A blender system includes a bottle, a voice-controlled virtual assistant, and a container for blending ingredients from a container with a fluid. The bottle includes a blending chamber with an opening to receive a fluid and a shoulder about the opening. The voice-controlled virtual assistant is configured to communicate with a user. The lid is configured to couple with the bottle and includes a container receiver. The container receiver is configured to receive the container and position a lip of the container against the shoulder when the lid is coupled to the bottle. The container receiver is further configured to press the container towards the opening while the shoulder holds the lip stationary to discharge the ingredients from the container into the fluid in the blending chamber. The voice-controlled virtual assistant receives commands from the user and operates the blender system based on the commands.

A blender system for blending ingredients from a container with a fluid includes a bottle, a liquid heating device, and a container. The bottle has a blending chamber with an opening to receive a fluid and a shoulder about the opening. The lid is configured to couple with the bottle and includes a container receiver. The container receiver is configured to receive the container and position a lip of the container against the shoulder when the lid is coupled to the bottle. The container receiver is further configured to press the container towards the opening while the shoulder holds the lip stationary to discharge the ingredients from the container into the fluid in the blending chamber. The liquid heating mechanism heats the fluid in the blending chamber.

A two-component paint system (1) comprises a medium pressure canister (10) with a paint, at least one solvent and at least one propellant, and a high pressure canister (20) with a hardener, at least one solvent, at least one propellant and an inert gas or inert gas mixture. An adapter (30) is configured to transfer the content of the high pressure canister (20) into the content of the medium pressure canister (10). The internal pressure of the high pressure canister (20) is at least 2 bars higher than the internal pressure of the medium pressure canister (10).

To sum up, by using the shaker for mixing liquids (1-7) (e.g. shampoo, soap, etc) with water right before use, an optimal dose of the liquid is used and appropriate solution is used. A dissolved mixture is applied to the hair/body to most significant part immediatelythe hair roots and the scalp. It works beneficial for the hair, especially the hair ends, preventing dry and split ends as the e.g. shampoo is not applied directly. The mixture is distributed more evenly throughout the hair, without adding additional water and washing out the unused shampoo. The foam evolves quicker and is greater, which makes the washing easier. The shaker enables the user to use multiple liquids at once if needed. The amount of the liquid used is decreased to an optimal dose for the user and is therefore also eco-friendly, as no excessive amount of liquid is used. The invention enables the user to close tap water/shower during use and therefore uses less water and is eco-friendly. With same advantages the shaker is used in pet care and with other liquids.

Provided are methods and devices for dissolving solid protein compositions, such as solid compositions comprising fibrinogen, in an aqueous solvent. The methods comprise use of a closed container containing a volume of solid fibrinogen composition and a head space wherein the pressure within the headspace is sub-atmospheric. Aqueous solvent is introduced into the container while maintain the sub-atmospheric pressure, and subsequent to addition of the solvent, the size of the headspace is decreased to bring the pressure to atmospheric pressure. The devices are suitable for use in the disclosed method.

Described is an automated reagent mixing container for separately storing and automatically mixing together at least two stored reagent components.

The present invention is directed to a multi-compartment medical device for segregated storage and on demand mixing of at least two components and expression of the resulting mixture from the device. The mixing device comprises a syringe having an open end and outlet and containing a first component; and a cap with a fixed outer body and an expandable chamber contained therein, wherein said cap is removably attached to the outlet of the syringe and a cross-section of the cap is larger than a syringe cross-section and the cap is shorter than the syringe.

Described is an automated reagent mixing container for separately storing and automatically mixing together at least two stored reagent components.

A fluid delivery system for dispensing a liquid from a sealed container directly into a closed chamber comprises a container containing a liquid component of bone cement and plugged with a plug, and a closed chamber comprising a receiving port for receiving the sealed container, wherein the receiving port is configured to receive the liquid component in direct response to manual insertion of the sealed container through the receiving port using an open loop system.

Systems for a plastic pump/actuator capable of containing and pumping organic solvents and lubricants and having a more desirable lubricity within the system. The system has at least two cylinders, with plungers therein, oppositely disposed from each other and configured to operably connect to a pump.
