Abstract

A kneading machine includes a kneading machine frame with a lower portion and a head movable relative to the lower portion between a lower operating position and an upper cleaning position. A kneading bowl is on the lower portion and a drivable kneading tool and a lid closing an opening of the kneading bowl in the operating position are the head. The lid is surrounded on a circumferential side by a first safety ring of a safety device which projects beyond the lid on an underside thereof, and which is movably fastened to the lid. The safety device includes a detector to detect a relative movement between the lid and the first safety ring. The kneading machine frame includes at least two trunnion bearings, each defined by a trunnion and a matching receptacle.
