Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field This invention relates to a presser member in a cutting device for solid foods such as ice cubes and frozen fruits.

BACKGROUND ART This invention is an improvement on the holding member of a conventionally well-known food cutting device, and the first one is that the holding member according to this invention is attached to the curved food cutting device described above. It is shown in FIG. Therefore, this food cutting device can be used as an example of a conventionally known food cutting device, except for the presser member, and the presser member is shown in FIGS. 6 to 9.
Since these are shown in the figure, they will be explained.

Reference numeral 1 designates a machine base, on one side of which a support frame 2 is established, an upper frame 3 is provided extending laterally from the upper part of the machine base, an electric motor 5 is accommodated in the upper part of the support frame 2, and the frames 2 and 3 A head cover 4 is provided to cover the head.

A main shaft 7 having a worm formed on the outer periphery is rotatably installed on a support member 10 provided on the upper frame 3, and a pulley 6 is slidably fitted onto the upper part of the main shaft 7 using a key or the like. A belt 9 is stretched between the pulley 6 and a pulley 8 attached to the motor shaft.

A presser member 12 is attached to the lower end of the main shaft 7,
A cutting plate 13 is arranged below it, and a cutting blade 11 is detachably attached to this plate 13. A worm gear 15 that meshes with the worm of the main shaft 7 is fixed to a rotating shaft 16 that is pivotally supported by a support member 14 provided on the upper frame 3. Fixed. A support member 18 is provided on the upper frame 3, and a screw shaft 2 is inserted into a screw hole provided laterally in the support member 18 as shown in FIG.
A small diameter support shaft 21 of the brake shoe 19 is fitted into a blind hole provided at the tip of the screw shaft 20, and a coil spring 22 wound around the outer periphery of this support shaft 21 causes the shoe 19 to be screwed together. is adapted to constantly press against the brake wheel 17. 23 is a main switch for driving the motor 5 provided on the head cover 4; 25 is a lower cover that is located between the upper frame 3 and the cutting plate 13 and surrounds the cutting area; this cover 25 is connected to the mounting seat 26; Support frame 2
This rear half 25b is attached to the rear half 25b.
27 is a manual handle fixed to the protruding end of the rotary shaft 16; shows.

In the conventional presser member 41 shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, the plate-like main body 42 is made of plastic, and a needle 43 is integrally cast into the main body 42 when the main body 42 is molded. Reference numeral 44 indicates a lid that is fitted onto the main body 42, and has a screw hole 46 in the center into which the threaded portion 45 at the lower end of the main shaft 7 is screwed, and this lid 44 is screwed into the screw hole 48 of the main body 42. It is fixed to the main body 42 by a set screw 47.

Problems to be solved by the invention By the way, such a presser member 41 is
is integrally attached to the main body 42, so that it is easy to remove food particles etc. that adhere to the corner portion of the pricking needle 43 that contacts the back surface of the main body 42 and between the lid 44 and the main body 42. The drawback was that it was difficult and unsanitary.

The purpose of this invention is to make it possible to easily remove food particles and the like that adhere to the corners of the joint between the plate-like body and the pricking needle in the presser member and between the lid body and the plate-like body with a simple operation. To provide a presser member for a food cutting device that does not cause hygiene problems.

Means for Solving the Problems The above object is to provide a plate-like body having a screw hole in the center of the presser member, a needle that is removably inserted into the through-hole provided in the plate-like body, and a needle that is removably inserted into the through hole provided in the plate-like body. The needle is inserted into the hole in the plate-like body, and with the lid covered, the threaded part at the lower end of the rotating main shaft is inserted through the hole in the lid. By penetrating and screwing into the screw hole of the plate-like body,
This is achieved by attaching it to the rotating main shaft.

Function When you want to clean the presser member as described above, remove the threaded part of the rotating main shaft from the screw hole of the plate-like main body, and the entire presser member will separate from the rotating main shaft, and then remove the lid body from the plate. Remove it from the body,
Furthermore, the pricking needle can be removed from the plate-like main body and cleaned by washing each of these three parts, after which it is attached to the rotating main shaft again by performing the reverse operation.

Embodiment Next, an embodiment of this invention shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 will be described.

This presser member 12 consists of a plate-like main body 28, a plurality of needles 29, and a lid 31, and the main body 28
Although the lid body 31 is made of plastic like the main body 42 of the conventional presser member 41, it may be made of other materials. The main body 28 is provided with a small hole 32 for inserting the needle 29 and a central screw hole 33 for screwing the lower end screw portion 30 of the main shaft 7.
1 is provided with a through hole 34 through which the threaded portion 30 of the main shaft 7 is inserted. When assembling such a presser member 12, the needle 29 is inserted into the small hole 32 of the main body 28, the lid 31 is fitted on the upper surface of the needle 29, and the main shaft 7 is assembled.
Assemble by screwing the threaded part 30 into the screw hole 33,
When disassembling, perform the opposite operation. Even if the detailed structure of the food cutting device to be attached differs from that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it is sufficient that it has the same structure. Also shown in FIG. 6 is a different embodiment of the plate-like body 28', which is made of aluminum and has a plastic ring secured around its lower surface. When such a plate-shaped main body 28' was used, it was found that partial melting of the surface of the ice block pressed against the lower surface during use was prevented.

Effects of the invention This invention is as described above, and when you want to clean each part of the presser member, you can remove the plate-shaped body from the rotating main shaft and clean the three parts: the plate-shaped body, the lid body, and the needle. Since they can be easily disassembled, they can be washed separately, which is not only sanitary, but also extremely easy to disassemble and assemble.
