In the bottom of the tank there was submerged a bag of salt (sodium chloride). As the mixing proceeds the salt enters into solution with the water, thereby permitting an increased flow of electricity in the circuit with the measuring instruments. Tests were made at different speeds and it was found that substantially 150 R. P. M. of the propeller or mixing element gave the best mixing speed. 7 It was found thatit actually took longer to mix at a higher speed than at a lower speed because at the higher speed certain materials do not have suflicient time to flow into the propellers for mixing. With the slower speed of rotation the mixing element actually beats the material which flows into the spaces between the blades.
High speed mixing is not only usually unsatisfactory for the reasons just described, but there is also an increase in cost to the user because the horse-power required to drive the mixing element increases substantially in the. ratio ofthe cube of theincrease in speed. Thus, doubling the diameter of a propeller. increases its effective area four times. For example, assuming a five-inch propeller having an efiective area oftWenty-five square, inches, whenthe diameter is increased to ten inches, the effective area increases to one hundred square. inches. It would thus appear thatincreasing the effectivearea ofthe propeller would result in anjincrease of four times the amount of liquid mixed at the same speed of rotation of the propeller.., With an increase in the. diameter of the propell-erthe power requirement, however, is increased tothe ratio of Thus, for example; if the five-inch propeller mentioned above required a one-quarter horse power 2,610,513 7' vii If 4 of this disclosure and be pointed out in the appended claims.

motor to rotate the same under a given load at I a given speed, it would require thirty-two times I the old H. P. or eight horse-power to drive the ten-inch propeller at the same speed. In accordance with the present construction the mixing'speed is where possible and where dictated by thenature of the ingredients being mixed maintainedat substantially 150 R. P. M. This enables the use of relatively large propellers or mixing elements with a relatively small motor. Better mixing is thus obtained at lower power cost.
"Another object herein lies in the provision of a device of the class described which by reason of-the the proper balancing and arrangement of the parts permits the same to be secured to tanks or vessels of relatively light construction without additionally reinforcing the edge thereof which supports the mixing attachment.
' The underslung and offset position of 'the motor removes it from the path of fumes from the mixture which might have a harmful effect. I Another object-of the present invention lies in the provision of simple means for the declutching of the transmission so that the power to the main drive shaft or propeller shaft may be disconnected. This permits the motor to continue operating. without breaking the electrical circuit thereto. Thus, the electrical switch for the motor may be substantially'removed from the location of, the device and brushless motors which are relatively lower in cost, may be used instead of explosion-proof motors.

The movable frame I2 includes a body 3|, gen erally vertically arranged, which is provided at the lower rear edge thereof with a mounting plate 32. The mounting plate 32 serves as a'base to which the mounting bracket 33 of the motor I3 may be connected as by means of a nut and bolt 34., The top wall v35 of the movable frame I2 above the body 2i is substantially coextensive in width with the guard element I5 (see Fig. 3) and is provided withfour tapped orifices 36'.

Operation slipping of the member I84 when liquids of a high viscosity are being mixed.
To assemble the second embodiment of the invention, the movable frame with its members, and the stationary frame are each assembled separately and then joined by means of the pin I28 and the declutching means I20.
To assemble the movable frame II2, the adjusting screw is engaged with the fork member I86 and held in place by the set screw I83. The main shaft II'I may now be passed through the orifice223 in the top wall I6! engaging the an- .nular collar I84 and coming to its operating posi- 'tion when the enlarged portion of the shaft II'I .contacts the bearing Ml. The bearing I44 may :now be forced into position and the locking disc 3260 made secure to the movable frame II2 by means of the screws 252. The chuck means II6 and the collar I96 may be placed upon the shaft H1 at this time and the. mixing element shaft zII8, with the mixing element H9, can then be inserted into place.
The stationary frame I I I may be assembled by mounting the motor H3 on the bottom flange I88 and securing the driving member 161 to the motor shaft. The barrel 206 of the declutching means may now be screwed into place. At this time the stationary frame and movable frame may be joined by means of the pivot pin I28 and the spring 2H] inserted within the barrel 206 of the declutching means I26 and retained in place by the end caps 2I2 and H4. The spring 2I0 'is hooked on to the caps 2I2 and 2I4.
I wish it to be understood that I do not desire to be limited to the exact details of construction 8 shown anddescrib'ed, for obvious modifications will occur to aperson skilled in the art; 7
I claim: 1. A mixer comprising: a first frame; a second frame; said first and second frames being pivotally interconnected; a main shaft journaled in the second frame and having an impeller at one terminus thereof; a collar; said collar being reciprocably slideable along said shaft, and being keyed to said shaft; a collar engaging member; a screw threadedly engaged by said collar engaging member; said collar engaging member being reciprocably movable, along said screw by rotation of said screw; a cone rotatably mounted on the first frame and engaging said collar; and
declutching means; said declutching means acting to separate the cone from the collar; the axis of said cone and main shaft having a non-parallel relationship with respect to each other; said declutching means maintaining said cone and said collar in engagement by first resilient means, and having a second positive means for separating said cone and said collar against said first mentioned'resilient means.
2. A mixer comprising: a firstframe; a second frame; said first andsecond frames being rotatably interconnected; a main shaft journaled in the second frame, said main shaft having a keyway; said keyway being arranged axially in said shaft; a collar; said collar having a key and being reciprocably slideable along said shaft; a collar engaging member; a screw threadedly engaged by said collar engaging member; said collar engaging member being reciprocably movable along said screw by rotation of said screw; a cone rotatably mounted on said first frame and engaging'said collar; the axes of said'cone and said main shaft being disposed at an angle with respect to each other; and declutching means; said declutching means serving to rotate said first frame with respect to said second frame, whereby said cone is disengaged from said collar; said declutching means including a spring. for'maintaining said coneandsaid collar in resilient engagement, and a. shaft threadedly engaged upon said first frame and; bearing against said second frame, rotation of which serves to separate said collar and said cone against the resilient actio of said spring. g
3. A mixer comprising: a first frame; a second frame; said first and second frames being pivotally interconnected; a main shaft journaled inthe second frame and having an impeller at oneterminus thereof; a collar; said collar bein reciprocably slidable along said shaft, and being keyed to said shaft; a collar engaging member; a screw threadedly engaged by said collar engaging member; said collar engaging member being reciprocably movable along said screw by rotation of said screw; a cone rotatably mounted in a shaft bearing on the second frame and resiliently engaging said collar; said shaft bearing in turn being pivotally mounted for rotation rotation against the resilient action of said belt, whereby said cone may become disengaged from said collar.
