Abstract
The device for the homogenization of high-viscosity fluids comprises static mixing elements (11, 12) and possibly filter elements (6). These elements of the device are arranged in a sleeve (13) along the sleeve axis (15). According to the invention the sleeve is composed of several parts; the elements of the device are monolithic structural members (10, 20; 60) and all or a plurality of these structural members have flange-like or nose-like parts (4; 4a, 4b). With these parts the structural members engage so as to anchor in the sleeve region between sleeve parts and form, at the same time, parts of the sleeve. The device according to the invention is provided, for instance, as a mixing head (1) in the nozzle of an injection molding machine or as a melt mixer of an extruder.
