Abstract
A food processor includes a main body with a graspable handle. A base plate is disposed in the main body. The base plate has a peripheral wall for defining a chamber. The peripheral wall has a discharge cutout along one circumferential part. A cover is removably placed over the base plate. A rotary blade supported on a driven shaft projects into the chamber between the cover and the base plate. An electric switch for the electric drive motor to the shaft includes a switch lever that pivots toward the main body to close contacts to the drive motor. A bar normally blocks for pivoting of the switch lever until the cover is placed on the base plate. The cover pushes the bar away from blocking the switch lever for enabling the switch lever to pivot to contact the contacts for activating the drive motor.
