SYSTEM HAVING A TUBE SHAFT IMPELLER AND AN ASSOCIATED METHOD THEREOF
A device (30) includes a base connector (32) having an opening (33) and an impeller connector (64) coupled to the base connector (32). The impeller connector (64) has a through-passage (66) aligned with the opening (33) of the base connector (32). Further, the device (30) includes a flexible tube (34) having a first end (36) and a second end (40), where the first end (36) of the flexible tube (34) is coupled to the impeller connector (64). Furthermore, the device (30) includes a seal component (38) and an impeller (42) coupled to the second end (40) of the flexible tube (34). Additionally, the device (34) includes an enclosure (46) disposed enclosing the impeller (42), the flexible tube (34), the impeller connector (64), and the base connector (32).
Universal Mixture Maker
A volumetric instrument serving as a universal mixture maker. The instrument comprises fixed-shape solute cups that can be submerged in and fastened to solvent containers. The design allows a human operator to run an iterative method which finds a solution to a set of multivariate equations that would otherwise require situation-specific analytical calculations and the use of weighing scales. The iterative method can solve for one or more variables including solute volume, solvent volume, final mixture volume, and final solute concentration level. Cups and containers act as a mechanical calculator with a single parameter for the operator to manually adjust: how much of a solute cup to submerge in a solvent container. The mechanical calculator reduces mixture equations down to two markings for the operator to visually align: an output mixture marking on a cup, and a volumetric marking on a container.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECEIVING A SINGLE-USE VESSEL
A system for receiving a single-use vessel containing a mixing device has a support structure adapted to receive the single-use vessel and a drive-unit adapted to power, to control, or to power and control a mixing of contents of the single-use vessel when the single-use vessel is arranged in the support structure. The support structure and the drive-unit are provided as separate components that may be arranged both in an operating position, where the drive-unit is connectable to the mixing device of the single-use bag in the support structure, and in a separated position, where the drive-unit is separated from the support structure. The drive-unit comprises a tag reader that, in the operating position, is arranged to read a vessel tag of the single-use vessel arranged in the support structure.
CLOSED-CELL POLYURETHANE STRUCTURE METHOD AND SYSTEM
A container, that includes a transparent portion, which reveals an interior portion of the container, an access aperture communicating with the interior portion of the container, and a lid adjacent the access aperture. A first liquid component is placed into the interior portion. A second liquid component is poured into the interior portion. The lid of the container is closed to fully enclose the first and second liquid components. The components are agitated until the first and second liquid components are a mixture of uniform color, without an appearance of marbling and swirling, when viewed through the transparent portion of the container. The lid is opened to expose the mixture of uniform color. The mixture of uniform color is poured from the container into a receiving structure. The mixture of uniform color is transformed into a closed-cell polyurethane structure within the receiving structure.
Storage, mixing and dispensing device
Various embodiments are described herein for a device for storing first and second ingredient materials, mixing the ingredient materials to form an adhesive material and dispensing the adhesive material. Various embodiments are also described herein for a method of making the device and a method of using the device.
Portable liquid mixing device capable of mixing various liquids
The present invention relates to a portable liquid mixing device capable of mixing different types of various liquids, and the different types of various liquids may include various beverages. The present invention includes a plurality of containers configured to contain respective specific liquids, a selection unit configured to select any one of the plurality of containers, a control unit configured to control the introduction of a selected liquid into a mixing container, and a mixing unit configured to mix various liquids introduced into the mixing container. According to the present invention, different types of liquids may be mixed together. In particular, beverages having various flavors are put into respective containers, mixed together and then drunk. Furthermore, a scale is marked on the surface of the mixing container, and thus the amount of liquid may be accurately measured, so that liquids may be mixed at an accurate ratio.
Bioreactors
Miniature stirred tank bioreactor and system; the bioreactor configured for single use culturing providing unobstructed culturing volume with sensors, probes and ports using minimally invasive placement in-wall or across the wall methods; the bioreactor further capable of containing scaffolds and features for culturing cells and tissue, including structures providing surfaces for cell growth, and screens for retaining microparticles during media exchange.
AGITATION DEVICE AND AGITATION METHOD
An agitation device includes a holder that holds a cartridge containing a liquid on a placement surface angled with respect to a horizontal plane; and a rotator that rotates the holder to agitate the liquid.
CONTAINER FOR BONE MATERIAL STORAGE, MIXING AND DELIVERY
A container for mixing bone material is provided. The container includes an interior surface for receiving the bone material and an exterior surface having a distal end and proximal end. The distal end of the exterior surface includes a locking member configured to enclose the bone material onto the interior surface of the container. The proximal end of the exterior surface of the container contains a port configured to receive fluid to mix the bone material. A method of using the container to mix and/or deliver the bone material is also provided.
MIXING AND DISPENSING CONTAINER
A mixing and dispensing container for mixing and dispensing dental materials. The mixing and dispensing container includes: a plunger; an open-ended liquid receptacle adapted to receive the plunger; and a main body with a proximal end, a distal end, a chamber open at the proximal end and an aperture in the distal end. The chamber is adapted to receive the liquid receptacle. The dental capsule mixes various components of the dental materials and forms a dental paste for dispensing. The container is especially envisaged for use in mixing of components to provide a paste for dental use.
