Abstract

A base power unit for a blender includes a housing supporting a motor coupled to a drive shaft, the drive shaft coupled to a drive element. The base power unit also includes a fan coupled to the drive shaft, where the fan is located between the motor and the drive element. The housing defines an air flow path passing the motor, where the fan receives air after the air enters the housing through an intake vent, and the fan causes the air to pass out of the housing through an exit vent.
