A center plate for a rotor in a pulp refiner has a surface provided with at least one feeding wing for directing lignocellulose-containing material towards a periphery. The feeding wing is an elongated protrusion arranged such that its second end is arranged further away from a center of the center plate than a first end and also is displaced relative to the first end in a direction opposite to a direction of rotation of the rotor. The center plate is also provided with at least one counter-feeding wing for directing steam flowing along the surface towards the center of the center plate. The counter-feeding wing is an elongated protrusion arranged such that a second end of the counter-feeding wing is arranged further away from the center of the center plate than a first end and closer to the center of the center plate than the first end.

The invention regards to a device for comminuting ore and/or slag, which comprises an ore feed unit for feeding ore to be comminuted to a first comminuting means, the first comminuting means being composed of at least two comminuting elements that can be moved relative to each other, which elements form at least one comminuting space for the ore to be comminuted with each other such that, by a relative movement in the form of a rotation around the rotational axis of at least one of the two comminuting elements, the ore to be comminuted is pulverized in that one or more accelerating elements, in particular protrusions, are provided on at least one of the comminuting elements, said accelerating elements being arranged in particular on the end face of one of the two comminuting elements and accelerating and comminuting the ore to be comminuted by the rotation of one of the two comminuting elements, and wherein at least one of the two comminuting elements comprises a functional connection with a spring means, wherein the spring means is formed in such a way, that it mounts the comminuting element being in functional connection with variably in the direction of the other comminuting element.

A mill including a mill body including a feeding pipe and a discharging pipe; a motor; and a vessel including a feeding port, a discharging port, and a supporting base. The vessel is disposed outside the mill body, and a sealing space is formed between the vessel and the mill body. The feeding port is disposed on the outer wall of the upper part of the vessel and is in a seal-tight connection with the feeding pipe of the mill body through a soft feeding joint, and the discharging port is disposed on the outer wall of the lower part of the vessel and is in seal-tight connection with the discharging pipe of the mill body through a soft discharging joint. The supporting base is disposed at the bottom of the vessel, and the mill body is installed on the supporting base via a cushion pad.

A refiner for refining pulps, includes a shaft, a rotor disc attached firmly to the shaft and a shaft bearing, the rotor disc being disposed between two stator discs and forming a refining chamber between the rotor disc and the stator discs. The shaft is movable in an axial direction and the shaft bearing is connected hydraulically to the refining chamber, ensuring low wear on the rotor discs and stator discs and, in particular, on the refiner plates on these discs, also in continuous operation.

The shear gap between a rotor and a stator in a colloid mill is adjusted by translating the stator with respect to the rotor, preferably by moving the stator along a helical path about the rotor, thereby moving the stator's surface closer to or further from the rotor's surface (and altering the shear gap therebetween). Helical slots are provided in the casing about the stator, with members extending from the stator through the slots, whereby the members can be grasped and rotated about the casing to move the stator. Channels allowing circulation of buffer fluid are provided about the stator and rotor to deter ingress of the fluid being processed into junctures between components of the colloid mill.

An apparatus and a method for performing maintenance on grinding discs are disclosed. The apparatus can be positioned below the housing of a vertical grinding mill and attached to the housing in order to provide temporary support for grinding discs when the grinding discs are removed from the housing. The apparatus can be rotated so that it is in a longitudinal position when the grinding discs are within the housing.
