DISPENSING SYSTEM AND METHOD
A delivery system is provided that includes a device having a body extending along a longitudinal axis between proximal and distal ends. The body includes a proximal chamber, a distal chamber and a wall between the chambers. The body includes a first port in communication with the proximal chamber and a second port in communication with the distal chamber. A shaft is movably positioned within the body. The shaft extends through the wall and includes a proximal plunger positioned within the proximal chamber and a distal plunger positioned within the distal chamber. Pressure introduced through an opening in the proximal end moves the shaft such that the proximal plunger moves a fluid within the proximal chamber out of the first port and the distal plunger moves a fluid within the distal chamber out of the second port to simultaneously actuate a bone filler dispenser. Systems and methods are also provided.
Dispensing assembly including an additive mixing device
A dispensing system includes a container containing a flowable base formulation to be dispensed, an additive mixing device, and an actuable pump engine which draws the flowable base formulation from the container and pumps it through the mixing device. The additive mixing device includes a body with an internal cavity, an additive ingredient within the cavity, and a flow path/mixing chamber between an input and an output. With each pump of the device the additive ingredient is introduced into, and mixed with, a flow of the base formulation traveling through the mixing device. Multiple additive mixing devices may be interchangeable for different formulations, and the mixing devices may be refillable.
TURBULENCE MEMBER AND HEAT EXCHANGER USING SAME, AND WATER HEATER
A turbulence member is made of a flat plate member configured to be inserted into a heat-transfer tube having a substantially elliptical cross-sectional shape. The flat plate member is a generate turbulence in a fluid flowing inside the heat-transfer tube by a plurality of projected pieces projected on both front and back surfaces. A rotation preventing piece configured to prevent rotation of the flat plate member inside the heat-transfer tube is provided in at least one of both side edges along the flow passage direction in the flat plate member. The rotation preventing piece is provided at a predetermined angle to the flat plate member so that a forefront comes into contact with a tube wall inner circumferential surface of the heat-transfer tube. A space through which the fluid can circulate is formed between the rotation preventing piece and the tube wall inner circumferential surface.
WATER DISPENSERS FOR DISPENSING CARBONIZED WATER AND METHOD
The invention relates to a carbonized water dispensing device (1) provided with a carbonized water conditioning chamber (2), which conditioning chamber (2) is provided downstream of the carbonator (7) and upstream of the carbonized water dispensing outlet (5), for receiving a mixture of carbonized water mixed with unresolved CO2, which conditioning chamber (2) is dimensioned to hold a single serve of carbonized water with a headspace, and which carbonized water conditioning chamber (2) is provided with an outlet valve (17) and a gas outlet (18). According to the invention, the carbonized water dispensing device (1) is configured to, upon receiving a beverage dispensing order, provide the empty carbonized water conditioning chamber (2) with a single serve volume of carbonized water, and hold the single serve of carbonized water prior to dispensing the single serve volume of carbonized water.
STORAGE AND MIXING SYSTEM WITH COMPRESSIBLE INTERNAL CARTRIDGE FOR PASTY STARTING COMPONENTS
Storage and mixing systems and methods for pasty multicomponent polymethylmethacrylate bone cements, the systems and methods comprise a first tubular cartridge with a first cylindrical internal space containing a first starting component, a first dispensing plunger, a second tubular cartridge that is arranged within the first tubular cartridge. The external wall of the second cartridge touches against the internal wall of the first cartridge and is attached to the internal wall of the first cartridge, whereby the second cartridge contains a second starting component and has a second dispensing plunger arranged in it, whereby a pressing device with a clamping edge for compressing the second cartridge that can be propelled axially in the internal space of the first cartridge is arranged, as seen from the cartridge head, behind the first dispensing plunger and the second dispensing plunger. The pressing device can be propelled appropriately in the direction of the cartridge head such that the second cartridge is being progressively compressed axially during the motion of the pressing device such that, in the process, the first dispensing plunger and the second dispensing plunger are propelled in the direction of the cartridge head.
FINE BUBBLE GENERATING DEVICE
A fine bubble generating device is provided, including: a main body, having an inlet, an outlet and a venturi tube mechanism located between the inlet and the outlet, the venturi tube mechanism having a neck portion communicating with outside; a bubble fining mechanism, having at least one passage which is smaller than the inlet in cross-sectional area, the at least one passage communicating with and between the venturi tube mechanism and the outlet. The bubble fining mechanism includes a first vortex member having at least one first slant hole and a second vortex member having at least one second slant hole. The at least one first slant hole and the at least one second slant hole are inclined toward opposite directions, and the first vortex member and the second vortex member is disposed between the venturi tube mechanism and the outlet.
Thermal fogger for creating stable aerosols
An improved thermal fogging device includes an extended heat transfer surface located within the aerosolization chamber that increases the mixing of the liquid chemical particles and the hot gases in the aerosol to improve aerosolization. The extended heat transfer surface also helps to increase the heat transfer to the forming aerosol in the aerosolization chamber.
Mixer and mixing device for an exhaust system
A mixer (19), for an exhaust system (7) for mixing and/or evaporating a liquid (13) in an exhaust gas flow (8), especially for an SCR system (9), includes a plurality of guide blades (21) arranged in a star-shaped pattern. Simplified manufacturability of the mixer (19) is achieved if the guide blades (21) are connected each with a centrally arranged core (23) radially on the inside and if the guide blades (21). The guide blades (21) and the core (23) are formed by an integral cast part (24).
CHEMICAL LIQUID PREPARATION METHOD OF PREPARING A CHEMICAL LIQUID FOR SUBSTRATE PROCESSING, CHEMICAL LIQUID PREPARATION UNIT PREPARING A CHEMICAL LIQUID FOR SUBSTRATE PROCESSING, AND SUBSTRATE PROCESSING SYSTEM
A substrate processing system includes a chemical liquid preparation unit preparing a chemical liquid to be supplied to a substrate and a processing unit which supplies the chemical liquid, prepared by the chemical liquid preparation unit, to the substrate. The chemical liquid preparation unit supplies an oxygen-containing gas, containing oxygen gas, to a TMAH-containing chemical liquid, containing TMAH (tetramethylammonium hydroxide), to make the oxygen-containing gas dissolve in the TMAH-containing chemical liquid.
MIXING MODULE AND STEAM HEATER
A static mixing module for mixing of material includes an inlet end and an outlet end, between which a longitudinal axis extends. A plurality of angularly spaced mixing channels extendingbetween the inlet end and the outlet end, each two adjacent mixing channels being separated by an intermediate wall. At least one mixing element is provided within each mixing channel. Each intermediate wall has a uniform or an essentially uniform wall thickness (t) as measured in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. A steam heater is also disclosed which comprises said static mixing module.
