Abstract: The disclosure relates to a kitchen appliance for placement on vessels having a substantially circular opening edge, having a plate-shaped base body made of a first material having a recess into which at least one type of functional unit can be temporarily introduced. The base body is formed to have a shell-like shape as well as a concave and a convex side. At least on the convex side of the shell-shaped base body, a contact surface made of a second material is attached in sections, wherein the second material effects a greater frictional force in contact with the material of the vessel than the first material.

Abstract: An electronic module for temperature-monitored preparation of food in a cooking vessel, having a base sensor for sensing the temperature of the base of a cooking vessel, and having a communications device for signal transmission of the sensed temperature to a means for controlling or regulating the heating capacity of the cooking point for heating the cooking vessel, where the base sensor has a sensor element, which can be guided into, and out of, a mount in the base of the cooking vessel and is secured in an articulated manner on a housing of the electronic module and is connected to the communications device.

Abstract: An electric shaver includes a housing in which an electric drive for cutting knives of a shearing head is arranged. A shearing head frame is held by a first latching device in a position abutting on the housing and, upon release by the first latching device, is movable relative to the cutting knives into a position spaced apart from the housing against a stop. A second latching device is provided, by the release of which the shearing head frame is separately removable irrespective of the shearing head frame position released by the first latching device.

Abstract: In an epilating device including a rotary cylinder (1) capable of being set in rotation about its axis (2), clamping means (7) for gripping and removing hairs are arranged about the circumference of the same in a manner offset in the circumferential direction, and the actuating means for the clamping means (7) are designed arranged in a manner that at least two clamping means (7) offset in the circumferential direction are each actuated at the same time.
