A blender, for producing ice-cream and similar, has a box-shaped outer casing; a substantially cylindrical tubular bowl having a horizontal axis and extending from the surface of, and inwards of, the box-shaped casing; and a cover fitted movably to the box-shaped casing so as to be positioned closing the inlet of the bowl, a hopper projecting from the body of the cover, a safety grille fixed removably to the body of the cover and designed to partly occupy the inlet of the hopper. The cover has a number of parallel, aligned, projecting pins projecting from the body of the cover. The safety grille has a supporting crosspiece extending astride the projecting pins and having a number of transverse dead holes engaged firmly, but easily removably, by respective aforementioned projecting pins; and a rigid grille structure projecting from the supporting crosspiece to engage the inlet of the hopper.

The invention claimed is: 1. A blender for producing ice-cream and similar, the blender comprising a box-shaped outer casing; a substantially cylindrical tubular bowl extending from the surface of, and inwards of, the box-shaped casing and coaxially with a first reference axis; and a hatch designed to close the inlet of the bowl and fitted movably to said box-shaped casing so as to be positioned closing the inlet of said bowl; said hatch comprising a substantially porthole-like cover, which is designed to close the inlet of the bowl in fluidtight manner, is fitted to said box-shaped casing to move to and from an operating position closing the inlet of the bowl, and has a central through opening positioned close to the centre of the inlet of the bowl when the cover is positioned closing the inlet of the bowl; said hatch also comprising a hopper projecting from the body of the cover and connected to said central through opening, and a safety grille fixed removably to the body of said cover and designed to partly occupy the inlet of said hopper; wherein said cover comprises a number of parallel, aligned, projecting pins projecting from the body of the cover; and said safety grille comprises a supporting crosspiece extending astride said projecting pins and having a number of transverse dead holes engaged firmly, but easily removably, by respective said projecting pins, and a rigid grille structure projecting from said supporting crosspiece to engage the inlet of said hopper. 2. A blender as claimed in claim 1, wherein said cover is hinged to the box-shaped casing of the blender, alongside the inlet of the bowl, so as to rotate, about a second reference axis, between a first operating position, in which said cover closes the inlet of the bowl, and a second operating position, in which said cover is located to the side of said inlet of the bowl to permit direct access to said bowl. 3. A blender as claimed in claim 2, wherein said first reference axis is substantially horizontal, and said second reference axis is substantially vertical. 4. A blender as claimed in claim 3, wherein said projecting pins project substantially vertically from a straight horizontal portion of the peripheral edge of said cover, and said supporting crosspiece rests on said straight horizontal portion. 5. A blender as claimed in claim 1, wherein the projecting pins project from a portion of the peripheral edge of the cover, so as to be substantially parallel to and face the surface of the box-shaped casing surrounding the inlet of said bowl. 6. A blender as claimed in claim 1, further comprising an electric control device for determining when said cover is positioned closing the inlet of said bowl, and when said supporting crosspiece of the safety grille is fitted to said projecting pins, with the rigid grille structure engaging the inlet of said hopper. 7. A blender as claimed in claim 6, wherein said electric control device comprises at least one permanent magnet and a corresponding magnetic presence sensor, which are located one on the supporting crosspiece of said safety grille, and the other on said box-shaped casing of the blender, so as only to be positioned facing each other when the supporting crosspiece is fitted to the projecting pins, and the cover is positioned closing the inlet of the bowl. 8. A blender as claimed in claim 7, wherein said at least one permanent magnet is fixed stably to the body of said supporting crosspiece, adjacent to or at one of said transverse dead holes for receiving said projecting pins, and said at least one presence sensor is located inside said box-shaped casing so as to face said permanent magnet when the supporting crosspiece is fitted to the projecting pins, and the cover is positioned closing the inlet of said bowl.
