The present invention relates to a container for a stirrer used in a stirrer stirring objects through a centrifugal force. The container for the stirrer includes a container body of which the top is opened and in which a receiving space is formed, an outer lid coupled to the top of the container body, and a crushing unit including a supporting member disposed in the receiving space, and a crushing member extending outward from the supporting member and crushing and stirring the objects received in the receiving space. Thus, nanoparticle-sized objects can be rapidly crushed and stirred without agglomeration.

Horizontal Fluent Material Dispenser

A horizontal fluent material dispenser for the even dispensing of a metered quantity of powder. A hopper holds the powder. The hopper has a mixing portion with rotating beaters. A horizontal conduit is coupled to the hopper and receives powder from the hopper. A screw conveyor—or auger—within the conduit transfers the material through the horizontal conduit. A knife assembly, disposed at the distal longitudinal end of the screw conveyor, breaks off a continuous and even flow of powdered material out the discharge opening. A modular screw conveyor assembly is disclosed for changing the material dispensing rate range without changing the conduit diameter. A dual drive mechanism is also disclosed for independent adjustment of the rotating beater speed and the screw conveyor.

20210402648 · 2021-12-30 ·

The present disclosure discloses a meshing-type rubber internal mixer and a working method thereof. The meshing rubber internal mixer includes a frame mechanism, a mixing mechanism, and an unloading mechanism. The mixing mechanism is on the upper side of the unloading mechanism. The mixing mechanism and the unloading mechanism are in the frame mechanism. An internal mixing chamber is of a closed structure through first automatic telescopic plates and second automatic telescopic plates. The gap between a first meshing-type rotor and a second meshing-type rotor is small, a material is compressed to enter the space between the first meshing-type rotor and the second meshing-type rotor to be extruded with an internal mixing chamber wall. The material is flaky in the internal mixing chamber, so that the material produces great strain deformation, thereby achieving excellent dispersing and mixing effects.
