  • MIXING DRUM
    Publication number: 20240278459
    Abstract: A mixing drum includes a body defining a discharge aperture, a head coupled to the body opposite the discharge aperture, and a mixing element. The body includes an inner layer defining an interior surface of the body and an outer layer defining an exterior surface of the body. The head includes a connecting flange extending between the inner layer and the outer layer of the body. The head and the body define a volume. The mixing element is positioned within the volume and coupled to the body.

  • Mixing drum
    Patent number: 10843379
    Abstract: A mixing drum includes a body defining a head aperture and a discharge aperture opposite the head aperture, a head coupled to the body and extending across the head aperture, a bearing member coupled to the body and defining a bearing surface surrounding the body, and a mixing element positioned within the volume and coupled to the body. The head and the body define a volume configured to contain a fluid mixture. The mixing element is configured to drive the fluid mixture toward the head when the drum is rotated in a first direction. The mixing element is configured to drive the fluid mixture towards the discharge aperture when the mixing drum is rotated in a second direction opposite the first direction. The head is made from a first material, and the body is made from a second material having a lesser density than the first material.
