Patent number: 10946349Abstract: A mixing element for a static mixer for installation into a tubular mixer housing has a longitudinal axis along which a plurality of installation bodies are arranged behind one another. A first installation body has a first wall element which extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis and a first side wall and a second side wall which is arranged opposite the first side wall. A deflection element is arranged adjacent to the first wall element and has a deflection surface extending in the transverse direction to the wall element at both sides of the wall element. A first opening is provided in the deflection surface at the side which faces the first side wall of the first wall element.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2017Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: SULZER MIXPAC AGInventors: Volker Linne, Sasan Habibi-Naini

Patent number: 10293311Abstract: A mixing element for a static mixer for installation into a tubular mixer housing has a longitudinal axis along which at least one first and one second installation body are arranged behind one another. An inlet element is provided which is arranged upstream of the first installation body, wherein the inlet element and the first installation body are connected to one another via a connection element. The inlet element has a body which can be sealingly taken up at the peripheral side in the mixer housing. The body has a first inlet passage and a second inlet passage, wherein the first inlet passage has a first entry opening and a first exit opening, wherein the second inlet passage has a second entry opening and a second exit opening so that the corresponding component can be conducted through the corresponding inlet passage.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2012Date of Patent: May 21, 2019Assignee: SULZER MIXPAC AGInventors: Volker Linne, Sasan Habibi-Naini

Patent number: 9656224Abstract: A dynamic mixer for a plurality of fluid components contains a housing and a rotor element which is rotatably arranged in the housing, with the housing having an inlet opening for at least one respective component and having at least one outlet opening. A ring-shaped intermediate space is provided between the rotor element and the housing in which a mixing element connected to the rotor element is arranged. The mixing element has a vane element which is formed as a directing element for conveying the components from the inlet opening to the outlet opening. The vane element is a directing element and has a directing surface which has a concave curvature with respect to the outlet opening and is further remote from the outlet opening at the onflow side than at the outflow side.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2012Date of Patent: May 23, 2017Assignee: SULZER MIXPAC AGInventors: Volker Linne, Andreas Hiemer, Florian Husler

Patent number: 9522366Abstract: A dynamic mixer (1, 100) for a plurality of fluid components contains a housing (2, 102) and a rotor element (3, 103) which is rotatably arranged in the housing, with the housing having an inlet opening (12, 13, 112, 113) for at least one respective component and having at least one outlet opening (20, 120). A ring-shaped intermediate space (15, 115) is provided between the rotor element and the housing in which a mixing element (7, 107) connected to the rotor element (3, 103) is arranged. The housing includes a first antechamber (21, 121) and a main chamber (22, 122). A second antechamber (17, 117) is provided which is arranged downstream of the first antechamber (21, 121) so that the first antechamber (21, 121) can be flowed through by the components before the components enter into the second antechamber (17, 117).Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2012Date of Patent: December 20, 2016Assignee: SULZER MIXPAC AGInventors: Volker Linne, Andreas Hiemer, Florian Husler
