A vibromixer for mixing liquids, or liquids with gases or solids, consists of a container made of flexible plastic and a drive shaft comprising a mixer plate situated on the lower end of the drive shaft, wherein the container is supported in a support container.

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.

An inner core assembly for a vibration mixer, comprising a motor assembly and a compression assembly located above the motor assembly, wherein the motor assembly comprises a vibration motor, a rotor shaft of the vibration motor is connected to the compression assembly by using an eccentric structure, the compression assembly comprises a stage, the stage is connected to a pressure plate mounting bracket by using a guiding shaft, the pressure plate mounting bracket is capable of sliding along the guiding shaft, the rotor shaft of the vibration motor rotates and drives, by using the eccentric structure, the compression assembly to perform reciprocating motion. Compared with the prior art, curved reciprocating motion of the stage is achieved through eccentric motion, which has lower structural costs, a lower failure rate, and a longer service life than a motor in the prior art.

An automatic fluid mixing and dispensing apparatus using a minimum of two powered actuating mechanisms to retrieve fluids from a plurality of fluid containers, mix said fluids, and dispense said fluids into a plurality of dispensed fluid containers. Fluids are stored until requested and mixed in accordance with operator input.

Disclosed is an apparatus and method for providing asymmetric oscillations to a container. The container may include a fluid, a particle, and/or a gas. A vibration driver attached to the container provides asymmetric oscillations. A controller connected to the vibration driver controls an amplitude, frequency, and shape of the asymmetric oscillations. An amplifier amplifies the asymmetric oscillations in response to the controller. A sensor disposed on the vibration driver provides feedback to the controller.

A blending appliance in accordance with the principals of the present invention includes a linear motor drive comprising a magnet structure secured to a reaction mass and a coil structure secured to a shaker platen, the shaker platen adapted to secure a blending cup. A third mass is secured to the reaction mass via at least one biasing member. A ground is secured to the third mass via at least one biasing member. The shaker platen is secured to the reaction mass via at least one biasing member. The magnet structure and coil structure impart a force to the reaction mass and the shaker platen, which force is driven by the biasing members and the masses of the shaker platen, the reaction mass, and the third mass into resonance, thereby maximizing payload amplitude, minimizing forces transmitted to ground, and minimizing driver amplitude. The smoothie blending cup comprising structure to generate at least two forces applied upon the smoothie ingredients, the forces selected from the group consisting of pulverizing force, shear force, rotational-kinetic energy force, radial-kinetic energy force, and combinations thereof. The smoothie blending cup and cap can be sealed with the beverage ingredients contained therein at the point of manufacture.

A concrete compaction system includes an unbalance exciter for concrete compaction, a compaction detection device for detecting progress of the compaction in the concrete, and a vibration device for generating a haptic feedback when a prescribed progress of the compaction has been detected by the compaction detection device. An electric motor may drive the unbalance exciter and may be powered by an electric power supply and a converter device for converting an electric current from the electric power supply to a drive current for the electric motor. The compaction detection device may comprise a measurement device for measuring the current drawn from the electric motor. The compaction detection device may also comprise an evaluation device for evaluating the current drawn measured by the measurement device, for determining therefrom the progress of the compaction in the concrete, and for detecting whether a prescribed progress of the compaction has been achieved.
