Electric can opener puzzle
In article ,
says...
How does my $10 counter-top electric can opener know to stop after the
can rotates 360 degrees and the lid is severed all around and sticking
to the spring-loaded magnetic arm?
I don't see any kind of sensor or probe and the rotation can't be
time-dependent because it works with different diameter cans.
So how?
The magnet is holding down the "run switch" until it (the lid) lifts from
the can.
