An apparatus, vortex generator assembly and method for automated cell lysis and nucleic acid purification and processing. The vortex generator assembly includes sample holder having a lysis well, at least one wash well, and an elution well. The vortex generator assembly also includes a sample holder cover having a plurality of vibration rods for creating a vortex in the wells of the sample holder. The apparatus includes motor operating a rotating cam to cause the vibration rods to vibrate and create the vortex in a well holding fluid and magnetic beads, wherein the vortexing speed is sufficient to overcome the magnetic attraction between the beads and disperse the beads in solution, to collect nucleic acids such as DNA.

A material mixing and supplying system is provided. The material mixing and supplying system includes a feeding module, at least three mixing and supplying barrels, a supply module, and a control unit, wherein the three mixing and supplying barrels are capable of mixing and supplying the mixed material. The supplying time of the mixed material is greater than a sum of the feeding time and the mixing time. A total operation number of the at least three mixing and supplying barrels is determined by a set amount of mixed material to be supplied by the material mixing and supplying system, and a total time to finish supplying the set amount of mixed material is determined by the total operation number.

A dispenser system and method for creating and dispensing one or more solutions formed from a plurality of separate and distinct solid products which are eroded or dissolved in a liquid. The one or more solutions may include at least one of a first solid product and a second solid product, dissolved in the liquid. The dispenser system may include one or more dividers within a solution forming assembly of the dispenser system to maintain separation between the first solid product and the second solid product.

The present invention provides an ultrafine bubble-containing liquid producing apparatus capable of reducing the possibility of intermitting supply of a UFB-containing liquid. An ultrafine bubble-containing liquid producing apparatus includes producing units that produce an ultrafine bubble-containing liquid containing ultrafine bubbles by using a liquid supplied from a liquid introducing unit and deliver the produced ultrafine bubble-containing liquid to a liquid delivering unit. The producing units include a plurality of ultrafine bubble generating units capable of operating independently. Each of the plurality of ultrafine bubble generating units is provided to be capable of independently switching between communicating with and being disconnected from the liquid introducing unit and the liquid delivering unit.

A coolant distribution system uses two premixed streams of coolant at either extreme of a concentration range, and mixes these two streams in the correct percentage to obtain the desired concentration. Mixing the two streams follows a pulse width approach, and the system may use a manifold to deliver fluid to multiple machines.

The application relates to a raw material mixing apparatus, including mixing drums and a feed pipe, each of the two mixing drums is provided with a feed port and a discharge port, the feed ports of the two mixing drums are both communicated with the feed pipe, and a switching valve is arranged on the feed pipe; a first rotating disc and a second rotating disc are rotatably connected at two ends of the mixing drum respectively, and a stirring assembly is connected between the first rotating disc and the second rotating disc in the axial direction of the mixing drum; the stirring assembly includes a central stirring element and a plurality of non-central stirring elements radially arranged between inner side walls of the mixing drums and outer side walls of the central stirring element.

Preloading a plurality of feed types of a feed mix for livestock in a mixing plant. Feed types are conveyed towards a mixer. Bunkers selectively discharge one of the feed types on a loading conveyor. A controller controls a preloading weight of the feed types to be discharged onto the loading conveyor. Feed types are individually discharge onto dump spots of the loading conveyor at the bunkers and terminate when a predetermined total weight is reached or interrupt when a maximum preloading capacity is reached or feed reaches the end of the loading conveyor. Feed types may be individually discharged from the bunkers onto the dump spots and the main component loaded into the mixer by a loading vehicle, such that the weight of the main portion and the weight of the supplemental portion add up to a programmed total weight of the main component.
