Airborne Dust Abatement Device
20200222868 · 2020-07-16 ·

The present invention is a dust abatement device that secures over a container. Powdery material, such as plaster, cement, grout or the like, is poured through the device, and mixed with water inside the container. The device has a mounting sleeve and radial manifold. The manifold forms a radial pneumatic channel with a circumferentially disbursed air intake that generates a radially uniform airflow to draw in airborne dust that would otherwise escape to the surrounding air. The manifold is connected to a vacuum with an air filter, and generates a dust shield zone above and around the device, which only extends down from the manifold a few inches. The manifold also funnels material and water into the container, and forms an inner eave that spaces material and water from the air intake, and forms a splash guard to retain upwardly projected splashes of material and water inside the container.

Dust Shield Device
20200222869 · 2020-07-16 ·

The present invention is a dust shield device that secures over a mixing pail. Powdery material, such as plaster, cement, grout or the like, is poured through the device, and mixed with water inside the pail. The device includes a mounting sleeve, a radial manifold housing and a funnel shaped lid. The manifold housing and lid form a radial pneumatic channel with a circumferentially disbursed air intake that generates a radially uniform airflow that draws in airborne dust that would otherwise escape to the surrounding air. The manifold is connected to a vacuum with an air filter, and generates a dust shield zone air intake zone above the device. The manifold lid forms a radial guard to prevent downward flows of material and water from entering the manifold, and forms a splash guard to retain upwardly projected splashes of material and water inside the pail.

Container with lid for facilitating mixing of materials used for construction and maintenance
10689171 · 2020-06-23 ·

The present invention is a container lid to be fitted on a container having materials used for constructions and/or maintenance of a structure and container lid facilitates mixing. Moreover, container lid has at least one mixer hole that is capable for permitting a portion of mixing paddle to pass through. When container lid is positioned over container, mixing paddle is rotated power drill, operated by a user, to mix materials within the container. Also, container lid has openings for permitting material/aid for mixing like water so that material/aid reaches container and enables mixing. Container lid and container are formed from existing material boxes like paintboxes, and hence such mixing is possible at a very low cost.

20200015630 · 2020-01-16 ·

A beverage mixing assembly includes a gasket that is positioned around an open end of a beverage container. The gasket is comprised of a resiliently stretchable material for accommodating a variety of sizes of beverage containers. A housing is coupled to the gasket for gripping the housing and a motor is positioned within the housing. A shaft releasably engages the motor such that the motor rotates the shaft when the motor is turned on. The shaft extending downwardly into the beverage cup when the gasket is positioned around the open end of the beverage container. A mixer is coupled to the shaft such that the shaft rotates the mixer when the motor is turned on thereby facilitating the mixer to mix the beverage in the beverage container.

Filter element

The present disclosure is related to filter elements and more specifically to filter elements for removing dust from air. In an embodiment, an inventive filter element includes a housing having a first side and a second side, filter material in the housing, a space between the filter material and the first side of the housing for forming a suction chamber, and at least one hole in the first side, whereby the area within the circumference of the side of the filter material facing the first side of the housing is larger than the area of at least one hole.

Enclosed offset pail mixer

The enclosed offset pail mixer is an invention which allows for safe, efficient and clean mixing of liquid solutions and liquid mechanical mixtures. The mixer includes a moveable head assembly that is constrained to two positions. In the operating position, the mixer geometry substantially encloses the moving parts of the mixer, preventing personnel from coming in contact with moving parts. The geometry also acts to contain dusts and vapors. A safety control circuit ensures that the impeller motor will not operate unless the vessel and the shroud are both in their respective operating position. In the operating position, the impeller shaft axis is strategically offset from the vessel axis to reduce large vortices and associated aeration. When the movable head is in the retracted position, the impeller is positioned over a removable drip cup to prevent residue from dripping on the floor or machine frame.

PROCESSING APPARATUS, SHEET MANUFACTURING APPARATUS, AND PROCESSING METHOD

A processing apparatus includes a deinking material supply portion that supplies a deinking material to defibrated fibers, and an agitating portion that agitates a mixture of the deinking material and the fibers. The agitating portion includes a chamber and a rotary blade that rotates in the chamber.

Frothing assembly and method of operating the same

An automated frothing assembly. The automated frothing assembly has a wand module that includes an elongate member having an inlet, one or more outlets, and a fluid passageway extending between and in fluid communication with the inlet and the plurality of outlets. At least one of the one or more outlets extends parallel to a vertical plane that includes the centerline of the elongate member and at an acute angle relative to a horizontal plane that is perpendicular to both the vertical plane and the centerline of the elongate member. The assembly further includes an actuator configured to be operatively coupled to the wand module and to drive the movement of at least a portion of the wand module along an axis, and an electronic controller configured to be electrically coupled to the actuator and to control the operation of the actuator to control the movement of the wand module.

Processing machine, such as a kneading or mixing machine

The processing machine (1) is adapted to carry a processing tool driven by a motor and includes a safety shield (4) adapted to at least partly shield the processing tool in relation to a user. The safety shield (4) is arranged displaceably away from its shielding position and a magnetically activatable safety arrangement (14) includes a safety switch (15) being operable between a passive state in which the motor (2) is allowed to operate and an activated state in which the motor is prevented from operation. The safety switch (15) is arranged to switch from its passive state to its activated state when the safety shield (4) is displaced away from its shielding position. At least one magnet (16) is arranged to hold said displaceable safety shield (4) in its shielding position and at the same time hold the safety switch (15) in its passive state.
