HIGH-PRESSURE HOMOGENIZER

摘要

A high-pressure homogenizing apparatus, in which a material receiving recess can be easily cleaned without disassembling/assembling a pressurizing mechanism, is provided. The apparatus includes a high-pressure homogenizing mechanism (1) in which a suspension (2) or semisolid (2') containing a raw material (G) is passed through the orifice (3) to be subdivided; and a material receiving passage (8) communicated with the high-pressure homogenizing mechanism (1). One of the inserting member (5) and the material processing piston (4) is moved relatively to each, thereby the suspension or semisolid including the raw material is transferred into the material receiving passage (8) so as to be subdivided and processed.
When the material processing piston is moved back over open end (6a) of the material processing recess, the cleaning liquid (W) is introduced through the material receiving passage into the material processing recess and the inside of the material processing recess is cleaned.
