  • Patent number: 7905434
    Abstract: In order to manufacture the compound powder or the porous granulated substance in an efficient manner, a powder processing apparatus has an accumulating face on which the processing target powder is to be accumulated and a processing face disposed in opposition to the accumulating face and convexly curved, and a moving means for moving the accumulating face and the processing face along the accumulating face relative to each other. The apparatus comprises an excitement treatment means capable of applying an excitation energy to the processing target powder accumulated on the accumulating face from an excitation energy supplying portion disposed in opposition to the accumulating face or an oscillation means for oscillating the accumulating face or the processing face in a direction intersecting the accumulating face.

  • Patent number: 6695238
    Abstract: Liquid material is caused to freeze as a molded frozen body in a cylindrical form after the shape of the tubular inner wall surface of the freeze-drying apparatus, wherein the moisture content of the molded frozen material is sublimated under the vacuum to freeze-dry the material in the apparatus. A discharge port is defined at the lower end side of the tube, and jet nozzles are disposed, in the inner wall surface of the tube, for ejecting compressed air or gas toward the inner bore of the tube. The molded frozen body of the liquid material as freeze-dried is crushed and pulverized within the tube, by jet current ejected from jet nozzles.
