An agitator device, in particular a non-close-clearance agitator device, in particular with respect to a vessel wall, in particular for mixing low-viscosity to medium-viscosity media, having at least one agitation shaft and having at least one outer agitation blade which is held on the agitation shaft and which in at least one section is implemented so as to be arm-shaped. The agitator device has an inner agitation blade which conjointly with the outer agitation blade implements at least one van-type conveying unit which is at least configured for conveying a medium in at least one direction parallel with the agitation shaft and in particular in at least one further direction perpendicular to the agitation shaft.

A paint multi-tool assembly includes a shaft that has a hooked end that is insertable into a power tool thereby facilitating the shaft to be rotated when the power tool is turned on. A first cylinder insertably receives the shaft thereby facilitating the first cylinder to be inserted into an open end of a paint roller. Thus, the power tool can rotate the paint roller for cleaning paint off of the paint roller. A plurality of fins is each coupled to and extends away from the first cylinder for stirring paint in the paint container. A second cylinder is coupled to each of the fins such that the second cylinder is spaced from the first cylinder. In this way the second cylinder can be inserted into the paint container or be inserted into the open end of the paint roller.

An electrically controlled mixing and blending apparatus featuring high corrosion resistance and mixing efficiency includes a housing, a first bearing engaged to both sides of the housing, and the interior of both first bearings being coupled to a first rotating shaft, a second bearing engaged to a surface at the middle of the first rotating shaft and the interior of the second bearing being engaged to a surface of an output shaft of a first motor output shaft. Both sides of the first motor are fixedly coupled to a surface of the first rotating shaft through a first fixed rod. A gear drives the first motor, a blending rod and a stirring rack to swing in the front-rear direction through the first rotating shaft to increase the turbulence of the liquid raw materials, reduce the time required for mixing raw materials, and improve the production efficiency.

An object of the present invention is to provide a novel solid phase peptide synthesis method for synthesizing a large amount of a peptide. Another object of the present invention is to provide a novel solid phase peptide synthesis method for synthesizing a high-purity long-chain peptide. Still another object of the present invention is to provide a novel solid phase peptide synthesis method causing fewer side reactions. The present invention relates to a method for producing a peptide, and the method comprises solid-phase synthesis of a peptide under stirring with a centrifugal stirrer having no impeller.

A stand mixer is provided, which includes a mixing bowl and one or more beaters configured to rotate within the bowl and orbit about a common axis that is concentric with the bowl. The mixer further includes a scraper with an edge that is shaped to conform to an inside wall of the bowl, and which is also configured to orbit, with the beaters, about the common axis, while rotating at the same rate so that the edge of the scraper remains in contact with the inner wall of the bowl.

The present invention relates to a hand mixer having a heat activation function. The heat activation function preferably allows a user to heat ingredients that are to be mixed by a hand mixer. The hand mixer may include a cavity that has each of a fan, a motor to drive the fan, heated coils, and an output area or mouth. When a user wishes to activate the heating function to soften ingredients in a bowl or other vessel to be mixed, he or she may use a controller to activate the fan and blow air through the heated coils and out from the output area toward the ingredients to be mixed and/or mixing devices used to mix the ingredients, so that the ingredients may be softened.

A melting kettle for processing of thermoplastic material. The kettle disclosed herein obtains heat transfer by use of an oil jacketed tank with an adjoining main tank for storage of hot oil and a hose tank for recovery of the hot oil. Oil expelled from the oil jacket is directed to the main tank through an opening. Spillage of oil from the hose tank is directed to the main tank through an aperture. The melting kettle reduces the space needed for oil storage, and increases operator safety by eliminating additional transfer lines. Dual kettles benefit by having the adjoining main tank placed therebetween.

Melting kettles for use on vehicles for continuous processing of material for applying lines, stripes, bitumen, crack sealant or the like. The kettles disclosed herein provide heat transfer by use of oil jacketed tanks. A coil may be placed along a lower section for heat transfer through a burner for heating recirculated oil. A coil may be placed in a lower section and an upper section for heating an oil jacket, as well as heat transfer from the entire circumference of a coil placed in the upper section. An upper coil can be fluidly coupled to a lower coil and positioned within the chamber a spaced apart distance from the interior wall of the melter kettle. A mixer system rotates paddles to cause continuous transfer of material around the upper coil. The melter kettle is cylindrical, but can be corrugated to increase heatable surface area.

A manual mixer serves to facilitate mixing and agitating materials for use during surgery. The manual mixer includes a mixing assembly and an actuation assembly for actuating the mixing assembly. The mixing assembly includes at least a paddle portion and a plunger portion. The plunger portion is simultaneously capable of rotational movement with the paddle portion and movement upwardly or downwardly along the paddle portion. Rotation of the paddle portion serves to facilitate mixing and agitating of the materials, and downward movement of the plunger portion serves to facilitate dispensing of the materials from the manual mixer.

A system for cooling and mixing a food or drink in a pod includes an apparatus for cooling and mixing a food or drink in a pod, the hermetically sealed pod, and a magnetic stir bar. The apparatus has a cooling system defines a recess sized to receive the pod. The apparatus includes a magnetic stirring assembly for rotating the magnetic stir bar and an actuator operable to create a vibration in the recess, The magnetic stirring assembly is operable to generate a magnetic field in the recess of the cooling system and has a rotating magnet. The magnetic stirring assembly rotates the immersed magnetic stir bar in the pod causing the food or drink to rotate to the wall of the pod to increase heat transfer from the food or drink to the cooling system.
