Abstract: The device (30) for braking an electric motor comprises a rotor (54) provided with two brushes (50, 51) and a stator comprising at least two half-coils (48, 49) connected in series to the brushes while the motor is nominally activated. Said device comprises a means (30) for underpowering, e.g. freewheeling, the motor, a means (41, 42, 46) for connecting in series a single half-coil (49) to the rotor brushes and a means for controlling the braking by underpowering the motor until at least one value of a physical quantity reaches a predetermined value and the single half-coil is connected in series to the rotor brushes when the value of a physical quantity reaches the predetermined value.

Abstract: A portable device has an electric motor connected to a housing with a female electrical socket, and electrical power cable with a male plug and an electrical safety device. The safety device has a first element borne by the male plug and a second element located within the housing. The second element has a locking element to lock an activation element for activating the motor in a deactivated position. The first element of the male plug is configured to engage with the locking element to free the activation element to activate the motor.

Abstract: The invention concerns an immersion mixer with an electric motor, a drive shaft, a tube, a bell-shaped housing and a rotary tool. To ease the assembly or disassembly of such a mixer, a cartridge is assembled in the bell-shaped housing so as to be removable. This cartridge includes a shaft guide body, an attaching mechanism, a sealed bearing assembly for receiving the shaft and a sleeve. The cartridge is made in such a way that it is simply necessary to insert or release it through the top of the bell-shaped housing without any action by a specialist in the field being needed.
