Abstract:
A device for simultaneously mixing and frothing a liquid incorporates a container and an insert. The container is adapated to hold a volume of the liquid. The container has a bottom, a sidewall, and at least one opening. The insert is removably received by the container. The insert has an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion of the insert projects outwards from the container during operation. The lower portion of the insert has a shaft with a distal end located near the bottom of the container during operation. A motor is operable to rotate the shaft during operation. A mixing blade is fixedly coupled with respect to the distal end of the shaft. A frothing assembly is movably coupled to the shaft. The frothing assembly incorporates a float and a frother. The float is adapted to maintain the float and the frother near an upper surface of the liquid during use such that, regardless of the liquid level in the container, the frother is position near the top surface to selectively froth the liquid therein.
Abstract:
A chemical mixing apparatus has a mixing tank having an inlet and an outlet, means for introducing a liquid into the mixing tank, and a tubular conveyor assembly having a first end and a second end. The second end of the conveyor assembly is sealably connected to the inlet of the mixing tank. A portable hopper having a sealable inlet and a sealable discharge conduit is detachably and sealably connected to the first end of the conveyor assembly such that a solid chemical contained in the chemical storage chamber of the portable hopper may be transported within the portable hopper from a remote location and conveyed from the portable hopper to the mixing tank without exposing the area surrounding the mixing tank to the solid chemical.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to blending microspheres in polyols, for example, as part of a process for making syntactic polyurethane. A system for providing a blend of microspheres dispersed in a polyol at a job site location, may include: a polyol receiving tank (110) configured to receive a polyol from an IBC (10), a dosing station (120) configured to provide a flow of fluidized microspheres, an in-line mixing machine (130) configured to mix the polyol from the polyol receiving tank with the flow of fluidized microspheres from the dosing station, and a conditioning tank (140) configured to receive the polyol -microsphere mixture. The in-line mixing machine may be a mobile, stand-alone blending unit configured for transportation to the job site location for mixing the polyol with the microspheres at the job site location.

Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Zumischung eines pulver- oder granulatförmigen Flockungshilfsmittels in eine Flüssigkeit. Diese Vorrichtung enthält einen Behälter (5) zur Aufnahme des zuzumischenden Flockungshilfsmittels, das über ein steuerbares Dosierelement (6) in eine Flüssigkeit eingemischt wird. Dabei ist vorgesehen, dass eine Wiegevorrichtung (26) vorhanden ist, die das Gewicht des durch das Dosierelement abgegebene Flockungshilfsmittels ermittelt und wobei über eine Steuerung die Menge des Flockungshilfsmittels an die durchströmende Flüssigkeitsmenge angepasst wird. Zur abschließenden sicheren Auflösung des Flockungshilfsmittels in der Flüssigkeit wird eine Rotor-Stator-Anordnung vorgeschlagen mit einer Vielzahl von in Axialrichtung einander nachgeschalteten Lochscheiben (45).
