A food processor (100) with a food preparation vessel (102), a base (104) housing a drive motor (111) and a spindle assembly (140) for detachable engagement with an accessory (109) for rotation in the preparation vessel (102). The spindle assembly (140) has a gear assembly such that the accessory (109) is driven at a speed that differs from that of the drive motor (111).

A juicer and blender-compatible power device, comprising: a driving part used for generating power; a first driving shaf and a second driving shaft, wherein the first driving shaft rotates by means of the driving part, the second driving shaft is a hollow shaft, the first driving shaft penetrates the inside of the second driving shaft, and the second driving shaft rotates at a speed different from that of the first driving shaft; a supporting part, wherein end parts of the the first driving shaft and the second driving shaft protrude from a hole of the supporting part, and the second driving shaft may be rotatably supported on the supporting part; a first bearing arranged between the first driving shaft and the second driving shaft; and a second bearing arranged between the second driving shaft and the supporting part. The first bearing and the second bearing are arranged to overlap in the horizontal direction. In the juicer and blender-compatible power device, the rotating shafts that rotate at high and low speeds may be formed into a dual-shaft form, so that same may be compatibly used for a juicer and a blender, and the power device may be made more compact.

A kitchen device base having at least one collection area for at least one preparation module, whereby the collection area has at least one locking means for mechanical locking of the preparation module. A kitchen device base, a preparation module, and a kitchen device, with which automatic locking of various preparation modules on a kitchen device base is made possible, are realized in that the locking means has at least one drive unit and at least one movably mounted locking element, that the locking element can be moved at least indirectly by means of the drive unit, at least between a release position and a locking position, that in the release position the preparation module can be arranged in at least two different orientations in the collection area, and that in the locking position the preparation module is locked to the kitchen device base.

A drive assembly for a blender appliance includes an output drive shaft and an inner one-way bearing member received in an interior cavity of the output drive shaft. An outer bearing member is oppositely configured relative to the inner one-way bearing member and includes a receiving bore. The receiving well of the output drive shaft is received in the receiving bore of the outer one-way bearing member. An input drive shaft includes a first end received in a receiving bore of the inner one-way bearing member. A planetary gear system includes a sun gear that is operably coupled to the input drive shaft and gearingly engaged with a ring gear through a plurality of planet gears. A carrier member is operably coupled to the plurality of planet gears and includes a receiving bore in which the outer one-way bearing member is received for rotation therewith.

The present disclosure relates to food preparation appliance with a rotatable tool for chopping and/or mixing a food in a food preparation container, the tool being detachably connected to a shaft, which extends from outside the food preparation container through a passage toward the tool inside the food preparation container in order to be able to drive the tool to rotate. A locking mechanism is provided for producing a locked connection of the tool to the shaft and is equipped so that a releasing and/or a locking of the connection of the tool from/to the shaft can be performed from outside the food preparation container. The present disclosure also relates to an anchoring assembly for the food preparation appliance. It is thus possible to ensure a simple and convenient removal of a prepared food from the food preparation container.

A machine (1) has: a tank (10) having a cavity (10′) for containing and processing a batch of liquid food substance; a stirring tool (15) in the cavity (10′) having a stirring surface (151) for imparting a mechanical effect on said food substance in the cavity (10′) to froth the food substance; an actuator configured to rotate the stirring tool (15) in the cavity (10); and a control unit configured to control the actuator so that the rotational speed of the stirring tool (15) is changeable. The control unit has a mode in which the actuator is controlled by the control unit so that: during a first phase (501) of processing the batch, the stirring tool (15) is rotated below a low frothing rotational speed (511); and thereafter during a second phase (502) of processing said batch, the rotational speed (512) of the stirring tool (15) is increased from the low frothing rotational speed (511) to above a high frothing rotational speed (513); and thereafter during a third phase (503) of processing said batch, the stirring tool (15) is rotated above the high frothing rotational speed (513).

The present disclosure provides a food processor, comprising: a cutter head, wherein a cutter is arranged on the cutter head, the intersecting line of the side wall of the cutter head and the cross section of the cutter head is a cutter head contour line, the maximum inscribed circle or the minimum circumscribed circle of the cutter head contour line is a cutter head base circle, and the central axis of the cutter head penetrates the center of the cutter head base circle; and a cup body arranged on the cutter head, wherein the intersecting line of the cup wall of the cup body and the cross section of the cup wall is a cup body contour line, the maximum inscribed circle or the minimum circumscribed circle of the cup body contour line is a cup body base circle.
