Abstract: A mixing apparatus for dry or wet ingredients is disclosed, which comprises an upwardly inclined trackway, and a mixing container mounted for rolling movement along the trackway. The trackway includes a scale at the lower end which permits the container and its contents to be weighed, and so that predetermined amounts of a number of ingredients may be loaded into the container. A power system is provided for pulling the container upwardly along the trackway, and such that the container is subjected to a rotary motion for mixing the ingredients, and a simultaneous linear transport to an elevated position. The container includes unique internal mixing vanes which facilitate mixing of the ingredients during rotation of the container, and which also permit substantially all of the mixed ingredients to be freely discharged by gravity at the elevated discharge location.
