ABSTRACT:
A food processor is known which comprises a base unit (1, 6) having at least two separate mounts (2, 3) for one processing container (4, 5) each. A respective rotary drive shaft is disposed in the area of each mount (2, 3), which drive shaft is adapted to drive a processing tool (9) insertable into the processing container (4, 5) for the processing of food materials. The drive shafts are connected to an electric motor (29) by a transmission mechanism. A switch device (S1) is provided downstream from and in series with a manually actuatable main switch (8; S3) to enable electric current to be released to the motor (29), said switch device being adapted to be turned on or off by movement of a lid (10, 11) which closes or opens the respective processing container (2, 3), such that an actuating element (13, 14) formed on the lid (10, 11) displaces a lever arrangement (15) connected with the switch device (S1) in such fashion as to cause actuation of a switching contact (23). In order to achieve a simple design for such a switch device which serves as a safety device, a common motor switching contact (23) for releasing electric current to the motor (29) is assigned to the lids (10, 11). According to the present invention, this motor switching contact (23) is actuated by a lever arrangement (15) mounted in the housing (6) and comprising two sections (16, 17).
