Abstract
The invention relates to A powder production system comprising a body (2), at least one mill (3) located on the body (2) so as to rotate about its axis, more than one ball (b) being located in the mill (3), the balls (b) acting on a material to be ground (m) therein by exerting frictional and impact forces on the material to be ground (m) so that the material to be ground (m) is brought to a powder form, and at least one gas supply unit (7) located on the body (2), therebyenabling gas (g) to flow into the body (2).
Claims12
A powder production system (1) comprising:
- a body (2);
- at least one mill (3) located on the body (2) so as to rotate about an axis of the mill;
- more than one ball (b) being located in said mill (3), said balls (b) acting on a material to be ground (m) therein by exerting frictional and impact forces;
- more than one pore (4) on the lateral wall of the mill (3), enabling powder and gas (g) present in the mill (3) to pass out of the mill (3);
- a reservoir (5) located on the body (2) so as to entirely surround the mill (3) and to be concentric with the mill (3), thereby enabling the collection of powder that passes through the pores (4):
- at least one heater (6) located inside and/or outside of the reservoir (5), enabled to heat the mill (3) and/or the reservoir (5);
- at least one gas supply unit (7) located on the body (2), thereby enabling gas (g) comprising pure hydrogen and/or hydrogen diluted with inert gas to flow through the body (2) into the reservoir (5);
- and
- wherein the mill (3) provides grinding of said material to be ground (m), said material to be ground (m) assuming a brittle structure as a result of entering into chemical reaction with the gas (g), and wherein the gas supply unit (7) causes the gas to transfer from the reservoir (5) to the mill (3).
