摘要

A device for mixing a fluid medium in a tall receiver incorporates a floating agitator driven by a vertical axial plate along which the floating agitator slides to follow the level of the liq. The floating agitator can be provided with two spiral blades or can consist of a disc with teeth. The device allows efficient agitation in receivers which are tall in relation to their dia. without the necessity to rotate at high speeds thus enclosing air in the liq. It allows liqs. of high viscosity to be agitated.
