Mixing device 1, dosing container and mixing hopper for mixing a synthetic starting material with an additive, in particular a granular additive or additive in powder form, comprising a mixing housing 10 with an inlet 14 for allowing the substances into a mixing chamber 12 bounded by the mixing housing and an outlet 16 for discharging the substances from the mixing chamber in mixed form, wherein a rotor body 11 is provided on a rotatable shaft 17 in the mixing chamber and comprises on a side a number of rotor arms 18 extending parallel to the shaft in the direction of an opposite wall of the mixing housing 10, and wherein the opposite wall of the mixing housing is provided with a number of stator arms 19 extending parallel to the shaft in the direction of the rotor body, and wherein a mixing hopper is provided having an infeed side for receiving a flow of the substances for mixing and an outfeed side which is in open communication with the inlet of the mixing housing 10, and wherein a dividing body is provided between the infeed side and outfeed side in order to divide the flow of the substances for mixing into a number of at least substantially equal part-flows.
Dosing container for application in a mixing device for mixing a synthetic starting material with an additive, in particular a granular additive or additive in powder form, comprising a space bounded by a container wall for containing a supply of a substance for mixing and carrying a dosed quantity of the substance therefrom to a mixing housing of the mixing device, which space is in air-exchanging communication with an ambient air via an air filter, and wherein the dosing container is provided with measuring means which are able and configured to measure a weight change in the container, characterized in that the dosing container comprises further aerating means which are able and configured to allow air into the dosing container.
Mixing hopper for application in a mixing device for mixing a synthetic starting material with an additive, in particular a granular additive or additive in powder form, which mixing hopper is open on an infeed side in order to receive a flow of the substances for mixing and leaves an opening on an outfeed side in order to discharge the substances to a mixing housing of the mixing device, and wherein a dividing body is provided between the infeed side and outfeed side in order to divide the flow of the substances for mixing into a number of at least substantially equal part-flows, characterized in that a rotatable stirring body is provided between the dividing body and the outfeed side which is able to rotate through the part-flows with a stirring part in a plane transversely of a flow direction of the substances for mixing.
Mixing device for mixing a synthetic starting material with an additive, in particular a granular additive or additive in powder form, comprising a mixing housing with an inlet for allowing the substances into a mixing chamber bounded by the mixing housing and an outlet for discharging the substances from the mixing chamber in mixed form, wherein a rotor body is provided on a rotatable shaft in the mixing chamber and comprises on a side a number of rotor arms extending parallel to the shaft in the direction of an opposite wall of the mixing housing, and wherein the opposite wall of the mixing housing is provided with a number of stator arms extending parallel to the shaft in the direction of the rotor body, characterized in that a mixing hopper is provided having an infeed side for receiving a flow of the substances for mixing and an outfeed side which is in open communication with the inlet of the mixing housing, and wherein a dividing body is provided between the infeed side and outfeed side in order to divide the flow of the substances for mixing into a number of at least substantially equal part-flows.
Mixing device as claimed in one or more of the foregoing claims, characterized in that the rotor arms are positioned on an imaginary circular line at a regular distance from each other and follow the imaginary circular line during rotation of the rotor body, and that the stator arms are positioned at a distance from the imaginary circular line wherein a shortest possible distance between a stator arm and a passing rotor arm amounts to a maximum of 10 mm.
