摘要:
A food processing appliance 100 comprises an enclosure 102, 104 for receiving an item; a UV radiation source 204 operable to irradiate items in the enclosure with UV light; and a safety mechanism 208 arranged to prevent access to the enclosure when the radiation source is irradiating the item in the enclosure. The enclosure may comprise a container and the appliance may have a processor for controlling the UV radiation source. The appliance may have a pressure sensor in communication with the processor for detecting attachment of the lid to the container. At least part of the enclosure has an electro-chromic capability and is switchable such that at least part of the enclosure is opaque when the UV source is on and clear when the UV source is off.
