Abstract
A mixing device for viscous ingredients having a motor-driven rotor with a hollow interior defining a surface which is inclined to the axis of rotation of the rotor. Ducts coaxial with the rotational axis of the rotor feed the ingredients into the hollow interior of the rotor where they are premixed by impinging on one or more rods fixed in the rotor perpendicular to the axis of rotation. As the rods rotate with the rotor the premixed ingredients are thrown against the interior surface of the rotor where they flow over the surface to provide further mixing, the thoroughly mixed ingredients being thrown off the edge of the rotor in the form of droplets. Instead of using rods, a conical portion may be provided under the ducts in the hollow interior of the rotor.
