Abstract
A joining device joins first and second bodies. The joining is simple and can be well-maintained, between a first and a second body that are, for example, parts of a food processor, whereby the first wall forms the bottom and the second wall is an outer wall. The first wall of the first body extends substantially at a right angle to the second wall of the second body. A detent projection, which is placed on an inner side of the first wall that is encircled by the second body, is pushed into a detent opening inside the wall by the force exerted by a connection device, particularly a screw, that is joined to the first body.
Claims16
A joining device for attaching a body, comprising:
- a first body having a first wall extending substantially at a right angle to a second wall of a second body into which said first body will be inserted, said first wall having an inner side;
- a detent boss disposed on said inner side of said first wall and which can be pressed into a detent opening of the second body by force, and said detent boss being encircled by the second body in a pressed-in state;
- and
- a connection device disposed in said first body for exerting the force on said detent boss.
A joining device for attaching to a first body, which can be inserted into a second body, the first body having a first wall extending substantially at a right angle to a second wall of the second body, the joining device comprising:
- a detent boss disposed on an inner side of the first wall and can be pressed into a detent opening of the second body by force, said detent boss being encircled by the second body in a pressed-in state;
- and
- a connection device disposed in the first body for exerting the force on said detent boss.
A kitchen appliance, comprising:
- a first body having a first wall with an inner side and being a first housing part of the kitchen appliance;
- a second body having a second wall with a detent opening formed therein and being a second housing part of the kitchen appliance, said first body being inserted into said second body, said first wall extending substantially at a right angle to said second wall of said second body;
- and
- a joining device containing:
- a detent boss disposed on said inner side of said first wall and can be pressed into said detent opening of said second body by force, and said detent boss being encircled by said second body in a pressed-in state;
- and
- a connection device disposed in said first body for exerting the force on said detent boss.
