ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for mixing the content of a closed package, such as a paint can. The apparatus comprises a frame and a substantially vertically oriented package holder which is movably mounted in the frame. The package holder includes a device for releasably clamping a package so that the axis of the package is parallel with the axis of the holder. The apparatus also includes a device for driving the holder in a closed movement path relative to the frame. The drive device comprises a rotatable shaft which is substantially vertically oriented and which is mounted centrally on the frame. The drive shaft carries a crank having a substantially vertical pin. The pin is centrally connected to the lower portion of the holder and is journalled at one of its ends into a rolling bearing. Stabilizing devices connect the holder and the frame and are arranged to prevent relative rotation between the holder and the frame around the drive shaft axis. The holder is mounted such that its axis converges toward the drive shaft axis in the direction toward the upper portion of the holder.
