  • Publication number: 20220088553
    Abstract: The invention relates to improvements in the technical field of feeding solid materials to mixing devices. For this purpose, the solid-material feeding device, inter alia, is proposed. The solid-material feeding device comprises the slide, which can be moved between a first end position and a second end position through a conveying connection, which is arranged between a funnel and a solid-material outlet of the solid-material feeding device. By means of the slide, adhesions within the conveying connection can be loosened without having to remove the conveying connection.

  • Patent number: 10780406
    Abstract: The invention relates to a mixing device (1) for intermixing powder particles and/or granular particles, or a similar free-flowing solid with at least one liquid. The mixing device comprises a feed duct (5) for a solid, an inlet (17) for the liquid, at least one mixing implement (8) that is rotatable about an axis in a mixing chamber (7), and an outlet for the mixture. The device is characterised by a delivery pump (14) which is arranged between the inlet (17) and the mixing implement (8).

  • Patent number: 8985844
    Abstract: A device (1) that is used to disperse or homogenize according to the flow-through principle, that includes at least one tool having a rotor (2) and a stator (3), expediently, several tools of this type that are arranged in an axial manner behind one another, that are arranged in a chamber (4) through which a medium that is to be treated flows. The rotor(s) is/are driven by a motor (6) via a magnetic coupling (5) and the magnetic coupling (5) has a stationary separating can (9) between a drive-sided, rotationally-driven drive coupling part (7) and a driven coupling part (8), such that expensive cooled shaft seals can be avoided. The drive coupling part (7) that is on the drive side engages in a recess-shaped or hollow cylindrical driven coupling part (8) that is on the driven side and the separating can (9) is arranged between the coupling parts. As a result, the driven coupling part (8) and the separating can are cooled by the medium that is processed.
