Mixer comprises a cabinet (1a) with upper lid (2a) and rear support (3) with fixed pulley (4) and drive motor (5), on whose axis the rotor (6a) is mounted. Rotor base (6a) receives a bearing (9) for turning of cup holder (7). Rotor disk (6a) has two side flaps for rollers (10) of the rotation belt (11a) of the cup holder (7) which has a shaft (12) and bearing (9) fastened on the rotor base (6a). Pulley (14) provokes the turning of cup holder (7) by way of the belt (11a). Cup holder (7) is a hollow cylinder with eccentric turning that cause strong agitation of the recipient with liquid. Turning movement of the cup holder (7) occurs on the two shafts which employ only one belt (11a). Mixer has two or four cup holders (7) and one or three tensioner rollers (16) on rotor base (6b) or (6c).

The present invention provides a reagent mixing device, which comprises a driving device, a transport device and a rotating part, wherein the transport device comprises a conveying mechanism for conveying a reagent kit and a mixing mechanism for mixing a reagent; the conveying mechanism is driven by the driving device to move relative to the mixing mechanism; the rotating part and mixing mechanism are in transmission matching; the conveying mechanism and the mixing mechanism are sleeved with each other to form a bearing structure. The present invention further provides a reagent mixing method. The reagent mixing device is small in size, smart in structure, easy to assemble and low in manufacturing cost. The reagent mixing method provided by the present invention is simple and reliable, high in overall operation reliability, and has very high application values in such analysis and test fields as full-automatic chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzers and biochemical analyzers.

A mixing apparatus includes a motor. A first plate is connected to the motor. The first plate includes a spiral groove. A second plate is disposed on the first plate. The second plate includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The second plate is disposed on the first plate. A plurality of clamping posts is disposed on the second plate. Each of the plurality of clamping posts is connected to the spiral groove through the second surface of the second plate, and the plurality of clamping posts is configured to guide and secure a vessel to a center of the first surface of the second plate, by rotating the first and second plates with respect to each other. A content of the vessel is mixed by rotating the first plate, the second plate, and the vessel about their respective centers.

A lab rack rotator includes a motor coupled to a shaft arranged to rotate in at least one direction in response to the motor. One or more mounts are located along the surface of the shaft and are configured to receive a lab sample rack which holds a plurality of lab samples contained in lab sample containers such as test tubes. Rotation of the shaft permits inversion of the plurality of lab samples, for instance whole blood samples. The lab rack rotator increases the number of lab samples that may be agitated in an automated process while decreasing the amount of time required for necessary pre-testing agitation of samples.

An apparatus for dispensing a plurality of liquids, in particular colorants for paints, comprising a support, such as a turntable or a linear table, defining a plurality of positions and a plurality of containers holding a liquid, mounted on the support at the positions, and provided with a pump and/or a valve for dispensing the liquid from the container. At least some of the containers form, together with a respective liquid and pump and/or valve, a cartridge, which cartridge is releasably mounted in the apparatus.

A cell bag rotator is constructed to slowly agitate a plurality of cell bags by rotation along a rotation axis that is at least partially horizontal. The cell bag rotator comprises a plurality of plates to which a respective cell bag is attached. The cell bag rotator is suitable for mixing cells with particles for performing various types of subsequent cell therapy processes on the cells.

[Problem] To provide a agitation/defoaming method and device with which both of uniformity in dispersion of object to be processed and reduction of air bubbles can be achieved with high precision.

[Solution] Provided is a agitation/defoaming method for producing orbital and spin motions of a container containing object to be processed by a device provided with orbital and spin drive motors that can independently control the velocities of the orbital and spin motions. Both defoaming and agitating treatments with high precision can be achieved by respectively performing a reverse rotation superimposition processing, wherein the rotational frequency of the spin drive motor is obtained by superimposing the first rotational frequency in a direction opposite to the direction of the orbital motion on the frequency of the orbital motion, and a same rotation superimposition processing, wherein the rotational frequency of the spin drive motor is obtained by superimposing the second rotational frequency in the same direction as the direction of the orbital motion on the frequency of the orbital motion, at least once.
