A blender system is shown and described herein. In one aspect, the blender system includes a base with an interior and an exterior formed by a housing. The housing may include an air inlet port and an exhaust port. The interior of the base includes a motor bore forming an air pathway connecting the air inlet port to the exhaust port. The motor bore also includes an entry aperture fluidly connecting the motor bore to the air inlet port. The entry aperture is indirectly in line with the air inlet port. The exit aperture fluidly connects the motor bore to the exhaust port, and the exit aperture is indirectly in line with the exhaust port.

The invention relates to a meal preparation assembly for preparing meals for infants, that includes a first culinary preparation module, such as a mixing module, and a connection base (8; 8′) for at least the first module (6; 4′, 6′), the base being adapted to be supplied with electrical energy and including an electrical connector (90; 90′, 92) in order to connect the first module in a removable manner and to transfer the electrical energy to the first module when it is connected, this electrical connector (90; 90′, 92) being retractable. The assembly includes a second steam cooking module (4, 4′) which is separate and distinct from the first module (6; 6′) and the base includes a user interface.

A food-processing device for blending and mixing food comprises a mixing vessel, a blade holder, and a motor base. The motor is a high power motor. The device has various safety features designed for the high power motor. The blade holder comprises a safety mechanism that prevents the motor base from operating without the mixing vessel covering the blade. The mixing vessel also contains emitters that interact with detectors on the motor base that can allow a user to select an alternate blend speed according to the mixing vessel that is attached.

A food processing appliance includes a bowl to contain the food, with a side wall, a rotary work accessory arranged in the bowl, a lid arranged on the bowl, the lid including a manually operated motor to cause a drive shaft to spin the work accessory around a rotation axis A by pulling on a cord transversely to the axis A. The lid includes: a first dynamic gasket arranged between the lid and the side wall to fill the space therebetween; a second dynamic gasket, arranged between the lid and the drive shaft to fill the space therebetween; each gasket having an inner wall, a connecting part arranged on the lid, an annular lip and a groove; the lip movable and deformable with a displacement angle α extending outwards relative to the axis A, so as to ensure a watertight seal when the lid is connected to the bowl.

An attachment (60) for a spout (140) of a food processing apparatus (10), including a housing (70) with a liquid inlet (80), a front face (160), and a liquid outlet (100). The housing defines a posterior cavity (110) that removably receives the spout and position the liquid inlet next to the spout. The attachment also includes a drip-stop flap (150) which is attached to and covers the front face of the housing. The drip-stop flap reversibly pivots about a horizontal pivot axis between a closed position where the liquid outlet is blocked by a sealing element on the flap, and an open position where the liquid outlet is exposed.

A food processor, in particular a mixing device, comprising a housing for accommodating a receptacle and a cover that closes the receptacle, and a locking mechanism for interlocking the receptacle with the cover; the locking mechanism includes a locking element, especially a locking roller, which can be moved relative to the receptacle and/or the cover from an unlocking position into a locking position and vice versa. In order to further develop food processors of the type, the locking element, apart from or in addition to interlocking the receptacle with the cover, is designed to have a subsidiary effect on the receptacle and/or the cover or to subsidiarily interact with the receptacle and/or the cover.

Proposed is a grain dispenser including: a storage unit including a plurality of storage hoppers in which different kinds of grain, respectively, are stored; a stirring and washing container accommodating the kinds of grain to be dispensed from the storage unit; a water supply unit supplying water to the stirring and washing container; a water draining unit draining the water from the stirring and washing container; a container actuator rotating the stirring and washing container in different directions in order to stir and wash the kinds of grain accommodated; and a controller controlling the storage unit, controlling the container actuator, determining an amount of water for meal cooking and a macerating time, controlling the water supply unit, counting an elapsed time in a state where as much water as the amount of water for meal cooking is supplied, and providing alerting information when the multigrain mixture is completely macerated.

A device for removing coconut water and meat from a coconut has a drill unit. A first attachment is removable coupled to the drill unit to drain the coconut water. A second attachment is removable coupled to the drill unit to open the coconut to remove the coconut meat.

A cap for closing a container including a cap body for contacting an open end of the container and at least one connector mounted to an exterior of said cap body for coupling said cap body to the container. The at least one connector includes an engaging piece and a lever. An initial movement of said at least one connector causes said engaging piece to contact the container and a further movement of said at least one connector causes said engaging piece to affix said cap body to the container.
