Exemplary embodiments contained herein relate to smokeless products containing one or more non-tobacco plant materials and methods of manufacture thereof. Exemplary embodiments are related to the method of manufacture of various chew products containing non-tobacco ingredients including plant material and a starch, a sweetener, natural and artificial flavors, a pH adjuster, solvent, salt, and nicotine and methods of manufacture thereof.

A mixing apparatus is configured to efficiently input noodles coated with an additive to a receiving tray, with no need to perform weighing again after the noodles are input to the receiving tray. The mixing apparatus includes at least two hoppers that each house falling noodles and that allows the noodles to fall through rotation of the hoppers. A supply device supplies a sauce to the noodles in the hoppers, and the two hoppers are spaced from one another in the falling direction.

Providing a mixing apparatus capable of efficiently input noodles coated with an additive to a receiving tray, and having no need to perform weighing again after the noodles are input to the receiving tray.

The mixing apparatus 8 includes: a hopper 30 that houses the falling noodles and that allows noodles to fall while rotating; and a supply device 60 that supplies a sauce to the noodles in the hopper 30, and at least two hopper 30 are provided in a falling direction.

At a device for treating a product in a receiving trough (1) which has at least one opening (5) for receiving the product, the treatment of the product is to take place by inner and outer blades (8; 9) which are arranged in the receiving trough (1) and can be driven separately by drives (14; 16). The drive (14) for the at least one inner blade (8) should be located on the same side of the receiving trough (1) as the drive (16) for the at least one outer blade (9).

A mixing bowl tilting assembly includes a support frame that can be positioned on a support surface. A pair of uprights is each pivotally coupled to the support frame. Each of the uprights is positionable in a deployed position having each of the uprights being vertically oriented on the support frame. A pair of ratchets is each of the ratchets is integrated into a respective one of the uprights. A mixing bowl is provided and the mixing bowl can pour contents of the mixing bowl when the mixing bowl is tipped. A pair of arms is each pivotally coupled to the bowl and each of the arms engages a respective one of the ratchets. Each of the ratchets rotates when the mixing bowl is tipped to pour the ingredients without requiring a user to support the mixing bowl.

A mixer for mixing a fluid and for dispensing the fluid into another container is disclosed. The mixer includes a first container configured to receive and hold a fluid, a stand including a base portion and an upright portion, and a bracket configured to receive and support the first container. The upright portion of the stand extends vertically up from the base portion. The bracket includes two structural members connected by at least one cross bar. The bracket is rotatably attached to the stand via an axle to allow the first container to rotate relative to the stand.

In order to provide a feed mixture, a feed mixer is proposed which has a container. The container has a bottom and a wall which is connected to the bottom and delimits a filling opening, the area of which is greater than the area of the bottom. A rotatable auger is provided which can be rotated about an axis, the axis running substantially perpendicularly with respect to the bottom. The feed mixer has a pivoting device which is intended and suitable for pivoting the container during a mixing operation, in particular after a predefined time period or after a predefined number of revolutions of the at least one auger.
