Definitions
- the present invention refers to the field of the industrial mixing equipments with particular, even if not exclusive, reference to the chemical and pharmaceutical field, and, more precisely, concerns a magnetic drive stirring unit.
- the stirring equipments known in the art comprise a stirring element, whose design and construction varies according to the uses, integral to a supported shaft, usually on rolling bearings, placed outside the container, which holds the product to be mixed.
- Mechanical seals are arranged between the shaft and the container in order to prevent, or at least to limit, the environment pollution and/or the product contamination.
- Magnetic drive stirring units essentially used in laboratory vessels and small scale plants, are also well known in the art. These stirring units assure the best seal conditions required in most appliances, because they comprise a stirring element inside the vessel magnetically coupled to an outer driving device without any mutual mechanical joint as well as mechanical seals.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a magnetic drive stirring unit capable of being easily and rapidly installed on the container and without significant maintenance problems.
- the novel feature of the magnetic drive stirring unit according to the invention consists in that it comprises a flanged plate seal mountable in correspondence with a bottom opening of the vessel containing the product to be mixed, from said flanged plate centrally extending a tubular casing on which a stirring element is pivotally mounted, while the driving device is installed inside said tubular casing, in coaxial relation with the stirring element and the container, and is supported by said flanged plate.
- the stirring element is supported on friction bearings.
- the flanged plate is fixed to a corresponding counterflange of the container by means of a rapid lock connection engaging with two tapered surfaces correspondingly formed on said flanged plate and said counterflange.
- a flanged plate preferably of circular shape, from the central part of which a tubular casing 2 extends upwardly, whose free end is closed by a wall 3.
- a driving unit able to produce a rotating magnetic field, is housed within the tubular casing 2, that has a cylindrical shape.
- the driving unit 4 consists of a shaft 5, to the end of which a magnet 6 is keyed.
- the shaft 5 is supported by bearings, not shown, housed within a bracket 7 fixed to the plate 1.
- a stirring element 8 for instance a propeller, radially extends from an annular support body 9 that is pivotally mounted on the outer side of tubular casing 2 in a coaxial relation with shaft 5. Within the annular body 9 there is mounted a second magnet 10 of annular shape driven in rotation by the rotating magnet 6.
- Annular body 9 rotates by sliding on side cylindrical surface of tubular casing 2, friction bearing means being provided therebetween.
- the friction bearing means comprises a pair of substantially L-shaped rings 11, fixed to the outer side of tubular casing 2 in correspondence with the base and, respectively the free end thereof, and a pair of squared section rings 12 correspondingly fixed to the ends of annular body 9 with a face frictionally contacting a corresponding face of L-shaped rings 11.
- Rings 11 and 12 are made of a material that does not exhibit overheating during the use and compatible with the product to be mixed; the most suitable material for each case can be easily chosen by a person skilled in the art.
- the above described stirring unit is set in correspondence with opening 13, formed in the bottom of a vessel or container 14, in order that the tubular casing 2 results inside the container 14 itself.
- the bottom opening 13 is provided with a counterflange 15 matching the flange 1a of the plate 1 by interposition of a sealing member, for instance an o-ring 16.
- the coupling between the flange 1a and the counterflange 15 is firmly assured by a rapid lock connection 17, for instance a jaw connection, as schematically shown in figure 1.
- the outer faces of the flange 1a and of the counterflange 15 are tapered and converging, giving rise altogether to a frustum of cone surface with which the correspondingly shaped rapid lock connection 17 can be firmly engaged.
- a through hole 18, normally plugged by a cap 19 is formed in the plate 1, and a large conic hollow 20 is formed on the internal surface of the plate 1 in order to make easier the drainage of the product.
- the stirring element 8 may be of the blade type or a propeller, or it may have any other shape chosen by the designer as a function of the kind of material to be mixed.
- FIG. 2 A simplified structure of the stirring unit according to the invention is shown in the embodiment of Figure 2.
- the tubular casing 2 is fixed, for example by means of welding, to the flanged plate 1
- the annular body 9, which supports the propeller 8 is fixed to a bell-shaped support 23, coaxially arranged over the tubular casing 2.
- Support 23, which houses the magnetic element or rotor 9, is magnetically driven into rotation around the tubular casing 2, frictional bearing means being provided comprising two rings 21 and 22.
- the first ring 21 is housed in a peripheral seat of the plate 3, while the second ring 22 is housed in a seat formed at the base of the tubular casing 2.
- the bell-shaped support 23 may be provided with a screw threaded pivot 24 outwardly extending above it so that a lot of different types of propellers, as far as diameter and shape are concerned, can be mounted on it so as to get the best performance of the stirring unit with every kind of fluid to be mixed.
- the stirring unit according to the present invention may advantageously be equipped with a supporting device suitable to make easier the removal of the unit, as schematically shown in figure 4.
- the supporting device substantially comprises a base 25, preferably mounted on wheels 26 and tubular rod 27 extending vertically therefrom and housed within corresponding cylinders 28 and suitable to mutually slide by means of pneumatic actuation or the like. In this way the stirring unit, once disconnected from the container, may easily be lowered and moved.
- the magnetic drive stirring unit according to the present invention allows to get significant advantages in comparison with the mechanic drive stirring units presently known.
