Abstract
A milk-whipping device is disclosed. The device includes a heating base, a cylindrical container for the milk which rests on the base and which has a thermal exchange, a sealing closing flange, an impeller inserted in the container to produce an emulsifying effect on the milk; and a pair of connecting arms which can be snap-actuated. The connecting arms are revolvingly constrained to the base and extend along the lateral skirt of the container until hooking onto the closing flange.
Claims15
A device for the preparation of an emulsified hot beverage, in particular a milk-based beverage, comprising:
- a heating base;
- a container of the emulsified hot beverage, configured to be removably supported upon said heating base, a bottom heat exchange surface of the container being rested upon an upper surface of the heating base, the bottom heat surface of the container and the upper surface of the heating base being configured to couple thermally with each other so as to implement a thermal exchange by conduction;
- a closing element of said container, configured to be removably arranged at a mouth of said container;
- an impeller, inserted or insertable in said container and configured to produce an emulsifying effect in the beverage,
- a connecting arm, which connecting arm extends, in use, along a lateral skirt of said container between said heating base and said closing element, which connecting arm is configured to retain mutually juxtaposed said heating base, said container and said closing element,
- wherein said connecting arm, is revolvingly coupled to said heating base and is configured for the hooking or interlocking engagement, at or near a shaped end thereof, with the said closing element.
