Device for continuous mixing of powdered materials
Abstract
Abstract A device for continuous mixing of powdered materials which include ferro-magnetic components, has a drum mounted for rotation on its own axis and made in the form of a polyhedral truncated pyramid. The drum is disposed with the axis inclined to the horizontal and is fed at one end thereof with powdered materials which are to be thoroughly mixed, and the mixed materials are discharged at the other end. The inside of the drum is provided on its longitudinal edges with rigidly mounted baffles which are made of ferromagnetic material, and the baffles are arranged along a helix. A magnetic system which can generate a pulse magnetic field is stationarily mounted above the drum and parallel to a generatrix of the drum. The magnetic field reaches the inside of the drum through the ferromagnetic baffles which act as cores and aids a redistribution and thorough mixing of the ferromagnetic components with the rest of the components in the powdered material. In order to increase the effect of the pulse magnetic field by effectively increasing the proximity of the baffles to the magnetic system, additional ferromagnetic members may be securingly mounted on the outside of the drum to rotate therewith and arranged so as to nearly bridge a gap between the drum and the magnetic means, whereby the effect of the magnetic field inside the drum is increased.
