A counter-rotating dough making mechanism, including a drive shaft (9) that is provided with an upper dough hook assembly (1) and a lower dough hook assembly (2) is disclosed. The lower dough hook assembly (2) is preferably provided with a stir plate (3) which enhances the thorough mixing of flour during dough kneading. The upper dough hook assembly (1) and the lower dough hook assembly (2) are connected by gears (42a, 42b, 42c) so that they rotate synchronously but in the opposite direction. By the counter-rotating action of the upper dough hook assembly (1) and the lower dough hook assembly (2), the dough making process is more effective as compared to the usual single piece dough hook as used in many stand mixers. The design and construction of the disclosed counter-rotating dough making mechanism is simple, robust, and reliable, and can deliver superior performance in dough making.

A dough mixer with a weighing function includes a main machine and a dough mixing assembly mounted on the main machine, wherein the main machine comprises a motor therein and the dough mixing assembly comprises a dough mixing bowl, an upper cover, a transmission shaft connected to the motor and a dough mixing device connected to the transmission shaft. The dough mixer also includes two symmetrically arranged weighing sensors at left and right sides of the main machine respectively. With the dough mixer, ingredients can be directly placed into the dough mixing bowl and weighed, so that the operation of the dough mixer is simple and rapid.

A dough mixer includes a main unit with a motor arranged therein and a dough mixing assembly mounted thereon. The dough mixing assembly includes a dough mixing bowl, a top cover, a transmission shaft connected to the motor and is arranged in the dough mixing bowl, a dough mixing unit connected to the transmission shaft and including an upper end, and a scraper unit detachably connected to the upper end of the dough mixing unit. The scraper unit includes a first bowl wall scraper including a first blade fitted to an inner wall of the dough mixing bowl, a second bowl wall scraper including a second blade fitted to the inner wall of the dough mixing bowl, wherein the second bowl wall scraper is arranged opposite to the first bowl wall scraper, and a central scraper including a third blade matched with an outer wall of the transmission shaft.

The invention discloses a dough kneading machine, including a main body on which a dough kneading component is mounted; the dough kneading component comprises a dough kneading bowl with a cover, in which a dough kneading drive shaft is set passing through a mounting hole on the bottom of the bowl and connecting to the main body at the lower end; a bidirectional dough kneading hook with a center shaft is mounted on the upper end of the dough kneading drive shaft; a first dough kneading hook and a second dough kneading hook with asymmetric structure are oppositely set on the center shaft and a center scraper is connected to the bottom of the center shaft. The dough kneading machine effectively ensures the stationarity during rotation operation of food processing, and the efficiency is two times as fast as that of unidirectional dough kneading hook.

The present invention relates to a double-hook dough kneading structure, it includes an output shaft, a rotating rod with a center perpendicularly fixed to a bottom of the output shaft, a first rotating shaft rotationally connected to one end of the rotating rod, a second rotating shaft rotationally connected to the other end of the rotating rod, a first dough kneading hook detachably connected to a bottom of the first rotating shaft, a second dough kneading hook detachably connected to a bottom of the second rotating shaft, an internally-toothed ring fixed to an outer side of the output shaft, a first planetary gear fixed to a top of the first rotating shaft, and a second planetary gear fixed to a top of the second rotating shaft, where the first planetary gear and the second planetary gear are respectively engaged with an inner side of the internally-toothed ring.

A rotor for a kneading machine for alimentary doughs is provided. The rotor has a flat base formed of a plurality of arms and a plurality of mixing paddles restrained to the arms. The mixing paddles are pivotally mounted on the arms about respective axes (E, F) that are parallel to the flat base. The arms are movable between a first operating position, wherein they extend from the arms along a direction (V) that is generally perpendicular to the flat base, and a second operating position, wherein they extend from the arms in opposite directions substantially parallel to the flat base. When the rotor is mounted in a kneading machine, its paddles are proximate to a bottom of the container of the machine in the second operating position, thus acting to separate the dough.

A kneading machine for use in the processing of food dough, to be used in bakeries, breadstick factories, and the pastry and confectionery industry as well as for domestic use. The kneading machine is of the mechanical arm type wherein the kneading tool (10) completes a trajectory which extends more than half and up to the entire diameter of the tub (V) containing the dough. The working end or terminal part of the kneading tool includes a shaped kneading implement (9) immersed in the mass of dough (P) both in the outward travel and in the return travel and acts on the entire mass of dough.

A household mixer appliance having a mixing container with an inner surface and an open top, a drive arrangement and a hook. The hook has a sole attachment portion which, when attached to the drive arrangement, abuts a first inner surface portion of the mixing container inner surface. The sole attachment portion is attachable to the drive arrangement via a through hole in the first inner surface portion such that the hook is rotatable around a substantially horizontal axis of rotation within the mixing container when the hook is attached to the drive arrangement.

A household mixer appliance having an open top mixing container, a hook and a drive arrangement. The mixing container has a side wall portion with a through hole for the drive arrangement and the hook is arranged to be rotatable around an axis of rotation within the mixing container via the drive arrangement. A seal is arranged between the drive arrangement and the side wall portion of the mixing container, and the drive arrangement includes a quick-release mechanism to which the hook is attachable.

A household mixer appliance having a mixing container and a hook with a curved elongated portion. The hook is attachable to a drive arrangement via a through hole in a first inner surface portion of the mixing container such that the hook is rotatable around an axis of rotation within the mixing container. The curved elongated portion extends in a first direction, being downwards from the axis of rotation, substantially in parallel with the first inner surface portion of the mixing container, and at least a part of the curved elongated portion extends in a second direction, forming an angle with a first plane defined by the first direction and the axis of rotation.
