  • Patent number: 11679364
    Abstract: The mixing or dispersing device and assembly equipped with such a device are proposed for optimizing the processing of mixed or dispersed substances, in particular tablets and/or capsules for medicinal drugs. The mixing or dispersing device includes in a mixing chamber, a motor-driven rotor having at least one cutting projection that has at least one cutting edge. A flow-disturbing element is further provided on an inner circumferential wall of the mixing chamber that surrounds the axis of rotation. Furthermore, a deflection surface is provided between the inner circumferential wall and a bottom of the mixing chamber. The at least one flow-disturbing element is spaced from the bottom of the mixing chamber, from the at least one cutting projection and from the circular path on which the at least one cutting projection is movable about the axis of rotation.

  • Patent number: 9149810
    Abstract: A device (1) for comminuting or grinding including a container (2) for receiving the material to be ground and a tool (5) which rotates in the container (2) during processing, and a drive for said tool (5). The container (2) having the tool (5) can be detachably coupled to the drive, which is to say that the container (2) having the tool (5) does not have to be cleaned after a grinding operation but can be replaced by a new such container (2). For this purpose, the tool (5) located in the container (2) can be rotated loosely when in the position of being detached or uncoupled from the drive or before a corresponding coupling operation and, when in the working position, is rotationally fixedly connected to the drive and centered by the coupling.

  • Patent number: 8317389
    Abstract: A microtiter plate (1), which can be used in a device G, comprises a plurality of receptacles (2) disposed next to one another for a substance or fluid to be stirred and analyzed, wherein stirring rods (3) are provided for stirring. So as to drive these stirring rods, it is provided that the bottoms (4) of the individual receptacles (2) are displaceable and deflectable and that a stirring rod (3) penetrates each of them centrally, the rod being seized by a drive on an outer section (3b) protruding downward beyond the bottom (4) such that it can be set into a back and forth motion or a gyrating or rotary motion and thus continues the desired stirring motion on the inside of the receptacle (2).

  • Patent number: 8303162
    Abstract: A mixing device (1) including a rotor (6) having pulverizing edges (7) and acting together with pulverizing edges (9) of a stator (8) is provided. The rotor (6) simultaneously executes a feeding effect in the axial direction using pump vanes, and the stator is externally closed in the radial direction. At least one rolling bearing is provided behind the rotor (6) in the feeding direction, the rolling elements (14) thereof inducing further pulverizing of the products processed in the mixing device (1). A further pump vane unit (15) behind the rolling bearing (12) in the feeding direction can preferably improve the flow of the medium, particularly through the rolling bearing (12), and transport the processed medium out of the device (1), preferably in the radial direction.

  • Patent number: 7784722
    Abstract: A stirring or dispersing device (1), has a hermetically sealed mixing chamber (5), a tool (2), and a drive mechanism (4) located outside of the mixing chamber (5). The tool (2) can be driven around a central shaft in the mixing chamber (5) which has a rod-shaped element (3) for force transmission from the drive mechanism (4) to the tool (2). The rod-shaped element (3) is connected at the entry to the mixing chamber (5) with a diaphragm (6), which is a part of the wall (7) of the mixing chamber (5), and the rod-shaped element (3) can be put into a wobbling movement by the drive mechanism (4), so that its end located in the interior of the mixing chamber (5) performs a rotating movement. The tool is constituted by a number of grinding elements (22) or balls to be introduced into the mixing chamber (5).

  • Patent number: 7056009
    Abstract: A dispersing tool (1) is provided having a hollow shaft (2), which has an open, laterally slotted region on its free end (4) that faces away from a drive that is at the bottom in the position of use, and with an inner shaft (3), which can rotate in this hollow shaft (2) and which has a dispersing tool (5) interacting with this hollow shaft in the region of the slotted end of the hollow shaft (2). Upon rotation, the inner shaft creates a pumping effect directed towards the free end (4). To counteract the pumping effect of a smooth inner shaft in a direction towards the drive and simultaneously to prevent eccentricities in the profile of the inner shaft (3) and to guarantee simple manufacturing, the inner shaft (3) has at least one section (6) with an increasing cross section and the cross section increases from the drive side toward the free end (4).
