The main container has a first upper opening. The container system also includes a storage repository coupled to main container, and which stores one or more second substances. The storage repository includes a lip defining a second upper opening, which has an outside diameter smaller than the diameter of the first upper opening. Additionally, the container system includes a mixing blade having an outside diameter smaller than the diameter of the first upper opening. The mixing blade also has a plurality of openings. The container system includes a releasable liner placed over the storage repository's lip, and the storage repository's lip forms a seal with a lower surface of the releasable liner.

A medicine container for medicine substances which can be mixed with one another includes a container body, a stopper and a mixing element. The container body has a first end with a stopper opening and a second end with a base having an outlet. The stopper is displaceable between the ends. A a mixing chamber for receiving the medicine substances is delimited by a portion of an inner casing surface of the container body, a side of the stopper and the base. The mixing element can be disposed in the mixing chamber. The medicine container is adapted to discharge the medicine substances from the medicine container by displacement of the stopper in the direction of the outlet. The stopper is adapted to receive the mixing element at least partially by a recess. The invention further relates to a method for operating such a medicine container.

A physically independent agitator for insertion in a liquid container is disclosed. An example agitator includes a central body having sufficient density to be immersed in the liquid in the container. The agitator includes a plurality of blades supported by the body. Each of the blades has a proximal end attached to the body, and an outer edge having a triangular cross section. The blades are propelled by the liquid to cause the agitator to spin when the container is shaken.

The technology includes a device for mixing a liquid and a powdered substance in a vessel. The device includes a body having a planar surface with a grid that includes a plurality of openings and at least two elongated apertures arranged in a circumferential direction. The openings and the elongated apertures are co-planar, with the at least two elongated apertures having a cross-sectional area that is more than twice as large as a cross-sectional area of the openings of the grid. The mixing device further includes a plurality of connection portions that extend between the grid and the rim to mechanically connect the grid and the rim. The connection portions are arranged so that at least two apertures are defined between the rim and the periphery of the grid.

A mixing assembly includes a container having a wall that defines an interior chamber within which a product is received. A mixing structure is received within the interior chamber and mixes the product. The mixing structure has a body portion that extends along a body axis between a first end and a second end. The first end of the body portion has a first cross-sectional size. The second end of the body has a second cross-sectional size that is larger than the first cross-sectional size. The body portion has a wall that extends helically about the body axis between the first end and the second end. The wall defines a channel that extends helically about the body axis. An end axis extends perpendicular to the body axis radially outwardly to an exterior of the body portion through an opening defined by the wall.

The invention relates to a multiple-chamber container (1, 1*) for storing and mixing a multi-component liquid coating or adhesive system (M), comprising a first chamber (10) for a first mixing component (B) and at least one other chamber (20) for another mixing component (H), the first chamber (10) and the at least one other chamber (20) being separated by at least one separating wall (30) in liquid-tight fashion and the separating wall (30) comprising a pierceable separating layer (40). The multiple-chamber container further comprises at least one piercing element (50) for piercing the pierceable separating layer (40) in such a way that the first and the one other mixing component (B, H) mix in the first or the at least one other chamber (10, 20). The multiple-chamber container (1, 1*) is characterized in that the at least one other chamber (20) is coaxial to the first chamber (10), the separating layer (40) being partially formed in the separating wall (30). The piercing element (50) is hollow, in particular hollow-cylindrical, and has at least two longitudinally offset openings (51) for introducing either the first or the other mixing component (B, H) into the chamber (10, 20) of the respective other mixing component (H, B).

A food mixing device includes a main housing, a food sensing module and a signal control module. The food sensing module is provided in the mixing portion of the main housing for detecting a temperature and predetermined ingredients of food materials mixed by the food mixing device. The signal control module is provided in the receiving cavity of the main housing and electrically connected to the food sensing module. The is arranged to transmit information about detected temperature and detected food ingredients to at least one of a built-in display unit, an external electronic device and an external audio device.

There is provided an apparatus and a method for producing a play compound and the play compound itself which, in one embodiment is a compound which sufficiently fluid to be pliable and is typically cold and slimy to the touch. The apparatus and a method provide a powder and liquid to a user, which can be a non-skilled person and thereby allow the mixing of the powder and liquid together by that person to form the play compound outside of a factory environment whilst ensuring that the play compound which is formed has the desired characteristics. Most typically the user which performs the mixing can be the end user, such as a child, who will play with the compound and so the formation of the play compound forms a new part of the play experience.

The present invention involves the use of a small profile device for preparation and/or delivery of cold slurry into the human body. The cold slurry can be generated within the device itself or within a separate small chamber, both of which produce a cold slurry using a cooling source and an injectable fluid. The delivery device provides continued agitation to the fluid/slurry through rotation and/or vibration of blades within the device. The fluid/cold slurry is cooled/kept cool through the use of an external cooling device, such as a cooling sleeve, that at least partially surrounds the delivery device. The cooling sleeve can cool or maintain the temperature of the cold slurry through a number of mechanisms. The cold slurry can be delivered using a device in accordance with the present invention to any tissue inside the body, including subcutaneous fat, visceral fat, and brown fat.
