A wireless sensor measures properties of a substance and transmits the properties to a remote wireless receiver. The wireless sensor can be fully enclosed within a container containing the substance, allowing remote monitoring of the properties of the substance without compromising integrity of a closed system.

The baby bottle with mixer is an infant feeding bottle with an integral, controllable internal mixer. The baby bottle with a mixer includes a conventional bottle having an open upper end and a closed lower end, and a conventional cap for releasably covering and sealing the open upper end of the bottle. An internal wall is mounted within the bottle such that a fluid-tight chamber is defined between a lower surface of the internal wall and the closed lower end of the bottle. An agitator is rotatably mounted on an upper surface of the internal wall, and the agitator is selectively driven by a motor, which is housed within the fluid-tight chamber. A speaker is mounted on the closed lower end of the bottle for playing music, soothing sounds or the like while the baby is being fed. A controller is in communication with the speaker and the motor.

A substrate treatment apparatus includes: a substrate treatment unit that treats a substrate with a treatment liquid containing ozone dissolved therein; a recovery tank in which the treatment liquid discharged from the substrate treatment unit is recovered; a recovery pipe that connects the substrate treatment unit to the recovery tank; a heating member that heats the treatment liquid to a first temperature in at least one of the recovery pipe and the recovery tank; a supply piping system that supplies the treatment liquid from the recovery tank to the substrate treatment unit; and an ozone gas pipe that supplies ozone gas to the supply piping system to mix the ozone gas in the treatment liquid passing through the supply piping system.

A mixing and thawing device (1) has a rocker drive (2) and a bag holder (3) for holding a bag (7). The bag holder (3) has a base part (8) and a lid part (9) that enclose a holding space (10) for the bag (7). A heating element (11) is arranged in the base part (8). Thus, the holding space (10) is designed as a heat-insulating closed chamber. Interconnected intermediate spaces (14, 15) are arranged between the bag (7) and the base part (8) and between the bag (7) and the lid part (9). One or more flow generators (16) are provided to generate a circulating fluid flow (17).

Systems and methods for automatic sampling, digestion, and joining a plurality of sample introduction systems of a sample for subsequent analysis by ICP-MS are described. A system embodiment may include: a digestion vessel configured to receive a sample from a pressurized sample source; a shutoff valve configured to control a flow of the sample to the digestion vessel; a first syringe pump configured to introduce a reagent to the sample in the digestion vessel; a thermally-controlled block surrounding the digestion vessel and configured to control the temperature of the digestion vessel, wherein the thermally-controlled block increases the temperature of the digestion vessel to a first set temperature before digestion and wherein the thermally-controlled block decreases the temperature of the digestion vessel to a second set temperature after digestion; a level sensor configured to measure a level of the sample within the digestion vessel; a second syringe pump configured to introduce deionized water to the digestion vessel after digestion, based at least in part on the level measured by the level sensor; and a connector valve configured to receive digested sample from the digestion vessel and transfer the digested sample to an analysis system.

A rubber extruding device for kneading and extruding unvulcanized rubber material, the rubber extruding device includes a mixer for kneading unvulcanized rubber material in a substantially closed mixing chamber, and an extruder comprising a rotatable screw shaft for kneading further the unvulcanized rubber material received from the mixer and for extruding the same, and at least one deaerator for sucking up a gas in the extruder.

The invention relates to a blender (10) for blending ingredients. The blender (10) comprises a base part (11) comprising a heating plate (22), and a container (13) for receiving said ingredients. The container (13) is detachable from the base part (11) and comprising a bottom part for contacting the heating plate (22). The base part (11) comprises a temperature sensor (23) for sensing the temperature of the bottom part. The temperature sensor (23) extends tends through the heating plate (22).

A fluid heating system includes a tank assembly having an interior surface bounding a chamber, the tank assembly including a sidewall encircling the chamber and extending between a first end and an opposing second end, the first end bounding an opening to the chamber, and a lid movable between a first position wherein the opening to the chamber is exposed and a second position wherein the lid is disposed over the opening. A collapsible bag is removably disposed within the chamber of the tank assembly, the collapsible bag bounding a compartment adapted to hold a fluid. A mechanism is provided for controlling the temperature of fluid within the collapsible bag when the collapsible bag is positioned within chamber of the tank assembly.

A mixing device is configured for the continuous provision of a gelling mass for a molding machine. The mixing device includes an inlet, an outlet and a conduit section which is situated between the inlet and the outlet and into which at least one admixing conduit runs out, via which admixing conduit a substance to be admixed can be fed such that the substance to be admixed is mixed with a base mass which is fed through the inlet, in a mixing region in the conduit section. The mixing device is configured in a manner such that the spatial distance between the outlet and the mixing region in which the substance to be admixed is mixed with the base mass, can be changed. A molding machine with such a mixing device and to a method for processing a flowable and gellable mass are provided.
