Definitions
- the present invention relates to a peeling device, in particular for vegetables, fruit and potatoes. Furthermore, the invention relates to a kitchen appliance with such a peeling device.
- the object of the invention is to offer a further alternative to known peeling knives or peeling devices.
- the peeling device should enable peeling that is as simple and quick as possible.
- the object is achieved by a peeling device with the features of claim 1 and a kitchen appliance with the features of claim 3.
- the peeling device is suitable for use as an insert in a kitchen appliance. This enables the user to peel potatoes or certain types of vegetables, but also fruit in the food processor.
- the peeling device is placed on drive means of the food processor, for example cutting means or blender blade.
- the cutting means transmits the torque via at least one adaptation interface or contact surface to the side of the peeling device that faces the cutting means when in use.
- the peeling device preferably has a central opening with which it can be placed on a free end of a drive shaft of the kitchen appliance.
- the central opening is preferably formed in the middle of the peeling device, but can also be formed at other locations.
- the cutting tools are also mounted on this drive shaft and are driven by it.
- the opening is closed with a cup-shaped cover so that the free end of the drive shaft does not come into contact with the product to be peeled contact can come.
- a cylindrical section or edge can be provided in the area of the opening on the side of the product to be peeled, which accommodates or surrounds the free area of the drive shaft, so that it does not protrude over the section and only a free front surface of the drive shaft with the Good to be peeled can come into contact.
- the aforementioned cylindrical section (also cylinder section) or edge is also used for manual positioning and removal of the peeling device in the pot of the kitchen appliance by a user.
- the peeling device is supported on the mixing knife in the area of the adaptation interface.
- the peeling device has a frame, preferably made of plastic, and a grater.
- the grater can be made of various suitable materials, preferably sheet metal, plastic or ceramic.
- Frame and grater can form a one-piece or multi-piece component.
- both components frame, grater
- a one-piece (one-piece) formation can be advantageous.
- Frame and grater can be made of one and the same plastic.
- the frame or the grater can - if made of plastic - be manufactured by injection molding. The same applies if the frame and grater form a one-piece plastic component.
- the grater is preferably interchangeable and can be selected to match the particular product to be peeled.
- the grater When inserted, the grater is connected to the frame in a rotationally fixed manner.
- the interchangeable (detachable) attachment of the grater to the frame can take place via suitable attachment means, for example by one or more snap-in connections, with complementary snap-in means preferably being arranged on the frame and the grater in each case.
- the interchangeability of the grater makes it easier to clean.
- the grater - which can be designed in the manner of a friction disk - can in a further embodiment be encapsulated or acted upon initially at its edge with plastic (whereby the friction disk as such is made of metal in this embodiment).
- the grater comprises grating means arranged on a grating side of the grater, preferably in the form of sharp edges formed at the edge of openings formed in the grater.
- the openings can be through-openings (holes), which can be arranged in a hole pattern.
- the grater can therefore have a large number of openings (including sharp edges), so-called grating openings.
- the openings can have any desired cross-sectional geometries, for example circular, oval, elliptical, polygonal (in particular quadrilateral, square, triangular), or in the manner of a parallelogram. Starting from the friction side, the openings are turned up, ie raised in relation to a friction side surface. The protuberances produced in this way can provide the friction means.
- the friction means can be designed in the form of structural elements that rise or protrude in relation to the surface of the grater (or friction disk) that faces the material to be peeled.
- the grater can therefore be a grating disc with a structured surface, the structured surface being formed by structural elements.
- the structural elements can have sharp edges. In this configuration, the grater does not necessarily have to have openings.
- the mentioned cutting means transmit torque to the peeling device, so that it starts rotating. This removes the skin from the food on the grater.
- the peeling device can have a further coupling to be placed on a peeling blade arranged in the pot of the kitchen appliance, with the peeling blade transmitting forces/torques to the peeling device.
- the peeling device can also have a coupling to an arrangement of a peeling blade and forces/torques can be transmitted to it.
- the peeling device has a diameter adapted to the pot of the electrical kitchen appliance.
- the peeling device is circular and has a diameter that allows an outer edge of the peeling device to contact an inner wall of the pot when inserted.
- the peeling device has an elevation on its side facing the product to be peeled, as a result of which the product moves during the peeling process, in particular is rotated so that other parts of the material come into contact with the grater continuously.
- the material to be peeled is whirled up by the elevations and the rotation of the peeling device, which means that all parts of the material to be peeled can be peeled.
- the "elevation" can be formed in the manner of a rib, which preferably extends radially from the central opening to the outer edge of the peeling device (or to the frame).
- the peeling device can have several "elevations", in particular two or three or another number of surveys. Even with a plurality of elevations, these can be designed in the manner of a rib.
- the elevations (ribs) can be a part of the peeling device, which may be designed in one piece.
- the elevations (ribs) can also be an integral part of the grater.
- the elevations (ribs) can be fastened to the peeling device or grater.
- the elevations (ribs) can also be formed onto the frame.
- the grated skins are transported through openings in the grater into an area of the container arranged below the peeling device and settle to the bottom of the container during the peeling due to the addition of water.
- the peeling device is compatible with the Thermomix® 5, 6 and 31 kitchen appliances.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 show the peeling device 20 together with a kitchen appliance 30 with which it can be used. Also recognizable are cutting means 40, which are arranged inside a pot 50 in the bottom area 100 of the kitchen appliance 30.
- FIGS. 3 to 5 show the peeling device 20 in different views (FIG. 3 perspectively from above, FIG. 4 perspectively from below, FIG. 5 in side view).
- FIGS. 3 and 4 show a grater 101 (grating disk) which is arranged in a substantially circular frame 102 .
- a central opening 103 for receiving the free end 104 of the drive shaft shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 can also be seen.
- the central opening 103 is surrounded on a grating side 106 (facing the product to be peeled during operation) of the grater 101, i.e. the side facing the product to be peeled, by a cylinder section 107 which extends through the central opening 103 free end 104 of the drive shaft surrounds when plugged in.
- the cylinder section 107 is also used for manual positioning and removal of the peeling device 20 in the pot 50 of the kitchen appliance 30.
- an elevation 110 in the form of a rib that protrudes from a base surface of the grater can be seen, which rotates or moves the product to be peeled during the rotation of the peeling device 20 .
- the elevation extends radially outwards from the central opening 103 to the edge 102.
- the grater 101 has openings 120 through which pieces of peel can get into the area below the peeling device 20 .
- the peeling device 20 can be seen from below in FIG.
- the centrally arranged receptacle 120 for the free end 104 of the drive shaft and the contact surfaces 150 for the radially extending drive means or cutting means 40 (mixing knife) are shown.
- the cutting means 40 each extend between two contact surfaces 150 so that operation in both directions of rotation is possible.
- the hole pattern of the grater 101 resulting from the openings 120 shown in the figures is only to be understood as an example and can also be designed differently. Sharp edges may be formed at the edges of the openings 120 that provide means of friction.
