Abstract: A Container is disclosed with a stirrer device suitable to be installed on machines for dispensing fluid products. The container comprises a tank with a particular configuration defined by two cylinders each having a respective longitudinal axis, wherein the distance between two of the longitudinal axes is less than the diameter of a cylinder, and in which two stirrer units are comprised, coaxial to the cylinders of the tank. The stirrer units have elements that have a radial dimension a little less than the radius of the cylinders and are disposed along the substantial entirety of the longitudinal extension of shafts rotating axially, said shafts not having around them a zone not spatially affected by a stirrer element attached to said corresponding shaft.

Abstract: Provided is a stress distribution element for a mill shell joint, comprising an elongated body having a proximal end and a distal end. The elongated body varies in one dimension from the proximal end to the distal end to distribute stress forces from the proximal end to the distal end. The invention also provides a stress distribution system, a stress distribution assembly, a mill shell section, a mill shell and a method of distributing stress incorporating the stress distribution element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to tilting a wet stone grinder of capacity in the 125-300 liter size. Tilting is accomplished by a gear driven, manual or motorized tilting mechanism.

Abstract: An improved roller grinding mill in which a material grinding chamber is supplied with air in a tangential flow path through a multiple array of tangentially directed passages, material grinding rollers operate in a direction counter to the tangential air flow into the grinding chamber, and plows rotating in the same direction with the grinding rollers and formed with sloped surfaces for imparting an upward lift on the material to be ground for improving the fluidization of the material and maintaining a substantially constant particle size for delivery through the mill outlet.

Abstract: An improved milling process, wherein the material to be crushed is processed within a circular milling path under the action of at least one roller rolling along said path. The material is fed evenly distributed around the circumference of the milling path and enters it with a predetermined initial speed transversely to the extension of the path such that each piece to be crushed is subjected at least once to the action of one of the rollers. Under the action of an air current which is guided across the milling path pulverized material below a given grain size is immediately removed from the milling path, thereby avoiding the build-up of a thick and energy consuming layer on the milling path such that the milling forces are limited to the breaking forces for crushing the pieces fed into the milling path.

Abstract: A roller grinding mill having the grinding roll assemblies pivotally suspended from a frame rotated by a drive shaft, means supplying lubricant and pressure air to the internal structure of the mill for providing primary air seals to keep abrasive matter from working into the bearings with pressurizing the lubricant to provide a source of air internally of the grinding roll assemblies to set up a secondary air seal in the event of a break or leak in the pressure air which can interrupt the primary air seal, and means to monitor or detect a condition in the mill which would result in damage to the bearings if not attended to.

Abstract: Apparatus for grinding coal to micron fineness having a grinding chamber with a grinding surface supported by a circumferential wall in the grinding chamber, a plurality of grinding rolls orbiting in the grinding chamber for grinding the coal, air supply bustle surrounding the grinding chamber, air flow restrictor means opening from the air supply bustle to the grinding chamber to create a back pressure in the air supply bustle for substantially evenly distributing the air supplied to the grinding chamber around the circumference of the grinding chamber, and wherein the restrictor means directs the air flow tangentially relative to the circumferential wall of the grinding chamber so that the coal particles are caught up in a cyclonic movement having a large initial horizontally directed force to maintain a body of coal particles in the orbit of the grinding rolls, which horizontal force gradually diminishes as the vertical force component of the air flow lifts the ground coal particles out of the grinding cha

Abstract: An improvement is presented in an apparatus for processing soil for planting wherein a separator are provided for initially separating rocks and other large objects from soil prior to crushing thereof, the separator comprising a plurality of respectively upwardly and downwardly directed pins which cooperate in the removal of said rocks and other large objects from the soil. Also provided is a vertical rotatable power driven shaft centrally located in said apparatus wherein a plurality of radially extending arms are fixed thereto and are rotatable with the shaft. Some of said separating pins are fixed to the arms and some cooperating separating pins are fixed to a disc plate also mounted about said power driven shaft. A rotating plurality of discs crush said soil to reduce large particles and destroy weed seeds, insects, and larvae.
