A kitchen appliance operable by electric motor includes a housing, which has an outer surface, and a data transmission interface designed to interact with a data memory element. The data transmission interface is formed in an outer surface of the housing by metal contact elements, which are arranged adjacent to each other and which each have a contact surface and form part of the outer surface. Further, a data memory element for transmitting data to a kitchen appliance operable by electric motor includes a plurality of contact elements that are separate from each other and optionally a contact surface. Further, a combination of a kitchen appliance operable by electric motor and a data memory element, which can be detachably connected to the kitchen appliance, can transmit data of the data memory element to the kitchen appliance while the data memory element is connected to the kitchen appliance. Further, a combination of a kitchen appliance operable by electric motor and a data memory element, which can be handled as an individual part, can bring the data memory element into contact with the kitchen appliance for data exchange.

The invention relates, in the first instance, to an electrically operated food processor () with a cooking vessel () and a lid () for the cooking vessel (), wherein it is possible to lock the lid () in the closed position in relation to the cooking vessel (), wherein, furthermore, the cooking vessel () has a base and a wall () extending upwards from the base, wherein the cooking-vessel wall () merges into a radially projecting cooking-vessel periphery (), wherein, furthermore, the lid () has a periphery () which, in the closed position, coincides with the cooking-vessel periphery (). The invention also relates to a vessel () with a lid (). In order further to improve a food processor and/or a vessel of the type in question, in particular in respect of the lid-locking means, it is proposed that the locking means is formed from a locking part () which is intended for engaging over the lid () and, by rotation about an axis (y), can be displaced from a release position into the locking position and vice versa, wherein the locking part () is of elongate design in the direction in which the axis (y) extends.

A vacuum cleaner for cleaning floors or carpets, having a suction mouth (6), a base plate (5), which encloses the suction mouth (6), and a suction line, electrostatic charging of parts of the vacuum cleaner being provided in order to assist the dust uptake. In order advantageously to provide the vacuum cleaner with the dust uptake being assisted by electrostatic charging, the base plate (5) is electrostatically charged, and the electrostatic charging is carried out by a separate generator (8) provided in the vacuum cleaner.
