Abstract
A mixer (1) having a measuring device (5) for determining a torque which can be applied using a mixing device drive (3) of the mixer to a medium to be mixed. The mixing device drive (3) is mounted to pivot within the housing (2) of the mixer (1) and is supported at least indirectly against at least one rotational direction of its two rotational directions. With the aid of the measuring device (5), a reaction force of this at least one support can be detected and from this, the torque applied by the mixing device drive can be determined.
Claims16
A mixer (1), comprising:
- a housing (2);
- a mixing device drive (3) arranged in the housing (2), the mixing device drive (3) being configured for measuring a torque introduced into a medium to be mixed by said mixing device drive (3) being mounted to pivot about a pivot axis (4) within the housing (2);
- a support that at least indirectly supports the mixing device drive (3) against at least one of first and second rotational directions (Pf 1) of the mixing device drive (3);
- a measuring device (5) configured to detect a reaction force of said support;
- and
- a holding arm (7) on which the mixing device drive (3) is arranged, the holding arm (7) being mounted to pivot within the housing (2).
