It can be seen that blenders are almost in all kitchens. They mix ingredients to make cookies, cakes, muffins, bread, desserts and other foods. Due to their versatility and being a favorite tool for people setting up new households, let's now learn about the working principle and troubleshooting of blenders.
The Working Principle of the Blender
The blender is a small electric household appliance. That is to say, instead of heating, they move things. In this case, they move or mix food ingredients. Obviously, the motor is the main component of the food blender. Hence, the gears. The gears convert the rotational motion of the motor to a counter-rotational motion. The speed of the blender is controlled by varying the current supplied to the motor through a speed controller.
There are two types of food mixers: portable (or hand) mixers and stationary (or stand) mixers. Portable mixers are lightweight and have small motors for easy blending and mixing. Stand mixers use larger motors and components to handle larger tasks, such as mixing pasta and large quantities of ingredients.
How to Repair a Blender
The simple maintenance of a blender includes switch maintenance, speed control repair, gear maintenance, etc.
Maintaining the switch: The switch is a simple component that allows small appliances to stop working easily. If the mixer doesn't work, check the plug and power cord and test the switch.
Test and replace the switches:
1. Carefully remove the switch exposed on the back and switch it to the surrounding houses.
2. Check the terminals of the switch to ensure it is connected to the switch through the household appliance wires.
3. Mark the termination line of the position and cut it off.
4. Use a continuity tester or tester to determine whether the switch is faulty. If so, replace it and reconnect the terminal code.
