Abstract: The present invention relates to paddle (2) and a scraper disc (1) that is placed in a container and cannot be removed when the paddle and scraper disc are rotating in the operational mode in the container.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a unique helical design for scraper blades (1) and a driver-disc (2) that allows for optimum performance when preparing single-serve portions (100-300 ml) of freshly-made frozen and/or chilled confections on demand directly in a packaging container. The present invention improves upon the prior art by not only shortening the time it takes (less than 180 seconds) to prepare portionable volumes of freshly made frozen/chilled confections with optimal microstructure inside a conically shaped container packaging, but also minimises cross-contamination and reduces the need for cleaning in-between portions/batches.

Abstract: The invention concerns a port system (1) for fastening a container (3) comprising a vessel (2) and an outlet (6) to a connection system (14) presenting an inlet, said port system comprising: —a main skirt (4) connectable to the outlet (6) of the container presenting a connecting end and a discharge end (7), —a hopper (8) attached to the internal wall of the skirt and tapering to a discharge outlet (9) in direction of the main skirt discharge end (7), —a tearable membrane (10) closing the skirt discharge end and the hopper.

Abstract: A device stores and meters a powder and mixes the powder with a diluent to prepare a food product. The device is able to be connected to a tank containing the diluent and to a source of air. The device includes a multidose container to form a reserve of powder, a powder dosing system, a powder duct integrated in an air chamber that can carry air around the powder duct outlet. The powder duct outlet emerges in a mixing chamber that includes a diluent inlet and a food product outlet, the whole forming a single piece disposable device.
