Intelligent Microbial Sample Treatment System
An intelligent microbial sample treatment system includes a workbench, and a sample treatment assembly, a culture medium treatment assembly, a streaking assembly and a culture medium storage assembly that are disposed on the workbench; the sample treatment assembly comprises a sample transfer device, a filling device, and a scanning device, a weight detection device, a filling location, a shaking device and waiting locations that are disposed in sequence; and the sample transfer device moves a sample cup among the scanning device, the weight detection device, the filling location, the shaking device and the waiting locations. The intelligent microbial sample treatment system disclosed by the present invention enables improvement of work efficiency and reduction of space occupation and has a reasonable structural layout and high work efficiency.
PIERCING DEVICE FOR VENTING A CONTAINER
A container for dispensing a liquid includes a body and a piercing device. The body includes an interior storage volume, an outlet through the first wall for dispensing the liquid, a first track disposed in a first side wall of the body, and a second track disposed in a second side wall of the body, the second side wall opposite the first side wall. The piercing device can be slidably coupled to the body and includes a first rail configured to slide within the first track, a second rail configured to slide within the second track, and a piercer that includes a piercing end. The piercer can slide from a first position to a second position to pierce the body and create a vent opening.
SECURITY COVER FOR BEVERAGE CANS AND OTHER CONTAINERS
A security cover system and apparatus for beverage cans and other containers. The system includes a security cap that is installed upon the top of an unopened container for containing an adult beverage or the like. The cap is adapted for secure installation upon the top of a container having a top with a circumferential rim, such as an aluminum beverage can. The cap has catches engagable with the rim of the container. The system includes an opener tool with a specially shaped key portion thereon. The opener engages with a complementary slot in the cap to permit an authorized person, using the opener tool, to remove the cap from the container.
Power management for hot melt dispensing systems
A method of controlling heating of hot melt adhesive within a hot melt dispensing system includes receiving input AC electric power, determining on a half cycle-by-half cycle basis which heaters in a plurality of zones will receive AC electric power during the next half cycle, and distributing the AC electric power to the heaters on a time sharing basis.
Solar powered dispenser system
A system and method for dispensing hand cleaning fluid material including a dispenser with a rechargeable battery powered by a solar generator, a remote electrically powered light source spaced from the dispenser directing light onto the solar panel of the dispenser and a control mechanism controlling the operation of the light source in relation to the status and operation of the dispenser.
Beverage making apparatus
A beverage-making apparatus includes a fermentation tank assembly including a fermentation tank having an opening formed therein and a fermentation tank cover configured to open and close the opening. The beverage-making apparatus also includes a refrigeration cycle apparatus including a compressor, a condenser, an expansion device, and an evaporator. The refrigeration cycle apparatus is configured to circulate a refrigerant therethrough and to control a temperature of the fermentation tank as the evaporator is disposed at the fermentation tank. The beverage-making apparatus further includes a heat insulating wall surrounding both the fermentation tank and the evaporator.
Automatic Stop Method and Device for Can Opener
The invention provides an automatic stop method and device for a can opener. When a first rotation frequency of a bearing in a first preset time is smaller than a second rotation frequency of the bearing in a subsequent second preset time in the process of opening a can by a can opener blade and a difference between the second and first frequency reaches a preset value, it is determined that repeated cutting occurs, and the blade will be stopped in time to avoid problems caused by repeated cutting. Meanwhile, mean values of multiple data acquired within the first and second preset time are calculated, avoiding the problems of an excessively high and long instant processing burden of one time of data acquisition and errors caused by data acquired once, improving the timeliness and accuracy of the first and second frequency, and can opening can be controlled more accurately.
BEVERAGE DISPENSER WITH CONTAINER ENGAGEMENT FEATURES
A clamp of the dispensing device may include a container engagement surface arranged to engage and/or disengage the clamp from the container neck when the clamp is pushed downwardly or pulled upwardly relative to the container neck. The container engagement surface may include a surface with a lower portion that slopes upwardly and inwardly, and an upper portion that slopes upwardly and outwardly relative to the container neck and that moves the clamp radially outwardly and away from the container neck as the clamp is moved vertically relative to the container neck. A latch may maintain a body portion of the dispensing device in an upper position, preventing needle insertion, until a container is suitably engaged with the base portion of the device, e.g., by a clamp. Sensors may detect engagement of a container with the device and/or insertion of a needle into the container.
Tip set
Provided is a tip set used for a genetic testing device. The tip set includes a piercing tip breaking a lid portion of a reagent container filled with a reagent to open the reagent container and an injection tip injecting a sample solution containing a target gene nucleic acid into a microchip. The injection tip has a reservoir storing the sample solution in an internal space and an injection needle protruding from the reservoir, an opening the internal space to a side opposite to the injection needle is formed in the reservoir, and the piercing tip has a fitting portion fitted to the injection tip to connect the injection tip and the piercing tip.
