Abstract
A mixing apparatus having a mixer unit (7) which includes a cup-shaped stator (24, 33) and a rotor (17) located in the mixing chamber (18). Two inputs (6, 8) and an output (13) are provided. The mixing chamber (18) is divided into a plurality of mixing regions by a separating disc (20). Inner blades (21) and outer blades (22) are provided. An edge rail (37) is positioned in the plane of the separating disk (20), between the inner (21) and outer (22) blades. The stator (24, 33) has a different configuration in the various mixing areas of the mixing chamber (18). As a result, different yield and mixing ratios can be obtained in the mixing areas of the mixing chamber (18).
Claims9
An apparatus for mixing substances, said apparatus comprising:
- a mixing chamber (18), said mixing chamber having a plurality of separate mixing regions;
- a rotor (17) disposed in said mixing chamber (18), said rotor including a partition plate (20), inner blades (21) and outer blades (22), said partition plate (20) defining a plane and dividing said mixing chamber into said plurality of separate mixing regions;
- an edge rail (37) positioned in the plane of said partition plate (20) between said inner blades (21) and outer blades (22);
- a cup-shaped stator (33) disposed in said mixing chamber (18), said stator (33) having a wall (34), said wall (34) including a plurality of holes (35) and terminating at said edge rail (37);
- a first product inlet (6) into said mixing chamber (18) located at one side of said partition plate (20);
- a second product inlet (8) into said mixing chamber (18);
- and
- a product outlet (13) operatively associated with said partition plate (20) and located at the other side of said partition plate (20).
An apparatus for mixing substances, said apparatus comprising:
- a mixing chamber (18), said mixing chamber having a plurality of separate mixing regions;
- a rotor (17) disposed in said mixing chamber (18), said rotor having a partition plate (20), inner blades (21), and outer blades (22), said partition plate defining a plane and dividing said mixing chamber into said plurality of separate mixing regions;
- an edge rail (37) positioned between said inner (21) and outer blades (22);
- a cup-shaped stator (24) disposed in said mixing chamber (18), said stator having a wall (26) for closing said stator, said wall (26) includes two adjacent rows (28, 30) of holes (29, 31), said two rows of holes extending to said edge rail (37), the dimensions of said holes (29) of one row (28) being different from the dimensions of said holes (31) of said other row (30);
- a first product inlet (6) located at one side of said partition plate (20);
- a second product inlet (8) into said mixing chamber (18);
- a product outlet (13) operatively associated with said partition plate (20) and located at the other side of said partition plate (20);
- and
- a circumferentially continuous intermediate rail (32) located between said two adjacent rows (28, 30) of holes (29, 31) in the plane of said partition plate (20).
