Title: A nail polish conditioning system
Inventor: DAVID SIMMONS
IPC: B01F33/453
Filed: 2020-11-09
Abstract: Stirring nail polish may utilise a magnetic stirrer 2 and magnetic stir bar 4. A motor in the stirrer 2 can rotate magnets (17, fig 2); rotating stir bar 4 in a bottle. The stirrer 2 can sense magnetic decoupling of the stir bar 4 and rotatable magnetic device (17, fig 2), and decelerate the rotation speed to help re-engage magnetic coupling again. The stirrer 2 can monitor changes in viscous resistance of the liquid nail polish. A controller may slow down the motor, to re-establish magnetic coupling, e.g., upon sensing exceeding a torque threshold; sensed rotational speed change; or current change. Motor speed may increase if decoupling is not sensed. Upon re-establishing magnetic coupling, rotational speed may increase to a value lower than when decoupling occurred. Counterfeit detection may include RFID tags and barcodes. Data may be shared wirelessly. Magnetic retriever 6 can remove stir bars 4 from bottles.
