  • Patent number: 10506897
    Abstract: A mixing assembly includes a container having a wall that defines an interior chamber within which a product is received. A mixing structure is received within the interior chamber and mixes the product. The mixing structure has a body portion that extends along a body axis between a first end and a second end. The first end of the body portion has a first cross-sectional size. The second end of the body has a second cross-sectional size that is larger than the first cross-sectional size. The body portion has a wall that extends helically about the body axis between the first end and the second end. The wall defines a channel that extends helically about the body axis. An end axis extends perpendicular to the body axis radially outwardly to an exterior of the body portion through an opening defined by the wall.

  • Patent number: 10238983
    Abstract: A wobbling toy is configured to spontaneously re-orient itself in an upright position solely under the force of gravity. The self-righting toy includes a weight that is confined to and movable along a pathway such that the weight defines a dynamic mass that is sufficient to cause the housing to spontaneously pivot along a convex outer surface profile in coordination with a position of the weight in the pathway. The self-righting toy is configured to maintain a positional relationship of the weight so that the housing is spontaneously pivotable along the convex surface without external force supplied by a user.

  • Publication number: 20140149242
    Abstract: A modular merchandiser and system with a frame of vertical posts and horizontal bars is carried on legs and carries grid elements sandwiching an indicia panel. Adjacent merchandiser panels can be linearly, perpendicularly or angularly (from about 10° to 350°) joined, and placed on the front end or other positions in various locations to carry various product on novel, height adjustable accessories and merchandising effects. Various parts of the merchandiser and the accessories therefor may be obtained in a first financial transaction (lease or sale) and others in subsequent financial transactions to update the same. Supporting special software can be similarly obtained and used to achieve uniform displays by using the included indicia panel. The system permits easier, less expensive, less wasteful, faster, and more environmentally friendly updating of the merchandiser, accessories, frame and grid portions separately.
