A mixing device includes a container for receiving mixing material, with an emptying opening being arranged in the bottom thereof, and a closure cover for closing the emptying opening. The mixing device includes an emptying opening that can be easily and space-savingly opened and closed. The closure cover includes two closure cover portions which can be reciprocated relative to each other between a closed position in which the two closure cover portions are in contact with each other and together form the closure cover and an opened position in which the two closure cover portions are spaced from each other so that an opening is formed between the two closure cover portions for removal of the mixing material from the container.

Systems and methods for mixing are disclosed. A system for mixing can include a mixer vessel that defines a chamber. The system can include a first mixing blade to cause a first rotational movement to mix a material within the chamber. The system can include a second mixing blade to cause a second rotational movement to mix the material within the chamber of the mixer vessel. The system can include a mixing element to cause a third rotational movement to mix the material within the chamber of the mixer vessel. The system can include the first mixing blade to cause the first rotational movement independent from at least one of the second rotational movement and the third rotational movement.

A process for manufacturing pellets includes providing a first supply of a first material and a second supply of a binder including a second material in respective storage units. The first supply of the first material is mixed in a counter-current mixer with the second supply of the binder and water to produce a plurality of pellets. The mixing occurs simultaneously with pelletizing in the mixer. The plurality of pellets are discharged from the mixer.

The present invention provides a self-rotating asphalt emulsification mixing production apparatus, which relates to a technical field of construction engineering. It includes a rotatable inner tank, arranged in an outer tank, wherein the inner tank is provided with a blending shaft; a second blending blade, distributed on an outer wall of the inner tank; the emulsification tank is provided with a partition plate, an overfeed hole is provided at a center of the partition plate; a rotary shaft is provided at a center of the emulsification tank, and the rotary shaft is connected with the blending shaft through the overfeed hole; a first disk and a second disk are provided on the rotary shaft. The present invention can carry out more efficient mixing of the asphalt, better heating uniformity, and at the same time realize a integrated processing of the mixing and emulsification of asphalt and soap.

A machine for making liquid or semi-liquid products includes a thermal system using a main heat exchanger fluid, a compressor, a first heat exchanger and a pressure reducing element, all affected by circulation of the main heat exchanger fluid. A motor includes a drive shaft rotatable about a vertical axis. A production unit includes a first container with a processing chamber for making ice cream and a stirrer insertable into the first processing container. A second container includes a cavity rotatably housing the first container and which is fixed relative to a frame. Channels for circulating the main heat exchanger fluid are associated with the second container and define for the thermal system a second heat exchanger in which the main heat exchanger fluid circulates. A coupling mechanism couples the first container and drive shaft for transmission of motion from the motor to the first container.

A mixer is disclosed including a sealed mixing chamber having an interior, and a rotating mixing bowl within the interior of the sealed mixing chamber. A stand operatively supports the sealed mixing chamber. The stand includes: a foundation, a mixing chamber base movably coupled to the foundation and positioning the sealed mixing chamber at an angle relative to horizontal, and a linear actuator system configured to move the mixing chamber base relative to the foundation in at least one linear direction. A rotating mixing head is operatively positioned and sealingly disposed within the sealed mixing chamber, the rotating mixing head rotating within the rotating mixing bowl. The mixer and a related method provide for ceramic suspension mixing with reduced cooling and possibly without cooling the suspension.

Mixing device having a container rotatable about container axis, with emptying opening being arranged in the bottom thereof, rotatable mixing tool arranged in the interior of the container, and closure element for closing the emptying opening. The closure element can be pivoted about a pivot axis for opening and closing the emptying opening. With the emptying opening closed, the closure element has inner surface arranged within the container, outer surface arranged outside the container, and edge surface arranged opposite an edge surface of the emptying opening. The closure element, emptying opening and pivot axis are of such a configuration and arrangement that a point arranged furthest away from the pivot axis on the inner surface or the edge surface describes a circle in the pivotal movement, wherein the closure element is arranged within the circle and the edge surfaces of the emptying opening are arranged outside the circle.
