The invention is directed to a drive mechanism for a kitchen appliance with a drive motor (4), in which a variable-speed transmission (5) provides with an output shaft (14) a tool output for the coupling of tools adapted to be driven by the tool output at two different speeds of rotation at a given motor speed. The output shaft (14) of the variable-speed transmission (5) is axially displaceable and is movable by axial displacement from a first position in which it is coupled to a first gear wheel (18), into a second position in which it is disengaged from the first gear wheel (18), being instead coupled to a second gear wheel (17) or to the motor shaft (25).

Drive mechanism for a kitchen appliance

The invention is directed to a chopping and mixing device comprising a gear arrangement (4) including a gear arm (12) and adapted to be mounted in a bowl (19), the gear arrangement further including an input shaft (32) driven by a motor-powered main shaft (6), and an output shaft (24) mounted on the gear arm (12) outside the input shaft (32) and engageable with at least one processing tool (5) rotary about its axis (47) for performing food processing operations. According to the invention, the processing tool (5) is formed by at least one rotary cutter (50) for pureeing, blending and/or chopping food materials.
