Abstract: A mixing device includes a container for receiving mixing material, with an emptying opening being arranged in the bottom thereof, and a closure cover for closing the emptying opening. The mixing device includes an emptying opening that can be easily and space-savingly opened and closed. The closure cover includes two closure cover portions which can be reciprocated relative to each other between a closed position in which the two closure cover portions are in contact with each other and together form the closure cover and an opened position in which the two closure cover portions are spaced from each other so that an opening is formed between the two closure cover portions for removal of the mixing material from the container.

Abstract: A conversion device for converting linear movement in a stationary system into rotary movement about a pivot axis in a system which rotates about an axis of rotation that is not identical or parallel to the pivot axis. The conversion device has a lift element and a lift device with which the lift element can be moved with translatory movement relative to the stationary system. The lift element has first and second lift element portions connected together by a rotary bearing so that the first lift element portion can be rotated relative to the second lift element portion about the axis of the rotary bearing. The first lift element portion is connected to the lift device and the second lift element portion is connected to the conversion device. The conversion device is connected to a shaft positioned on the pivot axis so that a linear movement of the second lift element portion is converted into a rotary movement of the shaft about the pivot axis.
