The relative displacement in the axial direction between an outer ring fixing member or casing and an inner ring fixing member or rotor is determined, said outer ring fixing member being a member for affixing an outer ring of a bearing on one side, and said inner ring fixing member being a member for affixing an inner ring of the bearing on the one end side. When calculating a thrust load acting on the rotor by multiplying the determined relative displacement by a conversion coefficient, an axial force measuring bolt is used as a tightening bolt for affixing the bearing on the one end side, said axial force measuring bolt enabling measurement of a load acting in the axial direction. The axial force measured by the axial force measuring bolt and the relative displacement during measurement of the axial force are used to calibrate the conversion coefficient.

Disclosed are an ultrasonic transducer matching layer material and a preparation method thereof. The ultrasonic transducer matching layer material includes the following components in parts by weight: 1534 parts of phenolic resin, 5092 parts of alumina, 317 parts of graphite, 116 parts of carbon fiber, 1.55 parts of curing agent and 0.55 parts of lubricant. The ultrasonic transducer matching layer material is prepared by internal mixing and thermoforming the powder of raw materials.

A device for measuring a thrust load acting on a rotor of a hermetically sealed kneader includes displacement sensors (19) and a load-calculating member. The displacement sensors (19) are configured to measure relative displacement along the axial direction of an outer ring-fixing member (17), which is for fixing the outer ring (16) of one end of a bearing (6), or a casing (18) with respect to an inner ring-fixing member (20), which is for fixing the inner ring (13) of the one end of the bearing (6), or the rotor (5). The load-calculating unit calculates the thrust load acting on the rotor (5) by multiplying the relative displacement measured by the displacement sensors (19) by a conversion coefficient.

A mixer includes: a casing having an introduction port at an upper portion and having a rotor provided with a blade portion for mixing a material to be mixed, inside thereof; a floating weight which blocks the introduction port; and a floating weight moving mechanism which has a horizontal movement unit capable of horizontally moving the floating weight in a supported state between a delivery position just above the introduction port and a retracted position being lateral to the introduction port, on the upper side of the introduction port, and can move the floating weight separately from the horizontal movement unit from the delivery position to a blocking position at which the floating weight blocks the introduction port.
