A mixing machine comprising: a support defining a receiving housing, the receiving housing comprising a first receiving location configured to receive a first deformable capsule and a second receiving location configured to receive a second deformable capsule, the first and second capsules being intended to be fluidly linked to each other and containing respectively a first formulation and a second formulation, an actuation system movable relative to the support along a nominal stroke, inside the receiving housing,
wherein the actuation system comprises a spring able to be compressed when the actuation system reaches the end of the nominal stroke.

An electric work machine allows use of batteries with different sizes with battery covers and allows easy maintenance of a damaged battery cover. A rechargeable concrete vibrator includes a motor, a motor housing accommodating the motor, a battery holder connected to the motor housing to receive a battery in a detachable manner, and a battery cover to cover an overall part of the battery held by the battery holder. The battery cover is attachable to and detachable from the battery holder.

A mixing method using a manufacturing apparatus having a mixing machine having a support defining a receiving housing including a first and a second receiving locations configured to receive a first and a second deformable capsules, respectively, the first and second capsules configured to be fluidly linked and containing respectively a first and a second formulations and a second formulations, an actuation system configured to transmit a pressure force to the first and second capsules to move the content of the first capsule in the second capsule, and vice versa, the mixing machine includes a heater element configured to heat at least one of the first and second capsules when received in the mixing machine, the method includes: heating and/or kneading alternately or simultaneously, setting in motion of the actuation system and heating by the heater element, and maintaining a withdrawal temperature by the heater element, without motion of the actuation system.

A drive with which a container can be driven and positively guided in a plane along a trajectory curve, and a method for treating ingredients, in particular mixtures, in a container which is driven and positively guided along a trajectory curve by means of the drive. The drive has the advantage of using only rotary drives to move a container in a positively guided reciprocating movement along a trajectory curve.

A mixing device has a plate that defines a cradle for receiving containers of various types capable of holding samples and reagents. The rectangular plate is mounted at its corners to mounts which in turn connect to motors. An adapter plate translates the rotational output of the motor to reciprocating vertical motion of the mounts. The motors can be controlled to sequentially drive the mounts up and down thereby creating three dimensional motion of the plate and inducing a vortex into the liquids with a container received into the nest plate.

A shaker for actuating a fluidic sample in a container, comprising a shaking plate which connected by a first linking rod to a first eccentric drive which is connected to an axis; a counterweight which connected by a second linking rod to a second eccentric drive which if connected to the axis with an offset to the first eccentric drive; and a motor which rotates the axis to which first and second eccentric drive are connected.

A device for use as a mixing apparatus comprising a container having a cross-section of at least 5 mm diameter, the cross-section being spanned by a wall having protrusions projecting into the cross-section, the protrusions preferably being distributed over the entire wall, the container being driven to reciprocate along a path curve obtainable by superimposing the movement along at least two axes lying at an angle to each other and preferably in the plane of the cross-section of the container at different frequencies.

A tattoo ink mixing apparatus has a housing having a cavity, a plunger movable between a first position and a second position, and a dynamic member disposed in the cavity and adapted to engage with the plunger distal end. The dynamic member moves in response to movement of the plunger and alternatively creates a suction force and an expulsion force in the opening of the distal end of the housing as the plunger moves between its first and second positions.

A fertilizer mixer includes a housing, a plurality of supporting rods, a roof plate, a mixing room, a lifting mechanism, a stirring mechanism, a control mechanism, a driving mechanism, and a cleaning mechanism. The housing includes a top end and one end of each of the plurality of supporting rods is disposed on the top end. The roof plate is disposed on the other end of each of the plurality of supporting rods. The stirring mechanism is fixed on the roof plate. The mixing room includes a bottom wall and the housing includes an inner bottom surface. The mixing room includes a discharge port disposed on the bottom wall, and a seal plug disposed in the discharge port. The lifting mechanism is disposed between the bottom wall and the inner bottom surface and an outer sidewall of the mixing room abuts against an inner sidewall of the housing.
