Abstract: A mixer for granular materials has a mixing container consisting of a first mixing container portion and a second mixing container portion detachably connected to one another. The mixing container has a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis. A support frame is provided in which the mixing container is supported so as to be pivotable about the transverse axis and rotatable about the longitudinal axis. The mixing container has a first position in which mixing is performed and in which the second mixing container portion is positioned above the first mixing container portion. The mixing container has a second position in which the second container portion, after completion of mixing, contains the mixed material and is detachable from the first mixing container portion.
