A can mixing device is disclosed. The device may include a base plate having a base plate proximal surface and a base plate distal surface. The device may further include a first rod having a first rod proximal end and a first rod distal end. The first rod distal end may be attached to a center portion of the base plate proximal surface. The device may further include a top plate having a first hole in a top plate center portion. The top plate may be configured to slide along a first rod length through the first hole. Further, the top plate may be attached to the first rod proximal end via a fastening member. Furthermore, the device may include a connection member attached to the base plate distal surface. The connection member may be configured to removably couple with a power tool configured to generate a device reciprocating movement.

An apparatus for mixing viscous fluids in a container through applied rotational and oscillation motions is provided. The apparatus has a sample carrier platform mounted to a shaft along a longitudinal axis with a first mechanism imparting oscillating motion to the shaft and a second mechanism imparting rotational motion to the shaft and carrier platform along the axis simultaneously or sequentially. Couplings to the shaft allow the shaft to freely rotate at the same time as it can be pushed or pulled along the longitudinal axis. Sequence, duration and frequency of oscillations and rotations are controlled with a programmable controller.

A mixing apparatus includes a well plate assembly including a fixed support, and a well movable with respect to the fixed support. A fixed sensor mount has a first portion disposed above the well and a second portion disposed within the well. A plurality of electromagnets are operable to move the well plate assembly vertically with respect to the fixed sensor mount and the fixed support.

The present application is directed towards systems for adding components to materials being fluidized in a vibratory mixer by use of atomizers or sprayers. A mechanical system can fluidizes, mix, coat, dry, combine, or segregate materials. The system may comprise a vibratory mixer, mixing vessel containing a first material and a sprayer to introduce a second material. The vibratory mixer may generate a fluidized bed of a first material and the sprayer, coupled to the mixing vessel, may introduce a second material onto the fluidized bed to mix the materials in a uniform and even fashion.

The present invention discloses devices for independently-controllable, multi-chamber cuvettes for rapid, concurrent spectral analyses, embodied applications of same, and methods therein. Devices include: a multi-chamber cuvette having contiguous analysis chambers forming a single continuous inner cavity configured to contain a liquid in an inner-cavity volume, wherein each chamber is configured to serve as a measurement zone for the liquid in the inner cavity when the volume is filled with the liquid by regulation of hydrostatic pressure in the inner cavity in order to prevent fluid flow from a given chamber to another chamber, and wherein each volume in each zone is designated a zone volume; thermal-contact windows positioned in a chamber to enable independent temperature control of a zone volume in a zone; and cuvette optical windows, positioned in each chamber to provide independent optical access to each zone, adapted to enable analysis of each zone volume in each zone.
