Definitions

  • the mixer device comprises guide means for the flow introduced into it which are of the centripetal type, that is to say, are designed to guide the flow, admitted in a position spaced apart from the axis X, in the direction of said axis with a substantially centripetal movement, towards the intake section 3a, as will become clear from the following detailed description.
  • the reference A indicates the attachment region of the conduit which feeds the air from outside to the mixer, having a "segment" configuration extending along part of the circumferential profile of the conduit 5.
  • the reference A indicates the attachment region of the conduit which feeds the air from outside to the mixer, having a "segment" configuration extending along part of the circumferential profile of the conduit 5.
