Publication number: 20230256453Abstract: Problems occur in a bead mill due to wear on a sealing member of a sealing device disposed on a contact portion between a rotating portion and slurry, and due to the adhesion of deposits on the sealing device. A bead mill device that stirs a mixture of slurry and beads in a vertical cylindrical container includes a slurry storage vessel disposed above the cylindrical container, and a slurry flow passage through which the slurry flows from the slurry storage vessel into the cylindrical container. A component that causes the slurry in the slurry flow passage to flow downward is disposed on a rotary shaft. Further, a component for suppressing the flow of the slurry is disposed in the slurry storage vessel. This structure obviates the need to dispose a mechanical sealing device on the rotary shaft.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2023Publication date: August 17, 2023Applicant: HIROSHIMA METAL & MACHINERY CO., LTD.Inventors: Tetsuharu Ibaraki, Kaoru Yamaguchi, Kazuyuki Natsumeda, Daisuke Hirata, Kouji Senda
