Abstract

An improved vertical grinding mill is provided which has a shell, a vertical helically bladed shaft rotatably mounted in the shell, a collector, a drive for the shaft, and a fan or a pump. The shaft is hollow and its lower end is open at the bottom of the shell. This assures a uniform distribution of the material to be treated, the grinding medium and the product particles and thus high production efficiency.
