Provided are a method for supplying water of specified concentration, including: a step of adding at least two liquids, a conductive first liquid and a non-conductive second liquid, to ultrapure water to produce water of specified concentration containing a first liquid-component and a second liquid-component at specified concentrations, in which a mixed solution in which the first liquid and the second liquid are mixed at a specified mixing ratio in advance is prepared; and the mixed solution is added to the ultrapure water so that a conductivity or specific resistance of the ultrapure water after the addition satisfies a specified value, and an apparatus therefor.
Device and Method for Generating Droplets
Disclosed herein is a device (1) for generating a dispersion of a first phase in a second phase, the device comprising a first inlet (2) for supplying a first phase, which opens into a first chamber (4), a second inlet for supplying a second phase, opening into a second chamber and a dispersion outlet (6) for collecting the dispersion. Furthermore, the device comprises a membrane (7), which separates the first chamber (4) and the second chamber (5) and which comprises a first side (8) facing the first chamber (4) and a second side (9) facing the second chamber (5). The membrane (7) comprises multiple channels (10) extending from the first side (8) to the second side (9), providing a fluidic connection between the first chamber (4) and the second chamber (5). Each channel (10) comprises a channel inlet (11) arranged on the first side (8) mid a channel outlet 812) arranged on the second side (9). The first chamber (4) is typically configured such that a flow rate of the first phase through all of the individual channels (10) is essentially equal.
Powder-liquid bone cement mixer with compressed gas connection
A device and method for producing a bone cement paste from a monomer liquid and a cement powder, wherein the device comprises a cartridge with a cylindrical interior chamber for mixing the parent components, whereby the interior chamber of the cartridge is closed on the front side up to a delivery opening for expelling the bone cement paste from the interior chamber, a delivery plunger which is arranged in the interior chamber of the cartridge and which is supported in a linearly movable manner in the direction of the delivery opening, the cement powder, which is arranged in the interior chamber of the cartridge between the delivery opening and the delivery plunger, a monomer receptacle with an interior chamber in which a monomer liquid container containing the monomer liquid is contained, whereby in the monomer receptacle, a conveying plunger is arranged movable in the longitudinal direction of the monomer receptacle, a compressed gas connection, whereby the conveying plunger is arranged between the monomer liquid container and the compressed gas connection or the compressed gas line in the monomer receptacle.
A dosing device to dispense two or more different scented fragrances mixed together
A fragrance dispensing system includes a first and a second container each having a main tube for the expulsion of a fragrance contained therein, and a dispensing device that provides a dispensing path towards an outlet section and that includes a mixing chamber and a first and second auxiliary tubes connected at one end to the mixing chamber. A containing case forms a seat containing the first and second containers, and a cap is configured to be applied on the containing case and houses the mixing chamber, an outlet section for the mixed fragrances and, at least partly, and the first and second auxiliary tubes, each of which has a free end separably connected to one of the main tubes when the cap is engaged to the case.
Carbonated beverage makers, methods, and systems
A carbonated beverage maker includes a water reservoir, a carbon dioxide creation chamber, and a carbonation chamber. The water reservoir holds ice water and has a first impeller and a shroud surrounding the first impeller. The carbon dioxide creation chamber contains chemical elements and receives warm water. The chemical elements react with each other to create carbon dioxide when the warm water is introduced to the carbon dioxide creation chamber. The carbonation chamber is connected to the water reservoir and the carbon dioxide creation chamber. The carbonation chamber has a second impeller that includes a stem portion and blades. The stem portion and the blades define conduits therein. The blades create a low pressure region in a lower portion of the carbonation chamber such that carbon dioxide from the carbon dioxide creation chamber flows through the conduits to the low pressure region.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DISPENSING DROPS OF LIQUID
Device (145) for dispensing drops of liquid, characterised in that it comprises: —at least one container (100) for a liquid, comprising at least one internal chamber and an upper opening, each chamber having a lower aperture and a seal sealing the upper opening, the seal having a substantially planar resiliently deformabie flexible portion, —at least one mechanical actuation means (146) configured to deform a flexible portion of a seal of at least one container, —a means (147) for selecting the volume of a drop to be dispensed from a plurality of drop volumes, a means (148) for determining the volume of liquid present in at least one container, and—a means (149) for controlling the actuation means, which means controls the movement from at least one point of the flexible portion of a container seal, as a non-constant function of the drop volume to be dispensed and the volume of liquid present in the container.
EMULSIFICATION DEVICE AND EMULSIFICATION METHOD
An emulsification device disclosed herein comprises: an outer tank having a first pressing end and a first exit end; and an inner tank having a second pressing end and a second exit end, wherein the inner tank is disposed inside the outer tank and the second exit end is located closer than the second pressing end to the first exit end, the outer tank is configured to house a first liquid and the inner tank is configured to house a second liquid, the first and second pressing ends are arranged so that one pressure can be applied onto both the first and second liquids, and under the pressure, the second liquid flows out of the inner tank through the second exit end and contacts with the first liquid in the outer tank so that an emulsion droplet comprising the second liquid within the first liquid is formed.
