Abstract

A mixing vessel includes a vessel body, a clamping device and a stirrer. The vessel body includes a bottom panel and a vessel wall upwardly extended from the border of the bottom panel. The bottom panel defines a top surface, an opposing bottom surface and an opening cut through the top surface and the bottom surface. The clamping device is connected to the bottom panel of the vessel body and clamped on the top surface and the bottom surface of the bottom panel. The stirrer is inserted through the opening of the bottom panel of the vessel body and connected to the clamping device. Thus, subject to fixation of the clamping device to the bottom panel of the vessel body, the mixing vessel presents the bottom panel of the vessel body from deformation due to heat.

Claims

1. A mixing vessel, comprising:

a vessel body comprising a bottom panel and a vessel wall upwardly extended from the border of said bottom panel, said bottom panel comprising a top surface, an opposing bottom surface and an opening cut through said top surface and said bottom surface;

a clamping device connected to said bottom panel of said vessel body and clamped on said top surface and said bottom surface of said bottom panel; and

a stirrer inserted through said opening of said bottom panel of said vessel body and connected to said clamping device.

2. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 1, wherein said clamping device comprises a pressure plate and a bottom block, said pressure plate being pressed on said top surface of said bottom panel of said vessel body, said bottom block supporting said bottom surface of said bottom panel of said vessel body;

said stirrer is connected to said bottom block and clamped on said pressure plate.

3. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 2, wherein said pressure plate is made of stainless steel.

4. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 2, wherein said clamping device further comprises a plurality of fasteners adapted to secure said vessel body and said bottom block of said clamping device together.

5. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 2, wherein said clamping device further comprises a waterproof gasket squeezed in between said pressure plate and said bottom panel of said vessel body.

6. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 5, wherein said pressure plate comprises a circular body portion and a extend wall, said circular body portion comprising a through hole disposed in communication with said opening of said bottom panel of said vessel body, said extend wall extending downwardly from said circular body portion around said through hole, said extend wall having a top edge and an opposing bottom edge, said bottom edge of said extend wall being abutted against said bottom panel of said vessel body;

said stirrer is inserted through said through hole and pressed on said top edge of said extend wall.

7. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 6, wherein said clamping device further comprises a water seal ring mounted between said pressure plate of said clamping device and said stirrer.

8. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 1, wherein said clamping device further comprises a water seal ring mounted between said pressure plate of said clamping device and said stirrer.

9. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 1, wherein the outer contour of said vessel body exhibits a rhombic shape, the contour of said bottom panel of said vessel body exhibits a rhombic shape.

10. The mixing vessel as claimed in claim 1, wherein said clamping device further comprises a shockproof gasket mounted between said bottom block and said bottom panel of said vessel body.
