Abstract: A kneading or mixing machine including a housing with opposite side walls, a motor in the housing for driving a kneading or mixing tool. A safety shield mounted to bearings for turning about an axis (A), the safety shield adapted to at least partly shield the tool when the safety shield is turned to a shielding position, the safety shield including a pair of arms. Each arm having a head at a free end thereof, a central portion of each bearing receiving the head to allow for said turning, and the central portion of each bearing communicating with an entry slit configured for insertion of the head into the central portion in a direction transverse to the axis (A).

Abstract: The processing machine (1) is adapted to carry a processing tool driven by a motor and includes a safety shield (4) adapted to at least partly shield the processing tool in relation to a user. The safety shield (4) is arranged displaceably away from its shielding position and a magnetically activatable safety arrangement (14) includes a safety switch (15) being operable between a passive state in which the motor (2) is allowed to operate and an activated state in which the motor is prevented from operation. The safety switch (15) is arranged to switch from its passive state to its activated state when the safety shield (4) is displaced away from its shielding position. At least one magnet (16) is arranged to hold said displaceable safety shield (4) in its shielding position and at the same time hold the safety switch (15) in its passive state.
