Description

Nut Caster

The present invention relates to an apparatus called nuts caster designed to shell any type of dried fruit regardless of its size and hardness.

Its manufacture is planned in magnesium, aluminum and plastic

Background of the invention

They have been designed and marketed different Nutcracker types or nut casters. Some demand make great strength to be able to break the shells of the fruits dry others need the use of both hands to be able to be used; the vast majority, by exerting pressure on the dried fruit peel, break it and it jumps through the air without control.

This device is intended to improve these aspects explained and offer ergonomics and design to this type of commonly used devices.

Description of the invention

This nut caster consists of two levers (6, 8 and 9) joined together by a rivet (4). In the bottom of the device there are two planes (5) to support the cassette horizontally in its four positions horizontal possible.

The internal housing of nuts (1) it is shaved on the bottom (3) and on the top three plateaus appear (2) which are the ones that exert the force on the  dried fruit and split it.

All the edges of the shell are rounded (7) to avoid possible user injuries, not due insert fingers or other body parts into the housing of the nuts.

The caster handles (6, 8 and 9) are Ergonomically designed to fit any hand of any user and can be used with total comfort exerting minimal force.

Description of the figures

For the best understanding of how much is left described herein, some figures are attached in the which presents the nut caster from different views.

Figure 1 shows the two parts differentiated from the nut caster. The front (1), of oval shape, which is where the nuts and the part are housed rear (8), consisting of two handles adapted to the hand of the Username.

In figure 2 we appreciate the interior of the Nut housing, divided into two halves. The part bottom (3), formed by three grooved cavities that help the holding of the dried fruit and the upper part (2), formed by three plateaus, also grooved, which are the ones that exert pressure on the dried fruit and break it.

Figure 3 shows the two planes that disposes the cassette (5), to be able to leave it in horizontal position. It can also be seen that the two levers of which the apparatus (9), are joined by a rivet (4).

And in figure 4, they can be seen in a way clear, the two handles of the shell (6). The outer part of Nut housing is rounded (7).

Claims (5)
