Abstract
A whisk attachment for use with an automated mixer is disclosed. The whisk attachment includes a coupling member, at least two coil members, and a brace. The first coil member has first and second ends attached to the coupling member to define the first coil member having a substantially parabolic shape. The second coil member also has first and second ends attached to the coupling member to define the second coil member also having a substantially parabolic shape. The brace is attached to each of the first and second coil members to resist relative movement of the first coil member with respect to the second coil member.
Claims20
A whisk attachment for an automated stand mixer comprising:
- a coupling member adapted to be removably coupled to an automated stand mixer;
- a first coil member having a first end and a second end, the first and second ends of the first coil member attached to the coupling member at first coil member end points, the first coil member having a substantially parabolic portion;
- a second coil member having a first end and a second end, the first and second ends of the second coil member attached to the coupling member at second coil member end points, the second coil member having a substantially parabolic portion;
- and
- a brace attached to the substantially parabolic portion of each of the first and second coil members, wherein the brace restricts relative movement of the first coil member with respect to the second coil member,
- wherein at least the first coil member is tineless.
A whisk attachment for a mixer comprising:
- a coupling member;
- a first coil member having a first end and a second end, the first and second ends of the first coil member each attached to the coupling member by stem portions at first coil member endpoints, the first coil member further having a substantially parabolic portion between the stem portions;
- a second coil member having a first end and a second end, the first and second ends of the second coil member each attached to the coupling member by stem portions at second coil member endpoints, the second coil member further having a substantially parabolic portion between the stem portions;
- the first coil member crossing the second coil member;
- and
- a cross-brace attached to each of the first and second coil members, the brace being separately attached to two different locations of the first coil member on opposite sides of a first coil member vertex and the brace also being separately attached to two different locations of the second coil member on opposite sides of a second coil member vertex,
- wherein the brace restricts relative movement of the first coil member with respect to the second coil member and wherein at least one of the coil members is tineless.
