AbstractA food processor that is operable in a dough mixing mode and in at least one other mixing mode. When in the dough mixing mode, the mixing impeller is driven at a continuous speed in the range of about 1,400 to about 1,600 rpm and preferably form about 1,400 rpm to about 1,550 rpm. When in the other mixing mode, the impeller is driven at a speed in excess of 1,600 rpm. The impeller has a blade assembly with an upper blade and a lower blade that are offset vertically and sloped toward one another to thereby slice a relatively wide swath of the dough ball during mixing. | InventorsAssigneeApplicationNo. 474308 filed on 12/29/1999US Classes:99/467, SUBJECTING FOOD TO AN ENCLOSED MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE99/486, Automatic control or time means241/24.26, Of food241/191, Rotary striking member, rotor structure241/282.1, Elongated edged member241/292.1, Edged blades extending radially366/97, With rotating stirrer366/251, Electric motor366/293, Coaxial366/314, Mounted in mixing chamber bottom wall366/601, MOTOR CONTROL416/223R, SPECIFIC BLADE STRUCTURE (E.G., SHAPE, MATERIAL, ETC.)416/228, Tined or irregular periphery416/235Irregular, flanged or channel forming blade surfaceField of Search99/348, With stirring99/467, SUBJECTING FOOD TO AN ENCLOSED MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE99/486, Automatic control or time means366/251, Electric motor366/314, Mounted in mixing chamber bottom wall366/96, Stationary mixing chamber366/97, With rotating stirrer366/98, Single stirrer366/99, Horizontal366/206, With motor control366/279, Rotatable stirrer366/293, Coaxial366/601, MOTOR CONTROL416/223R, SPECIFIC BLADE STRUCTURE (E.G., SHAPE, MATERIAL, ETC.)416/228, Tined or irregular periphery416/235, Irregular, flanged or channel forming blade surface241/191, Rotary striking member, rotor structure241/282.1, Elongated edged member241/292.1, Edged blades extending radially241/24.26Of foodExaminersPrimary: Hendricks, KeithAssistant: Becker, Drew Attorney, Agent or FirmUS Patent ReferencesD195728, 3172441, 3695586, 3934860, Apparatus for the treatment of meat productsIssued on: 01/27/1976 Inventor: Michels , et al.4143824, Vessel and blades for food processor, or the like Issued on: 03/13/1979 Inventor: Shiotani4200244, Readily installed food processor cutter tool with negative blade lift Issued on: 04/29/1980 Inventor: Sontheimer4541573, Food processor Issued on: 09/17/1985 Inventor: Fujiwara , et al.4545216, Multi-purpose device incorporating a freezing cycle, more particularly for producing ice cream and similar frozen products Issued on: 10/08/1985 Inventor: Cavalli4700903, Food processor with adapters for transmission of torque to rotary tools Issued on: 10/20/1987 Inventor: Henn4723719, Invertible/reversible tool for use in a rotary food processing appliance Issued on: 02/09/1988 Inventor: Williams4752041, Electric food processing apparatus Issued on: 06/21/1988 Inventor: Franke , et al.4766766, Method and apparatus for preparing dough Issued on: 08/30/1988 Inventor: Ahlert , et al.4790665, Kneading apparatus for bread dough and the like and a method of controlling the quality thereof during kneading Issued on: 12/13/1988 Inventor: Hayashi4817878, Rotatable tool power lock retention apparatus for food processor Issued on: 04/04/1989 Inventor: Shibata5071077, Electric kitchen appliance with multiple functions for treating foodstuffs Issued on: 12/10/1991 Inventor: Arroubi, et al.5158434, Mixing impellers and impeller systems for mixing and blending liquids and liquid suspensions having a wide range of viscosities Issued on: 10/27/1992 Inventor: Weetman5347205, Speed and mode control for a blender Issued on: 09/13/1994 Inventor: Piland5380086, Multipurpose food mixing appliance specially adapted for kneading dough Issued on: 01/10/1995 Inventor: Dickson5397178, Screw container as dispenser for pharmaceutical and/or cosmetic ointments produced with a stirrer Issued on: 03/14/1995 Inventor: Konietzko5556198, Multipurpose food mixing appliance specially adapted for kneading dough Issued on: 09/17/1996 Inventor: Dickson, Jr., et al.5599103, Milkshake mixer blade Issued on: 02/04/1997 Inventor: Linscott5921485, Food processor Issued on: 07/13/1999 Inventor: Plavcan, et al.6082648Electric household appliance for processing food comprising a device for storing cooking equipment Issued on: 07/04/2000 Inventor: Marriere, et al.
