A blender for blending foodstuff includes a base enclosing a motor and a jar sensor secured to the base. The base has an upper mounting surface and the motor is mounted beneath the upper mounting surface. The jar sensor is secured to the base proximate the upper mounting surface. A jar is removably mountable to the base on the mounting surface. The jar includes a closed end and an actuator is mounted proximate the lower jar surface. The jar sensor detects the presence of the actuator when the jar is mounted to the base in an operating position. The motor is powered when the jar sensor detects the presence of the actuator in the operating position.

A blender base that may be used with a food processor container, a blender container, and a single use beverage container. The blender container includes a novel blade unit having a food processor-style blade and blender type blades. Programs with preprogrammed motor commands for desired operations are stored in memory and may be selected by a user on a user interface. The user interface may include a liquid crystal display, or function switches and light emitting diodes. Upon selection of a particular pre-defined function, the microcontroller retrieves the appropriate program from the read only memory and specifies the preprogrammed motor commands to accomplish the selected function.

Digital device to regulate the speed of an electric motor having a commutating element mounted in series with the motor at the terminals of an A.C. distribution network. A duration of an on-state of the commutating element defines values corresponding to desired reference speeds. The digital device includes a tachometer sensor connected with the motor which emits pulses indicative of the speed of the motor, a microcontroller having an oscillator, a first counter whose count is tied to at least one period of the pulses to calculate an actual speed of the motor, a memory containing desired reference speed values, a comparator to compare the desired reference speed with the actual speed of the motor, and an interface to control the on-state of the commutating element. The digital speed regulation is performed by calculating a range of correction defined as the difference between the reference speed chosen by the user and the first part of a value generated from the first counter, performing a test on the sign of the range of correction and, applying, using a second counter, a correction to the trigger of the commutating element as a function of the sign of the range of correction.

A food mixer having speed control means including a first switch having a series of speed positions and a switch lever movable in the mixer handle forwardly and rearwardly thereof and a second momentary switch adapted when actuated to provide an increase in speed and torque in any speed position of the first switch with the second switch lever being pivotally mounted on the mixer handle for convenient actuation independently of the first switch lever.

A speed control comprises a rotary surface having irregularlyshaped means and driven by the controlled motor. A brush assembly comprises at least part of a make-and-break circuit in series with the motor, the assembly including an engagement portion adapted to ride on the rotary surface. The brush assembly is adjustable so that the engagement portion may be placed at a setting anywhere in a path of traverse along the surface. The irregularly-shaped means causes interruptions of the make-andbreak circuit as the rotary surface rotates under the engagement portion. Because of the shape of the irregularly-shaped means, the interruptions are less in extent and/or frequency if the setting is closer to one end of the path of traverse than the other end. In other words, there is more ''''on'''' time at a setting toward said one end. Hence, the speed of the motor increases at settings toward said one end. Governor means are provided to reduce the extent and/or number of interruptions when the motor speed drops under load.

摘要:
A system of intelligent appliances coupled by common household power lines or wireless links. In particular, the system includes one of more of a kitchen console, a breadmaker, a slow cooker, and a rice cooker/steamer. One or more of the appliances serves as a system controller and may include a further communications interface for coupling to an external communications network, such as the telephone network. The system can thus be accessed and controlled remotely. The system can also communicate with and obtain information from remote sources such as Internet-based facilities.
