Abstract

A paint mixing and conditioning apparatus in which a paint filled container is simultaneously tumbled end over end while being rotated about its longitudinal axis. The container is clamped to a pulley shaped disc which is rotatably carried by spaced resilient wheels journaled in an upstanding plate. The container clamp is disposed to extend across openings in the upstanding plate and disc. The pulley shaped disc is driven peripherally by a resilient drive wheel coupled to a power source to tumble the container. A beveled friction wheel, coupled to the container clamp and in frictional contact with the upstanding plate, rotates the container as the pulley shaped disc is turned.
