TITLE: DUAL COVER AND FEED TUBE PROTECTOR ACTUATION APPARATUS FOR A FOOD PROCESSOR INVENTOR: JAMES E. WILLIAMS ABSTRACT Dual actuating apparatus is provided for a food processor of the type having a motor with a working bowl, a motor-driven member in the bowl for receiving rotatable tools and with a removable cover positioned on the bowl during the operation which carries a feed tube for feeding food items to be processed into the bowl. An expanded feed tube protector has an outer sleeve which is adapted to be nested over the feed tube and this sleeve is associated with a captivated, movable food pusher which is mounted for movement within the sleeve. In accordance with the present invention the cover and the outer sleeve of the feed tube protector each carry a portion of a dual actuator cam, a first portion of the cam being mount- ed on the cover while the second portion is mounted on the outer sleeve of the feed tube protector. Previously the cam for depressing the actuator rod of the food processor was a one-piece unit mounted and extending downward from the outer sleeve of the feed tube protector. The advantageous separation of the cam into two portions acting in dual relationship assures that the food processor is not operative unless the two portions of the cam are positioned together in cooperative action side-by-side on the bowl requiring the placement of both the cover and the feed tube protector in their proper positions on the working bowl before the food processor can be actuated.
