Abstract
The invention is directed to an electric powered hand mixer for processing food materials, which is provided with switching arrangements adjustably disposed on a housing (2) and featuring different settings for activation of a continuous-on mode and a pulse mode. Provision is made for tool mounts for holding various tools including, for example, a mixing or kneading tool (3) or a puréeing wand. A lock release element (14) is provided for ejecting a tool held in one of the tool mounts. Provision is made for two switching devices (10, 12) one of which is associated with the activation of the continuous-on mode and one with the activation of the pulse mode. The two switching devices (10, 12) and the lock release element (14) are mechanically coupled to each other so that only one of the two switching devices (10, 12) is actuatable at a time.
