Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention is a blood sample analyzer, including a sample conveying device, a first agitating device, a second agitating device and a controller, etc. When the first agitating device drives a sample container placed in a sample container accommodating hole to agitate a blood sample, a bottom of the sample container is kept lower than an opening of the sample container. In addition, the present invention further discloses a blood sample agitating device, a blood sample analysis method, a blood sample agitating method, and a computer storage medium.

Abstract: A kitchen appliance (10) for processing food, and in particular for producing blended beverages is provided. The kitchen appliance (10) includes a drive unit (12), and is swivel-mounted in a support unit (14). In addition the kitchen appliance (10) includes an attachment section (18) that is designed to accommodate a mixing container (30) in such a way that the attachment section (18) and the mixing container (30) define a hermetically sealed mixing space in which the cutting and/or stirring unit (20) is located. Food located in the mixing container (30) is fed to the cutting and/or stirring unit (20) on account of gravity. Preferably the attachment section (18) is composed of a cylindrical recess in the drive unit (12). Alternatively, the attachment section (18), preferably in the form of a cylindrical dish, and the cutting and/or stirring unit (20) can be designed as an insert that can be removed from and replaced back in the drive unit.

Abstract: A blender base that may be used with a food processor container, a blender container, and a single use beverage container. The blender container includes a novel blade unit having a food processor-style blade and blender type blades. Programs with preprogrammed motor commands for desired operations are stored in memory and may be selected by a user on a user interface. The user interface may include a liquid crystal display, or function switches and light emitting diodes. Upon selection of a particular pre-defined function, the microcontroller retrieves the appropriate program from the read only memory and specifies the preprogrammed motor commands to accomplish the selected function.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dental device, in particular a dental mixing device, with a housing, and with a frame that supports at least one motor and a mixing arm and is mounted on at least two bearings, preferably at least three bearings, in particular four bearings, inside a housing, each of these bearings being clamped between upper and lower elastic, pretensioned damping elements (32, 34). The damping elements are supported respectively on a first, upwardly directed abutment surface (58) and on a second, downwardly directed abutment surface (50) of the housing, in particular on a stand foot (52).

Abstract: A method of storing semen includes a series of carrying trays mounted on a rack mounted within a refrigerated container. Each tray supports a plurality of tubes containing the semen with the tubes having a main body being cylindrical in shave. The rack is arranged to store the samples in a manner such that the samples are continuously mixed. The rack provides movement to the tubes for mixing. The housing may rotate about an axis such that the tubes are moved about the axis or the housing may tilt the tubes such that the sample mixes that samples end to end. The tubes can be removed from the rack on the trays for use.

Abstract: A mixing system employing a rotary blade mixing assembly designed to mix liquid-like, resinous powders with a particulate tinting agent or other additive to produce a uniform, homogeneous powder is disclosed. Use of the method of the invention is advantageous when uniform color of the final coating powder is desired.

Abstract: A reusable safety warning device. A plurality of reflective strips of flexible material are adapted to protrude outwardly from an end of an elongate cylindrical body member and droop down to form a pompon-like reflector. A battery-powered light source is disposed within the reflector to radiate light which is reflected off of the flexible strips so that the device resembles a burning incendiary flare. Means are provided for retracting the reflective strips and light source inside the elongate body for storage of the device, and the device is provided with a pair of retractable legs for supporting the reflector end of the body above a surface when in use.
