Baffle plate
First Claim
1. A baffle plate to be attached to a fluid flow-forming body, the fluid flow-forming body comprising:
- a columnar main body;
a flat end face formed at the main body;
a concave part formed at the end face; and
a fluid flow-forming means for forming a fluid swirl flow in the concave part or forming a radial flow by discharging fluid into the concave part, the fluid swirl flow or the radial flow generating negative pressure that applies suction to a member,the baffle plate comprising;
a baffle plate main body that is attachable to and detachable from the fluid flow-forming body, and that allows a fluid to which suction is applied by the negative pressure to pass through, while preventing the member from entering the concave part;
a support member that is attached to the columnar main body at one end of the support member, and supports the baffle plate main body at another end of the support member such that the baffle plate main body opposes the end face, and that supports the baffle plate main body such that a gap between the end face and the baffle plate main body is maintained, and a fluid path is formed that allows a fluid flowing out of the concave part to flow; and
a gap maintaining part that maintains the gap between the end face and the baffle plate main body.

Abstract
Baffle plate to be attached to fluid flow-forming body includes baffle plate main body that is attachable to and detachable from fluid flow-forming body. Baffle plate main body allows a fluid to which suction is applied by negative pressure generated by fluid flow-forming body to pass through, while preventing a member from entering concave part of fluid flow-forming body. Baffle plate also includes support member that is attached to main body of fluid flow-forming body at one end thereof, and supports baffle plate main body at the other end thereof such that baffle plate main body opposes end face of fluid flow-forming body. Support member supports baffle plate main body such that a gap between end face and baffle plate main body is maintained, and a fluid path is formed that allows a fluid flowing out of concave part to flow.

9. A baffle plate to be attached to a fluid flow-forming body, the fluid flow-forming body comprising:
-
a columnar main body; a flat end face formed at the main body; a concave part formed at the end face; and a fluid flow-forming means for forming a fluid swirl flow in the concave part or forming a radial flow by discharging fluid into the concave part, the fluid swirl flow or the radial flow generating negative pressure that applies suction to a member, the baffle plate comprising; a baffle plate main body that is attachable to and detachable from the fluid flow-forming body, and that allows a fluid to which suction is applied by the negative pressure to pass through, while preventing the member from entering the concave part; and a support member that is attached to the columnar main body at one end of the support member, and supports the baffle plate main body at another end of the support member such that the baffle plate main body opposes the end face, and that supports the baffle plate main body such that a gap between the end face and the baffle plate main body is maintained, and a fluid path is formed that allows a fluid flowing out of the concave part to flow, wherein the support member is attached to the main body by use of an elastomeric force of the support member.
