Description

  The present invention relates to a cut former that forms a cut on the surface of an object such as food.

  Conventionally, for example, when forming cuts on the surface (surface layer) of various foods such as aged sausages (winner sausage, frankfurter sausage, bolognese sausage), kamaboko, ham, salami, cheese, vegetables, potatoes, etc. For example, a cut of an arbitrary shape is made with a knife or knife. Specifically, for example, when forming a plurality of cuts on the surface of the aged sausages at home, the depth and position of the cuts vary depending on the knives. It becomes. Moreover, it takes time and troublesome to form a plurality of cuts on the surface of the aged sausages.

In view of this, a sausage breaker has been proposed that has a configuration in which a plurality of grooves that are inclined with respect to the central axis of the cylinder are formed on the inner surface of the cylinder, and a cutting blade is fitted into these grooves. This sausage breaker inserts a sausage into the hollow portion of the cylinder and rotates it with respect to the sausage, so that a plurality of blades are formed on the surface of the sausage at a certain depth by a cutting blade formed on the inner surface of the cylinder. A spiral cut of the book can be made. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1).
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-5138

  However, the sausage breaker described in Patent Document 1 described above includes a step of forming a cylinder, a step of forming a groove on the inner surface of the cylinder, and a step of fitting a cutting blade into the groove formed on the inner surface of the cylinder. Since it is manufactured by performing, the manufacturing process is complicated. In order to make a cut on the surface of the sausage using this sausage breaker, first, insert one end of the sausage into the hollow part of the sausage breaker and bite the cutting edge into the sausage. After putting, it is necessary to perform the work of pushing the sausage breaker toward the other end of the sausage while turning it, and it still requires a certain amount of time to make the cut. In addition, when making a cut, it is necessary to hold the end of the sausage with one hand. For example, when a cut is made in a sausage of a type that has a large amount of oil on the surface, there is a possibility that the hand becomes slippery.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and provides a cut former that can be manufactured by a simple process and can easily and safely form a predetermined cut on the surface of an object. The purpose is to do.

  In order to achieve this object, the present invention has a first case and a second case, and the first case is arranged such that the inner wall of the first case and the inner wall of the second case face each other. When the first case and the second case are arranged to face each other, an inner space capable of accommodating an object is defined by the inner wall of the first case and the inner wall of the second case. A cutting blade is formed on at least one of the inner wall of the case and the inner wall of the second case, and when the first case and the second case are arranged to face each other, the cutting blade is placed in the inner space. It is an object of the present invention to provide a cut former that forms a cut on the outer surface of a contained object.

  The cut former having this configuration places an object on the inner wall of the first case or the inner wall of the second case, and the inner wall of the first case and the inner wall of the second case face each other. Thus, the cutting blade can be pressed against the outer surface of the object accommodated in the case by making the first case and the second case face each other. Therefore, a predetermined cut can be easily and safely formed on the outer surface of the object accommodated in the case.

  In the cut former according to the present invention, a plurality of cutting blades can be formed on each of the inner wall of the first case and the inner wall of the second case.

In the case of this configuration, the plurality of cutting blades formed on the inner wall of the first case are inclined from the edge connected to the second case toward the opposite edge and spaced from each other. The plurality of cutting blades disposed on the inner wall of the second case may be disposed substantially symmetrically with respect to a boundary line with the first case.

  Furthermore, in the cut former according to the present invention, the hinge can be formed integrally with the first case and the second case. By doing in this way, in addition to the said advantage, while being able to reduce the number of parts which comprise a cut former, an assembly process can be simplified and manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  The case can have various shapes depending on the outer shape of the object to be cut on the outer surface. For example, when the first case and the second case are arranged to face each other, the case is substantially omitted. It may have a cylindrical shape. In this case, a cut can be suitably formed on the outer surface of the substantially cylindrical object.

  Further, in the cut former according to the present invention, the cutting blade formed on the inner wall of the first case is formed integrally with the first case and formed on the inner wall of the second case. A cutting blade can also be provided with the structure formed integrally with the said 2nd case. By doing in this way, in addition to the above-mentioned advantages, the number of parts constituting the cut former can be further reduced, the assembling process can be further simplified, and the manufacturing cost can be further reduced.

  The cut former according to the present invention places an object on the inner wall of the first case or the inner wall of the second case so that the inner wall of the first case and the inner wall of the second case face each other. Furthermore, the cutting blade can be pressed against the outer surface of the object accommodated in the case by making the first case and the second case face each other. As a result, it is possible to easily and safely form a predetermined cut on the outer surface of the object accommodated in the case.

Further, in the present embodiment, a description will be given by taking a wiener sausage as an example of an object for which a cut is to be formed on the outer surface.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 7, the cut former 1 according to the present embodiment has a first case 10 and a second case 30 connected to the first case 10 via a hinge 20. Case 2 is provided.

  The case 2 has a hollow, substantially cylindrical shape that is closed in the axial direction, and the first case 10 and the second case 30 are formed by dividing the case 2 into almost two in the axial direction. Yes. That is, the first case 10 and the second case 30 have substantially the same semi-cylindrical dome shape, and side walls 11A and 11B are formed on both sides of the first case 10 in the axial direction. Side walls 31 </ b> A and 31 </ b> B are formed on both axial sides of the second case 30. When the first case 10 and the second case 30 are arranged to face each other so that the inner wall 12 of the first case 10 and the inner wall 32 of the second case 30 face each other, the case 2 is The inner sausage 100 (see FIG. 4) can be accommodated in the internal space defined by the inner wall 12 of the first case 10 and the inner wall 32 of the second case 30. And the case 2 in which this wiener sausage 100 was accommodated has an outer diameter of the extent which can be grasped by a user's hand.

  In addition, the 1st case 10, the hinge 20, and the 2nd case 30 are integrally formed, and it obtained by integrally molding polyethylene in this Embodiment.

As shown particularly in FIG. 3, these cutting blades 13 are directed from the edge 15 on the hinge 20 side to the edge 16 parallel to the edge 15 and away from the hinge 20 (on the side opposite to the edge 15). It is arranged diagonally. These cutting blades 13 are formed integrally with the first case 10 along the curved surface of the inner wall 12 of the first case 10, and the opening side of the first case 10 is the cutting edge 17. . In the present embodiment, the cutting edge 13 is formed with a saw-shaped cutting edge 17.

  A plurality (three in the present embodiment) of cutting edges 33 are formed on the inner wall 32 of the second case 30 at intervals. These cutting blades 33 have the same shape as the cutting blade 13 described above. Reference numeral 37 is a cutting edge having the same shape as the cutting edge 17. Further, these cutting blades 33 are arranged so as to be line-symmetric with respect to the boundary line BL (see FIG. 3) with the first case 10. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the cutting edge 33, like the cutting edge 13, is parallel to the end edge 35 from the end edge 35 on the hinge 20 side and away from the hinge 20 (on the opposite side to the end edge 35). It is disposed obliquely toward the edge 36 and is formed integrally with the second case 30 along the curved surface of the inner wall 32 of the second case 30.

  The position (height) of the cutting edge 17 of the cutting edge 13 and the position (height) of the cutting edge 37 of the cutting edge 33 can be arbitrarily determined according to the depth of the cut to be formed in the wiener sausage 100. Usually, it is preferable to determine the positions of the blade edges 17 and 37 so that even if cuts are formed on both sides of the wiener sausage 100, the wiener sausage 100 is not cut or easily cut from the cut. .

  Next, a specific operation of the cut former 1 according to the present embodiment will be described. First, the cut former 1 is opened (see FIG. 1), and the wiener sausage 100 is placed on the cutting blade 13 formed in the first case 10 (see FIG. 4). Next, the second case 30 is rotated in the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. 4 via the hinge 20 so that the inner wall 32 of the second case 30 and the inner wall 12 of the first case 10 face each other. As described above, the second case 30 is placed on the first case 10 to close the case 2 (see FIG. 2), and the case 2 is gripped. By this operation, the cutting blade 13 formed on the first case 10 and the cutting blade 33 formed on the second case 30 are pressed against the outer surface of the wiener sausage 100 to cut the outer surface of the wiener sausage 100. In this way, three oblique cuts 101 are formed on the outer surface of the wiener sausage 100 (see FIG. 5). The three cuts 101 are similarly formed on the back surface of the wiener sausage 100.

  In addition, when the outer surface of the wiener sausage 100 is provided with a slit 102 in the opposite direction intersecting the sever 101, and the outer surface of the wiener sausage 100 is to be formed with a substantially diagonal lattice (continuous pattern of X: see FIG. 6) The sausage 100 with the cut line 101 is taken out from the case 2, the sausage 100 is turned over (or the left and right in FIG. 5 are reversed), and the sausage 100 is placed on the cutting blade 13 again. The same operation as described above may be performed.

  As explained above, since the first case 10, the second case 30, the hinge 20, and the cutting blades 13 and 33 are integrally formed, the cut former 1 has one component. And it can manufacture without assembling. Therefore, the manufacturing process is simple and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  Also, the wiener sausage 100 is simply placed on the first case 10 (or the second case 30), covered with the second case 30 (or the first case 10) and gripped. A desired cut can be formed on the outer surface of 100. Therefore, the cut can be formed safely and easily.
