Media mill screen assembly

摘要

A media mill having a cylindrical vessel which is vertically oriented and a motor-driven rotor extending through the vessel to agitate grinding media and a liquid product within the vessel. A tubular outlet housing extends radially outward from the vessel and forms an opening through which a screen assembly is removably mounted. The screen assembly comprises a stack of adjacently positioned annular rings which are supported on a tubular carrier element. Adjacent screen elements retain the grinding media within the vessel while openings between the elements permit the milled product to flow therethrough and into an interior cavity terminating in an outlet. The screen assembly extends into the interior of the vessel and is removably secured to the outlet housing by a quick disconnect retainer means.
