ABSTRACT:
A paint can cover or lid having a paint mixing device rotatably supported therefrom and extending into the interior of the paint can for mixing paint in the can while the cover or lid is in place to form a closure for the can. The mixer includes a paddle rotatably supported from the paint can cover or lid and a rotatable member which extends rotatably through the paint can cover or lid in a sealed manner to prevent leakage of paint and entrance of air with the outer end of the rotatable member having a polygonal socket receiving the output of a power device. In one embodiment of the invention, the paint can lid or cover is provided with an opening therein receiving an adapter secured to and sealed to the cover or lid by a threaded nut with the rotatable member extending through the adapter in sealed relation thereto. In another embodiment of the invention, the paint can cover or lid is of one piece plastic construction with a central adapter portion having an opening sealingly receiving and supporting a rotatable member capable of being connected to a power source at its upper end. In each embodiment of the invention, the rotatable member supports a paddle extending to a position adjacent the bottom and peripheral wall of the paint can for thoroughly agitating and mixing paint prior to its use with the cover forming a sealed closure for the paint can to retain all of the paint in the can while the paint is being mixed.
