Rotary beater and kitchen appliance for use with a rotary beater

A rotary beater (1) adapted to be rotated in a predetermined direction of rotation (R), the beater comprising:

• a drive shaft (2) adapted to be coupled to a drive arrangement, the drive shaft (2) defining a longitudinal axis (16) about which the beater is rotatable;
• a beater body (6), comprising at least one wire loop (8) which is coupled to the drive shaft (2) and which extends from the drive shaft (2) in the direction of the longitudinal axis (16) and is led back to drive shaft (2) after a plurality of changes in its direction, wherein the at least one wire loop (8) comprises:
• a first section (I) comprising two first segments (8a, 8h) connecting the wire loop (8) to the drive shaft,
• a second section (II) comprising two upper segments (8b, 8g) and two lower segments (8c, 8f), wherein each upper segment (8b, 8g) is connected to a respective first segment (8a,8h) of the first section (I), and to a respective lower segment (8c, 8f) of the second section (II),
• a third section (III) comprising two third segments (8d, 8e), each third segment (8d, 8e) being connected to the other third segment (8e, 8d) and to one lower segment (8c, 8f) of the second section (II), and
• wherein each couple of mutually connected upper and lower segments (8b, 8c;
• 8g, 8f) of the second section (II) define a plane (Xa, Xb) which is substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis (16) or has a small angle with respect thereto, and wherein said mutually connected upper and lower segments (8b, 8c;
• 8g, 8f) define an angle (□ with respect to each other in said plane (Xa, Xb), such that said mutually connected upper segments (8b, 8g) and lower segments (8c, 8f) have different angular orientations with respect to the longitudinal direction.
