  • Patent number: 9174218
    Abstract: An apparatus (100) has a batch container (110) having one or more openings (120) for the introduction of the substances to be processed, one or more openings (130) for the discharge of the processed substances, and a process chamber (140) having a rotor (150) and a stator (160), the rotor (150) mounted rotatably about a rotational axis (155) with respect to the stator (160) for the purpose of processing substances introduced into the process chamber (140). The stator (160) has a working surface (161) which is inclined at an angle W1 in relation to the rotational axis (155) of the rotor (150) and the rotor (150) has a working surface (151) which is inclined at an angle W2>W1 in relation to the rotational axis (155) of the rotor (150), such that the working surfaces (161, 151) of stator (160) and rotor (150) are disposed at an acute angle relative to each other.

  • Patent number: 8721168
    Abstract: In the case of a homogenizer device (100) for dispersing and/or homogenizing liquid to viscous substances, having a container (110) having one or more openings for introducing the substances to be processed, which has an opening for feeding the substances into a processing unit (120) in the central region of its bottom, which opening contains two gear rims (130, 140), which can be driven independent of one another, are disposed concentrically and configured in circular shape, and are separated from one another by way of a predetermined interstice, whereby the substances are guided from a central region, through the interstice, into a peripheral region of the gear rims, formation of cavitation is prevented, to the greatest possible extent, in that a conveyance device (150) is additionally provided in the processing unit (120), which device conveys the substances in the direction of the gear rims (130, 140), under pressure.

  • Patent number: 8215824
    Abstract: In the case of a homogenizer device for dispersing and/or homogenizing substances capable of flow, having a container having one or more inlet openings for introducing the substances to be homogenized, which container has a container outlet opening for feeding the substances into a processing unit disposed below the bottom, in a central region of its bottom, which unit contains two gear rims, which are mounted to rotate independent of one another, are disposed concentrically and configured in circular shape, and are separated from one another by way of a predetermined interstice, effective homogenization, which can be adapted to a predetermined substance mixture, is achieved in that the drive shafts of a first gear rim and of a second gear rim of the processing unit are disposed perpendicular to the transport direction of the substances that leave the outlet opening, in each instance.

  • Patent number: 7331540
    Abstract: In a device for the dispersion of, in particular, low-viscosity to high-viscosity mixtures of substances, including a container having one or more openings for introducing the substances to be dispersed and one or more openings for discharging the dispersed substances, and at least one rotor and one stator, the at least one rotor being mounted for rotation relative to the stator about an axis of rotation, for the purpose of dispersing the substances that have been introduced into the container, fast and precisely metered introduction of substances at a controlled rate is achieved in that the stator is mounted for reciprocation in the direction of the rotation axis of the rotor and can be displaced by a displacement device within a specified range of movement and can be locked in an arbitrary position.
