Presented is a cooking robot system. The system includes a housing, a pair of cooking pots, and a motion mechanism to allow each of the cooking pots to perform a movement in 3 Degrees of Freedom (DoF) along horizontal, vertical, and rotational axes. The motion mechanism includes a horizontal motion arrangement, a vertical motion arrangement, and a rotational motion arrangement. The cooking robot system further includes a pair of heating elements rotatably coupled to the rotational motion arrangement. The heating arrangements detachably engage the cooking pots for heating the cooking ingredient contained in the cooking pots. The cooking robot system further includes a stirring mechanism for stirring the contents of the cooking pots, an ingredient-holding container containing cooking ingredients, and a dispenser assembly for selectively dispensing the cooking ingredients contained within the ingredient holding container.

A sealing cap for a container provides a resealable, multi-piece assembly featuring a watertight and airtight seal and child resistance against opening the sealing cap, and which is designed to be snapped on to the top of conventional aluminum cans and extendable to common food and herb matter containers.

A multi-chambered shot glass for storing and transporting multiple liquids for consumption or mixing at a time after the chambers have been filled includes a first body portion comprising a first chamber and a second chamber, the first chamber and the second chamber separated by an inner partition. The first chamber has a first aperture configured to form a fixed first chamber rim and a seal covering the first aperture. The second chamber includes a second aperture configured to form a second chamber rim. A second body portion having a fixed third chamber includes a third aperture. The fixed third chamber is configured for insertion into the second chamber such that the third chamber engages the second chamber in a fluid sealed configuration.

The present invention is a water softener brine tank salt bag splitter with a blade and telescoping mounting rod positioned below the tank lid to accommodate a variety of tank sizes and stiffen the lateral flexibility of the tank sidewall. Looped vertical mounting brackets secure over and around the upper edge of the tank sidewall to preserve the seal between the tank sidewall and lid. The mounting rod and brackets form a platform to support the weight of a salt bag when pouring salt pellets into the tank. The configuration of the brackets and the weight of the bag locks the bracket in place to prevent the blade from rotating when the bag drops down onto the blade. The device includes a rod assembly with an adjustable length, a cutting blade attached to a surface of the rod assembly, and brackets connectable to first and second ends of the rod assembly.

The invention relates to a material roll preparation arrangement. The material roll preparation arrangement comprises a receiving apparatus for receiving a material roll to be prepared with a wound material web, and at least one material roll preparation apparatus which is assigned to the receiving apparatus for the preparation of the material roll which is received in the receiving apparatus for further processing, in particular in a corrugator plant.

The present invention is a method for gripping and removing the tie means from a bale loaded in a machine intended to load, shred, distribute and/or transform such a bale held in shape by a tie means extending around its outer surface. It involves, using such a machine furthermore including a grip and removal device including a grip means and removal means, moving the grip means from a first position remote from the outer surface of the bale to a second position on the outer surface, then gripping the latter using the grip means and removing the tie means by moving it away from the outer surface. Its subject is also such a machine suitable for the implementation of the said method.

A transport packaging includes a tray formation which is configured to hold a plurality of containers with mutual separation to avoid mutual contact of the containers. The tray formation includes a first tray part having a plurality of pockets configured to receive first ends of the containers and a second tray part removably coupled to the first tray part and having a corresponding plurality of pockets configured to receive second ends of the containers. The first tray part is formed such that, when the second tray part is removed so that the second ends of the containers are free from the pockets of the second tray part, the free second ends of the containers are free to be brought into mutual contact while the first ends of the containers are still received in the pockets of the first tray part.

Systems and methods described herein are optimized for cutting sealing elements on packages using optical radiation. Packages can pass through a cutting device that applies the optical radiation to damage, vaporize, or cut the sealing element (e.g., tape) on the package. The systems and methods control several aspects of the cutting process to adjust throughput, improve efficiency, and reduce line stoppages. Systems can include an in-feed conveyor that orients packages and rejects packages that are out of specification, which can lead to issues such as jamming or damage to the equipment. Systems can include a variable-speed cut conveyor controlled by a computing system to dynamically adjust the speed of packages based upon historical cut quality, environmental measurement data, and height data related to a vertical dimension of the package.
