Technical Examples

A handheld mixer (10) has a body comprising a housing (12) that houses a motor and drive system and an integral handle (16), and one or more mixer attachments (20). A rotatable dial control (24) is rotatable about an axis (28) that is located within the housing (12) and, thus, only a portion of the dial (24) is exposed. The dial (24) is engaged by the user's thumb or finger of the same hand that is holding the device by its handle (16). The dial (24) comprises a smaller diameter dial (30) that is fixed to or integral with the manipulated dial (24) and which is positioned beneath a transparent surface (34) of the housing (12). The smaller dial (30) has markings that are viewed through the transparent surface (34) to indicate the larger dial position, such as "on/off"; "high/low"; and the like. Another novel feature of the present invention is an attachment eject button (36) that activates a lock to release a mixer attachment (20). The eject button (36) is positioned in close proximity to the novel dial (24) so that the user may engage the eject button (36) or the dial (24) without changing his or her grip on the handle (16).
