FLUID MIXING SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF USE
A fluid mixing system includes a flexible bag having a first end, an opposing second end, and an interior surface bounding a compartment; a retainer coupled to the second end of the flexible bag, the retainer having a retention cavity formed thereon that communicates with the compartment of the flexible bag; and an elongated member having a first end rotatably coupled to the first end of the flexible bag and an opposing second end freely disposed within the retention cavity of the retainer so that the second end of the elongated member can rotate within the retention cavity relative to the retainer.
Thermal immersion circulator
A thermal immersion circulator can comprise a heater including a hollow cylindrical main body having an inlet opening at a first end thereof and an outlet opening in a side wall thereof. The heater can include a flexible circuit board having a plurality of resistive bands controlled by controlling electronics such as TRIACs, which can be water-cooled. A thermal immersion circulator including such a heater can be used in scientific laboratories or sous vide food cooking.
SPIRAL MIXING CHAMBER WITH VORTEX GENERATING OBSTRUCTIONS
A spiral mixing chamber for dissolving a gas into a liquid, features a new and unique combination of a cap and a mixing plate. The cap may include a gas injector configured to receive gas. The mixing plate may include: a liquid inlet configured to receive liquid, a mixture outlet configured to provide a mixture of the gas and liquid from the spiral mixing chamber, and a flow path configured as a spiral geometry having a spiral that winds in a continuous and gradual curve around a central point from the liquid inlet to the mixture outlet, the flow path having flow path obstructions configured to cause disturbances in the flow which generates turbulent vortices that work to break apart bubbles in the mixture flowing through the spiral mixing chamber or device.
FLUID MIXING SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF USE
The present disclosure relates to a mixing assembly for a fluid mixing system. The mixing assembly includes a first rotational assembly having a first casing and a first hub rotatably mounted to the first casing, a second rotational assembly having a second casing and a second hub rotatably mounted to the second casing, an elongated member having a first end coupled with the first hub and an opposing second end coupled with the second hub, and one or more impellers secured to the elongated member.
Material stripping apparatus for external mixing element
An apparatus for removing material residue from an external mixing element as it is being withdrawn from an external vessel containing the material mixed by the mixing element. The apparatus includes a stationary support member, a repositionable support assembly, and a rotatable material stripping element held captive by at least one element of the repositionable support assembly.
Methods and systems for composition compounding
Systems and methods that implement a GUI functional block that allows a user to specify a compounding formula for a composition, an ingredient validation functional block configured for receiving a code on a container holding a first ingredient, consulting a database to derive a formulation ingredient to be used in preparing the composition, determining if the first ingredient matches the formulation ingredient, a planetary mixer control functional block configured for consulting the database arrangement at least partly on a basis of the specified compounding formula to determine mixing parameters for a planetary mixer that are associated with the specified compounding formula, causing a motor assembly of the planetary mixer to apply superimposed rotation and revolution movements to a container in accordance with the mixing parameters determined from the consulting, preventing operation of the motor assembly if the determining step fails to match the first ingredient to the formulation ingredient.
Methods and Apparatus for Multidimensionally Moving Solid, Liquid and Gas Components During Fermentation
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for the multidimensional movement of solid, gas and liquid components during fermentation according to a customized schedule to produce alcoholic beverages.
Reactor systems
This disclosure relates to equipment utilized to manufacture chemical agents, particularly biopharmaceuticals. In some embodiments, reactor systems comprising a mobile carriage assembly; a disposable reaction container removably attached to the carriage assembly; and, a carriage holder into which the mobile carriage assembly may be removably inserted are provided.
Apparatus, System and Method for Providing Enhanced Consumable Food Stuffs
Delivering caffeine-based consumables in conjunction with various additional supplements in a container which may keep at least one first portion of the consumable partially segregated from at least one second portion of the consumable. Delivery may include a multi-chamber bottle which allows for the consumption of at least one of the portions of the consumable by a user.
Water bottle device assembly
A water bottle system for adding an additive, which may be flavoring, to the line of flow without contaminating the main reservoir. The system may include a water bottle with a lid feature that may maintain a flavor that may be infused into the water within the water bottle. The infusion of the additive may be adjusted by a user to have the desired concentration of additive to a user's liking. The additive cartridge may be reusable or disposable depending on a user's preference.
