Proposed is a blender, in which a main body operates when a closure of a container lid on a container body is detected. In the blender according to the present disclosure, when the closure of the container lid is detected, a voltage is transferred from a first inductive coil of the main body to a second inductive coil of the container body. By using the voltage transferred to the second inductive coil, a light emitting unit of the container body transmits a light signal to a light receiving unit of the main body, and the light signal has a predetermined signal pattern. When the light receiving unit receives the light signal of the signal pattern, the main body recognizes the closure of the container lid on the container body such that the main body operates.

A blender including a container for processing food, a tool disposed inside the container, and rotatably driven by a shaft, and a mass balance element located outside the container for counterbalancing the tool.

A mixing apparatus includes a housing that includes a first end wall, a second end wall, and a top wall that at least partially define a cavity of the housing. The apparatus also includes a pair of rollers extending from the first end wall to the second end wall and coupled to the housing such that each roller is rotatable relative to the housing. The apparatus also includes a motor positioned in the cavity and enclosed within the housing, the motor operatively coupled to a first roller of the pair of rollers and configured to drive the first roller to rotate for rotating the container. The motor is operatively coupleable to a power source to drive the first roller of the pair of rollers.

Proposed is a vertically movable mixer including a container comprising a bottom portion in which a central through-hole is formed, a motor housing coupled to the container under the container, a motor built in the motor housing, a sliding member configured to reciprocally slidably move in a vertical direction through the central through-hole of the container, a rotatable shaft rotatably installed in the sliding member so as to be configured to reciprocally slidably move in the vertical direction in conjunction with the sliding member and axially mounted on a motor shaft of the motor so as to be configured to rotate by rotation of the motor, and a rotatable blade mounted on the rotatable shaft and configured to cut, grind, and mill food contained in the container while rotating and while reciprocally slidably moving in the vertical direction.

A gear reducer and a juicer including the gear reducer are disclosed. The gear reducer transfers rotational force, provided by a drive unit, to a juice extraction screw assembly after gear reduction. The gear reducer includes one or more gear reduction units. At least one of the one or more gear reduction units includes a sun gear coaxially connected to a rotating shaft of the drive unit; a ring gear configured such that a plurality of gear teeth are formed on the inner circumferential surface thereof around the sun gear, and configured to output a rotation speed slower than the rotation speed of the sun gear; and a plurality of planetary gears disposed between the sun gear and the ring gear, and configured to transfer the rotational force of the sun gear to the ring gear.

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.

A machine (1) for processing a liquid food substance incorporates: a container (10) delimiting a cavity (10′) for containing said liquid food substance; an impeller (20) for driving the liquid food substance in the container (10); a motor (30) for driving the impeller (20); a motor chamber (40) for containing the motor (30); and a means for evacuating heat from the motor chamber (40). Such means comprises one or more movable members (50) that are driven by the motor (30) and that are configured to circulate air (2a,2b) in the motor chamber (40) to evacuate heat therefrom.

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.
