Abstract
A process for the production of a whisk for an electric kitchen beater, comprising a rod (12) having at one of its ends a hub (15) carrying at least two loops (19, 20) each forming an agitator and made from a metallic wire whose ends are secured to the hub, the hub (15) being produced by an over-molding operation by injection of a plastic material onto the rod (12) and onto the two loops (19, 20) adjacent the rod. Before over-molding the hub on the end of the rod and adjacent portions of the loops, the loops are positioned in a mold in planes transverse to the horizontal axis of the rod. Then, after molding, the loops are swung down into their final position in which their sections (19b, 20b) opposite the hub (15) contact each other. At this contact point (P), the loops are secured together as by welding. In this way, a complicated mold for the hub, that would accommodate the loops in their final position, is not necessary.
