Disclosed are various embodiments of a rocker-style treatment tank equipped with instrumentation. In one embodiment, a rocker treatment tank includes a dasher configured to oscillate within treatment liquid in the rocker treatment tank. The dasher includes a dasher shaft, one or more dasher arms coupled to the dasher shaft, and at least one dasher blade coupled to the dasher arm(s). The rocker treatment tank also includes one or more sensors configured to provide data directly or indirectly indicating a torque transmitted to the dasher to effect oscillation.

A truffle configured cosmetic article which includes a protective outer shell, an inner volume of cosmetic and a capsule positioned in the cosmetic containing active ingredients. An appliance is adapted to receive the article, heat and blend the article to produce a warm skin formulation which can be applied by the user. The article is produced with the use of a mold. A combination of wax and coconut oil is melted and applied to most of the interior surface of the mold, defining a volume into which a cosmetic is applied as well as a capsule additive. The article is then sealed with additional wax and coconut oil material. The article is then released and ready for use in the appliance or to be wrapped.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of gel material processing, and discloses processing equipment and a processing technology of a gel microsphere material. The processing equipment comprises a mixing barrel, wherein a motor is installed at the top of the mixing barrel; a rotating rod is arranged in the mixing barrel; the rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor; a fan-shaped impeller is installed at the bottom end of the rotating rod; the bottom of the rotating rod communicates with a gas conveying pipe; a shunting ring is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the mixing barrel; the bottom of the rotating rod is fixedly connected with the fan-shaped impeller; and the gas conveying pipe is arranged at the bottom of the mixing barrel to inflate a raw material solution in the mixing barrel, when bubbles float in the solution, the solution can be stirred, and then under the cooperation of the fan-shaped impeller at the bottom of the rotating rod, the raw material solution of the gel microsphere material is stirred more quickly and more uniformly in the mixing barrel compared with the raw material solution only stirred by the fan-shaped impeller.

Cosmetic blending devices for producing a cosmetic liquid from a solid-shell cosmetic ingredient capsule. The cosmetic blending devices include a lid, a base, a blending element configured to blend the capsule, and a drive mechanism configured to actuate the blending element. The cosmetic blending device may include a thermal element configured to change a temperature of the capsule. The thermal element may melt the capsule. The solid-shell cosmetic ingredient capsule comprises a shell defining an enclosed inner volume, and cosmetic material included in the enclosed inner volume. Methods of using the cosmetic blending devices comprise placing the solid-shell cosmetic ingredient capsule into the cosmetic blending device and blending the capsule to produce the cosmetic liquid. Methods of forming the solid-shell cosmetic ingredient capsule comprise forming a portion of the shell, adding the cosmetic material to the portion of the shell, and forming the remaining portion of the shell.

A tattoo ink mixing apparatus has a housing having a cavity, a plunger movable between a first position and a second position, and a dynamic member disposed in the cavity and adapted to engage with the plunger distal end. The dynamic member moves in response to movement of the plunger and alternatively creates a suction force and an expulsion force in the opening of the distal end of the housing as the plunger moves between its first and second positions.

An apparatus configured to process foodstuff materials can include an exterior tube, an inner shaft, and multiple differently shaped protrusions. The exterior tube can have a foodstuff inlet, an outlet, and a longitudinal axis, and can be configured to facilitate the conveyance of foodstuff materials along a material passage from the foodstuff inlet to the outlet. The inner shaft can be located within the exterior tube, can extend along the longitudinal axis, and can combine with the exterior tube to define the material passage. The inner shaft can be configured to be rotationally driven. The multiple differently shaped protrusions can be coupled to and extend from the inner shaft, and these differently shaped protrusions can be configured to process the foodstuff materials when the inner shaft is rotationally driven. Processing can include conveying, agitating, and/or hydrating the foodstuff materials.
