The present system provides an enclosure which engages a blender base via friction fit created by one or more engagement members, so that a rotation of the enclosure and blender base relative to one another secures the enclosure to the blender base with an audible or tactile confirmation. A centering pad is attached to the system. The centering pad prevents the enclosure from rotating and becoming unlocked from the blender base due to operation of a motor.

Embodiment provides a food processor with overflow detection ring. The overflow detection ring includes an annular body, a detecting portion connected to an inner edge of the annular body and extending along one side of the annular body, and a lead connecting structure connected to an outer edge of the annular body. The annular body, the detecting portion, and the lead connecting structure are in electrically conduction with one another.

A blender includes a container body in which food is accommodated, a main body to support the container body, and an air guide provided in the main body to guide discharging of air flowing through a motor assembly to below the main body.

The invention concerns a food preparation device 1 comprising a food preparation pot 2, a heating element 3 for heating food 4 in the food preparation pot 2, a tool 5 for blending and/or comminuting food 4 in the food preparation pot 2, a lid 6, 7 for the food preparation pot 2, and an electric motor 8 for rotating the tool 5. A monitoring unit monitors a power input of the electric motor 8 for detecting an overpressure in the food preparation pot 2. The invention also concerns a method and a computer program product. A very reliable detection of overpressure can thereby be enabled.

An appliance operable in a first configuration as a blender and in a second configuration as a food processor, with safety mechanisms that work for both configurations. In the blender configuration, the appliance has safety mechanisms in a blade attachment that function to prevent the motor from operating unless the blade attachment is properly secured to the motor base and a blender container is properly secured to the blade attachment. In the food processor configuration, the appliance has safety mechanisms that function to prevent the motor from operating unless a food processor container is properly secured to the motor base and a lid is properly secured to the food processor container.

The present invention relates to a blender comprising: a jar in which a blade module for grinding food is disposed; an outer case formed from a metal material and having an open bottom surface; an inner case formed from a plastic material, inserted through the open bottom surface of the outer case, and accommodated inside the outer case; a motor assembly mounted on the inner space of the inner case and for rotating the blade module; a mounting part protruding so as to pass through from the top surface of the inner case to the top surface of the outer case and having the jar mounted thereon; and a bottom cover covering the open bottom surface of the outer case.

A kitchen device (100) having: a base (110) with a coupling (120) for receiving an accessory (130), the accessory (130) comprising a magnet and being configured for performing an operation when operated by the kitchen device (100); a controller configured to operate the kitchen device (100), and thereby the accessory (130), to perform the operation; and a magnetometer located in the base (110) and configured to interact with the magnet when the accessory (130) is coupled to the base (110) to provide an accessory signal indicative of a presence of the accessory (130) to the controller, wherein the magnetometer comprises a magnetoresistor.

A stirring-type cooking appliance, comprising a main machine housing, a motor assembled in the main machine housing, and a container cup assembly detachably assembled on the main machine housing; the main machine housing comprises a main machine upper cover and a main machine base which are integrally mounted, mounting positions are provided at corner ends on the main machine base; the container cup assembly and the main machine housing are mutually locked/unlocked by means of container cup fixing structures, the container cup assembly and the motor are mutually linked by means of cover opening protection structures, a cutter assembly in the container cup assembly and the motor are mutually linked by means of cutter fixing structures, and weighing foot assemblies are mounted on the mounting positions in a suspended manner. By jointly applying the container cup fixing structures, the cover opening protection structures, the cutter assembly fixing structures and the weighing foot assemblies, the accuracy of weighing can be ensured, water overflow of the whole machine can be prevented, achieving high safety, stability and controllability.

A blending device (100) is provided including a blade assembly (106) having a blade coupling structure, the blade coupling structure comprising a set of blade electrical connectors (128). The blending device also includes a blender base assembly (104) having a base coupling structure, the base coupling structure comprising a plurality of base electrical connector coupler sets (130A-130C). Each base electrical connector coupler set corresponds with a coupling position of the blade coupling structure and the base coupling structure. The blade assembly and the blender base assembly are electrically coupled in a closed configuration in which the set of blade electrical connectors is in contact with one of the plurality of base electrical connector coupler sets. A method of manufacturing the blending device is also provided.
