Abstract: There is described a modular cabinet for storing and driving stirrer cans containing liquids, the modular cabinet comprising a bottom stand on which at least one cabinet module is mounted, and a motion transmission system constituted by driver transmission elements and by driven transmission elements, each cabinet module being made up of two upright elements and a mechanical shelf for supporting and driving stirrer cans. The driver transmission elements of the motion transmission system are disposed outside said mechanical shelf and are independent thereof, and the mechanical shelf contains only the driven transmission elements.

Abstract: A torque limiter driving head for paint cans with a stirrer is arranged in a storage cabinet for the paint cans. A number of rotatably driven pulleys and a matching number of stirring shafts are provided. The pulleys have a hub and the stirring shafts are inserted into the hubs. The hubs have elastic, radially inwardly projecting tabs. The stirring shafts have a non-circular portion engaged by the elastic, radially inwardly projecting tabs. The stirring shafts comprise a transverse pin-and-blade arrangement for driving stirrers of the paint cans.
