A microwavable container for use in a microwave oven that includes provisions to stir or mix food during microwave cooking. This mixing action is achieved by utilizing the motor of the microwave oven. Such mixing provides more even heating of food, and reduces the need to stop the microwave oven to manually stir food.

Disclosed is a dissolution mixer, which includes: a dissolution bath configured to accommodate a powder and a solvent for dissolving the powder; a powder input unit located at an outer side of the dissolution bath; an impeller installed to be rotatable inside the dissolution bath; and an anchor located inside the dissolution bath and having a passage of the powder inputted by the powder input unit and a powder spouting hole connected to the passage.

To provide a dispersing device that carries out an appropriate dispersion having a good yield, processing within an appropriate temperature range, and having a high power to disperse. The dispersing device disperses a mixture that is slurry or a liquid by causing the mixture to flow between a rotor and a stator toward the outer circumference by centrifugal force. It comprises a container, a cover assembly that closes an upper opening of the container, a stator that is fixed under the cover assembly, a rotor that is disposed to face the lower surface of the stator, a rotary shaft that rotates the rotor, a bearing that is located above the stator, and a spacer that is detachably disposed between the rotary shaft and the rotor to adjust a gap between the rotor and the stator.

An electromechanical nixtamalization system consisting of a rotary reactor, which turns on a horizontal axis and has a single-piece inner steel container without internal blades. It has resistors, a ceramic fiber layer, and a detachable stainless steel plate, and is fed by the maize grains introduced into an upper receiving hopper, and a cooling vat with a lid; and an interior and intermediate surface, as well as a cooling chamber located between the interior and intermediate walls, coated in a high-pressure polyurethane lining.

Provided is an ultra-dispersion mixer, for stirring a mixed material for producing a high-quality slurry for an electrode of a secondary battery within a short time by disposing a low-speed blade and a high-speed blade for stirring a mixed material in a chamber so as to easily and effectively disperse elements of the slurry of a secondary battery, supplied to a mixer during a procedure of preparing the slurry of a secondary battery produced by performing mixing procedures multiple times, and disposing blade parts having a plurality of stirring characteristics so as to realize various stirring characteristics in the mixed material on the high-speed blade to increase the dispersion of the mixed material while the mixed material circulates in a high-shear disperser of the chamber and to simultaneously increase the temperature of a supplied solution at the beginning of stirring of the mixed material in the chamber.

Mixer bucket (1) provided with a hopper (12) having a concave bottom portion (120) provided with an opening (122) arranged between a first and a second continuous portions (124)(126); a funnel-shaped member (30) being carried by the concave portion (120) so as to face the opening (122) and define a gravity discharge for mixture; the funnel-shaped member (30) being carried by the hopper (12) by means of a guide (128) aligned with the given direction (D); actuating means (40) being carried by the hopper (12) to move the funnel-shaped member (30) along the guide (128) between a first position (P1), where it faces the opening (122), and a second position (P2)(P3), lateral with respect to the opening (122) in correspondence of one of the first and second flanks (14)(16).

The present patent application describes a stirrer comprising a combination of at least one axially-conveying element and at least one radially-conveying element relative to the rotary shaft of the stirrer wherein the largest diameter of the at least one axially-conveying element is equal to or less than the inner diameter d.sub.i of the radially-conveying element. In one embodiment the stirrer according to the invention is a combination of one anchor stirrer with at least one inclined-blade stirrer. Furthermore the use of the stirrer according to the invention for the culture of cells in a dialysis method is described.

The occurrence of separation or reaggregation is suppressed in a suspension such as a battery electrode slurry. A battery electrode slurry distributing apparatus includes: a circulation pipe via which a positive electrode slurry is to be circulated; and a control unit that controls the supply of the positive electrode slurry to each of coaters. In a period in which either the coater is allowed to receive the supply of the positive electrode slurry, the control unit inhibits the supply of the positive electrode slurry to the other coater. The circulation pipe is structured in a polygonal loop. The coaters are connected to respective elbow portions formed in the circulation pipe via the pipes, respectively.

A stirring device includes a tank, a first stirring mechanism, a second stirring mechanism, and a flow blocking mechanism located in the tank and arranged on a side wall of the tank. A first stirring shaft of the first stirring mechanism is located in a middle part of the tank, and one end of the first stirring shaft is provided with a radial-flow stirring paddle located in the tank. A second stirring shaft of the second stirring mechanism is located on one side of the first stirring shaft. The second stirring shaft and the first stirring shaft are arranged in a radial direction of the tank. One end of the second stirring shaft is provided with an axial-flow stirring paddle located in the tank. The flow blocking mechanism is configured to block movement of materials in the tank.
