A circular disc element having at least two beam elements. Each beam element extends beyond an outer circumference of the circular disc element in an extension direction which is parallel to a radial direction of the disc element. The circular disc element further includes at least two holes extending through the circular disc element in a longitudinal direction which is substantially perpendicular to each of the extension directions with respect to a circumferential direction of the circular disc element, which circumferential direction corresponds to the outer circumference of the circular disc element. The circular disc element can function as a grinding means in a grinding process for grinding slurry.

A closure system is disclosed for the grinding container of a crushing apparatus; the grinding container includes at least one closure plug, an adapter unit having a through-opening, in which the closure plug can be inserted, the latter therefore closing the opening and being retained by the adapter unit, and also includes one or more fixing elements, wherein the one or more fixing elements establish a releasable connection between the adapter unit and the grinding container, in order to secure the adapter unit in removable fashion on the grinding container. Also disclosed is a grinding container having a closure system and further discloses a crushing apparatus.

An apparatus for producing spherical metallic powders through continuous ball milling. The apparatus includes a comminution component. The comminution component includes an inlet to receive a metallic material at a first region within the comminution component and an outlet to dispense the metallic powder from a second region within the comminution component. The apparatus includes a plurality of grinding components to grind the metallic material, the plurality of grinding components being arranged within the comminution component. The apparatus includes a drive component, connected with the comminution component, to induce movement of the metallic material and the plurality of grinding components within the comminution component such that the metallic material is fragmented through contact with the plurality of grinding components at the first region and an external surface of the fragmented metallic material is altered at the second region to produce the metallic powder.

A method is disclosed for crushing material to be ground with a mill which contains a grinding chamber which is connected to a feed for material to be ground and to an outlet for ground particles, and contains grinding devices for producing particles of the desired fineness from the fed material to be ground, wherein the grinding takes place in a reducing atmosphere which contains a reduction gas. Also disclosed, is a mill having a grinding chamber which is connected to a feed for material to be ground and to an outlet for ground particles, and contains grinding devices for producing particles of the desired fineness from the fed material to be ground, wherein the grinding chamber contains a reducing atmosphere in which the grinding takes place and which contains a reduction gas.

An agitator ball mill comprises agitating discs (18) on an agitating shaft drivable in a spinning direction (38), which are provided with entraining profiles (35). These entraining profiles (35) are formed by channels (36) each comprising with itsin relation to the spinning direction (38)trailing wall (39) an inner channel section (49) running radially straight relative to the central longitudinal axis (15) and having a length f, and in the further course an outer bent-off channel section (41), which is bent off counter to the spinning direction (38).
