Processing assembly

A processing assembly includes a motor coupled to operate a grinding mechanism of a food waste processor. A first switch is coupled to selectively block power supply from a power source to a main winding of the electric machine, and a second switch is coupled to selectively block power supply from the power source to a starting winding of the electric machine. The control circuit is configured to close the first and second switches during an initial start-up, detect a voltage of at least one of the main winding and the start-up winding, and open the second switch in response to detecting a voltage above a start-up voltage threshold. The control circuit is further configured to, after opening the second switch, close the second switch in response to detecting a voltage below a low voltage threshold indicative of an overload condition of the electric machine. 一种处理组件，包括：电机，所述电机被联接以操作食物垃圾处理器的磨碎机构。第一开关被联接以选择性地阻止从电源到电机的主绕组的电力供应，并且第二开关被联接以选择性地阻止从电源到电机的启动绕组的电力供应。控制电路被配置成在初始启动期间闭合第一和第二开关，检测主绕组和启动绕组中的至少一个的电压，并且响应于检测到高于
