In an apparatus for blending and kneading ingredients comprising an open-topped container for the ingredients to be blended and kneaded into a cohesive mass, such as dough, a lid for the container, rotary drive means mounted on the lid, and a kneader arm removably mountable to the rotary drive means for rotatable drive thereby, the improvement comprises means for mounting the lid so as to enable limited angular movement of the kneader arm axis within the container for enabling the axis of rotation of the kneader arm to sweep across the container bottom during rotation of the kneader arm as the viscosity of the mixture of ingredients being kneaded increases. This is achieved by using interengaging parts on the lid and container, preferably lugs on the lid and handles on the container, which allow for rocking and elevational movement of the lid. Preferably a flexible lid is utilized, and experiences an undulating movement enhancing the angular movement of the kneader arm axis. |
