Provided are an enclosed stirrer using intermittent resonance and a method. The enclosed stirrer comprises: two pairs of parallel tension springs (1), a fixing bracket (2), an elastic cantilever beam (3), a cantilever beam pressure clamping device (6), an eccentric motor (4), an arc-shaped cushion block (5), and an enclosed container (8). The enclosed container (8) is mounted on the fixing bracket (2) by the tension spring (1). The elastic cantilever beam (3) is installed below the enclosed container (8) and is axially parallel to the enclosed container (8). One end of the elastic cantilever beam (3) is mounted on the fixing bracket (2) as a clamping end, the other end of the elastic cantilever beam (3) is connected to the eccentric motor (4) as a movable end. The arc-shaped cushion block (5) is connected above the eccentric motor (4). The arc-shaped cushion block (5) reciprocally strikes the bottom of the enclosed container (8) during operation of the eccentric motor (4).

A cup holder assembly includes a plurality of contacts that are configured to contact a cup so that a majority of an opening into the cup is uncovered by the cup holder, and the plurality of contacts are connectable to one or more cup holder guide rods of an assembly that dispenses and mixes or blends beverages

A clamping platform for a mechanical shaker, which allows automated release and fastening of microtiter plates that are subject to tolerances, includes at least two mounts arranged pairwise for the releasable fastening of the microtiter plates. The platform includes clamping jaws, on which a compression spring acts, actuatable with a link control having a linear drive. In conjunction with the compression spring, the geometry of the guide links allows compensation for the dimensional tolerances of the microtiter plates that are to be fixed by clamping. The spring force of the compression spring is determined such that the clamping jaws that are loaded by the compression spring exert the required clamping force in the deployed position onto the microtiter plates to be fixed.

A cosmetics mixing device for homogenizing suspensions of cosmetics includes a housing that defines an interior space. The housing is open-topped, and a block is positioned in the interior space. A plurality of recesses extends into the block from an upper face of the block. Each recess extends from proximate to a first endpoint to proximate to a second endpoint of the block. Each of a plurality of couplers is coupled to the block and is positioned in a respective recess. The coupler is configured to couple to a respective tubular container to retain the respective tubular container within the respective recess. A shaking module that is coupled to the housing and positioned in the interior space is operationally coupled to the block. The shaking module is positioned to shake the block to mix a cosmetic that is positioned in the respective tubular container.

A mixing machine includes a mixing head and at least one connection means for connecting a mixing container containing material to be mixed to said mixing head for forming a closed mixing container. The mixing head, as part of a pivotable assembly, is pivotably mounted with respect to a frame such that the closed mixing container formed from the mixing head and the mixing container can be pivoted relative to the frame for performing the mixing process. The mixing head carries at least one rotationally-driven mixing tool. The mixing head comprises a head plate having a connecting flange molded thereon which is configured as an annular disc and comprises a planar contact surface. At least two ring seals of differing diameters are arranged in said contact surface of the connecting flange at a spacing between each other, such that mixing containers with different connection diameters of their mixing head side can be connected to said mixing head. The at least one connection means is configured for gripping mixing containers which differ in the diameter of their connection sides.

A connecting chuck of a material cylinder for a mixer and a mixer are disclosed according to the present application. The chuck includes a chuck body, and a first axial position-limiting connector and a second axial position-limiting connector are provided on the chuck body. After the chuck body rotates around the outlet pipe of the material cylinder by a preset angle, the first axial position-limiting connector can cooperate with a first axial position-limiting cooperating member on the material cylinder, and the second axial position-limiting connector can cooperate with a second axial position-limiting cooperating member on the mixer, so that an inlet pipe of the mixer is compressed with the outlet pipe of the material cylinder for cooperation. Through the above structure, after use, the chuck body reversely rotates to an initial position and the mixer is replaced, and the chuck body is reusable without replacement.

Mixers for adhesives and sealants that include automatic stroke length adjustment for different sizes and configurations of adhesive and sealant cartridges are disclosed. The mixers include a sensor for detecting when a mixing impeller reaches the top of a cartridge and the bottom of a cartridge, which sends a signal to a main pressure cylinder to reverse direction. The stroke length of the mixer is automatically adjusted without the necessity of manual selection based upon a particular cartridge size.

A stand mixer includes: a base, the base including a bowl lift framework having first lift features; a support arm attached to the base and extending upwardly therefrom; a head attached to an upper end of the support arm and extending generally horizontally therefrom above the base; and a bowl assembly comprising a bowl and a skirt mounted to the bowl, the skirt including second lift features. The first lift features interact with the second lift features such that, when the bowl assembly is rotated relative to the bowl lift framework, the bowl assembly changes elevation relative to the base between raised and lowered positions.

A bowl assembly for a stand mixer includes a bowl with a skirt mounted to a lower end of the bowl. A plurality of radially-outwardly projecting nubs are mounted on the skirt and engage the stand mixer. The bowl assembly nubs may be spring-loaded and biased toward a radially-outward extended position.
