Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for slicing and dividing food products such as ham, sausage, cheese, bread and the like.
  • an apparatus for slicing food products comprising a sharp circular blade driven in rotation by an electric motor.
  • This appliance furthermore has a surface for receiving the food and for guiding it towards the cutting blade.
  • this appliance is not designed for grating food.
  • a slicing and dividing device comprising a sharp circular blade rotatably mounted on a support and rotated by an electric motor.
  • This support comprises opposite the blade a sole having a surface for receiving the product to be cut. This surface is substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the blade.
  • a device for fractioning food comprising a rotary fractionation member.
  • a relatively complex mechanical device makes it possible to couple to the motor, either the cutting blade, or the fractionation member. Besides its complexity, the main drawback of this device lies in its large size.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy the drawbacks of the device known according to patent US-A-1 652132, by creating an appliance for slicing and dividing food which is simple in construction, convenient to use and which is not very bulky.
  • the apparatus contemplated by the invention comprises a circular blade mounted in rotation in a support and driven in rotation by a motor member, a sole having a surface for receiving the product to be cut, this surface being substantially parallel to the axis of rotation. of the blade, and a food splitting member which can be coupled with the aforementioned driving member.
  • this device is characterized in that the sole is articulated relative to the support and comprises a fractionation member such as grating and / or mincing, mounted in rotation along an axis perpendicular to said surface for receiving the sole, this axis being located in a plane perpendicular to the axis of articulation of the sole and passing through the axis of rotation of the blade, the axis of rotation of the fractionation member and the axis of rotation of the blade being located at the same distance from the axis of articulation of the sole and the support, and in that the fractionation member carries means making it possible to couple it in rotation to the blade after pivoting of the sole towards the blade support.
  • a fractionation member such as grating and / or mincing
  • the apparatus according to the invention thus very advantageously combines the slicing function with that of fractionation.
  • the device according to the invention has a very small storage volume.
  • the sole comprises a chute for supplying products to be fractionated.
  • This feed chute can be accommodated entirely in the thickness of the sole of the device. A very compact device is thus obtained, requiring practically no assembly or disassembly during its use or its storage.
  • the means for rotationally coupling the fractionation member comprise teeth fixed to the grating and / or mincing member, these teeth being capable of engaging with teeth made integral with the blade, after pivoting from the sole to the blade support.
  • the slicer comprises a support 1 substantially parallelepiped. On this support 1 is mounted in rotation a circular blade 2 which is flush with the front face 3a of this sup port 1.
  • the front face 3b is adjustable in depth so that it is possible to obtain slices of food product of desired thickness.
  • the blade 2 is rotated about an axis XX 'by means of an electric motor (not shown), housed in the support 1.
  • the support 1 rests on a parallelepiped sole 4 of dimensions substantially identical to those of support 1.
  • the sole 4 has a surface 5 parallel to the axis XX 'of rotation of the blade 2 intended to receive the products to be cut, such as ham, sausage, cheese, etc.
  • This receiving surface includes slides 6 intended to receive a carriage, not shown, making it possible to move the food to be cut towards the blade 2, this food being held in abutment against the face 3 of the support 1.
  • the sole 4 is articulated relative to the support 1 along an axis Y-Y 'passing in the vicinity of the intersection 7 between the receiving surface 5 of the sole 4 and the face 3a of the support 1.
  • the sole 4 comprises a cylindrical recess 8 receiving a member 9 for fractionation, for example of grating and / or mincing (see Figure 2), mounted in rotation along an axis ZZ 'perpendicular to the receiving surface 5 of the sole 4.
  • This axis ZZ ' is, moreover, situated in a plane perpendicular to the axis of articulation YY' of the sole 4 and passing through the axis of rotation XX 'of the blade 2.
  • the axis of rotation Z-Z 'of the fractionation member 9 and the axis X-X' of the blade 2 are located at the same distance d from the axis of articulation Y-Y 'of the sole 4 to the support 1.
  • the splitting member 9 carries means, which will be detailed below, making it possible to couple this rotating member to the blade 2 after pivoting of the sole 4 towards the support 1, as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the sole 4 comprises a chute 10 for supplying products to be grated and / or sliced.
  • This chute 10 extends between the fractionation member 9 and the angle 11 of the sole 4 which is opposite to its axis of articulation Y-Y '.
  • this chute 10 contains a piston 12 for pushing the products towards the fractionation member.
  • the outer surface 12a of this piston 12 is adapted to the external profile of the angle 11 of the sole 4, so that the piston 12 has no projection outside the sole 4, when this piston 12 is fully engaged in this sole 4.
  • the fractionation member 9 is a hollow cylinder whose surface carries projections 9a grating (see also Figure 3). This hollow cylinder is removably mounted in the recess 8 of the sole 4.
  • the means for rotationally coupling the fractionation member 9 comprise teeth 13 fixed on a disc 14 made integral with the end of the fractionation member 9 adjacent to the receiving area 5.
  • This pinion 16 has three internal threads 17 for fixing the circular blade 2 by means of three screws.
  • the teeth 13 of the disc 14 have engagement ramps 13a (see Figure 9), inclined at 45 °, making it possible to lock these teeth 13 on the complementary engagement ramps 15a of the teeth 15 of the pinion 16 (see Figure 5). This locking is achieved by turning the disc 14 of the fractionation member 9 in the direction of the arrow F in FIG. 6.
  • This locking is carried out manually by acting on the diametrical handle 18 of the disc 14.
  • the sole 4 is pivoted towards the support 1, around the axis Y-Y ', as shown in Figures 2 and 3.
  • the teeth 13 of the disc 14 of the organ of grating 9 come into engagement with the teeth 15 of the pinion 16 to which the blade is fixed 2.
  • the electric motor of the apparatus is started up so as to simultaneously rotate the blade 2 and the grating member 9.
  • the slicer according to the invention can be transformed into a grater or slicer, by simple pivoting of the sole 4 towards the support 1 of the blade 2, without any additional mounting operation.
  • the device In the grater or slicing position, the device is very compact, so that it can be easily stored in a kitchen cupboard.
  • the member 9 instead of being a grater can be replaced by a cylinder provided with cutting slots for slicing food products.
  • fractionation member 9 may be reversible and for this purpose comprise two distinct series of grating and / or cutting means, oriented differently with respect to each other relative to the direction of rotation of this member.
  • the grating member 9 can be constituted by a cylinder with two directions of rotation operating, for example, in one direction in a grater, and in the other direction in slicing.
