Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a foot (6) of a device, in particular of a table-top kitchen appliance (1), wherein the device has a housing (5) comprising an appendage (9), which projects downwards in the case of a common setup, which rests on a foot part (12), which forms a base (10), by interlaying a soft part (25), wherein the soft part (25) is received in a shell section (18) of the foot part (12), which is open to the top, and the appendage, which projects into the shell section, is also movably received in the shell section at right angles to a deflection movement as a result of a weight force of the device, wherein the soft part furthermore forms an upper impact surface (27) for the appendage (9). To attain a better position of the device in response to movement, it is proposed that, starting at the impact surface, the soft part (25) is to also be embodied without a weight-loading by the appendage (9), also laterally to the appendage (9) on the top.
