Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vegetable cutter for household use according to the first part of claim 1.
  • a vegetable cutter of this type is known from Italian utility model application No. 53366 B / 79 (JT-U-177580).
  • This vegetable cutter has a receiving funnel, obtained on a strip-like support, for the vegetables to be cut, whereby a frame-like cutting insert provided with cutting knives can be detachably received in a seat provided for this purpose in the receiving funnel, and a pressure insert which can be pivoted into the receiving funnel in the upper part of the funnel provided pressure lever is pivotally mounted.
  • three cutting inserts are provided, each of which has its own cutting function.
  • a first cutting insert having parallel cutting knives is used for slicing the vegetables
  • a second cutting insert provided with grid-like cutting knives is used for stick cutting of the vegetables
  • a third, perforated cutting insert made of plastic is used to prepare vegetable porridges, starting from cooked vegetables.
  • Dice cutting is obtained when cutting again in the vegetable cutter provided with the cutting insert with parallel cutting knives from vegetable sticks already cut in advance.
  • the cutting insert having the grid-like arranged cutting knives requires a lengthy production and the cutting knives mechanically weakening.
  • a considerable amount of force is required to operate the pressure lever, which often leads to a shifting or relocation of the cutting knives to one another. This inevitably results in irregular thicknesses of the cut pieces of vegetables.
  • Another disadvantage is the ability to cut vegetable slices with a certain thickness. In order to be able to cut diced vegetable pieces with this vegetable cutter, the distance between the cutting knives of the cutting insert for cutting vegetable slices is necessarily the same as the leg length of the individual square openings of the cutting insert for stick cutting, i.e. H. The thickness of the potato slices cut with this vegetable slicer is considerable and not suitable for the preparation of French fries.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a vegetable cutter for household use with fixed cutting knives, which is able to eliminate the disadvantages and inadmissibility of the known design on the one hand and on the other hand to cut vegetable slices with both larger and smaller thickness, and the other types of cutting, d.
  • H. To cut sticks and cubes of vegetables. namely with only two cutting blades with cutting inserts that can be picked up in the vegetable slicer, the cutting inserts having an extremely powerful and stable construction, which ensure a reliable and permanent mode of operation even when cutting raw and hard vegetables.
  • the proposed vegetable cutter should also create a cutting process, which - especially when cutting raw and hard vegetables, such as. B. beets and potatoes, - can be carried out with a relatively soft and even pressure.
  • the desired essentially soft and uniform cutting pressure force is achieved by means of two features.
  • a feature which aims to reduce the sliding friction that occurs between the vegetables and the cutting blades during the cutting process.
  • This feature consists in the cutting knife thickness decreasing in the vegetable exit direction.
  • the cutting knives of the two cutting inserts preferably have the same division, the cutting knives of one cutting insert being offset by a half division with respect to the cutting knives of the other cutting insert.
  • the positioning means preferably consist on the one hand of strip-like ribs on the legs of the movable cutting insert on one base surface thereof, the said ribs having a length which is essentially the same but shorter than the inside width of the movable cutting insert, and on the other hand in each side wall a receiving groove on the other hand, this receiving groove is intended for receiving the strip-like rib of the movable cutting insert that is respectively introduced and has a matching cross section.
  • the blocking means provided preferably consist of a tongue having a tongue grip and a receiving seat, which is obtained in one piece in a side wall, wherein a preferably wedge-shaped projection provided on each frame leg of the movable cutting insert can be snapped into the tongue receiving seats.
  • the pressure section preferably forms a single part with the same.
  • the cutting inserts are also preferably provided as a frame made of plastic, the cutting knife ends being embedded in the cutting insert frame.
  • the vegetable cutter according to the invention is denoted overall by 1 for household use.
  • the same has a strip-like support 2 which has at one end a receiving funnel 3 for receiving the vegetables to be cut and two side walls 4, 5 for receiving the frame-like cutting inserts described in more detail below.
  • the vegetable slicer also has a pressure lever 6 which is pivotally supported in FIG. 7 by a bearing shaft (not shown in detail) in the side walls 4, 5.
  • the pressure lever 6 also has a pressure sector 8 which, after the production of the said pressure lever 6, contains the actual pressure section 9 in one piece, wherein in the pressure section 9 a number of grooves 10 are obtained which introduce the actual pressure surface 11 between the cutting blades 12 of the first of the two cutting inserts 13 and 14 provided according to the invention.
  • the maximum insertion position of the printing surface 11 within the first cutting insert 13 is determined by the contact between the stop edge 8a of the printing sector 8 and the front edge 3a of the receiving funnel 3.
  • the side walls 4 and 5 form a receiving chamber 15 with respect to one another for receiving the cutting inserts 13, 14, the cutting insert 13 according to the invention preferably being received in a stationary manner in the receiving chamber 15 or between the side walls 4, 5.
  • the stationary cutting insert 13 has a square, preferably square, design and has a frame 13a, which is preferably made of plastic.
  • the ends of the cutting knives 12 are mounted in two opposite frame legs. This is advantageously done by embedding the ends of these cutting knives in the cutting insert frame 13a.
  • the second cutting insert 14 can be releasably inserted into the receiving chamber 15 with cutting knives 16, which are either parallel with respect to the cutting knives 12 of the stationary cutting insert 13 or, after a rotation of 90 °, with the movable cutting insert 14 with respect to the aforementioned Cutting knives 12 are placed at right angles to the cutting knives 12 mentioned.
  • the second cutting insert 14 has a square design, which makes it possible to insert the cutting insert 14 into the receiving chamber 15 as desired in one of the two insertion positions rotated by 90 °.
  • the same has a wedge-shaped projection 17 on the four frame legs, said projections 17 being at the same distance a with respect to the adjacent frame edge.
  • An elastic tongue 18 cooperates with the projections 17, which is obtained in one piece in the side wall 4 and has a tongue grip 19 and a continuous receiving seat 20.
  • 21 denotes a groove obtained in the opposite side wall 5, which is used to receive the respective projection 17 of the movable cutting insert 14 sliding in it during the insertion movement thereof into the vegetable cutter.
  • four positioning ribs 22 are formed on a base surface of the frame of the second cutting insert 14, the extension of which corresponds to a maximum of the internal light width of the said cutting insert 14. The positioning ribs, which are vertical in each case in the selected insertion position, are received in a guide groove 23 having a conjugate cross section and obtained in the side walls 4 and 5.
  • the drawing also shows that the distance or the "division b between the cutting knives 12 and 16 is the same for both cutting inserts 13 and 14, the cutting knives of a cutting insert being a total of half a division b / 2 with respect to the Cutting knife of the other cutting insert are arranged offset. Good results have been achieved with a pitch b of 9 mm.
  • FIG. 8 the cutting knives are arranged essentially in a fan-like manner, whereas in FIG. 8 they are arranged parallel to one another and their thickness tapers in the starting direction.
  • the path between two cutting knives arranged next to one another is designed to be slightly diverging in the starting direction, in order to create a possibility of letting out the water or moisture film that forms on the cutting product during the cutting process.
  • the vegetable cutter according to the invention has no protruding part, it does not require any parts or accessories separate from it and is very easy to use in handling. It is also easy to clean.
  • the scope of protection also provides for the movable cutting insert to be introduced laterally into the receiving funnel instead of from below.
  • both the design of the strip-like support and the receiving funnel and the pressure lever, as well as the individual components of the vegetable cutter according to the invention or the frame-like cutting inserts of the same, can be chosen as desired, without thereby increasing the scope of protection of the present invention as specified in the claims leave.
