Definitions

  • the invention relates to a stirring element of an agitator for mixing and / or homogenizing or suspending fluid media. Furthermore, the invention relates to an agitator for mixing and / or homogenizing or suspending fluid media with at least two such Rlickorganen.
  • Agitators are used in a wide variety of applications. Examples of possible fields of application include the production of paints and varnishes or the production of beverages and foodstuffs. Also in the production of pharmaceutical products and cosmetics it regularly requires the use of agitators, so also in the paper and ceramic production. Depending on the particular field of application, different agitator arrangements are used for mixing and / or homogenizing or suspending the respective substances. Known are, for example, drum and container stirrers, which are arranged in or on the respective container, or self-supporting tripod stirrers. Even small to large-volume containers for storage or for the transport of mixtures may be equipped with a stirrer to prevent segregation during storage or transport. The agitator is adapted to the respective material to be stirred and the shape and size of the respective container.
  • Stirrers usually comprise a rotary shaft which can be driven by an electric motor, by means of which one or more stirring elements connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the rotary shaft are moved on a circular path. Used in a container with a flowable medium, the stirring elements are flowed around because of their movement of the medium. In dependence of the shape of the stirrers, their arrangement in the container and the speed at which the stirrers are moved, set in the material to be stirred certain flow conditions, which cause a thorough mixing of the material to be stirred.
  • the stirrers known in the prior art include continuously tubular body, which are flowed through by the mix.
  • cup stirrers have long been known. Such agitators subject the mix to large changes in flow velocity, resulting in relatively large mechanical stresses on the mix. For sensitive mixes such agitators are limited. Developments of these agitators often have relatively complicated built stirrers, but hold on the principle of flow through the agitator through the mix firmly.
  • the agitator comprises a shaft with arms extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft, each of which carries a stirring element at its free ends.
  • Each stirrer consists of a tubular body which is at least partially conical. The conical shape causes the flow cross-section of the tubular body in the flow direction, ie counter to the direction of rotation, reduced and accordingly causes an increase in the flow velocity of a flowing material to be stirred.
  • the longitudinal axis of the stirrer is also placed in the direction of rotation obliquely downwards.
  • the stirring elements are therefore flowed through in a laminar manner by the stirring material.
  • the flow is forced inside the stirrers by back pressure for reversal.
  • the resulting countercurrent should cause that even at low power consumption of the drive, ie at low speeds of movement of the stirring elements, a sweeping yet gentle stirring effect can be achieved.
  • a stirring body for a device for stirring flowable media the formation of which is to enable improved mixing of the material to be stirred.
  • the stirring body should be suitable for stirring or mixing highly viscous fluids or a highly viscous flowable material to be stirred.
  • the stirring body on an outer wall and a bottom at one end of the outer wall, wherein the bottom has at least one opening as a flow cross section for the stirred material.
  • a partial flow of the material to be stirred is detected, which undergoes a change in direction when hitting the ground.
  • the change in direction causes a turbulence of the material to be stirred, in particular laterally from and behind the stirring body.
  • the turbulence in turn causes a good mixing of the material to be stirred.
  • From the DE 10 2006 043 498 A1 is a dispersing machine for the production of powder mixtures with a counterparts formed rotor and stator element pair out, which is shaped so that a gap-shaped working volume is formed between the rotor and stator, which is traversed by the powder suspension during operation of the dispersing machine.
  • shear forces are introduced into the powder suspension via the rotor rotations, which effect a thorough mixing and / or homogenization of the powder suspension.
  • the proposed dispersing machine should be particularly suitable for the production of homogeneous suspensions in the hard metal and cermet production.
  • the aforementioned agitators are limited in terms of their applicable speed. At high speeds, the stirring effect drops drastically, Therefore, the power input is limited, which is disadvantageous, for example, when gassing, dispersing, emulsifying or powder feed.
  • the present invention seeks to provide an agitator or an agitator with such Rlickorganen that allows improved performance entry with a simple design.
  • the invention is thus fundamentally independent of the concept of flow-through stirrers.
  • the mix is excited by means of an acceleration and redirecting the flow generated on the vessel wall for mixing. It is basically worked with overpressure, ie with compressive forces.
  • Stirrers with ball-like stirrers in the context of the invention do not seem to be known.
  • stirrer In the stirrer according to the invention whose shape causes an overpressure in the direction of movement before the agitator, an acceleration of the mix outside the stirrer around, and a negative pressure in the mix in the direction of movement behind the stirrer. Since the mix is virtually non-compressible, and is very quickly passed from the overpressure area in front of the agitator in the negative pressure area behind the agitator, creates a suction or an expansion effect on the mix, which contributes to breaking the structure of the mix and promotes mixing.
  • the design of the agitator invention allows very close to the wall work without risk of damage to the container wall.
  • the stirrer according to the invention is easy to clean, especially since no mix can settle in the closed stirrers.
  • the agitator according to the invention enables improved gassing of the product because hardly larger gas bubbles are formed in the product because of the substantially non-directional flow.
  • stirring elements are preferably the same shape and the same size.
  • all stirrers are mounted by means of support arms at a distance from the rotary shaft of the agitator.
  • an agitator for mixing and / or homogenizing or suspending fluid media is proposed with at least two stirring elements according to the invention, wherein each stirring member is connected via a support arm with a hub for connection to a driven rotary shaft.
  • Preferred is a symmetrical to the axis of rotation of the agitator arrangement of the stirring elements. It is furthermore preferred that all stirring elements are arranged at the same distance from the axis of rotation of the agitator.
  • the agitator of Fig. 1 comprises three stirrers 1 according to the invention, each of which is connected via a support arm 3 with a hub 2.
  • the stirring elements 1 are spherical. They are formed by spherical hollow bodies of metal or plastic, which are each attached to a radially outward end of a support arm 3.
  • the hub 2 is coaxially connected to the rotary shaft of the agitator, not shown, for common rotation about the axis of rotation of the agitator.
  • the stirring members therefore move in operation on a common orbit around the rotary shaft.
  • the invention is not on the in the Fig. 1 to 4 illustrated embodiment limited.
  • the number of stirrers 1 and their cross-sectional shape and their arrangement vary from each other.
  • the invention is not limited to the dimensions chosen in the drawing. The specific dimensions result in each case depending on the intended application and are particularly adapted to the size of the container receiving the stirring.
