Abstract

A consistometer usable at a work site comprises a stationary receptacle (9) which is placed in an enclosure (3) defined by a consistometer casing (2) and is provided with a stirrer (17) with a rotary drive spindle (18). The casing has an extension (20) in which there is arranged an intermediate shaft (23) angularly fast with a torque receiver (22) of a magnetic type actuated from outside the extension by a driven torque transmitter (21). Shaft (23) is angularly fast with a coupling device (24) for engagement with the spindle simply by the spindle being introduced into the coupling device when the receptacle is placed in the casing.
