Kinematics of Actuating Mechanism of Mixer Drives with Unsteady Agitator Motion

Schematic designs of gear-lever actuating mechanisms of mixer drives with intracycle variation of kinematic parameters of agitators are proposed. Analytical correlations of the function of the position, angular speed, and acceleration of the output link of the mechanism, which allow their use for calculating mixer drive, its certification, and reliability of use in hazardous industries and for assessing their influence on mixing intensity and finished product quality are derived.
