Abstract

Abstract A rotor having N and S poles is rotatively supported through bearings from the lower end of an electrode to be immersed in a water sample in which dissolved oxygen is measured. A rotor driving means is disposed adjacent to the rotor, the means generally comprising a magnet which is so constructed that the N and S poles thereof alternately approach the rotor. The rotor follows the rotation of the rotor driving means to rotate in and stir the water sample.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 76 words
A stirring device for automatically measuring dissolved oxygen, characterized in that it comprises an electrode, a rotor which is rotatively attached to one end of the electrode through a support and has N and S poles and a rotating shaft perpendicular to the lengthwise direction of the electrode, and a rotor driving means which is disposed adjacent to the rotor and so constructed that the N and S poles of the means alternately approach the rotor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 76 words
