Abstract
The invention is related to a device for suspending particles in a fluid, wherein the mixing device includes a first magnet (1) rotating around a longitudinal axis (2), a mixing rod (4) attached to a mount (6), the mount including a second magnet (3), wherein the mount (6) moves in a substantially orthogonal motion to the longitudinal axis of the mixing rod (4) by the interaction of the rotating first magnet with the second magnet (3).
Claims14
A mixing device comprising:
- a first magnet (1) rotating around a longitudinal axis (2);
- a mixing rod (4) attached to a mount (6), the mount including a second magnet (3), wherein the mount (6) moves in a substantially orthogonal motion to the longitudinal axis (2) of the mixing rod (4) by an interaction of the rotating first magnet with the second magnet (3) wherein the orthogonal motion is accommodated by a plurality of joints disposed on at least two sides of the mount (6) and wherein the plurality of joints allows movement of the second magnet (3) only about a second axis which is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis (2).
