Abstract
The invention relates to a mixing element for a flowable substance, comprising a body enclosing a cavity, wherein the cavity has at least one opening and the cavity and the opening are located relative to the body such that a fluid flow of the flowable substance out of the cavity through the opening transfers a torque to the mixing element. The invention further relates to the use of a tube or hose section as such a mixing element and a mixing device comprising such a mixing element, a container, and a sound source coupled thereto for generating an oscillating pressure.
Claims27
A stirring element for a flowable substance, with a body enclosing a cavity, the cavity having at least one opening, and the cavity and the opening being arranged relative to the body such that a fluid stream of the flowable substance emerging from the cavity through the opening transfers a torque to the stirring element.
Use of a tube section or hose section as stirring element, the interior of the tube section or hose section forming a cavity which has an opening at least at one end, and the cavity and the opening being arranged relative to the tube section or hose section such that a fluid stream emerging from the cavity through the opening transfers a torque to the tube section or hose section.
