Abstract
An internal mixer having a floating weight disposed in contiguous with an internal mixer main body and made elevatable in a hopper to which a material to be mixed is charged, wherein a hydraulic cylinder for elevating the floating weight is disposed in contiguous with the internal mixer main body, a pneumatic/hydraulic pressure conversion means for pressure conversion between a hydraulic side and a pneumatic side is disposed separately from the internal mixer main body, and the hydraulic side of the hydraulic cylinder for lowering the floating weight is connected with the hydraulic side of the pneumatic/hydraulic pressure conversion means. The reliability of the internal mixer can be improved while making the structure compact and facilitating the maintenance operation.
