  • Publication number: 20230321615
    Abstract: A static mixer includes two or more mixing segments, each mixing segment including an inlet section, an outlet section oppositely disposed to the inlet section, a longitudinal axis defined between the inlet section and the outlet section, a plurality of mixing passages and a common distributor connected to each of the plurality of mixing passages of the mixing segment. The common distributor is arranged at the inlet section. Furthermore, inlets of the passages of the mixing segments form an inlet arrangement at the distributor of the corresponding mixing segment and outlets of the passages of the individual mixing segments form an outlet arrangement at the outlet section of the corresponding mixing segment. Thereby, the outlet arrangement is different from the inlet arrangement.

  • Publication number: 20200346176
    Abstract: A static mixer for mixing a multi-component material includes mixing segments arranged one after another along a longitudinal axis. Some of the mixing segments include elongate inlets arranged substantially parallel to one another and elongate outlets arranged parallel to one another, with a respective elongate inlet connected to a respective elongate outlet via a respective passage forming a flow path. The elongate outlets arranged such that an elongate extent is rotated by an angle of rotation of at least 45° about the longitudinal axis with respect to an elongate extent of the elongate inlets, with the elongate outlets being connected to inlets of directly adjacent mixing segments. A blocking element blocks a part of the flow paths between the elongate outlets and the elongate inlets.

  • Publication number: 20200324255
    Abstract: A mixing segment for a static mixer includes inlets and outlets connected by a passage to deflect respective part flows of a material from the inlet to the outlet. Each of the outlets arranged such that an extent thereof is rotated by an angle of rotation of at least 45°. A first extent of the passages gradually reduces between an inlet and a constriction of the passage, and a second extent of the passage gradually increases between the constriction and the outlet. The reduction in size of the first extent or the increase in size of the second extent is formed by two walls of the passage that are inclined with respect to one another and with respect to the longitudinal axis of the mixing segment, with at least a part of the walls inclined with respect to the longitudinal axis formed by a curved part surface.

  • Patent number: 10786790
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a static mixer for mixing together at least two components. The static mixer comprises a mixer housing; a mixing element having an upstream end with at least two entry openings and a downstream end, the mixing element being arranged at least partly within the mixer housing; a mixing head having at least two inlets provided at an input side and at least two outlets provided at an output surface, wherein each of the at least two inlets is in fluid communication with one of the at least two outlets; and a separating wall disposed between the output surface and the upstream end of the mixing element for separating the components leaving the outlets. The separating wall comprises a free downstream edge which is disposed with respect to at least one of the entry openings so as to allow at least partial flows of the components separated by the separating wall to combine after exceeding the downstream edge and to jointly enter said at least one of the entry openings.

  • Patent number: 8684593
    Abstract: The static mixer (1) includes at least one vane pair (2; 2a, 2b) for the generation of a flow swirl (300) in the direction (30) of a passage flow (3). Edges of the vanes at the front at the leading side are perpendicular to the passage flow and parallel to a height of the passage (10). Onflow surfaces following downstream are bent out in a concave manner and in opposite senses. Each vane (2a, 2b) is formed as an aerodynamically designed body which includes an end wall (20), a convex side wall (21) and a concave side wall (22). The end wall has a convex shape or a shape of a leading edge. The vane cross-sections perpendicular to the side walls in particular have similar shapes to cross-sections of aeroplane wings.
