Abstract
A remotely transmitting batch mixer has a bowl and a shaft carrier mounting shafts with mixers which mix material in the bowl. Drive mechanism revolves the carrier about an axis generally centrally aligned with the axis of the bowl to move the shafts relatively orbitally about the bowl, and at the same time revolves them about their individual axes. A static enclosure, which mates with the bowl, is provided for the carrier and drive mechanism. Sensor mechanism responsive to the temperature of the material in the bowl and/or to loads applied to one of the shafts is mounted on one of the shafts and connects with slip ring mechanism and an electromagnetic signal transmitter mechanism on the revolving carrier and a signal receiver mounted on the static enclosure.
