Automatic Cocktail Making Device
The present invention provides an automatic cocktail making device including a clamping device connected to a mechanical arm, and a shaker body being connected to the clamping device. The clamping device is provided with a linear driving device, and an output end of the linear driving device is connected to a strainer lid by means of a connecting member, to drive the strainer lid to cover or move away from an opening of the shaker body. The automatic cocktail making device further includes a fixedly mounted cap hanging device. The cap is detachably connected to the cap hanging device, and the cap and the strainer lid are detachably connected to each other. The present invention has the following advantages: by providing the fixedly mounted cap hanging device, automatic, sealed and detachable connection between the cap and the strainer lid is achieved, and the linear driving device assists to drive the strainer lid to cover the shaker body, thereby improving the sealing performance and automation degree of the whole cocktail making device.
MODULAR SYSTEM FOR PERFORMING A PLURALITY OF CRUSHING AND GRINDING PROCESSES
A modular system for performing a plurality of crushing and grinding processes, including: a plurality of interchangeable milling heads, each interchangeable milling head having a milling mechanism configured to perform one of the plurality of crushing and grinding processes when driven; a driving unit including a driving motor having a range of motor characteristics; and a connecting unit configured to functionally connect one of the interchangeable milling heads to the driving motor such that, when connected, the one of the plurality of interchangeable milling heads can perform the one of the plurality of crushing and grinding processes. Each of the plurality of interchangeable milling heads further includes an adaptor unit configured to connect the milling head to the connecting unit and for converting the range of motor characteristics of the driving motor into the milling driving characteristics of the connected interchangeable milling heads.
APPLIANCE WITH INTEGRATED AGITATOR ASSEMBLY
The is provided an appliance including a food preparation container, an agitator assembly for attachment to a blending container, the agitator assembly including: an agitator nut configured to secure the agitator assembly to the blending container, an agitator base including at least one agitator blade mounted thereon and configured to be seated in the agitator nut prior to the agitator assembly being secured to the blending container, a groove formed in an inner wall of the agitator nut, and a seal having an outer periphery that when inserted into the groove secures the agitator base into the agitator nut.
CAPACITIVE TOUCH FACEPLATE FOR A BLENDER
Touch sensors form various controls for a touch controller of a blender. The controls are arranged on the touch controller such that a user holding the blender can operate the blender by articulating their thumbs. In one example, button controls for preset programs are arranged in an arcuate manner on one side of the touch controller, the curvature of the arcuate shape being open to the side of the blender. A button for a pulsating function may be located inside the curvature opening. Start and stop buttons may be located near the bottom in the middle of the touch controller. A vertical sliding speed control may be located on the side of the touch controller opposite the button controls. The touch controller may also have an LED or LCD screen.
Baby bottle blender
A baby bottle blender includes a baby bottle having a top collar with external threads and a bottom collar with external threads. A nipple has an anti-colic air vent. The nipple cap is internally threaded to be removable threaded onto the top collar of the baby bottle and holds the nipple extending through a central aperture of the nipple cap onto the top collar. A top cover snaps over the nipple cap and covers the nipple. An agitating unit is centrally retained within a bottom attaching cap of the baby bottle. Next, a base member has a top recess to engage with the agitating unit in the bottom attaching cap on the baby bottle. An electrical mechanism in the base member is for operating the agitating unit, so that the agitating unit will mix formula within a liquid placed through the top collar of the baby bottle in approximately seven (7) seconds to thoroughly blend the formula.

CONTAINER AND BLENDER HAVING THE SAME
A container is adapted for use in a blender, and includes a surrounding wall surrounding an axis, defining a receiving space, and having an inner surface that faces the receiving space and that has spaced-apart bottom and top edges. The container further includes a plurality of turbulence ridges protruding from the inner surface of the surrounding wall into the receiving space. Each of the turbulence ridges extends from the bottom edge toward the top edge of the inner surface and extends spirally about the axis.
Portable Blender with Heating and Cooling
A blender that heats, cools, and blends foodstuffs within a container assembly is disclosed. Exemplary implementations may include a base assembly, the container assembly, an electrical motor, a blending component, a control interface, blending control circuitry, temperature control circuitry, and/or other components. The base assembly may include an electrical motor, a temperature-regulation sub-system and power sources. The temperature control circuitry may be configured to make a first type of detections regarding a temperature request by the user. The temperature control circuitry may control the temperature-regulation sub-system using one or more different temperature-regulation modes, a heating mode and a cooling mode, thus heating or cooling the foodstuffs, respectively, accordingly. The blending control circuitry may control the electrical motor to drive rotation of the blending component.
Blending apparatus and methods
Blending devices can be used to blend material directly in a container such as a disposable container, such as a paper or plastic cup. In some instances, a disposable container can be coupled to an adapter that includes a blade assembly to blend a food product. The food product can be blended directly within the container when the container is coupled to the adapter and supported with a support sleeve that at least partially surrounds an exterior of the disposable container. In further instances, a stand can selectively couple with multiple different sizes of sleeves and disposable containers to the adapter. The food product can be blended directly within the disposable container without causing damage or flex to the disposable container.
