A device for mixing or blending the contents of the device into a liquid or semi-liquid. The device includes a bottle body, a bottle lid connected to a top end of the bottle body, and a mixer located within the bottle body. The mixer may be powered by a motor or by a manual crank turned by a user.

The present invention relates to a kind of pigment preparation, in particular to a modified layered silicate novel barrier and shielding pigment and its preparation method. It is a layer silicate with exchangeable anticorrosive ions as a template, using metal oxides or metal salts, inorganic acids to synthesize nano-spherical zinc phosphate, phosphate, molybdate, borate or tungstate, with rare earth cerium, strontium, lanthanum or praseodymium doped modification of the pigment. The invention uses silicate as a template to effectively control the agglomeration of nanoparticles during the liquid phase deposition process, avoiding the multiple cleaning and sewage treatment processes required by using surfactants and solvents. What is more valuable is lamellar silicic acid. The salt itself has certain anti-corrosion properties and is economical. At the same time, the physical barrier and exchangeable anti-corrosion ions of the lamellae further improve the anti-corrosion properties of the pigment, making the pigment highly active and shielding.

A blending apparatus is provided which includes a container defining a cavity having a center axis and a substantially rectangular cross section through the center axis. The blending apparatus further includes a lid to cover the cavity defined by the container, and an attachment to fit within the cavity and rotate about the center axis of the cavity. In some arrangements, a set of sides of the container defines (i) a substantially octagonal interior cross section through the center axis at a location adjacent a bottom of the container to prevent lodging of food products at the bottom of the container when the attachment rotates within the cavity; and (ii) a substantially square interior cross section through the center axis at a location further from the bottom of the container.

An ice cream making assembly includes a mixing bowl having an outer housing and an inner liner defining a wall cavity therebetween. The mixing bowl further includes a radiator fin unit received within a portion of the wall cavity and a phase-change medium filling a further portion of the wall cavity surrounding at least a portion of the radiator fin unit. The radiator fin unit defines an outer chamfer extending generally along an outer cross-sectional profile of the wall cavity and a tapered inner profile extending along inner cross-sectional profile of the wall cavity and in at least partial contact with the inner liner. The assembly further includes a dasher including first and second mixing arms extending outwardly from an anchor end of the axle and upwardly and outwardly to generally follow an angled inner profile of the food-product receiving cavity defined by the liner.

A mixing and dispersing apparatus includes a tank body, a stirring part, a dispersing part, and a driving part. The tank body has an accommodating cavity configured to accommodate materials. The stirring part is disposed in the accommodating cavity and configured to mix the materials in the accommodating cavity. The dispersing part is disposed in the accommodating cavity and includes a first cylinder and a second cylinder. The first cylinder has a first cavity in communication with the accommodating cavity, the second cylinder is located in the first cavity, and the second cylinder has a second cavity in communication with the accommodating cavity. The driving part is connected to the stirring part and the dispersing part. The materials mixed in the accommodating cavity flow into the second cavity and flow out after being dispersed in the dispersing part.

An agitator according to embodiments of the present disclosure includes: an agitation tank; a rotation axis that is installed to rotate within the agitation tank; a first wing portion that is connected to the rotation axis and includes a plurality of wings parallel to the rotation axis; and a second wing portion that is connected to the rotation axis and includes a band-shaped wing forming a screw thread along the rotation axis.

A stirring device of thin-film rotation type includes a tubular portion whose lateral surface has: a band-shaped first region extending circumferentially of the tubular portion and including holes penetrating in a inward-outward direction; and a band-shaped second region extending circumferentially of the tubular portion and including no hole or holes penetrating in the inward-outward direction, where the second region has a smaller aperture ratio than the first region. The first region is located to include a middle of the tubular portion in a height direction The second region ranges from the upper edge of the first region to the upper end of the tubular portion and also from the lower edge of the first region to the lower end of the tubular portion. The first region has a width Wp, and the tubular portion has a height H, where 0<Wp<0.5H.

A slurry mixing apparatus includes: an agitator in a ceiling part of the slurry mixing apparatus and configured to revolve about a revolution axis thereof while rotating about a first rotation axis thereof; a distributor in the ceiling part of the slurry mixing apparatus and configured to revolve about the revolution axis while rotating about a second rotation axis; a driver configured to provide a rotational force to the agitator and the distributor; a container configured to accommodate a slurry to be mixed by the agitator and the distributor; and a liquid supply part in at least one of the ceiling part, the agitator, the distributor, and the container and configured to provide a liquid.
