Definitions
- the present invention relates to an appliance for the preparation of food, such as for example a chopper, comprising a housing enclosing an electric motor group whose output shaft projects from the housing and is intended to drive in rotation a work tool housed in a bowl on which is fixed a removable cover comprising a tongue fixed on the periphery of the cover; and a safety device comprising a switch arranged in the electrical supply circuit of the motor, a switch control button mounted vertically sliding inside and at the periphery of the housing, associated with a return spring, and actuated by a manual control member fixedly connected to the pusher and movably mounted on the housing between a stop position and an on position, means making it possible, on the one hand, to lock the manual control member in the stop position when the cover does not is not correctly fixed on the bowl so that the pusher remains in a high position in which it does not actuate the switch, and on the other hand, to unlock this manual control member in the stop position when the cover is correctly fixed on the bowl so that, by
- the safety device authorizes the switching on of the device by actuation of the manual control member towards its on position only when the cover is correctly fixed on the bowl, while preventing the opening of the cover during operation of the device by means retainer cooperating with the tongue of the cover, thus protecting the user from any risk of injury which would be due to the working tool in motion, generally consisting of a cutting tool considered to be dangerous, if the appliance were put in works when the lid is not correctly fixed on the bowl or if the lid was removed during the operation of the appliance.
- the pusher rises to the high position under the expansion of its return spring so that the switch goes into its open state to cut off the electrical supply to the motor, and the manual control member which is fixedly linked to the pusher is then brought back to the stop position in which the cover can therefore be opened and removed.
- the safety device further comprises means making it possible to maintain the pusher in the low position when the switch is blocked in its closed state.
- a switch of the type comprising a body in which is slidably mounted a vertical contact pusher which has two free ends, respectively upper and lower, projecting from the body, and which carries, near its lower end, a metal ring acting mobile contact intended to cooperate with two fixed contacts mounted on said body
- the pusher is in permanent support on the upper end of the contact pusher
- the means for holding the pusher in the low position are constituted by a first tab mounted fixed on the pusher and which is in permanent support on the lower end of the contact pusher.
- the pusher and the first tab are made in one piece of plastic.
- this permanent support leg forming an integral part of the pusher constitutes a simple, economical member, easy to produce, reliable, and perfectly suited to mass production.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view in vertical section of an apparatus household appliances according to the invention, showing the cover correctly fixed on the bowl and before switching on the appliance;
- FIG. 2 is a view similar to Figure 1, the apparatus being in operation and the switch being blocked in the closed state.
- the household appliance illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 is an electric chopper comprising a housing forming a base 1, enclosing an electric motor group 3 whose output shaft 4 projects vertically from the upper face 6 of the housing 1.
- This housing 1 is surmounted by a removable bowl 8 intended to contain the food to be chopped and has on its bottom wall 9 a vertical chimney 11 in which engages the output shaft 4 of the motor 3.
- the bowl 8 houses a tool of rotary work 13, such as a knife, which is threaded on the chimney 11 and which is coupled in rotation with the output shaft 4 of the motor 3.
- the bowl 8 is closed by a removable cover 15 by means of a bayonet type fixing system, one of the elements of which is designated at 16 in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the upper edge 18 of the cover 15 carries a wide tab 20 directed downwards and outwards relative to the bowl 8 and which itself carries, near its free lower end 21, a tongue 23 perpendicular to this tab and directed outwards.
- the tongue 23 is located at a certain height above the upper face 6 of the housing 1.
- the housing 1 also contains a safety device, designated by the general reference 25 in FIGS. 1 and 2, which comprises a switch 27, the detailed structure of which will be explained below, arranged in a manner known per se in the circuit d power supply to the motor 3, and a push-button 29 for controlling the switch which is slidably mounted vertically on the periphery of the housing 1, being associated with a return spring 31, and which is actuated by a manual control member 33 linked fixedly to the pusher 29 and movably mounted on the housing 1 between a stop position ( Figure 1) and an on position ( Figure 2).
- a safety device designated by the general reference 25 in FIGS. 1 and 2
- a switch 27 the detailed structure of which will be explained below
- the pusher 29 is spaced laterally from the switch 27 and is housed in a vertical bulge 35 integrated and projecting at the periphery of the housing 1, and whose upper part 36 s pupil at a certain height relative to the upper face 6 of the housing 1.
- the manual control member 33 is a push button mounted vertically on the upper part 36 of the bulge 35 of the housing 1, in the vertical extension of the pusher 29, and which internally carries a descending vertical tab. 38 fixedly mounted on the vertical upper part 40 of the pusher 29 by any suitable fixing means.
- the push-button 33 has, on its face directed towards the bowl 8, a slot 42 opening on one of the lateral sides of the push-button 33 and extending in the latter according to a direction parallel to the upper face 6 of the casing 1 being situated at the same height from the upper face 6 of the casing as the tongue 23 of the cover 15.
- the tongue 23 is engaged in the slot 42 of the push button 33, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the return spring 31 of the pusher 29 is interposed between a horizontal support surface 44 formed in the housing 1, near the bottom wall 45 of the latter, and a small horizontal wing 47 formed as a square on the vertical lower part 48 of the pusher 29.
- the safety device 25 further comprises means making it possible to lock the push button 33 in the off position when the cover 15 is not correctly fixed on the bowl 8, that is to say when the tongue 23 of the cover 15 is not engaged in the slot 42 of the push button 33.
- these locking means consist of a lock, shown diagrammatically at 50 in FIG. 1, mounted elastically on the upper part 40 of the push-button 29 and capable of blocking the push-button 33 by itself relative to the upper edge 52 of the bulge 35 of the housing 1.
- the push-button 33 in the off position is thus locked when the cover 15 is not correctly fixed on the bowl 8, any pressing of the push button by the user is impossible, so that the pusher 29 is not actuated and therefore remains in a high rest position in which it does not actuate the switch 27.
- These means for locking the push button 33 also constitute means making it possible to unlock this push button 33 in the stopped position when the cover 15 is correctly fixed to the bowl 8, that is to say when the tongue 23 of the cover 15 is engaged in the slot 42 of the push button 33, as illustrated in FIG. 1. Indeed, during this engagement of the tongue 23 of the cover 15 in the slot 42 of the push button, the tongue 23 acts on the latch 50 to release it sufficiently from the upper edge 52 of the bulge 35 of the housing 1, so that the push-button 33 is released.
- the push button 33 in the off position being thus unlocked, the user can push the push button, in the direction of the arrow F in FIG. 1, which then switches to the on position and which causes the push button 29 to slide towards a low working position in which he actuates the switch 27 to control the closing of the electrical supply circuit of the motor 3, as illustrated in FIG. 2.
- the safety device 25 also comprises retaining means cooperating with the tongue 23 of the cover 15 to prevent the opening of the latter when the pusher 29 is moved to its low position by operation of the push button 33, the cover 15 being cor - Correctly fixed on the bowl 8.
- these retaining means are constituted by an upper edge 54, in the form of a notch, of the slot 42 of the push button 33 which maintains in press the tab 23 of the cover 15 against the upper edge 52 of the bulge 35 of the housing when the user presses the push button 33, as illustrated in FIG. 2.
- the safety device further comprises means making it possible to keep the pusher 29 in the low position when the switch 27 (FIG. 2) is blocked in its closed state.
- the switch 27 comprises a body 55 in which is slidably mounted a vertical contact pusher 56 which has two free ends, respectively upper 56a and lower 56b, projecting from the body 55, and which carries, near its lower end 56b, a metal ring 58 fixed by crimping and acting as a movable contact intended to come to cooperate with two fixed contacts 60,61 slightly turned towards each other and mounted externally on a lower surface body 55.
- a vertical contact pusher 56 which has two free ends, respectively upper 56a and lower 56b, projecting from the body 55, and which carries, near its lower end 56b, a metal ring 58 fixed by crimping and acting as a movable contact intended to come to cooperate with two fixed contacts 60,61 slightly turned towards each other and mounted externally on a lower surface body 55.
- the means for holding the pusher 29 in the low position, when the switch 27 is blocked in the closed state are constituted by a first retaining tab 63 which is fixedly mounted on the pusher 29 and which is in permanent support on the lower end 56b of the contact pusher 56 of the switch 27.
- the pusher 29 is also in permanent support on the upper end 56a of the contact pusher 56 of the switch 27 by means of a second actuating tab 65 also mounted fixed on the pusher 29.
- the sliding contact pusher 56 of the switch 27 is permanently maintained by its two ends against the two tabs 63, 65 of the pusher 29, so that it always follows the sliding movement imparted to the pusher 29.
- the pusher 29 and the two tabs, respectively for holding 63 and for actuation 65 are molded in one piece from plastic.
- the two legs 63, 65 of the pusher 29 are straight, extend parallel to each other, and are each mounted square on this pusher 29, thus constituting a four- two-toothed chette between which the vertical contact pusher 56 of the switch 27 is supported.
- the pusher 29 remains held in the low position thanks to its retaining tab 63 cooperating with the lower end 56b of the contact pusher 56 thus blocked, so that the push-button 33 integral with the push-button 29 also remains pressed in the on position in which it prevents the opening of the cover 15. The user must then unplug the appliance to stop the motor 3.
- this safety device applies to any other household appliance for manual preparation of food preparation comprising a rotary working tool considered to be dangerous, such as for example a food processor using various sharp rotary tools.
