More specifically, the present invention pertains to a batch-type exothermic reactor for performing vinyl chloride polymerization while controlling the internal temperature of an exothermic reaction chamber. Even more specifically, the present invention pertains to an invention wherein the structure of a reflux condenser among jacket, baffle, and reflux condenser devices responsible for heat removal in a reactor is designed to improve productivity and polymerization efficiency.

A mixing assembly and a mixing device configured to mix a bakery, pastry or cosmetic preparation includes a mixing tank configured to receive ingredients intended to be mixed to form the preparation; a first mixing tool configured to be immersed at least partially in the mixing tank and configured to mix the ingredients and/or the preparation. The first mixing tool is configured to be driven in rotation around a first axis of rotation. A second mixing tool is configured to be immersed at least partially in the mixing tank and configured to mix the ingredients and/or the preparation, the second mixing tool being configured to be driven in rotation around a second axis of rotation. The first and second axes of rotation are substantially coaxial.

A method of mixing a fluid includes at least partially unfolding a collapsible bag bounding a compartment, the collapsible bag containing in the compartment at least a portion of an elongated drive line or drive shaft and an impeller secured to the drive line or drive shaft, the impeller including a plurality of impeller blades that are pivotable relative to the drive line or drive shaft, at least one of the plurality of impeller blades being in a collapsed position. A fluid is delivered into the compartment of the collapsible bag. The drive line or drive shaft is then rotated so as to rotate the impeller within the compartment and mix the fluid therein, the at least one of the plurality of impeller blades pivoting from the collapsed position to an expanded position as the impeller is rotated within the compartment.

A method in which a medium viscous to highly viscous fluid and/or a medium viscous to highly viscous suspension are/is mixed by means of an agitator device that is driven by a drive shaft, wherein

the fluid and/or the suspension are/is brought into a multi-dimensional flow by means of a close-clearance stirring blade (14) of the agitator device, and a flow resistance is minimized along a shaft direction in a shaft proximity.

An agitator includes a central shaft, a radially spaced array of vanes and a shroud encircling the central shaft so as to intersect the vanes perpendicular to the vanes' depth and along their length, thus defining an inner passageway between the shroud and the central shaft and an outer passageway between the vanes, radially extending outwardly of the shroud.

A fluid mixing system includes a container, such as a flexible bag, bounding a compartment. A flexible drive line is disposed within the compartment, the drive line having a first end rotatably connected to a first end of the container and an opposing second end rotatably connected to a second end of the container. At least one mixing element, such as an impeller, is coupled with the flexible drive line. Rotation of the drive line facilitates rotation of the impeller within the container.

The invention pertains to a rotary mixer and disperser head consisting of a shaft to which is connected a mixing chamber that is to be disposed into a vat or the like for dispersing, dissolving or blending of solids liquids or gasses with other liquids. The mixing chamber has secured to its upper and lower ends a plurality of impeller blades which have an end thereof located outside the mixing chamber to direct material into the mixing chamber and out through openings in the side wall of the mixing chamber during the mixing and dispersing thereof. The mixer and disperser head also comprises shear arms having a sharpened leading edge, thereby providing an additional initial shear zone. The specific mixing chamber and its configuration provide for a very efficient mixing operation.

A molded product production system includes at least two measuring feeders configured to simultaneously adjust an amount of a discharged powdery material to a target value and feed the powdery material, a mixer configured to mix at least two powdery materials fed from the measuring feeders to obtain mixed powdery materials, a filler configured to fill, with the mixed powdery materials obtained by the mixer, a die bore of a compression-molding machine configured to compress a powdery material to mold a molded product, a sensor configured to measure a mixing degree of the mixed powdery materials obtained by the mixer, and a controller configured to adjust an amount of at least one of the powdery materials fed by the measuring feeders, or motion speed of a mixing member configured to agitate powdery materials in the mixer in accordance with the mixing degree of the mixed powdery materials measured by the sensor.
