In order to solve the issues of the separation of the high-density mineral, TRIZ method of technical contradiction inventive principles was utilized to provide ideas to design a new-type dense medium separation equipment. The technical contradiction of the separation of high-density mineral by Dense medium separation technology was described by a pair of general engineering parameters, and the innovative principles were obtained by the technology of contradiction matrix. The concrete implementations of these innovation theories were carried, Combing with the actual situation of the separation. And a new-type Autogenous medium cyclone is developed which shall be more suitable for the separation of the high-density mineral.
