A rotary machine for acting on a process fluid includes an impeller, a shaft, a drive, a seal and a flush casing. The impeller acts on the process fluid and is mounted on the shaft. The drive is connected to the shaft and rotates the shaft and the impeller about an axial direction. The seal has a sealing element sealing the shaft during rotation of the shaft. The flush casing receives a flushing fluid for flushing the sealing element, and delimits an annular flush chamber extending about the sealing element. The flush casing includes a bushing surrounding the sealing element and delimits a radial leakage gap arranged between the sealing element and the bushing. The bushing delimits an axial leakage gap between the impeller and the bushing, and the width of the axial leakage gap in the axial direction is adjustable.

Disclosed is a stirring device (D) including a screw shaft (1) driven by a drive unit, the screw shaft (1) being guided with respect to a body by way of a bearing, the stirring device furthermore including a seal (8) rigidly secured to the body and in contact with the ball joint (7) so as to ensure sealing with respect to the fluid to be stirred. The seal (8) is mounted on a seal holder (9), the seal holder (9) including a contact region (10) and being able to take up two positions, a first, operating position in which the seal (8) is in contact with the ball joint (7), and a second, maintenance position in which the contact region (10) is in contact with the ball joint (7).

Disclosed is an automatic sealant production line, including a sealant preparation apparatus and a packaging apparatus. The sealant preparation apparatus includes a material storage device, a liquid storage device, a material sending device, a lateral material feeding device, a first-order screw unit, a first liquid feeding device, a heat exchanger, a second-order screw unit, a pigment feeding device, a cooler and a buffer tank device. The packaging apparatus includes a filling device and a packaging device.

The disclosure relates to a two-component mixing capsule for intake and for mixing of two compositions with a capsule housing having a discharge spout at its front end, wherein the mixing capsule comprises a first mixing chamber and a second mixing chamber, wherein the two mixing chambers may be separated from each other for storage or for transport, by the first mixing chamber being rotatable into a first position in which the first mixing chamber is separated from mixing chamber, by a rotatably mounted handhold element, the rotational axis of which is approximately perpendicularly arranged to the longitudinal axis of the mixing capsule. The two mixing chambers form a common mixing chamber by rotating the first mixing chamber into a second position in which the central axes of the first and second mixing chamber are substantially coaxially arranged, wherein the composition may be discharged after mixing by attaching a squeezing piston.

Systems and methods for bearing housings are disclosed. A labyrinth seal bearing housing includes: a first seal element that is structured and arranged to be connected to a wall of a mixing vessel; a second seal element that is structured and arranged to be connected to a rotatable shaft; and a bearing support that is structured and arranged to be connected to the first seal element. The second seal element is configured to rotate relative to the first seal element and the bearing support. The first seal element and the second seal element are structured and arranged to create a tortuous flow path between an exterior and an interior of the mixing vessel.

A mixing device for mixing a liquid plastics component with a gas, includes a liquid feed, a gas feed, and a discharge opening for discharging the mixture generated in the mixing device. Each of the liquid feed, gas feed, and discharge opening is connected to a mixing chamber in which a rotatable agitator device is arranged. A shaft for driving the agitator device projects out of the mixing chamber, and the mixing chamber is sealed off, in the region of the shaft, by a seal. On that side of the seal which is averted from the mixing chamber, there is a reservoir which is connected to the liquid feed and which is connected by a passage to the mixing chamber.

A mixing machine includes a mixing head and at least one connection means for connecting a mixing container containing material to be mixed to said mixing head for forming a closed mixing container. The mixing head, as part of a pivotable assembly, is pivotably mounted with respect to a frame such that the closed mixing container formed from the mixing head and the mixing container can be pivoted relative to the frame for performing the mixing process. The mixing head carries at least one rotationally-driven mixing tool. The mixing head comprises a head plate having a connecting flange molded thereon which is configured as an annular disc and comprises a planar contact surface. At least two ring seals of differing diameters are arranged in said contact surface of the connecting flange at a spacing between each other, such that mixing containers with different connection diameters of their mixing head side can be connected to said mixing head. The at least one connection means is configured for gripping mixing containers which differ in the diameter of their connection sides.
