Mixing vessel for an electric motor-operated food processor

The invention relates to a mixing vessel (1) for an electric motor-operated food processor (2), with a vessel floor (3), an agitator (4) extending through the vessel floor (3) into the mixing vessel (1), and a foot part (5) that can be externally connected with the vessel floor (3), which is designed for fixing the agitator (4) to the vessel floor (3). In order to prevent a user from filling the mixing vessel (1) without the agitator (4) properly assembled in the food processor (2), it is proposed that the vessel floor (3) or foot part (5) have a blocking element (6) that can be exposed to the spring force of a spring element (36), and can be shifted against the spring force by means of a corresponding contact element (7) of the foot part (5) or vessel floor (3) from a blocking position that prevents a fixation of the agitator (4) into a release position that enables a fixation.
