Abstract
The art knows of a processing tool for mixing or comminuting food materials, with a working shaft (4) which is carried in a shaft housing (2) in the area of its input end and is adapted to be coupled to a drive motor of a kitchen appliance. In the area of its output end, the shaft (4) is centrally carried in a bearing sleeve (7) and fixed in an axial direction and has fastened to its output end a work performing element (6), said shaft housing (2) merging in the area of the output end of the shaft (4) into a flared bell-shaped housing (3) whose inner space is separated from the inner space of the shaft housing (2) by a cover plate (18) through which the shaft output end extends outwardly by passing through a bore (24). The bearing sleeve (7) is inserted and held in an axial direction in a supporting member (8) which bears against the cover plate (18) on the side pointing towards the interior of the shaft housing (2) and overlaps axially with an extension (17) of the cover plate (18).
