Abstract

A chopper for chopping up food has an upper portion and a push rod, displaceable therein, with an actuation head and a blade. A lower portion is connected to the upper portion, and a chopped material cup serves to receive the chopped material. Inserted in the upper portion and on the top surface of the actuation head are parts made of a material which is softer than the material of the upper portion or respectively of the actuation head. Thanks to the soft parts inserted in the upper portion, the chopper can be securely held by hand. The soft part inserted on the actuation head damps the blows exerted by hand for chopping.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Hacker zum Zerkleinern von Lebensmitteln, mit einem Oberteil, einem in diesem verschiebbaren Stössel mit einem Betätigungskopf und einem Messer und einem mit dem Oberteil verbundenen Unterteil.The invention relates to a chopper for chopping food, with a top part, a slide in this slide with a Actuating head and a knife and one connected to the upper part Base.

Derartige Hacker sind in vielerlei Ausführungsarten bekannt. Sie werden benutzt, indem vorbereitete Lebensmittel, zum Beispiel geschälte Zwiebeln, auf einem Brett oder in einem zum Hacker passenden Becher bereitgelegt und dann durch das Messer des Hacker zerkleinert werden, indem der Benutzer mit einer Hand so oft auf den Betätigungskopf drückt oder schlägt, bis der gewünschte Zerkleinerungsgrad erreicht ist. Dabei wird der Hacker mit der anderen Hand am Oberteil festgehalten. Mit dem Stössel ist üblicherweise ein Mechanismus verbunden, der diesen bei jedem Hub ein wenig dreht, damit das Messer das Hackgut jedesmal in einem anderen Winkel trifft. Eine Rückholfeder bringt den Stössel nach jedem Schnitt in eine obere Ausgangslage zurück.Such hackers are known in many different types. she are used by preparing prepared foods, such as peeled onions, laid out on a board or in a mug suitable for the hacker and then be crushed by the hacker's knife by the user presses or strikes the actuating head with one hand until the desired degree of shredding is reached. The hacker is with the other Hand held on top. With the pestle is usually a Mechanism connected that rotates it a little with each stroke, so that Knife hits the wood chips at a different angle each time. A return spring brings the ram back to an upper starting position after each cut.

Bei diesen bekannten Hackern besteht ein Problem darin, dass der Betätigungskopf an der Hand Schmerzen verursachen kann, wenn schlagende Bewegungen ausgeführt werden. Man hat deshalb schon Betätigungsköpfe mit einer grossen Oberfläche konstruiert, um bei der Betätigung die auf die Hand wirkende Flächenpressung gering zu halten. Der Grösse des Betätigungskopfes sind aber praktische und ästhetische Grenzen gesetzt. Ein weiteres Problem ist in vielen Fällen das Festhalten des Hackers an seinem Oberteil. Insbesondere wenn der Benutzer nasse Hände hat, kann es leicht passieren, dass ihm der Hacker aus der Hand gleitet. Auch die Reinigung der bekannten Hacker nach dem Gebrauch gestaltet sich in manchen Fällen umständlich. Wenn schliesslich bekannte Hacker der beschriebenen Art aus Kunststoff mittels Spritzgiessverfahrens in verschiedenen Farben produziert werden sollen, bereitet jeder Farbwechsel einen erheblichen Aufwand, insbesondere durch den Stillstand der betreffenden Spritzgiessmaschine und nicht selten auch durch den Verlust der unmittelbar nach dem Farbwechsel gegossenen Teile infolge Farbunreinheiten. A problem with these known hackers is that the Actuating head on hand can cause pain when striking Movements are performed. One therefore already has actuating heads a large surface designed to be easy to handle when pressed keep the surface pressure low. The size of the actuator head but there are practical and aesthetic limits. Another problem is in many cases holding the hacker to his top. In particular if the user has wet hands, it can easily happen that the user Hacker slips out of hand. Even cleaning the well-known hackers after In some cases, use is cumbersome. When finally known hackers of the type described made of plastic by means of injection molding Every color change prepares to be produced in different colors a considerable effort, in particular due to the standstill of the concerned Injection molding machine and not infrequently also through the loss of parts cast immediately after the color change due to color impurities.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegen der Erfindung die Aufgaben zu Grunde, einen Hacker vorzuschlagen, bei dem die beim Betätigen mit der Hand auf den Betätigungskopf ausgeübten Schläge so weit gedämpft werden, dass sie dem Benutzer keine Schmerzen verursachen und/oder dessen Oberteil so griffig ist, dass der Hacker dem Benutzer nicht aus der Hand rutscht, selbst wenn diese nass ist.Based on this prior art, the invention Tasks based on proposing a hacker, in which the when operating dampened blows so far by hand on the actuating head that they do not cause pain to the user and / or his Top is so handy that the hacker does not get out of hand from the user slips even when wet.

Diese Aufgaben werden gemäss der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, dass im Oberteil und/oder auf der Oberseite des Betätigungskopfes Teile aus einem Material eingesetzt sind, das weicher ist als das Material des Oberteils beziehungsweise des Betätigungskopfes.According to the invention, these objects are achieved in that Parts from one in the upper part and / or on the upper side of the actuating head Are used material that is softer than the material of the upper part or of the actuating head.

Durch diese Massnahmen wird es auch möglich, eine grosse Anzahl von Oberteilen und Betätigungsköpfen aus einem farblosen oder einheitlich gefärbten Material herzustellen und den Hackern bei der Endmontage durch Einsetzen der weichen Teile aus einem Material mit einer anderen Farbe ein spezielles Aussehen zu verleihen.These measures also make it possible to have a large number of tops and actuating heads from a colorless or uniform to produce colored material and the hackers during final assembly Insert the soft parts from a material with a different color to give a special look.

Vorzugsweise ist das Material der eingesetzten Teile deutlich weicher als das Material des Oberteils beziehungsweise des Betätigungskopfes, besonders bevorzugt derart gummielastisch, dass es sich von Hand elastisch verformen lässt. Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsart der Erfindung hat das auf der Oberseite des Betätigungskopfes eingesetzte Teil die Form einer Kugelkalotte. Wenn zwischen dem Betätigungskopf und dem Teil mit der Form einer Kugelkalotte ein als Luftpolster dienender Hohlraum vorgesehen ist, werden die beim Hacken durch die Hand des Benutzers auf den Betätigungskopf ausgeübten Schläge noch besser gedämpft. Die im Oberteil eingesetzten Teile, vorzugsweise mindestens zwei Stück, weisen vorzugsweise eine ovale Form auf, wodurch das Oberteil besonders bequem mit einer Hand umfasst werden kann. Sowohl die im Oberteil eingesetzten Teile als auch das auf dem Betätigungskopf aufgesetzte Teil weisen vorzugsweise jeweils mindestens zwei Befestigungszungen auf, die in entsprechenden Öffnungen des Oberteils beziehungsweise des Betätigungskopfes aufgenommen sind und darin mittels an den Befestigungszungen vorgesehener Rastnasen festgehalten werden. Durch diese Befestigungsart können die eingesetzten Teile ohne Zuhilfenahme von Werkzeugen entfernt und auch wieder eingesetzt werden. Nach einer weiteren besonderen Ausführungsart der Erfindung weist das Oberteil im Bereich jedes der in ihm eingesetzten Teile jeweils eine Öffnung auf, die durch das entsprechende Teil abgedeckt ist. Wird das eingesetzte Teil entfernt, kann durch diese Öffnung hindurch das Innere des Hackers ausgespült werden.The material of the parts used is preferably significantly softer as the material of the upper part or the actuating head, particularly preferably so elastic that it is elastic by hand deforms. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention part inserted on the top of the actuating head in the form of a spherical cap. If between the actuator head and the part with the shape of a Spherical cap is provided as a cavity serving as an air cushion those exerted on the actuating head when chopping by the user's hand Shocks dampened even better. The parts used in the top part, preferably at least two pieces, preferably have an oval shape on, which means that the upper part can be comfortably gripped with one hand can. Both the parts used in the upper part and that on the actuating head attached parts preferably each have at least two fastening tongues on that in corresponding openings of the upper part or of the actuating head are received and therein by means of the Fastening tongues provided locking tabs are held. By this type of fastening can be used by the parts used without the help of Tools removed and reinserted. After another special embodiment of the invention, the upper part in the area of each the parts used in it each have an opening through the corresponding Part is covered. If the inserted part is removed, you can use it The inside of the chopper can be rinsed out.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand eines in den beiliegenden Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels beispielsweise näher erläutert.The invention is described below with reference to the enclosed Drawings of the illustrated embodiment, for example, explained in more detail.

In Figur 1 ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines erfindungsgemässen Hackers perspektivisch dargestellt. Der Stössel 6 ist in dieser Ansicht niedergedrückt, damit unten das Messer 9 sichtbar ist, welches in diesem Beispiel zickzackartig gebogen ist. Das Oberteil des Hackers besteht aus zwei Teilen 1 und 2, die zu Reinigungszwecken um Scharnierstifte 3 und 4 (4 nur in Figur 3 sichtbar) nach oben schwenkbar sind, wenn das Unterteil 11, welches mit dem Oberteil bajonettartig verbunden ist, abgenommen ist. Ein Hackgutbecher 13 ist unterhalb des Hackers dargestellt. Oben am Stössel 6 ist ein Betätigungskopf 8 angebracht. Von den erfindungsgemässen Einsatzteilen, die später noch genauer beschrieben werden, sind in dieser Figur die Teile 14 und 17 sichtbar.In Figure 1 is an embodiment of an inventive Hackers shown in perspective. The plunger 6 is depressed in this view, so that the knife 9 is visible below, which in this example is zigzag is bent. The upper part of the hacker consists of two parts 1 and 2, for cleaning purposes around hinge pins 3 and 4 (4 only visible in Figure 3) are pivotable upward when the lower part 11, which with the Upper part is connected bayonet-like, is removed. A wood chip cup 13 is shown below the hacker. At the top of the plunger 6 is an actuating head 8 appropriate. Of the insert parts according to the invention, which will be described in more detail later the parts 14 and 17 are visible in this figure.

Figur 2 zeigt ebenfalls eine perspektivische Ansicht des Hackers, wobei hier im Gegensatz zur Darstellung nach Figur 1 der Stössel in seiner oberen Ausgangslage gezeigt ist, in welcher er durch die Rückholfeder 7 gehalten wird. Über dem Betätigungskopf 8 ist eine Kalotte 17 dargestellt, an der vier Befestigungszungen 18 einstückig angeordnet sind. Die Kalotte wird auf dem Betätigungskopf 8 befestigt, indem die Befestigungszungen 18 in entsprechende, im Betätigungskopf 8 vorgesehene Öffnungen eingreifen und darin mittels Rastnasen (siehe Figur 4) festgehalten werden. Die Kalotte besteht aus einem Material, das wesentlich weicher ist als das Material des Betätigungskopfes 8, derart, dass die Kalotte 17 sich beim Betätigen mit der Hand elastisch verformen kann. Die Flexibilität des Materials der Kalotte 17 ermöglicht es auch, dass diese ohne Werkzeuge vom Betätigungskopf 8 entfernt und wieder auf diesen gesteckt werden kann. In Figur 4 sieht man die mit dem Betätigungskopf 8 verbundene Kalotte 17 in einem Längsschnitt. In dieser Darstellung ist auch sehr deutlich ein Hohlraum 19 zwischen der Oberseite des Betätigungskopfes 8 und der Kalotte 17 zu erkennen. Das durch diesen Hohlraum 19 entstehende Luftpolster unterstützt die dämpfende Wirkung des weichen Materials der Kalotte 17.FIG. 2 also shows a perspective view of the chopper, here, in contrast to the representation of Figure 1, the plunger in its Upper starting position is shown, in which it is held by the return spring 7 becomes. A cap 17 is shown above the actuating head 8, on which four fastening tongues 18 are arranged in one piece. The calotte will open attached to the actuating head 8 by the fastening tongues 18 in corresponding, engage openings provided in the actuating head 8 and therein be held by means of locking lugs (see Figure 4). The calotte consists of a material that is much softer than the material of the actuating head 8, such that the spherical cap 17 is elastic when actuated by hand can deform. The flexibility of the material of the calotte 17 also enables that it is removed from the actuating head 8 and on again without tools this can be inserted. In Figure 4 you can see that with the actuator head 8 connected dome 17 in a longitudinal section. In this illustration, too very clearly a cavity 19 between the top of the actuating head 8 and the calotte 17 to recognize. The resulting through this cavity 19 Air cushions support the damping effect of the soft material of the calotte 17th

In ähnlicher Weise ist im Oberteil ein Einsatzteil 14 befestigt, das in Figur 2 abgenommen dargestellt ist. Auch dieses Einsatzteil ist aus einem weichen, von Hand verformbaren Material hergestellt und weist Befestigungszungen 16 auf, die in entsprechende Öffnungen des Oberteils 1 oder 2 eingreifen und darin mittels Rastnasen festgehalten werden. In Figur 5, die einen vergrösserten Ausschnitt aus Figur 3 zeigt, ist deutlich erkennbar, wie die Befestigungszungen 16 des Einsatzteils 14 in entsprechenden Öffnungen des Oberteils 1 sitzen.In a similar manner, an insert part 14 is fastened in the upper part Figure 2 is shown removed. This insert is also made of a soft, made by hand deformable material and has fastening tongues 16, which engage in corresponding openings of the upper part 1 or 2 and held in place by means of locking lugs. In Figure 5, which is an enlarged Section of Figure 3 shows, can be clearly seen how the fastening tongues 16 of the insert part 14 in corresponding openings in the upper part 1 sit.

In Figur 2 ist ferner deutlich zu sehen, dass nach dem Entfernen des Einsatzteils 14 im Oberteil 1 eine Öffnung 10 frei liegt, durch die das Messer 9 sichtbar ist. Durch diese Öffnung 10 kann das Innere des Hackers mit Wasser ausgespült werden. Falls der Hacker gründlicher gereinigt werden soll, können nach dem Abnehmen des Unterteils 11 die beiden Hälften 1 und 2 des Oberteils wie weiter oben beschrieben auseinander geschwenkt werden, wodurch das Messer 9 dann vollständig frei liegt. Gegenüberliegend dem Einsatzteil 14 ist auf der anderen Seite im Oberteil 2 ein gleiches Einsatzteil 15 vorhanden, wie man dies in Figur 3 sieht. Wird das zweiteilige Oberteil 1, 2 des Hackers mit einer Hand umfasst, geben die Einsatzteile 14 und 15 aufgrund ihrer Elastizität leicht nach, was die Griffigkeit des Hackers wesentlich verbessert und sicher verhindert, dass der Hacker dem Benutzer aus der Hand gleiten kann.In Figure 2 it can also be clearly seen that after removing the Insert part 14 in the upper part 1, an opening 10 is free, through which the knife 9th is visible. Through this opening 10, the inside of the chopper can be filled with water be rinsed out. If the hacker needs to be cleaned more thoroughly, after removing the lower part 11, the two halves 1 and 2 of the upper part be pivoted apart as described above, whereby the Knife 9 is then completely free. Opposite the insert 14 is on the other hand in the upper part 2 there is the same insert part 15 as you can see this in Figure 3. If the two-piece top part 1, 2 of the hacker with a Hand grips, give the insert parts 14 and 15 due to their elasticity slightly after, which significantly improves the grip of the hacker and is safe prevents the hacker from slipping out of the user's hand.

In Figur 3, welche einen Längsschnitt durch das beschriebene Ausführungsbeispiel des Hackers zeigt, ist in der Mitte das Zentralteil 5 sichtbar, welches den eingangs erwähnten Mechanismus zum Drehen des Messers 9 aufnimmt und an welchem die beiden Hälften 1 und 2 des Oberteils durch die Scharnierstifte 3 und 4 gelenkig angeordnet sind. Ferner ist in dieser Figur ein Abstreifer 12 zu erkennen, durch den das Messer 9 hindurch ragt.In Figure 3, which is a longitudinal section through the described embodiment of the hacker, the central part 5 is visible in the middle, which is the mechanism for rotating the knife 9 takes up and on which the two halves 1 and 2 of the upper part by the Hinge pins 3 and 4 are articulated. Also in this figure is a Recognize scraper 12 through which the knife 9 protrudes.

Durch die beschriebene Konstruktion des erfindungsgemässen Hackers ist es in einfacher Weise möglich, das optische Erscheinungsbild des Hackers den Kundenwünschen anzupassen. Beispielsweise können das Oberteil 1, 2 und das Unterteil 11, zu deren Herstellung relativ komplizierte Werkzeuge notwendig sind, in grossen Stückzahlen aus einem transparenten Kunststoff hergestellt werden. Mit diesen Teilen können die Hacker montiert und so bereitgehalten werden. Die aus einem weicheren Material bestehenden Einsatzteile 14 und 15 sowie die Kalotte 17 können in verschiedenen Farben produziert und ebenfalls bereitgehalten werden. Im Bedarfsfall genügen dann wenige Handgriffe, um die vorbereiteten Hacker mit den Einsatzteilen und Kalotten der gewünschten Farbe auszurüsten. Vorteilhaft haben jeweils die Kalotte 17, die Einsatzteile 14 und 15 sowie der Hackgutbecher 13 die selbe Farbe.The described construction of the inventive Hackers can easily change the visual appearance of the Adapt hackers to customer requirements. For example, the top 1, 2 and the lower part 11, for the production of relatively complicated tools are necessary, in large quantities from a transparent plastic getting produced. With these parts, the hackers can be assembled and such be kept ready. The insert parts made of a softer material 14 and 15 as well as the calotte 17 can be produced in different colors and also be kept ready. If necessary, a few are sufficient Handles to the prepared hackers with the insert parts and domes to equip the desired color. The calotte 17, the insert parts 14 and 15 and the wood chip cup 13 the same color.
