Abstract

Abstract A stirring reactor for a viscous material. The reactor comprises a stirring vessel; a revolvable shaft provided in the vessel; a surface layer stirring vane provided on the revolvable shaft in the vicinity of interface of the gas and the liquid to be stirred; a stirring vane having at least a pair of radially directed multiple portion blades which extend radially towards the inner wall, a first of which blade portions is fastened on the revolving shaft below the upper layer stirring vane and the other of which blade portions extends outwardly radially from said first portion to terminate close to the inner wall of the vessel; and baffle plates provided on the inner side wall at positions substantially parallel to the surface layer stirring vane, and at a height between the heights of any stirring vanes having multiple blades.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 194 words
A stirring-type reactor for a viscous material comprising a stirring vessel, having an inner wall, for receiving a viscous reaction material; a revolvable shaft provided in the vessel; an uppermost surface layer stirring vane (A) having at least one pair of stirring blades provided on the revolvable shaft for stirring at or near an interface of the gas and the viscous liquid to be stirred in the vessel; at least one composite stirring vane (B) having blades which extend radially toward the inner wall wherein each of said blades comprises a first portion which is fastened on the revolvable shaft below the surface layer stirring vane (A) and a second portion out bound of said first portion extending radially therefrom toward said inner wall of the vessel and terminating adjacent to said inner wall; and baffle plates provided on said inner wall of the vessel, at least one baffle plate being provided at a position on said inner wall at substantially the same height as said surface layer stirring vane (A) and at least one baffle plate being provided at a height which is different relative to any of said composite stirring vanes (B).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 194 words
A stirring-type reactor for a viscous material comprising a stirring vessel, having an inner wall, for receiving a viscous reaction material; a revolvable shaft provided in the vessel; an uppermost surface layer stirring vane (A) having at least one pair of stirring blades provided on the revolvable shaft for stirring at or near an interface of the gas and the viscous liquid to be stirred in the vessel; at least one composite stirring vane (B) having blades which extend radially toward the inner wall wherein each of said blades comprises a first portion which is fastened on the revolvable shaft below the surface layer stirring vane (A) and a second portion out bound of said first portion extending radially therefrom toward said inner wall of the vessel and terminating adjacent to said inner wall; and baffle plates provided on said inner wall of the vessel, at least one baffle plate being provided at a position on said inner wall at substantially the same height as said surface layer stirring vane (A) and at least one baffle plate being provided at a height which is different relative to any of said composite stirring vanes (B).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
The stirring-type reactor of claim 1 wherein said surface layer stirring vane has two pairs of stirring blades positioned symmetrically on said revolvable shaft, the stirring blades being plates the planes of which are aligned vertically or obliquely with respect to their plane of revolution around the revolvable shaft.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
The stirring-type reactor of claim 1 wherein each multiple stirring blade consists of two blades which are aligned at opposite angles relative to their plane of revolution around said revolvable shaft.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
The stirring-type reactor of claim 1 wherein each baffle plate has a substantially rectangular shape.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 33 words
The stirring-type reactor of claim 1 including a plurality of baffle plates is provided on the inner wall of the vessel along a line substantially parallel to said axis of the revolvable shaft.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 24 words
The stirring-type reactor of claim 5 including a plurality of plates are provided in a circumferential direction along the inner wall of the vessel.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 13 words
The stirrup-type reactor of claim 4 wherein said baffle plate is substantially square.
