An apparatus for dispensing a mixture of a diluent and an additive for sanitation, cosmetic or cleaning applications. The apparatus includes a mixing unit for creating a mixture of the diluent and the additive, a diluent supply supplying the diluent to the mixing unit, an additive supply supplying the additive to the mixing unit, an outlet for dispensing the mixture. The diluent supply includes a pump arranged to increase the pressure of the diluent before the diluent enters the mixing unit.

A system and method for mixing and dispensing one or more pesticides includes a plurality of pesticide containers (5) for containing pesticide and at least one dosing device (7) associated with the pesticides containers and adapted to dose pesticide from the pesticide containers. A mixing device (9) receives pesticide from the dosing device and mixes the pesticide to form at least one of a pesticide solution and a pesticide mixture. A computer device (21) includes a processor and is adapted to receive an input from a user and based on that input operate the dosing device to dose a quantity of pesticide from one or more of the pesticide containers.

A sheet 100 of water-soluble material such as polyvinyl alcohol comprises a plurality of individual, sealed pockets 110, each pocket containing concrete admixture. The sheet is cut to size and attached to the interior of a formwork structure 200 with, for example, PVA glue. After concrete is poured into the formwork, covering the sheet 100, the sheet dissolves, releasing the admixture onto the surface of the concrete as it sets. In another arrangement, a sealed container 300 formed from a water-soluble material contains concrete admixture. The external wall of the container has a plurality of regions 320 where a thickness of the wall is reduced. The container is attached to interior walls of a formwork structure 200 or to reinforcing bars inside a formwork structure. After concrete is poured into the formwork, submerging the container, the container dissolves, with the thinner regions dissolving sooner, releasing the admixture into the concrete.

A mixing apparatus is for selective mixing of contents. The mixing apparatus has a body that defines an interior space. The body further has an aperture for permitting access to the interior space. The body has at least a portion that is collapsible and configured to be gripped and repositioned by a user to collapse a part of the body into the interior space to alter at least one of: the volume of the interior space; and the shape of the interior space. The mixing apparatus further has at least one mixing member located within the interior space that is configured and located so that the contents is forced against the at least one mixing member when the collapsible portion is gripped and repositioned by a user.

The element comprises: a hollow body; a receptacle (40) for receiving a cosmetic product, housed in the hollow body; a conduit (42) for supplying water into the receptacle (40); a nozzle (50) for dispensing the mixture of water and cosmetic product from the dispensing element.

The element comprises an inner water dispensing nozzle (44), connected to the water supply conduit (42), the inner nozzle (44) protruding into the receptacle (40) to define a chamber (46) for mixing water and the cosmetic product contained in the receptacle (40).

The element comprises: a hollow body (19); a delivery nozzle (32) for delivering a first liquid carried by the hollow body (19); a dispensing nozzle (50) for dispensing a second liquid carried by the hollow body (19);

The dispensing nozzle (50) is suitable for producing droplets having a diameter less than 1 mm, particularly comprised between 1 m and 1000 m and the delivery nozzle (32) is suitable for producing droplets having a diameter greater than 1 mm, and particularly comprised between 1 mm and 5 mm.
