Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung für Lebensmittel, die ein Schneidteil und ein schwenkbar gelagertes Betätigungsteil zum Hindurchdrücken von zu zerkleinerndem Gut durch das Schneidteil aufweist, mit einem Deckelteil zum Anbringen an einem Aufnahmebehälter für zerkleinertes Gut, wobei das Deckelteil eine Öffnung mit einem Durchgang für zerkleinertes Gut aufweist, und wobei die Schwenklagerung für das Betätigungsteil oberhalb der Oberseite des Deckelteils angeordnet ist.The invention relates to a food shredder having a cutting part and a pivotally mounted operating part for pressing material to be shredded through the cutting part, with a lid part for attachment to a shredded goods receptacle, the lid part having an opening with a shredded material passage and wherein the pivot bearing for the actuating part is arranged above the upper side of the cover part.

Aus US 7,191,691 B1 ist eine Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung bekannt, die einen kleinen Auffangbehälter für das zerkleinerte Gut aufweist. An dem Vorratsbehälter sind Fortsätze angeordnet, in die ein Schwenkteil mit Pressstempeln verschwenkbar einhängbar ist, um zu zerkleinerndes Gut durch ein auf dem Auffangbehälter aufgesetztes Gittermesser zu drücken. Nachteiligerweise muss bei dieser Anordnung nach dem erfolgten Schneidvorgang das Schneidgut aus dem Auffangbehälter entnommen und in die Schüssel zu den übrigen Zutaten des anzufertigenden Salates gegeben werden. Bei solchen Schneidanordnungen ist insbesondere der Zusatzaufwand zu bemängeln, der dadurch entsteht, dass die gesamte Schneideinrichtung nach dem erfolgten Schneidvorgang zusätzlich zur Schüssel aufwendig gereinigt werden muss. Eine ähnliche Vorrichtung, die dieselben Nachteile aufweist, ist aus FR 747.115 bekannt. Diese Vorrichtung hat den besonderen Nachteil, dass sie einen äußerst kleinen Auffangbehälter aufweist, der häufiger geleert werden muss.Out US Pat. No. 7,191,691 B1 For example, a crushing device is known which has a small collecting container for the comminuted material. At the reservoir extensions are arranged, in which a pivoting part with press dies is pivotally suspended to press to be comminuted Good by a placed on the receptacle grating knife. Disadvantageously, the cutting material must be removed from the container and placed in the bowl to the other ingredients of the salad to be made in this arrangement after the cutting process. In such cutting arrangements in particular the additional effort is to be criticized, which arises because the entire cutting device after the successful cutting in addition to the bowl must be cleaned consuming. A similar device, which has the same disadvantages, is out FR 747.115 known. This device has the particular disadvantage that it has an extremely small collecting container, which must be emptied more frequently.

Aus DE 102009023167 A1 ist eine Vorrichtung zum Schneiden von Nahrungsmitteln, wie Obst und Gemüse, mit einem mehrere Schneiden aufweisenden Schneidteil und einem Betätigungsteil, welche gegeneinander verschwenkbar gelagert sind, bekannt. Zum Schneiden des Schneidgutes wird das Betätigungsteil gegen das Schneidteil gedrückt, wobei das Betätigungsteil einen Stempel aufweist, der das Schneidgut durch das Schneidteil hindurchdrückt. Hierbei tauchen die Schneiden in korrespondierende Vertiefungen des Stempels ein. Die Vorrichtung weist außerdem ein Deckelteil zum Anbringen an einem Aufnahmebehälter für das geschnittene Schneidgut auf, wobei das Deckelteil eine Öffnung aufweist, die einen Durchgang für das geschnittene Schneidgut bildet. Nach einer besonderen Ausgestaltung dieser Vorrichtung ist vorgesehen, dass in der Öffnung die Schwenklagerung des Betätigungsteiles aufgenommen ist oder dass das Betätigungsteil beim Verschwenken im Wesentlichen in die Öffnung des Deckelteils eintaucht.Out DE 102009023167 A1 is a device for cutting food, such as fruits and vegetables, with a multi-cutting cutting part and an actuating part, which are mutually pivotally mounted known. For cutting the material to be cut, the actuating part is pressed against the cutting part, wherein the actuating part has a punch which pushes the material to be cut through the cutting part. Here, the cutting dive into corresponding recesses of the punch. The device also has a Cover part for attachment to a receptacle for the cut material to be cut, wherein the lid part has an opening which forms a passage for the cut material to be cut. According to a particular embodiment of this device it is provided that in the opening, the pivot bearing of the actuating part is received or that the actuating part immersed during pivoting substantially in the opening of the lid part.

Ein besonderer Nachteil dieser Vorrichtung besteht jedoch darin, dass die Öffnung samt Schneidteil und der Pressstempel des Betätigungsteiles zwangsläufig in den Bereich unterhalb des Deckelteils ragen. Dies führt häufig zu einem Verklemmen des Gerätes, weil das gerade im Schneidprozess befindliche Schneidgut - obwohl die Schüssel auf der die Vorrichtung befestigt ist, noch nicht vollständig gefüllt ist - auf dem bereits in der Schüssel befindlichen, bereits geschnittenen Gut aufsetzt, bevor das gerade im Schneidprozess befindliche Schneidgut vollständig durch das Schneidteil gedrückt wurde.A particular disadvantage of this device, however, is that the opening including the cutting part and the pressing die of the actuating part inevitably protrude into the area below the lid part. This often leads to jamming of the device, because the cutting material currently in the cutting process - although the bowl is attached to the device is not completely filled - on the already located in the bowl, already cut good touches before the just in Cutting material located cutting process has been completely pushed through the cutting part.

US D485,328 S offenbart eine Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung für Lebensmittel mit einem schwenkbaren Betätigungsteil und einem in einem Deckel angeordneten Schneidteil. Das Betätigungsteil ist über ein einteiliges Lager an dem Deckel gelagert, wobei das Lager oberhalb der Oberseite des Deckels angeordnet ist. US D485,328 p discloses a food shredder having a pivotable actuating member and a cutting member disposed in a lid. The actuating part is mounted on the lid via a one-piece bearing, wherein the bearing is arranged above the top of the lid.

US 3,554,253 A offenbart ein Gerät mit einem schwenkbaren Betätigungsteil, das über ein einteiliges Lager an dem Gerät gelagert ist. US 3,554,253 A discloses a device with a pivotable actuating part which is mounted on the device via a one-piece bearing.

DE 20 2009 006 804 U1 offenbart eine Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung für Lebensmittel mit einem Betätigungsteil, das über Schwenklager an einem Deckel gelagert ist. Die Schwenklager sind in einem Seitenbereich des Deckels angeordnet. Es ist daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung für Lebensmittel der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, bei der der vorgenannte Nachteil vermieden - oder zumindest gemildert ist. DE 20 2009 006 804 U1 discloses a shredder for food with an actuating part which is mounted on a lid via pivot bearings. The pivot bearings are arranged in a side region of the lid. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a comminution device for food of the type mentioned, in which avoided the aforementioned disadvantage - or at least mitigated.

Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung gelöst, die dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, dass sich sämtliche Bauteile der Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung oberhalb des Deckelteils befinden, so dass der Aufnahmebehälter vollständig mit Schneidgut füllbar ist.The object is achieved by a comminution device, which is characterized in that all components of the comminution device are located above the cover part, so that the receptacle can be completely filled with material to be cut.

Dadurch, dass die Schwenklagerung oberhalb des Deckelteils angeordnet ist, kann der gesamte Bereich unterhalb des Deckelteils vorteilhafter Weise frei von Bauteilen der Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung bleiben.Characterized in that the pivot bearing is arranged above the cover part, the entire area below the cover part advantageously remain free of components of the crushing device.

Die erfindungsgemäße Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung ermöglicht es in vorteilhafter Weise, jeweils den Auffangbehälter, auf den sie aufgesetzt ist vollständig und automatisch mit zerkleinertem Schneidgut zu füllen, wobei ein Verklemmen des Schneidmechanismus weitgehend vermieden ist.The crushing device according to the invention makes it possible in an advantageous manner, in each case to fill the collecting container to which it is placed completely and automatically with crushed material to be cut, with jamming of the cutting mechanism is largely avoided.

Die Erfindung hat darüber hinaus auch den Vorteil, dass auch besonders flache Auffangbehälter verwendet werden können, weil erfindungsgemäß - außer bei ganz außergewöhnlich großem Schneidgut - nicht mehr die Gefahr besteht, dass das Schneidgut den Behälterboden erreicht, bevor es vollständig durch das Schneidteil gedrückt wurde, und sich deswegen verklemmt.The invention also has the additional advantage that it is also possible to use particularly shallow collecting containers, because according to the invention, unless there are exceptionally large items to be cut, there is no longer the risk that the material to be cut reaches the container bottom before it has been completely pushed through the cutting member. and that's why it's stuck.

Im Gegensatz zu der aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Vorrichtung mit in der Öffnung angeordneter Schwenklagerung, ist eine Reinigung nach Gebrauch besonders einfach. Dies insbesondere, weil die Schwenklagerbauteile leicht zugänglich sind.In contrast to the known from the prior art device with arranged in the opening pivot bearing, a cleaning after use is particularly simple. This in particular because the pivot bearing components are easily accessible.

Darüber hinaus muss das Schneidteil nicht wie bei der aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Vorrichtung umständlich tief in die Öffnung eingesetzt werden. Vielmehr ist es erfindungsgemäß ausreichend, wenn das Schneidteil auf dem Deckelteil - vorzugsweise gegen ungewolltes Verschieben gesichert - lediglich aufliegt oder aufsetzbar ist. Hierdurch ist es erfindungsgemäß leicht entnehmbar und/oder austauschbar.In addition, the cutting part does not have to be inserted awkwardly into the opening, as in the case of the device known from the prior art. Rather, it is sufficient according to the invention, when the cutting part on the lid part - preferably secured against accidental displacement - only rests or can be placed. This makes it easily removable and / or interchangeable according to the invention.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist eine Ausführung, bei der das Schneidteil - vorzugsweise abnehmbar und/oder austauschbar - oberhalb der Unterseite des Deckelteils angeordnet ist.Particularly advantageous is an embodiment in which the cutting part - preferably removable and / or interchangeable - is arranged above the underside of the lid part.

Es kann erfindungsgemäß in vorteilhafter Weise auch vorgesehen sein, dass das Schneidteil in einer Schneidebene angeordnet ist und dass das Schwenklager und/oder eine Schwenkachse des Schwenklagers in der Schneidebene angeordnet sind. Diese Ausführung erlaubt es, die Länge der Pressstempel des Betätigungsteils kurz zu halten. Darüber hinaus ist bei dieser Ausführung das zwischen den Scheiden des Schneidteils und den Pressstempeln des Betätigungsteils erforderliche Spiel besonders klein. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Vorrichtung noch weniger zum Verklemmen neigt.It can also be provided according to the invention in an advantageous manner that the cutting part is arranged in a cutting plane and that the pivot bearing and / or a pivot axis of the pivot bearing are arranged in the cutting plane. This design makes it possible to keep the length of the press ram of the operating part short. Moreover, in this embodiment, the clearance required between the sheaths of the cutting member and the press dies of the operating member is particularly small. This has the advantage that the device is even less prone to jamming.

Bei einer besonderen Ausführung der Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung ist das Schneidteil oberhalb der Oberseite des Deckelteiles angeordnet.In a particular embodiment of the comminution device, the cutting part is arranged above the upper side of the cover part.

Die erfindungsgemäße Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung kann auf Grund der besonderen Positionierung der Schwenklagerung vorteilhaft so ausgebildet sein, dass ein Verklemmen von Schneidgut zwischen dem Rand der Öffnung und dem Betätigungsteil weitgehend vermieden ist. Dies insbesondere auch deshalb, weil es erfindungsgemäß nicht mehr erforderlich ist, dass das Betätigungsteil in die Öffnung eintaucht.Due to the special positioning of the pivot bearing, the shredding device according to the invention can advantageously be designed so that jamming of material to be cut between the edge of the opening and the actuating part is largely avoided. This particular because it is no longer necessary according to the invention that the operating part is immersed in the opening.

Auf der Oberseite des Deckelteiles 4 ist ein Rahmen 8 angeordnet, der die Öffnung 6 umgibt. Auf den Außenlängsseiten des Rahmens 8 sind zwei von der Öffnung 6 weg weisende Lagerzapfen 9 angeordnet. Die Lagerzapfen 9 definieren eine gemeinsame Schwenkachse für das Betätigungsteil 3. Diese gemeinsame Schwenkachse befindet sich in derselben gedachten Ebene, in der sich auch das Schneidteil 2 befindet.On the upper side of the cover part 4, a frame 8 is arranged, which surrounds the opening 6. On the outer longitudinal sides of the frame 8 two facing away from the opening 6 bearing pin 9 are arranged. The journals 9 define a common Swivel axis for the actuating part 3. This common pivot axis is located in the same imaginary plane in which the cutting part 2 is located.

Das Betätigungsteil 3 weist zwei Lageraufnahmen 13 für die Lagerzapfen 9, nämlich zwei Lagergabeln 10 auf. Darüber hinaus ist das Betätigungsteil 3 mit einer Vielzahl von Pressstempeln 11 versehen, die so angeordnet sind, dass sie in der Endphase eines Schneidvorganges zwischen die Scheiden des Schneidteils 2 tauchen.The actuating part 3 has two bearing receptacles 13 for the bearing pin 9, namely two storage forks 10. In addition, the operating part 3 is provided with a plurality of press punches 11 which are arranged so that they dive between the sheaths of the cutting part 2 in the final phase of a cutting operation.

Sämtliche Bauteile der Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung 1 befinden sich oberhalb des Deckelteiles 4, so dass der Auffangbehälter 5 vollständig mit Schneidgut gefüllt werden kann, ohne dass es bereits vorher zu Verklemmungen kommt.All components of the crushing device 1 are located above the cover part 4, so that the collecting container 5 can be completely filled with material to be cut, without it already comes to jamming before.

Fig. 2 zeigt die erfindungsgemäße Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung 1 mit gegen das Schneidteil 2 geschwenktem Betätigungsteil 3. Insbesondere dieser Figur ist deutlich entnehmbar, dass sämtliche Bauteile der Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung 1 befinden sich oberhalb des Deckelteiles 4, so dass der Auffangbehälter 5 vollständig mit Schneidgut gefüllt werden kann, ohne dass es bereits vorher zu Verklemmungen kommt. Fig. 2 In particular, this figure can be clearly seen that all components of the crushing device 1 are located above the cover part 4, so that the collecting container 5 can be completely filled with material to be cut without it already before comes to jamming.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine andere Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung 1 mit nach oben geschwenktem Betätigungsteil. Auch bei dieser Ausführung befindet sich die Schwenklagerung 7 oberhalb der Oberseite des Deckelteiles 4. Fig. 3 shows another crushing device 1 with upwardly pivoted operating part. Also in this embodiment, the pivot bearing 7 is above the top of the cover part. 4

Konkret sind auf der Oberseite des Deckelteiles 4 zwei Lagerböcke 12 angeordnet, die jeweils einen Lagerzapfen 9 aufweisen. Dies ist besonders gut in Fig. 5 erkennbar. Die Lagerzapfen 9 sind dazu bestimmt, in Lagergabeln 10 des Betätigungsteils 3 aufgenommen zu werden.Specifically, four bearing blocks 12 are arranged on the upper side of the cover part 4, each having a bearing pin 9. This is especially good in Fig. 5 recognizable. The bearing pins 9 are intended to be received in bearing forks 10 of the actuating part 3.

Fig. 4 zeigt die andere Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung 1 mit gegen das Schneidteil 2 geschwenktem Betätigungsteil 3. Es ist zu erkennen, dass das Deckelteil 4 nach oben konvex gewölbt ausgeführt ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung 1 optisch flachbauend ausgebildet sein kann und trotzdem der Innenraum des Auffangbehälters 5 frei von Bauteilen der Zerkleinerungsvorrichtung 1 bleibt. Fig. 4 shows the other crushing device 1 with against the cutting part 2 swiveled actuating part 3. It can be seen that the cover part 4 is executed convex upward convex. This has the advantage that the crushing device 1 may be formed optically flat construction and still the interior of the collecting container 5 remains free of components of the comminution device 1.

Die Erfindung wurde in Bezug auf eine besondere Ausführungsform beschrieben. Es ist jedoch selbstverständlich, dass Änderungen und Abwandlungen durchgeführt werden können, ohne dabei den Schutzbereich der nachstehenden Ansprüche zu verlassen.The invention has been described with reference to a particular embodiment. However, it is to be understood that changes and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the following claims.
