Abstract: An accumulator-operated household appliance and a method for the operation thereof, in which the household appliance has at least two electrical systems, wherein a first electrical system is a first coil of an electrical drive motor. Switches of a switching unit can be switched in such a way by means of a controller that every electrical system is either operated by means of an accumulator assigned thereto or that a plurality of electrical systems are operated by a joint accumulator.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a food thermometer with a housing comprising a pointed end for a measurement of a temperature inside a product to be cooked. Inside the housing there is a battery arranged at the pointed end of the food thermometer. The battery is encased by a thermal insulation located between the housing and the battery. The disclosure further relates to a method of manufacturing a food thermometer. Thermally insulating material is brought into a housing part of the housing of the food thermometer and heated. The battery is pushed into the heated thermally insulating material. The thermally insulating material is then cooled.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrical kitchen appliance for preparing meals, preferably according to predetermined recipes, with an output interface (2) for outputting information data (4) to a user and an input interface (3) for inputting control commands for control of the electrical kitchen appliance (1) by the user, wherein the information data (4) are stored in a memory (5) connected with the electrical kitchen appliance (1).

Abstract: A self-propelled surface treatment unit has a drive device for the autonomous travel of the surface treatment unit within an environment, an energy storage device, a data storage device having an environmental map of the environment, and a navigation device for the navigation and self-location of the surface treatment unit within the environment on the basis of the environmental map having environmental zones. In order to improve the efficiency and service life of the energy storage device, the environmental map has energy data for at least two environmental zones, which indicates the amount of energy that the surface treatment unit will require to treat the surface in each one of the environmental zones.

Abstract: A method for operating a food processor driven by an electric motor for preparing a preparation item based on a recipe prepares the preparation item in a vessel of the food processor in one or more sequential preparation steps, in particular via mixing and/or heating and/or comminuting. In order to further support the user of the food processor during the preparation process, an operating parameter of the food processor is automatically controlled as a function of a repeated, similar behavior of the user while selecting or executing a recipe and/or of a presence of a user in the area of the food processor.

Abstract: An electrical kitchen appliance for preparing food has an operator control unit for entering control instructions for control of the electrical kitchen appliance by a user. The operator control unit can be removably attached to the electrical kitchen appliance and, in the process, can be operated in a first operating mode and in a second operating mode, wherein the operator control unit for entering control instructions for control of the electrical kitchen appliance by the user is attached to the electrical kitchen appliance in the first operating mode and is removed from the electrical kitchen appliance in the second operating mode. An electrical kitchen appliance of this kind which has an operator control unit which can be individually operated is provided in this way.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrical kitchen appliance for processing food by means of at least one processing function, which can be set by a user, as well as to a corresponding method. The electrical kitchen appliance (1) is provided with a setting device (6) for the user-side setting of at least one parameter of the processing function, wherein the setting device (6) is embodied as rotary knob. According to the invention, provision is made for an operating mode, in which the parameter is changed by a first amount for each angle of rotation by rotating the rotary knob in one direction and in which the parameter is changed by a second amount for each angle of rotation by rotating the rotary knob in the opposite direction, wherein the first amount differs from the second amount. This solves the object of specifying an electrical kitchen appliance, by means of which a parameter of a processing function can be input on the user-side in a simple, quick and reliable manner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating an electric motor-driven kitchen appliance for preparing a material to be prepared based on a recipe, wherein the material to be prepared is prepared in a vessel of the kitchen appliance via one or more consecutive preparation steps, in particular stirring and/or heating and/or chopping, wherein a current status parameter of the material to be prepared and/or a current operating parameter of the kitchen appliance is determined.

Abstract: A food processor, in particular a mixing device, comprising a housing for accommodating a receptacle and a cover that closes the receptacle, and a locking mechanism for interlocking the receptacle with the cover; the locking mechanism includes a locking element, especially a locking roller, which can be moved relative to the receptacle and/or the cover from an unlocking position into a locking position and vice versa. In order to further develop food processors of the type, the locking element, apart from or in addition to interlocking the receptacle with the cover, is designed to have a subsidiary effect on the receptacle and/or the cover or to subsidiarily interact with the receptacle and/or the cover.
