ABSTRACT:
A rack for storing food mixer attachments comprising a housing adapted to be connected to the underside of a kitchen cabinet and having a plurality of cylindrical posts extending downwardly therefrom. A cylindrical pin is attached to the post intermediate the ends thereof. An annular washer is disposed around the post and is located between the pin and the housing. A helical compression spring is disposed around the post and has one end thereof in abutment with the housing and the other end thereof in abutment with the annular washer for biasing the annular washer toward the pin. Attachements to food mixers of a certain type can then be placed on the posts and locked on by the pin, such attachments being of a type having a circular opening in one end thereof with a slot going down one side of the circular opening and leading to one side of a second slot which is formed in an arc around the axis of the circular opening. The other end of the second slot has a notch therein. Consequently, the attachment can be placed onto the post with one end of the attachment being used to push the washer towards the housing and away from the pin and allowing the pin to slide down into the first slot until it comes to the second slot, whereupon the attachment can be manually rotated so that the second slot is moved with respect to the pin until the pin is into the notch formed on the other end of the second slot. At such time the attachment is stored until a reverse procedure is used to disengage it from such attachment to use it on a food mixer.
