  • Publication number: 20210338011
    Abstract: A module includes a housing, a sealing feature, a locking feature, and an agitator. The housing has an opening separating inner and outer surfaces and a boss that extends through the housing such that part of the outer surface forms an inner bore of the boss having a terminus pointing toward the opening. The agitator has a base, a shaft, and a mixing element coupled to the base such that the base, in cooperation with the sealing feature, circumferentially seals the opening of the housing to form a cavity defined by the inner surface. The shaft passes through the inner bore. The locking feature when engaged permits independent or simultaneous translational and rotational movement of the shaft while an area between the terminus of the boss and the shaft remains mechanically sealed during the movement against liquid or powder encroachment into a clean area of the inner bore.

  • Publication number: 20210102424
    Abstract: A connector is adapted for securing into a fixed position two frame members that are positioned to define a common miter joint and aligned slots to collectively define a single correspondingly-shaped connector opening. The connector includes a peripheral configuration corresponding to a peripheral configuration of the correspondingly-shaped opening. The connector may have a peripheral surface having on predetermined portions thereof a plurality of stepwise ridges adapted to contact with reduced friction only spaced-apart areas of sidewalls of the correspondingly-shaped opening. The connector may have at least one void in the connector to permit deformation sufficient to accommodate variations between the shape of the connector and the shape of the correspondingly-shaped opening. A method of using the connector is also disclosed.
