SYSTEMS, DEVICES AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED EFFICIENCY OF BALL MILLS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240024884 titled 'SYSTEMS, DEVICES AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED EFFICIENCY OF BALL MILLS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a drum assembly for a ball mill system. The drum assembly includes a drum with a first flange extending forward from a first radial wall, a second flange extending aft from a second radial wall, and a cylinder shell extending between the two radial walls. The assembly also includes a frame coupled to the first flange and an inlet liner coupled to the frame. The inlet liner consists of multiple inlet segments arranged circumferentially adjacent to each other and defines an inlet radius for the drum assembly.

  • The drum assembly is designed for use in a ball mill system.
  • It includes a drum with flanges and a cylinder shell.
  • The assembly also includes a frame and an inlet liner.
  • The inlet liner is made up of multiple segments arranged in a circular pattern.
  • The inlet liner determines the inlet radius for the drum assembly.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Ball mill systems in various industries such as mining, cement, and chemical processing.
  • Grinding and pulverizing materials in a controlled manner.
  • Enhancing the efficiency and performance of ball mill systems.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a drum assembly that allows for efficient material grinding and pulverization.
  • Ensures proper material flow and distribution within the ball mill system.
  • Prevents material buildup and blockages in the inlet area.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved grinding and pulverizing efficiency.
  • Enhanced material flow and distribution.
  • Reduced risk of material buildup and blockages.
  • Increased overall performance and productivity of ball mill systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

a drum assembly for a ball mill system may comprise: a drum having a first flange extending axially forward from a first radial wall, a second flange extending axially aft from a second radial wall, and a cylinder shell extending axially from a first radially outer end of the first radial wall to a second radially outer end of the second radial wall; a frame coupled to the first flange; and an inlet liner coupled to the frame, the inlet liner comprising a plurality of inlet segments disposed circumferentially adjacent to each other, the inlet liner defining an inlet radius for the drum assembly.
