Embodiment Construction

[0011] Referring to FIG. 1 , there is shown a popcorn processing apparatus 10 including a container 12 connected to a processing tray assembly 14 and a base 16 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Base 16 is adapted to rest on a generally flat surface, such as a counter or table top.

[0012] FIG. 2 shows an exploded view of popcorn processor 10 . The container 12 is used to hold the corn kernels during the processing stage of the corn kernels, and can serve as a container for popcorn during the process of enjoying the popcorn. Container 12 may be made of plastic or other material sufficient to contain popcorn and withstand the heat necessary during processing of the grains. The top of the container 12 is provided with a raised flange 13 . The raised flange 13 helps prevent overheating and cold shrinkage from affecting the counter or table top. Container 12 is preferably transparent so that a user can see the grain during its processing. Howe...

Abstract

The invention is concerned with a kind of machining equipment of popcorn, relating to container and base seat connecting to the machining salver groupware. The machining salver groupware holds and heats grains of corn and cracks them. There is a muddler revolves on the heating salver to move the grains of corn during the machining period. The machining equipment uses more little oil than microwave or other types of popcorn and gets healthy popcorn. The machining salver groupware has safe interlock framework to remove the groupware out of the base seat safely and easily to clean. And it also has safety framework of heater to cut out power supply of heater automatically when machining salver groupware is removed out of the base seat. When machining salver groupware is not connecting with base seat, it will cut off the power supply of heater and the groupware stops working.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a popcorn maker, and more particularly, to a popcorn maker having a container and processing tray that are removable for easy cleaning, and likewise to a popcorn maker that enables the user to control the corn, oil, and seasoning Types and quantities of popcorn processors. Background technique [0002] Various popcorn processing devices are known in the art for processing corn kernels into popcorn. There are many different ways to heat corn kernels, utilizing different ingredients to aid in the process. But other known devices do not allow the user to easily disassemble those parts of said device so that they can be cleaned. Other known devices also do not have an effective safety mechanism that prevents the device from working when the parts have been cleaned and reassembled. They also don't promote healthier popcorn processed with the least amount of oil, nor do they allow users to mix various toppings into their p...
