Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Schneiden von Lebensmitteln, insbesondere Obst, Gemüse oder dergleichen, enthaltend einen Hauptkörper, bei dem zwischen zwei Längsrändern mindestens eine Platte und mindestens ein Messer angeordnet ist, dessen Schneidkante sich in einem Abstand von dieser Platte befindet, und mit einem Halter zur Aufnahme des zu schneidenden Lebensmittels.The invention relates to a device for cutting food, in particular fruit, vegetables or the like, containing a main body, in which at least one plate and at least between two longitudinal edges a knife is arranged, the cutting edge of which is at a distance from this plate, and with a holder to hold the cutting food.

Derartige Vorrichtungen sind aus dem Stand der Technik, beispielsweise aus den Dokumenten EP 412 488 A2 und EP 412 489 A2 bekannt. Damit das Schneidgut leicht in dünne Scheiben geschnitten werden kann, haben solche Vorrichtungen sehr scharfe Messer. Dies wiederum stellt natürlich für den Benutzer eine Verletzungsgefahr dar. Um der Verletzungsgefahr während des Schneidens von Obst, Gemüse oder dergleichen zu begegnen, wurden Halter für das Schneidgut geschaffen. Die Veröffentlichung EP 196 550 A1 zeigt einen solchen Halter, der zuverlässig verhindert, dass die das Schneidgut führende Hand mit dem Messer in Berührung kommt. Der Halter wird mit einem darin aufgenommenen Stück eines Lebensmittels in Längsrichtung der Vorrichtung über das Messer geführt, um dieses Lebensmittel zu zerkleinern. Wie insbesondere die Figur 2 der zuletzt genannten Veröffentlichung zeigt, ist der Halter selbst nicht mit der Vorrichtung verbunden und somit gegenüber dieser nicht geführt. Es kann somit ohne weiteres vorkommen, dass der Halter in unerwünschter Weise seitlich von der Vorrichtung abrutscht.Such devices are from the prior art, for example known from documents EP 412 488 A2 and EP 412 489 A2. In order to the material to be cut can be easily cut into thin slices Devices very sharp knives. This, of course, represents for the User represents a risk of injury. To reduce the risk of injury during the To counter cutting fruit, vegetables or the like have become keepers created for the material to be cut. The publication EP 196 550 A1 shows one such a holder, which reliably prevents the cutting material from leading Hand comes into contact with the knife. The holder comes with one in it picked up piece of food in the longitudinal direction of the device passed over the knife to chop this food. How in particular Figure 2 of the latter publication shows the holder itself not connected to the device and thus not compared to it guided. It can easily happen that the holder is undesirable Way slips sideways from the device.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der genannten Art vorzuschlagen, bei welcher der Halter nicht seitlich von der Vorrichtung abrutschen kann. Diese Aufgabe wird gemäss der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, dass am Halter ein Führungsteil angeordnet ist, welcher mit einem der Seitenränder längs verschiebbar verbindbar ist.Based on this prior art, the invention lies Task to propose a device of the type mentioned, in which the holder cannot slide off the side of the device. This task is solved according to the invention in that a guide part on the holder is arranged, which can be connected to one of the side edges so as to be longitudinally displaceable is.

Vorzugsweise ist der Führungsteil über ein Scharnier schwenkbar mit dem Halter verbunden, wodurch auch Stücke geschnitten werden können, die nicht in das Innere des Halters passen. Zudem erlaubt das Scharnier, den Halter hochzuschwenken, um Reste des geschnittenen Lebensmittels zu entfernen. Die Schwenkachse ist dabei vorzugsweise parallel zu den Längsrändern angeordnet.The guide part is preferably pivotable with a hinge connected to the holder, whereby pieces can also be cut do not fit inside the holder. The hinge also allows the holder swing up to remove remnants of the cut food. The pivot axis is preferably parallel to the longitudinal edges arranged.

Wie insbesondere die Figuren 1 und 2 zeigen, enthält die Vorrichtung einen Hauptkörper 1 mit seitlichen Längsrändern 2 und 3, der vorzugsweise einstückig aus einem Kunststoff durch Spritzgiessen hergestellt ist. Füsse 4 und 5 erlauben es, die Vorrichtung auf einer ebenen Unterlage derart aufzustellen, dass ein flaches Behältnis, beispielsweise ein Teller, zur Aufnahme des Schnittguts darunter gestellt werden kann. Die Füsse 4, 5 erlauben es aber auch, die Vorrichtung auf den Rand eines grösseren Behältnisses, beispielsweise einer Schüssel, aufzusetzen. Das mit der Vorrichtung zu schneidende Lebensmittel wird auf eine untere Platte 7 gesetzt und gegen die Schneide 9 eines Messers 8 bewegt. Das Messer 8 fluchtet mit einer oberen Platte 6. Beim Schneiden wird vom Lebensmittel eine Scheibe abgetrennt, deren Dicke der Höhendifferenz zwischen der unteren Platte 7 und der oberen Platte 6 entspricht. Zum Verändern der Schnittdicke können Einsätze (nicht dargestellt) vorgesehen sein, die in den Figuren 1 und 2 von rechts nach links zwischen die Seitenränder 2, 3 geschoben werden und dann über der unteren Platte 7 liegen. As particularly shown in Figures 1 and 2, the device contains a main body 1 with lateral longitudinal edges 2 and 3, which is preferably is made in one piece from a plastic by injection molding. Feet 4 and 5 allow the device to be set up on a flat surface in such a way that a flat container, for example a plate, to hold the Cuttings can be placed under it. Feet 4, 5 allow it also, the device on the edge of a larger container, for example a bowl to put on. The one to be cut with the device Food is placed on a lower plate 7 and against the cutting edge 9 a knife 8 moves. The knife 8 is aligned with an upper plate 6. When Cutting a slice from the food, the thickness of which is Height difference between the lower plate 7 and the upper plate 6 corresponds. Inserts (not shown) can be used to change the section thickness be provided, which in Figures 1 and 2 from right to left between the Side edges 2, 3 are pushed and then lie over the lower plate 7.

Ein Halter 10 für die zu schneidenden Lebensmittel besteht aus einer Fussplatte 11, von der eine hohle Aufnahme 12 nach oben abragt. Diese ist vorzugsweise nicht rund, sondern beispielsweise vierkantig mit abgerundeten Ecken ausgebildet, damit sich das zu schneidende Gut in ihr nicht drehen kann. Das Lebensmittel wird in die Aufnahme gegeben und mit einem Stössel 13 angedrückt. Auf der Unterseite der Fussplatte 11 wie auch an der Unterseite des Stössels 13 sind Spitzen 19 beziehungsweise 20 vorgesehen, die verhindern, dass der Halter 10 vom zu schneidenden Lebensmittel rutscht. An einer Seite weist der Halter 10 einen Führungsteil 14 auf, mit dem er an einem der Seitenränder 2 oder 3 geführt werden kann. Figur 3 zeigt besonders deutlich, wie der Führungsteil 14 den in der Figur linken Seitenrand 2 übergreift. Ein oberer Stützrand 16 und eine untere Nase 17 sorgen für eine formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen dem Seitenrand 2 und dem Führungsteil 14, welche Verbindung ein seitliches Abgleiten des Halters 10 sicher verhindert, ohne dessen Längsbewegung zu behindern. Auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite, im Bereich des Seitenrandes 3, stützt sich der Halter 10 auf einem an der Fussplatte 11 angeformten Stützrand 18 ab.A holder 10 for the food to be cut consists of a Base plate 11, from which a hollow receptacle 12 protrudes upwards. This is preferably not round, but for example square with rounded Corners formed so that the material to be cut cannot rotate in it. The food is placed in the receptacle and pressed on with a pestle 13. On the underside of the foot plate 11 as well as on the underside of the Tappet 13 have tips 19 and 20, respectively, which prevent that the holder 10 slips from the food to be cut. On one side the holder 10 has a guide part 14, with which it on one of the side edges 2 or 3 can be performed. Figure 3 shows particularly clearly how the Guide part 14 overlaps the left side edge 2 in the figure. An upper one Supporting edge 16 and a lower nose 17 ensure a positive connection between the side edge 2 and the guide part 14, which connection a lateral sliding of the holder 10 is reliably prevented without its longitudinal movement to hinder. On the opposite side, in the area of the Side edge 3, the holder 10 is supported on a molded on the base plate 11 Support edge 18 from.

Die Fussplatte 11 und der Führungsteil 14 sind über ein Scharnier 15 gelenkig miteinander verbunden, so dass der Halter 10 gegenüber dem Hauptkörper 1 verschwenkt werden kann, wie dies insbesondere die Figuren 2 und 4 zeigen. Diese Verschwenkbarkeit erfüllt insbesondere die folgenden zwei Zwecke. Einerseits können nach dem Schneiden an den Spitzen 18, 19 haftende Reste des Lebensmittels mühelos entfernt werden, indem der Halter wie dargestellt hochgeschwenkt wird. Andererseits erlaubt es die Schwenkbarkeit des Halters 10 auch, Stücke zu schneiden, die so gross sind, dass sie nicht in die Aufnahme 12 passen. Ein solches Stück, beispielsweise eine Karotte oder eine Kartoffel, wird dann einfach bei hochgeschwenktem Halter auf die untere Platte 7 gelegt und dann wird der Halter auf das Stück geschwenkt und dieses mit dem Halter über das Messer 8 bewegt.The base plate 11 and the guide part 14 are via a hinge 15 hinged together so that the holder 10 is opposite the main body 1 can be pivoted, as is particularly the case in FIGS. 2 and 4 demonstrate. This pivotability fulfills the following two purposes in particular. On the one hand, after cutting can stick to the tips 18, 19 Leftovers of the food can be easily removed by using the holder as shown is swung up. On the other hand, it allows the pivoting of the Holders 10 also to cut pieces that are so big that they don't fit into the Fit 12. Such a piece, for example a carrot or one Potato, is then simply placed on the lower plate with the holder swung up 7 placed and then the holder is pivoted onto the piece and this with the holder moved over the knife 8.

Durch die Tatsache, dass die Seitenränder 2, 3 symmetrisch ausgebildet sind, kann der Führungsteil 14 wahlweise auf den vom Benutzer aus gesehen linken oder rechten Seitenrand gesetzt werden, beispielsweise je nachdem, ob der Benutzer Rechtshänder oder Linkshänder ist. Der Halter 10 wird dazu einfach in Längsrichtung über das Ende des betreffenden Seitenrandes hinaus ausgefahren und beim anderen Seitenrand wieder von einem Ende her aufgeschoben.Due to the fact that the side edges 2, 3 are formed symmetrically are, the guide part 14 can optionally seen from the user left or right margin, for example depending on whether the user is right-handed or left-handed. The holder 10 will simply in the longitudinal direction over the end of the relevant page edge extended out and at the other side again from one end postponed.
