Description

  The present invention relates to a scale remover that removes scales from the skin of the fish by sliding along the skin of the fish.

  Various scalers for removing fish scales have been proposed. For example, as shown in FIG. 12, a conventional scaler 100 is provided with a holding body 102 at the tip of a grip part 101 held by a person who performs scale work, and a line connecting the head and tail of a fish (head-to-tail). A scale 100 having a blade 103 provided on a holding body 102 in a direction intersecting with a line) is known (Patent Document 1). The blade 103 includes a base portion 104 attached to the holding body 102 and a tip portion 105 that is pressed against the fish and peels off the scales. The tip portion 105 is pressed from a direction substantially perpendicular to the fish. It is what

  Moreover, as another example of the conventional scaler 200, as shown in FIG. 13, a blade part 201 for removing fish scales from a fish skin and a handle part 202 for moving the blade part 201 are provided. The blade portion 201 has a substantially isosceles triangle viewed from the vertical direction, and includes a flat surface 203 that contacts the fish skin and two side inclined surfaces 204 that are continuous with the flat surface 203. A scaler 200 is proposed, which includes a ridge portion 205 that is continuous with side inclined surfaces connected at the top, and a front inclined surface 206 that has an inclination cut from the flat surface 203 toward the ridge portion 205. (Patent Document 2).

  However, the scaler 100 like the above-mentioned patent document 1 presses the front-end | tip part 105 from the direction substantially perpendicular | vertical with respect to a fish, and moves toward a head from a fish tail, Therefore When a scale peels off, it is excessive. There was a problem that force was applied, the removed scales were easily scattered, and the fish meat was easily damaged. Even when the scaler 200 as in Patent Document 2 is used, depending on the type of fish, it may be difficult to remove the scale or the scattering of the scale may not be sufficiently suppressed.

  Therefore, the present invention can remove scales easily regardless of the type of fish without applying excessive force, and can prevent the scales from scattering when removing scales. The purpose is to provide.

The scale remover according to claim 1 includes a scale removing unit that removes scales from the skin of the fish by sliding along the skin of the fish, and a gripping unit that is held by an operator during the operation of removing the scales. The scaler includes a contact surface that comes into contact with the skin of the fish, and an inclined surface in which the tip side in the sliding direction of the scaler forms an acute angle with respect to the contact surface, comprising a said inclined surface has two arranged Ru tip blade portion at intervals so as to face the flat ascending together, the tip blade section, an acute angle between the contact surface and the inclined surface A saw-tooth portion in which a peak portion protruding in the sliding direction and a valley portion recessed in the opposite side of the sliding direction are formed is formed at the boundary that forms the following.

The scaler according to claim 2 , wherein one end of the gripping part is fixed to a side opposite to the tip blade part of the scaler part, and the other end side has an angle with respect to a sliding direction of the scaler part. It is characterized by being provided extending in the forming direction.

According to the scaler of Claim 1, since the front-end | tip blade part formed in the front-end | tip of the sliding direction of a scaler has an acute angle by the contact surface and inclined surface of a scaler, the scaler Is slid from the tail of the fish toward the head, the tip blade portion can enter between the scale and the fish meat with a relatively small force. The tip blade portion has a sawtooth portion in which a peak portion protruding in the sliding direction and a valley portion recessed in the opposite side of the sliding direction are formed at the boundary forming an acute angle between the contact surface and the inclined surface. As a result, the side of the mountain will be in contact with the scale in a slanting direction, and the tip blade will intrude between the scale and the fish with a smaller force, making it easier to remove the scale. In addition, since excessive force is not applied to the scale, scattering of the scale can be suppressed. Moreover, even when the scales are firmly fixed to the fish meat, by pushing or pulling the scaler in a direction substantially perpendicular to the fish caudal direction, that is, a scaler like a saw By pushing and pulling, the portion where the scale is fixed to the fish meat can be cut, and the scale can be easily removed with less force.
Further, it scales up unit, since they have two tip blade portion which are spaced apart so as to face in parallel with each other inclined surface, the head of the fish to a person for the work of removing scales Whether the fish is placed so that it faces the right side or the fish is placed so that the head of the fish faces the left side, the scales of the fish can be easily removed using a scaler. And since the space | interval is opened between the two front-end | tip blade parts of a scale part, when removing scales near a fin, for example, a scale is inserted in the state inserted between two front-end blade parts. Since the fins can be removed, scales near the fins can be removed without the fins getting in the way .

According to the scaler of Claim 2 , since the other end side of a holding part is extended and provided in the direction which makes an angle with respect to the sliding direction of a scale part, the holding part of the person who performs the removal operation of a scale It is possible to prevent the hand holding the sword from being injured by hitting a fish fin or the like.

  Hereinafter, the longest embodiment of the scaler 1 according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the scale remover 1 slides along the fish skin to remove the scale 4 from the fish skin, and the scale 4 is removed during the operation. And a grip portion 3 that the worker grips.

  The grip portion 3 is made of, for example, polypropylene resin, and a base end portion 21 provided on one side opposite to the sliding direction of the scale portion 2 is fixed to one end, and the other end side is a sliding direction of the scale portion 2. Is provided extending in a direction that forms an angle with respect to. That is, when the fish is placed so that the head-to-tail direction of the fish faces the left and right direction of the operator and the scale is adjusted, the other end of the grip portion 3 is provided so as to extend in a direction approaching the operator. . Since the grip portion 3 is provided in this way, the position where the worker grips the grip portion 3 is closer to the worker than the position where the scale portion 2 slides. It is possible to prevent the pointed portion of 4 or fins from hitting the operator's hand and prevent injury to the operator.

  The grip portion 3 is formed in a substantially hexagonal column shape with the center in the longitudinal direction swelled. The shape of the grip portion 3 is not limited to this as long as it is a shape that can be easily gripped by the operator, and may be a cylindrical shape or other longitudinal shape. Further, for example, an anti-slip material such as rubber may be provided. In addition, although the material of the holding | grip part 3 is a polypropylene resin in this embodiment, it is not limited to this, Other resin-made, metal, or wooden materials may be used.

  The scale portion 2 is formed in a substantially U shape when viewed from the sliding direction side, and includes a pair of side portions 23 that are parallel to each other and a front end portion 24 that connects one end of the pair of side portions 23 in the longitudinal direction. A distal end blade portion 22 provided, and a curved proximal end portion 21 that spans the surface opposite to the sliding direction of the pair of side portions 23 and connects the grip portion 3 and the distal end blade portion 22. ing.

  The tip blade portion 22 composed of a pair of side portions 23 and a front end portion 24 includes a contact surface 25 that comes into contact with the skin of the fish, and an inclined surface 26 whose tip side in the sliding direction forms an acute angle with the contact surface 25. Yes. In this embodiment, the angle formed by the contact surface 25 and the inclined surface 26 is about 35 degrees. The angle formed by the contact surface 25 and the inclined surface 26 is preferably in the range of 45 degrees to 20 degrees. When the angle is too large, an excessive force is applied to the scale 4 when the scale portion 2 is slid along the skin of the fish, and when the angle is too small, the tip blade 22 There is a problem that the strength of the steel becomes low. The substantially U-shaped tip blade 22 has an inclined surface 26 facing inward, and the inclined surfaces 26 of the pair of side portions 23 are parallel to each other.

  And the front-end | tip blade part 22 continues on the boundary which makes the acute angle of the contact surface 25 and the inclined surface 26 with the peak part 27 which protrudes in a sliding direction, and the trough part 28 hollow in the reverse side of a sliding direction. A sawtooth portion 29 is formed. The sawtooth portion 29 is formed across the tip in the sliding direction of the tip blade portion 22 from the one side portion 23 through the front end portion 24 to the other side portion 23. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 7, the inclined surface 26 is cut so as to be recessed toward the position where the valley portion 28 is provided, and the edge of the sawtooth portion 29 is formed to be sharp when viewed in cross section. .

  In the operation of removing the fish scale 4, as shown in FIG. 8, one side portion 23 of the tip blade portion 22 of the scaler 1 is arranged in a direction orthogonal to the fish tail direction, In a state where the contact surface 25 provided on the side portion 23 is pressed against the skin of the fish, the scaler 1 is slid along the skin of the fish from the tail side to the head side of the fish. If it does in this way, the front-end | tip blade part 22 will penetrate | invade between the scale 4 and the fish meat 5 of the front-end | tip blade part 22, and the scale 4 can be removed with comparatively small force. Moreover, by removing the scale 4 with a small force, it is possible to effectively suppress the scale 4 from scattering. And since the serrated part 29 is formed in the front-end | tip blade part 22, as shown in FIG. 9, the front-end | tip blade is gradually between the scale 4 and the fish meat 5 from a part of the peak part 27 of the serrated part 29. Since the part 22 invades, the scale 4 can be removed with a smaller force.

  Depending on the type of fish, the scale 4 is firmly fixed to the fish meat 5. In such a case, the scale 1 is pushed in a direction substantially perpendicular to the head-to-tail direction of the fish, or Pull. That is, by pushing and pulling the scaler 1 like a saw, the portion where the scale 4 is fixed to the fish meat 5 can be cut, and the scale 4 can be easily removed with a small force.

  In addition, depending on conditions such as the size of the fish, the work space for removing the scale 4, or the dominant hand of the operator who removes the scale 4, the sliding direction of the scale portion 2 is right when viewed from the operator. Sometimes it is necessary to slide from left to right instead of from left to right. When sliding the scale portion 2 from right to left, as shown in FIG. 8, the contact surface 25 of one side portion 23 of the tip blade portion 22 is brought into contact with the skin of the fish and slid. When the scale portion 2 is slid from left to right, as shown in FIG. 10, the contact surface 25 of the other side portion 23 of the tip blade portion 22 is brought into contact with the skin of the fish and slid. That is, since the pair of side portions 23 are provided on the scale portion 2 with an interval so that the inclined surfaces 26 are parallel to each other, it is assumed that the sliding direction is leftward even if the sliding direction is rightward. In addition, the sawtooth portion 29 can be directed in the sliding direction with the contact surface 25 of any side portion 23 of the tip blade portion 22 being in contact with the skin of the fish.

  Further, since the pair of side portions 23 are provided in parallel with each other at an interval, as shown in FIG. 11, for example, when the work for removing the scale 4 near the fin is performed, the fin is obstructive. Even in such a case, the scale 4 can be removed while the fin is inserted between the pair of side portions 23, and the scale 4 near the fin can be removed without the fin getting in the way. In addition, when removing the scale 4 of a fine part, the scale 4 can be easily removed by making the contact surface 25 of the front-end part 24 of the front-end | tip blade part 22 contact | abut to the skin of a fish, and sliding. That is, the front end portion 24 of the tip blade portion 22 has a sawtooth portion 29 like the pair of side portions 23 and has a shorter length than the pair of side portions 23. Since the contact surface 25 can be brought into contact with a small portion of the scale 4, the remaining of the scale 4 can be further reduced.

  Needless to say, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be appropriately changed without departing from the scope of the idea of the present invention.

  The scaler 1 according to the present invention can be suitably used as a cooking utensil for removing fish scales 4.
