DEVICE FOR BLENDING THE CONTENTS OF A BAG

摘要

A blending device for mixing the contents of a plastic bag comprises a casing defining a mixing chamber in which are disposed paddles or the like for acting on the bag and mix the contents thereof, and having a pivotable door for providing access to the chamber and positioning a bag and its contents in this chamber. The door includes a lower container which extends inwardly towards the casing such as to be located in the casing's mixing chamber when the door is a closed position such that spillage resulting from a rupture of the bag in the blending machine is collected in the door's bottom container. Preferably, the door can be easily and completely disconnected from the casing for facilitating the cleaning thereof, for instance following a collection by the container thereof of a spillage. Similarly, the paddles can be easily detached from the motor-driven reciprocation shaft which causes the displacement of the paddles against the bag such that the paddles may be completely disconnected from the casing for facilitating the cleaning thereof.
