Abstract:
Height locating system for a stirrer shaft (3) of a stirrer lid (5) for a paint stirring machine, characterized in that said system comprises a stirrer shaft including a washer for a shank of said stirrer shaft, said washer comprising a truncated annular body (11) with an opening (13) of slightly smaller dimensions than the diameter of the shank of the stirrer shaft (3), in that it comprises a central pin (15) in its annular plane for insertion into at least one diametrical machined hold (17) in the shank of the stirrer shaft (3), and in that it possesses the property of elastic deformation allowing its opening (13) to be extended to the diameter of the shank of the stirrer shaft (3) for its radial engagement by its central pin (15) on the shank of the stirrer shaft (3) and its locating on the shaft shank such that the wall of the opening is in close surface contact with the shank of the stirrer lid, perpendicular to the latter, by the clamping action of the body (11) around the surface of the shank (3) and in which the upper and lower of said truncated annular body form bearing surfaces for respectively upper and lower rotary elements supported thereagainst.
