Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A particulate material production apparatus is disclosed. The particulate material production apparatus includes a droplet ejector to eject droplets of a particulate material composition liquid or a melted particulate material composition in a droplet ejection direction from nozzles; a solidifying device to solidify the droplets; a first airflow forming device to form a first airflow to feed the ejected droplets to the solidifying device with the first airflow; and a second airflow forming device to form a second airflow to apply the second airflow the droplets before the droplets are fed by the first airflow. The second airflow forming device forms the second airflow by supplying a pressed gas from a slit, and the traveling direction of the first airflow is substantially perpendicular to the droplet ejection direction.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A particulate material production apparatus comprising: a droplet ejector to eject droplets of a particulate material composition liquid or a melted particulate material composition in a droplet ejection direction from nozzles located on a droplet ejection surface of the droplet ejector; wherein the droplet ejector comprises: a common liquid passage in fluid communication with a liquid column resonance chamber to contain the particulate material compositi…
