Detachable power supply apparatus

An electric cooking appliance having a detachable power supply comprising:

• a) an electric cooking appliance having a vertical axis passing through a geometric center of said electric cooking appliance;
• b) a panel connected to said electric cooking appliance, said panel having a first mount surface and a pair of electrical terminals electrically coupled to said electric cooking appliance, said first mount surface having an upper edge and a lower edge and extending at an angle with respect to horizontal when said electric cooking appliance is supported in an upright alignment on a horizontal surface, such that said upper edge of said first mount surface is closer to said vertical axis than is said lower edge of said first mount surface;
• c) a power supply cord having a receptacle secured at a first end of an electrical cord;
• a second mount surface formed on an outer face of said receptacle and a pair of terminal receiving bores extending into said receptacle from said outer face thereof for receiving said electrical terminals;
• said terminal receiving bores having a diameter which is sufficiently larger than an outer diameter of said terminals to permit said receptacle to pivot away from said terminals without interference from said terminals;
• d) a magnetized member attached to one of the first mount surface of the panel or the second mount surface of the receptacle and a ferrous contact attached to the other of the first or second mount surface for removably coupling said power supply cord to said electric cooking appliance.
