Abstract
Abstract A wall means defines a first, a second and a third chamber. An impeller is interposed between the first and the second chambers and has a suction side communicating with the first chamber and a pressure side communicating with the second chamber. An outlet communicates with the second chamber and with a user. A pair of inlets for cooler and hotter fluid each communicate with one of the first and third chambers, respectively. A pair of axially aligned apertures connects the first and third chambers with one another. A tubular baffle is shiftable axially in the apertures for increasing the effective cross-section of one of the apertures while simultaneously decreasing the effective cross section of the other aperture, and vice versa.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
In a device for mixing and impelling of heat-exchange fluids, a combination comprising wall means defining a first, a second and a third chamber; an impeller interposed between said first and second chamber and having a suction side adapted to communicate with said first and said third chamber, and a pressure side communicating with said second chamber; and outlet communicating with said second chamber and with a user; a pair of inlets for cooler or hotter heat-exchange fluid each communicating with one of said first and third chambers, respectively; a pair of axially aligned apertures axially spaced from said suction side of said impeller and connecting said first and third chambers with one another; and tubular baffle means shiftable axially in said apertures and operative for increasing the effective cross-section of one of said apertures while simultaneously decreasing the effective cross-section of the other aperture, and vice versa.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
148 words
In a device for mixing and impelling of heat-exchange fluids, a combination comprising wall means defining a first, a second and a third chamber; an impeller interposed between said first and second chamber and having a suction side adapted to communicate with said first and said third chamber, and a pressure side communicating with said second chamber; and outlet communicating with said second chamber and with a user; a pair of inlets for cooler or hotter heat-exchange fluid each communicating with one of said first and third chambers, respectively; a pair of axially aligned apertures axially spaced from said suction side of said impeller and connecting said first and third chambers with one another; and tubular baffle means shiftable axially in said apertures and operative for increasing the effective cross-section of one of said apertures while simultaneously decreasing the effective cross-section of the other aperture, and vice versa.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
A combination as defined in claim 1, wherein said impeller is rotatable about an axis which is coincident with a longitudinal axis of said tubular baffle means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
29 words
A combination as defined in claim 1, said tubular baffle means having an outer cylindrical circumference; and further comprising a lip-seal of substantially L-shaped cross-section mounted on said circumference.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
36 words
A combination as defined in claim 1; and further comprising a temperature sensor projecting through said wall means into said second chamber; and thermal insulating means thermally insulating said sensor with respect to said wall means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
13 words
A combination as defined in claim 4, wherein said second chamber is annular.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
73 words
A combInation as defined in claim 5, wherein said outlet is bounded by a first edge and by an opposite second edge which is spaced from said first edge in direction of rotation of said impeller; and wherein said temperature sensor projects into said second chamber in a region included in an angle of up to 180* extending from said second edge circumferentially of said annular second chamber in said direction of rotation.
