Abstract
A stand mixer includes a securing apparatus configured to retain a bowl on a stand mixer, the securing apparatus incudes a leaf spring mounted to a bowl support at a first end portion of the leaf spring. The leaf spring extends away from the column to a second end portion of the leaf spring and defines a receiving orifice at the second end portion of the leaf spring. A retractor is configured to translate a bolt away from the second end portion of the leaf spring when a bowl support is in the nonmixing position. An extender is configured to translate the bolt toward the second end portion of the leaf spring when the bowl support is in the mixing position.
