  • Paint mixer container clamping device with inertially driven can rotating function
    Patent number: 4415270
    Abstract: A device for mixing paint and similar thick liquids within a container in which the container is held between the jaws of a clamp and rocked back and forth by a source of power. The clamp jaws are freely mounted so that they can rotate with the container about its longitudinal axis. An inertially driven mechanism which is independent of the rocking power source serves to rotate the container about its longitudinal axis as it is rocked, thereby greatly reducing the time required to thoroughly mix the paint within the container.
