Abstract
The present invention generally pertains to an agitating element for agitating low-to-medium-viscosity liquids. The agitating element comprises an inner main blade and an outer side blade, and the two blades are integrally constructed. The main blade is angled with respect to the rotation axis of the agitating element, while the side blade is angled with respect to the rotation plane of the agitating element. The agitating element according to the current invention enables high hydraulic efficiency especially in a vertical direction so as to accomplish thorough mixing of the material with a minimal energy input.
