==Mixing Device for Providing a Foamed or Foamable Plastic - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18746651 titled 'Mixing Device for Providing a Foamed or Foamable Plastic

The patent application describes a mixing device for combining a first component with a second component to produce a foamed or foamable plastic.

* The mixing device includes a mixing chamber, a stirrer that can be rotated within the chamber, a first inlet opening for the first component, a second inlet opening for the second component, and an outlet opening for the resulting plastic.

* The first and second inlet openings are spaced apart axially within the mixing chamber to ensure proper mixing of the components.

* The stirrer's rotation helps in thoroughly blending the components to create a uniform foamed or foamable plastic.

* The outlet opening allows for the plastic to exit the mixing chamber once the mixing process is complete.

* This mixing device can be used in various industries where foamed or foamable plastics are required, such as in packaging, insulation, or construction.

Potential Applications:
- Packaging industry for creating lightweight and insulating materials
- Construction industry for producing durable and lightweight building materials
- Automotive industry for manufacturing parts with reduced weight and increased insulation properties

Problems Solved:
- Ensures thorough mixing of components to create a uniform foamed or foamable plastic
- Provides a reliable and efficient method for producing foamed plastics

Benefits:
- Improved quality and consistency in the production of foamed plastics
- Increased efficiency in the mixing process
- Versatile application across different industries

Commercial Applications:
Foamed plastics produced using this mixing device can be used in various commercial applications such as packaging, construction, and automotive industries, offering lightweight, insulating, and durable materials.

Questions about the technology:
1. How does the axial spacing of the inlet openings contribute to the mixing process?
2. What are the advantages of using a rotating stirrer in the mixing device?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Disclosed is a mixing device () for mixing a first component () with a second component () for providing a foamed or foamable plastic (), comprising a mixing chamber (), a stirrer () that is arranged in the mixing chamber () and can be rotated about an axis of rotation (), a first inlet opening () for the supply of the first component () into the mixing chamber (), a second inlet opening () for the supply of the second component () into the mixing chamber (), wherein the first inlet opening () has an axial spacing from the second inlet opening (), and an outlet opening () for the exit of the plastic () from the mixing chamber ().
