Abstract
A lifting mechanism for a toaster comprises a first arm (2) pivotally mounted about a first horizontal axis (8) for movement between a lowered position and a raised position; a second arm (3) pivotally mounted about a second horizontal axis (9) spaced from and parallel to the first horizontal axis for movement between a lowered position and a raised position; and a raising device connected to at least one of the arms for raising it from its lowered position in its raised position. The arms (2, 3) cross one another at cut outs (4, 5) intermediate their length and interact so that movement of the first arm (2) from its lowered position to its raised position causes movement of the second arm (3) from its raised position to its lowered position.
