    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a system comprising a food processor and a mixing device having at least one vessel with a mixing tool. The vessel can be both part of the food processor and part of the mixing device. The maximum possible rotational speed at which the food processor can rotate the mixing tool may be at least five times greater than the maximum possible rotational speed at which the food processor can rotate the mixing tool. The present disclosure also relates to a stand part for the mixing device of the system. The stand part may be configured to rotate the mixing tool at or below a predetermined rotational speed as well as at or below a predetermined torque level.

    摘要: A self-propelled floor processing device with an optical distance measuring device for detecting a distance between the floor processing device and an obstacle in the environment. The distance measuring device has a first triangulation device with a first light source, a first light receiver and a first lens, a second triangulation device with a second light source, a second light receiver and a second lens, and an evaluation device. Each lens bundles light of the light source reflected by an obstacle in the direction of the allocated light receiver, and images it on an imaging location on the light receiver. The evaluation device determines a distance to the obstacle based on the imaging location. The first triangulation device detects an obstacle in a close distance range to the floor processing device, and the second triangulation device detects an obstacle in a long distance range to the floor processing device.

    摘要: A multi-function cooking apparatus control system and control method for improving the reproducibility of cooking results of a multi-function cooking apparatus includes a recipe program interface component to access a plurality of recipe programs. Predefined operating conditions include an operating parameter setting for a technical capability parameter of the cooking apparatus. An operating parameter interface component receives actual operating parameter values reflecting actual operating conditions of the cooking apparatus. If an actual technical capability parameter deviates from the predefined operating conditions and indicates a non-compensable deficiency of a technical capability of the cooking apparatus, instructions are sent to the cooking apparatus to prevent or stop automatic execution of the particular recipe program. If the actual technical capability parameter deviates from the predefined operating conditions and indicates a compensable deficiency of the technical capability of the cooking apparatus, compensation instructions are determined for the cooking apparatus according to predefined compensation rules.

    摘要: A recipe program with a plurality of recipe instructions for the preparation of a food product includes recipe instructions to be executed by a multifunction cooking apparatus as controlled by a recipe execution engine. A recipe instruction analyzer module analyzes a recipe instruction with regard to parameters (cooking mode, temperature, ingredients) of the recipe instruction. A cleaning mode determination module determines suitable cleaning mode(s) dependent on the results of the analysis by using a decision module which associates one or more cleaning modes with the parameters. A cleaning mode selector module selects, in accordance with predefined selection rules, a particular cleaning mode from the suitable cleaning mode(s). A cleaning execution module executes the selected cleaning mode after completed execution of the respective recipe instruction if the respective recipe instruction is not associated with a non-cleaning indicator in the recipe program.

    摘要: An electric motor, in particular for a kitchen machine, is proposed, wherein the rotor of the electric motor comprises a mounting device for mounting permanent magnets inserted in the rotor. The mounting device has a base body and flexible fixing elements projecting from the base body for fixing the permanent magnets, which press the permanent magnets in the radial direction against corresponding stops. Alternatively or additionally, the mounting device can form receiving chambers for receiving overdosed adhesive when bonding the permanent magnets. Further, a kitchen machine having a corresponding electric motor is proposed. Furthermore, a method for assembling an electric motor is proposed in which a permanent magnet is adhesively bonded. For this purpose, a mounting device is used which presses the permanent magnet in the radial direction against a corresponding stop by means of a fixing element in order to fix the permanent magnet during the curing of adhesive, and/or which receives overdosed adhesive in a receiving chamber.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a food preparation apparatus with a thermistor as a heating device for heating a food by the food preparation apparatus, with a temperature sensor for measuring a real temperature generated by the heating and a protection device which is configured such that it switches off the heating device or at least reduces the heating power of the heating device when a temperature is determined by the temperature sensor, which is above a first predetermined temperature, characterized in that the food preparation apparatus is configured such that a temperature is also determined by means of the thermistor and the protection device is configured such that it also switches off the heating device depending on the determined temperature or at least reduces the heating power of the heating device depending on the determined temperature, which is determined by means of the thermistor.
    With little technical effort, it can thus be reliably avoided that the food preparation apparatus can become excessively hot.

    摘要: The invention relates to a kitchen appliance system with a base unit having a housing, a controller and a communication interface, and with at least one accessory having an identifier. In order to increase user-friendliness, it is proposed that a detector is provided and configured to detect an identifier of at least one accessory and to forward corresponding information to the controller, that a position detector is provided and configured to detect the position of the at least one accessory in relation to the base unit and/or in relation to a further accessory and to forward corresponding information to the controller, in that the controller is configured to recognise an accessory and its position on the basis of the forwarded information, and in that the controller is configured to automatically confirm a proper position or change in position of a recognised accessory and, in the event of an undetermined position or change in position or in the event of an undetected position or change in position, to automatically confirm the position of the accessory, position change or in the case of an unrecognised accessory, to output a corresponding user message. Also described are a corresponding method, a control system for controlling a kitchen appliance system and a corresponding computer program.
