The size and shape looks more like PM Nickel to me:

and it seems more in keeping with what is listed in the patent
as: Powder nickel: Gerli Metalli--Milan
I don't see them making Raney nickel.

At the magnification used, this patent image is consistent with
Raney nickel
IMO.
You can see that the globules have a lot of smaller nano features
which
would not be resolved without far greater magnification.
Are not the globules consistent with this image?

Take a look at Hunter Chemical's Nickel Powder, especially grade
AH50. Has a very nice photo with 20 micron bar.
