Abstract
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.
