Patent ID: 10035241

Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a shot processing device and a projector such that the projection amount of a projection material can be minimized. The present invention provides a shot processing device equipped with a centrifugal projector for projecting a projection material onto a workpiece and a support mechanism for supporting the workpiece at a processing position where surface processing by the projector can be carried out, wherein the projector is equipped with: a cylindrical control cage which the projection material is supplied into and which has an opening formed on a side wall as a projection material discharge port; and an impeller that has a plurality of blades, which are arranged outside of the control cage and extend outward in the radial direction of the control cage, and rotates about the central axis of the control cage, wherein each blade has, disposed on a front-side surface in the rotation direction, a rearward inclined section inclining toward the rear-side in the rotation direction.
