Title:
AGITATOR AND CONTAINER
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2017181113
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an agitator which can measure the angle of oscillation of a container containing a liquid by a simpler configuration, and a container for which angle of oscillation can be measured by the agitator with simpler configuration.SOLUTION: A holder 61 is rotated around an inner shaft 40 and is oscillated around a first main shaft, the inner shaft 40 and the first main shaft being different shafts. A measuring unit 7 includes an optical source 71 and an optical sensor 72 fixed to a housing. A switching unit 100 is rotated around the inner shaft 40 with the holder 61, and is oscillated around a second main shaft. The switching unit 100 switches the amount of light passage as the amount of a measured light 70 according to the angle of oscillation of the holder 61. A controller specifies the amount of light passage based on the result of light reception by the optical sensor 72 and controls the angle of oscillation of the holder 61 based on the specified amount of light passage.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
