Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, devices and systems for mixing and dispensing multi-component materials. The mixing and dispensing may be performed using a mobile, enclosed dispenser that can be used to supply a mixed multi-component material at the point of use. In some embodiments, the components to be mixed into the multi-component material may be supplied in cartridges.
Abstract:
An apparatus, system and method for mixing and dispensing dental impression materials is described. A dental impression material mixing machine comprises a water dispenser fluidly coupled to a hollow mixing axle, the mixing axle extending through a pulley, wherein an inner circumference of the hollow mixing axle forms a water conduit and an outer circumference of the hollow mixing axle forms a hub connector, a closeable valve inserted at a water entrance to the water conduit and electronically coupled to a water pump, an electronically commutated motor rotatably coupled to the pulley, wherein the hub connector receives a tubular rotatable hub of a disposable mixing vessel comprising dry dental impression powder, and wherein water is dispensed from the water dispenser into the disposable mixing vessel through the water conduit and hub orifice.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for calculating a food additive. A first method includes identifying chemical compounds of an averse food ingredient, identifying chemical compounds of a flavorful food ingredient and calculating a set of chemical compounds for the food additive such that an olfactory perception of a mixture of the averse food ingredient, the flavorful food ingredient and the food additive is the same as an olfactory perception of only the flavorful food ingredient. A first device includes a database storing information identifying chemical compounds of an averse food ingredient and identifying chemical compounds of a flavorful food ingredient, and a processor for calculating a food additive such that an olfactory perception of flavors of a mixture of the averse food ingredient, the flavorful food ingredient and the food additive is the same as an olfactory perception of only the flavorful food ingredient.

Abstract:
A water amount controlling device includes a control unit for controlling an amount of water to be supplied, and a washing agent receptacle including a detection unit , wherein the detecting unit is adapted for detecting and identifying e.g. a type, a consistency or an amount of washing agent dispensed from a washing agent reservoir to be received in the washing agent receptacle, and wherein the control unit is adapted for controlling an amount of water based on the detected and identified property of the quantity of washing agent.
Abstract:
An apparatus for batched mixing of an additive component from individual components for mixture products containing the additive component and for temporarily storing the additive component, which is part of a mixer for forming the mixture products by mixing an additive component with a base component includes a single batch tank connected by at least a control valve and/or a proportioning valve to connections supplying the individual components for proportioned introduction of the individual components. The single batch tank is connected to a mixing and buffer tank arranged on a level below the single batch tank for temporary storage of the mixed additive component.
Abstract:
Line for dispensing and mixing products, the line having a dispenser (2,2′) dispensing one or more colours inside a container (10,10′) of a pre-dispensed base and a mixer for mixing products (3,3′); the mixer operates on the products contained inside said container. The dispenser (2,2′) and the mixer (3,3′) operate sequentially and automatically. A method includes perforation of a container (10,10′), followed by dispensing one or more colours inside said container (10,10′); a step of insertion of a lid in the hole; and a step of mixing one or more colours inside the container. The steps of perforation, dispensing, insertion of lids, and mixing are performed, respectively, through a perforater and dispenser (2,2′), a lid-inserter (21,21′), and a mixer for dispensing and mixing products that are completely closed. The steps of perforation, dispensing, insertion of lids, and mixing are performed automatically by the line (1,1′) activated externally by the final user and without any need for intervention on the part of a skilled operator.

The system includes a subsystem for mixing and controlling the dry construction materials, a subsystem for mixing and controlling the additive materials, a main mixer which produces the ready-to-use mixture of lightweight construction material and a computerized control unit which controls the manufacturing process and thereby producing a ready-to-use mixture of lightweight construction material which is substantially uniform and has a controlled specific gravity. The present invention further provides an automated line of production for manufacturing ready-to-ship porous lightweight brick walls, controlled by the computerized control unit
Abstract:
A measuring and diluting cup for preparing pharmaceutical doses is provided. The cup comprises an upstanding body having an open mouth and a hollow interior bounded by a sidewall. The cup also has a pharmaceutical measuring compartment. The pharmaceutical measuring compartment is opposite the open mouth and forms a bottom of the hollow interior. The cup also has a diluent measuring compartment which is adjacent the open mouth. The pharmaceutical measuring compartment captures a measured volume smaller than the volume of the diluent measuring compartment, and the pharmaceutical measuring compartment opens to the diluent measuring compartment. The upstanding body is substantially cylindrical and the pharmaceutical measuring compartment has a cylindrical or conical region concentric with the upstanding body. The pharmaceutical measuring compartment has a smaller diameter than the upstanding body.
Abstract:
A mixer capable of uniformly mixing a plurality of fluid materials without providing a mixing tank or an agitating vane. Different fluid raw materials are stored in raw material tanks, respectively. The raw materials are fed at a predetermined rate by variable restrictors so as to be supplied to a fluid supply hole of a nozzle. At this moment, the materials are not mixed. When the materials are discharged from a fluid discharge outlet, compressed air introduced from an air supply hole of the nozzle forms a high-speed vortex flow of the compressed air in front of the nozzle and the discharged raw materials are crushed into fine particles and mixed by this vortex flow, thereby obtaining a uniformly mixed material.
