Abstract: A dry salt therapy device includes a blower, an exhaust passage fluidly coupled to the blower, a grinding chamber configured to aerosolize salt, and a salt vent fluidly coupling the exhaust passage and the grinding chamber. A flow structure may be provided. The grinding chamber may have a particular aspect ratio, tip clearance, or floor clearance. Salt may be delivered to a user without contacting the user, the salt being delivered in a jet having a particular diameter at a particular distance. The device can include a converging-diverging nozzle in the exhaust passage. The salt vent may protrude into a center of a flow of air through the exhaust passage.

Abstract: A mixing assembly, device, system and method for operating are provided which includes a powder assembly holding a first container containing a powder, the powder assembly having a powder dispensing means for dispensing a predetermined quantity of the powder, a liquid assembly holding a second container containing a liquid, the liquid assembly having a liquid dispensing means for dispensing a predetermined amount of the liquid, and a mixing bowl for receiving the predetermined quantity of the powder and the predetermined amount of the liquid.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining a use condition of an appliance, such as a sump pump, and outputting an indication of the current use condition of the appliance. A system implementing the method will first generate an actual first signature of a first characteristic associated with the appliance. The system will then generate an actual second signature of a second characteristic associated with the appliance. Each of the actual first and second signatures are then compared to corresponding expected signatures. The system then selects a current use condition from a plurality of use conditions based on the relationship between the actual signatures and the expected signatures.
