The solid materials circulating inside the drum are raised between a zone (22) in which the flame of the burner (12) is produced and a mixing zone (30) by raising vanes (18, 18′) which form a dense screen of materials isolating the mixing zone (30) from the flame zone (22) as a result of the solid m

The solid materials circulating inside the drum are raised between a zone (22) in which the flame of the burner (12) is produced and a mixing zone (30) by raising vanes (18, 18′) which form a dense screen of materials isolating the mixing zone (30) from the flame zone (22) as a result of the solid materials being raised and falling back down when the drum (2) is rotated. Recycled materials may be introduced into the zone (23) where the dense screen is formed.

Device for preparing bituminous coated products from virgin aggregates, recycled bituminous mixes and liquid bitumen, comprising (a) a cylindrical main drum mounted for rotation about an axis (XX′) of said main drum and inclined relative to a horizontal plane; (b) a device for supplying virgin aggregates in a cold and moist state, via an upper inlet end of said main drum; and (c) a burner penetrating inside said main drum via a lower outlet end of said main drum and emerging inside a flame zone remote from inlet and outlet ends of said main drum, such that hot gases arising from a flame of said burner and said virgin aggregates circulate in opposite directions; (d) said main drum comprising a mixing zone situated between said flame zone and said outlet end of said main drum, in which mixing zone an internal wall of said main drum is provided with vanes for mixing solid materials circulating inside said main drum with liquid bitumen introduced at an inlet of said mixing zone and a zone for introducing recycled bituminous mixes into said main drum located between said flame zone and said mixing zone; (e) a second drum of smaller diameter than a diameter of said main drum arranged inside and coaxially with said main drum, raising vanes being fixed on an internal wall of said second drum for raising solid materials circulating inside said main drum, so as to form a dense screen of materials isolating said mixing zone from said flame zone, as a result of said solid materials being raised and then falling back down over an entire section of said second drum when said main drum is rotated.
