Abstract: A mounting assembly is provided, including: a drive coupler shaped to engage a coupling member on a shaft positionable within a container defining an aperture to allow passage of the shaft; and a funnel positioned within the aperture to receive the drive coupler and guide the drive coupler to the coupling member. The assembly provides ergonomic advantages as the user is not required to lift the drive to reach the aperture.
Abstract: A mounting and coupling assembly for a mixer for in a container having an impeller connected to a drive shaft, in an assembly, which extends through an opening into the container. The assembly includes a lip mount to stabilize and support the mixer on the lip of said container. A cover secures said lip mount with threaded fasteners engaging complementary fasteners on the container neck and clamping the plate to the container lip. A primary objective of the invention is to allow the stable mounting of a mixing unit to bulk containers and allow easy and safe coupling of a power module to the mixing assembly.
