DEFINITION

Classification: 366/108

BY VIBRATION:

(under the class definition) Apparatus and corresponding methods wherein the agitation of the material is effected by the action of a vibratory device producing rapid to and from movement of portions of the material, of the mixing chamber, of a portion of the chamber well or of a stirrer, or by rapid to and from movement of a stirrer energized by flow of the material there against.

(1) Note. A patent for vibratory device, per se, disclosed for use as a stirrer by insertion with a mass of of material will be place in subclasses 117+ below, and see the search notes thereto.
