference inside the ball mill forms which makes the pulp shift from the self-supporting port to the discharging part. That can greatly promote the productivity and improve the quality of the grinding products. In order to avoid the grinding medium or the coarse ore block from discharging with the pulp together, the boomerang spiral is installed in the quill shaft of the discharging port.
Co***red with the grate ball mill, the overflow ball mill discharges slower. It is suitable for fine grinding and requires prompt adjustment due to its sensitivity towards the change of the outside elements. Besides, its structure is simple and the maintenance is convenient.
While there are many small holes in the grid plate of the discharging port in the grate ball mill for the convenience of discharging the ore pulp. One side of the grid plate close to the discharging port installs a pulp bont. It is a kind of radial square beam, the room between the grid plate and the end cover is divided into several fan chambers leading to the quill shaft journal. When the mill starts rotating, the square beam plays a part in elev |
