Publication number: 20240416295Abstract: A mixing chamber for use in a beverage carbonation system is provided. In one embodiment, the mixing chamber includes a housing, an agitator, a motor assembly and a rigid plate. A housing of the agitator and a housing of the motor assembly can each include a set of magnetics disposed therein and magnetically coupled so as to provide magnetic coupling between the motor assembly and the agitator. The mixing chamber is configured to receive a gas, such as carbon dioxide, and a liquid, such as water, to form a carbonated fluid. The carbonated fluid can be dispensed from the beverage carbonation system as a beverage.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 6, 2024Publication date: December 19, 2024Inventors: Tie He Yang, Jack Richardson, Christopher Meyer-Rassow

Patent number: 11191403Abstract: A docking station for a robotic cleaner may include a base, a docking station dust cup removably coupled to the base, a latch actuatable between a retaining position and a release position, and a release system configured to actuate the latch between the retaining and release positions. The docking station dust cup may be removable from the base in response to a pivotal movement of the docking station dust cup relative to the base about a pivot point. The latch may be horizontally spaced apart from the pivot point, wherein, when the latch is in the retaining position, pivotal movement of the docking station dust cup is substantially prevented.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2019Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: SharkNinja Operating LLCInventors: Aaron Gill, David Harting, Hamish Thompson, Christopher Meyer-Rassow, Catriona C.
