Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] This invention relates to an improvement in a cooking device for cooking food by rotating a grating cutter or other cooking blade detachably attached thereto. .

[Prior Art] Conventionally, as a cooking device 1, as shown in FIG.
A grated cutter 4 is removably attached to a drive shaft 3 that protrudes into the container 2 through the bottom surface of the container 2 placed on the container 2 and is rotated by a motor (not shown) in the main body la. The blade 4 formed on the surface of the grated cutter 4
It is known that the food to be cooked in the container 2 is brought into contact with the food to be cooked. This cooking device 1 can perform cooking other than grating by attaching a cooking blade such as a slicing blade (not shown) other than the grated cutter 4 to the drive shaft 3.

A holding portion 4b that protrudes upward is formed in the center of the grated cutter 4 so that it can be easily attached and detached when replacing the cooking blade.

By the way, because of the holding part 4a protruding from the center of the grated cutter 4, the food to be cooked must be diced into 2 to 3 cm cubes that fit within the approximate radius of the grated cutter 4. I had to.

For this reason, in order to make grated food, prepare the food to be cooked for 2 to 20 minutes.
It had to be cut into 3cm cubes, which was time-consuming.

Therefore, it is conceivable to form the surface of the grated cutter 4 into a flat surface without protrusions such as the holding portion 4a so that the food can be cooked in its large size without dicing the food.

As a device having the above structure, there is a food processing device 5 shown in FIG. It has a disk 7, and a rotary grating blade 8 is attached to the rotating disk 7 approximately in the center of the surface so that the surface becomes a flat surface. By bringing this rotary grater blade 8 into contact with the food to be cooked located on the rotating disc 7, the food to be cooked can be grated by the blade 8a formed on the surface of the rotary grater blade 8 (
(Refer to Utility Model Publication No. 59-26947).

In this way, by making the surface of the cooking device 1 flat like the food processing device 5, it is possible to use other cooking blades in place of the grating cutter 4, and it is also possible to dice the food to be cooked. It is possible to create a cooker that can be used for cooking without changing its size.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the case of such a cooking device, it is necessary to have both the grating cutter 4 and other cooking blades, but it is necessary to have the rotary disk 7 and the engagement shaft portion 7a integrally formed. For example, since the grated cutter 4 cannot be stored in the cooking appliance with other cooking blades attached at the same time, it is troublesome to store the grated cutter 4.

This invention was made in view of the above-mentioned needs, and its purpose is to be able to cook large pieces of food without having to cut it into small pieces in advance, and also to be able to cook food while other cooking blades are attached. To provide a cooking device in which a grated cutter can be stored in the cooking device.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a container that penetrates the bottom surface of a container placed on a main body, projects into the container, and is rotated by a motor within the main body. A cooking device that cooks food in the container by rotating a grated cutter or other cooking blade removably attached to a drive shaft, wherein the grated cutter has a grated part body having a grated blade on its surface. and a rotary table formed on the upper part of the shaft portion to be attached to the drive shaft, on which the grating portion body is attached and a fitting portion is formed so that the surface of the grating portion body and the surface having the grating blade are substantially flush with each other. It is characterized by having

[Function] The cooking device configured as described above enables selective use of the grated cutter or other cooking blades, and when the grated cutter is used, the food to be cooked can be cooked in large pieces without being diced. Also, with other cooking blades attached,
A grated cutter disassembled into a grated part main body and a rotary table can be stored in the cooking device.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the cooking appliance according to the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the cooking device 10 has a drive shaft 13 that penetrates the bottom surface of a container 12 placed on a main body 11 and projects into the container 12. It is rotated by a motor (not shown) inside. The container 12 has a handle 12a formed on the side surface and a lid 1 that closes the upper opening.
4, and the lid body 14 is formed with a switch portion 14a that connects and disconnects the contact point 11a formed on the main body 11. A grating cutter 15 that is rotated by the rotation of the drive shaft 13 is detachably attached to the upper part of the drive shaft 13. This mounting structure is the same as that conventionally known, and detailed explanation will be omitted. In addition, the upper part 14 of the lid body 14
b is formed with a recess 16 having an opening 16b extending through the bottom wall 16a and along the bottom M 16a. This recess 1
Reference numeral 6 functions as an oil inlet for injecting edible oil such as mayonnaise used when cooking food into the container 12.

This cooking device 10 has a recess 1 which is the lowest part of the upper back surface of the lid body 14 from the upper surface of the grated cutter 15 through the side wall of the container 12.
The height H of the space above the cutter 15 that reaches the back surface 16c of the bottom wall of the cutter 6 is formed to be approximately the same length as the radius of the grating cutter 15 or longer.

As shown in FIG. 2, the grating cutter 15 has a grating part body 20 and a rotary table 30 that is attached to the grating part body 20 and is integrated with the grating part body 20 ((a)
reference),.

The grater main body 20 is formed into a disk shape with grater blades 21 arranged radially on a front surface 20a, and a through hole 22 passing through the front and back surfaces is formed in the center. A flange 2 forming a periphery of the through hole 22 is provided on the back surface 2Ob side.
2a is provided protrudingly. Two locking protrusions 23 are formed at the upper part of the inner circumferential surface 22b of the through hole 22 and are equally spaced apart. The locking convex portion 23 has a cross-shaped planar shape, and an upper end 23a is flush with the surface 20m, and the inner circumferential surface 22
It is formed in relief protruding from a ((b)
reference).

The rotary table 30 has a cylindrical shaft portion 31 into which the drive shaft 13 is inserted and mounted, and a fitting portion 32 formed on the upper portion of the shaft portion 31. The fitting portion 32 is formed into a disk shape having the same outer diameter as the inner diameter of the through hole 22, and can close the through hole 22 by fitting into the through hole 22.

In addition, a grating blade 21 arranged in a cross shape on the surface 32a
In addition, a shaft portion 31 is provided protruding from the center portion on the back surface 32b side.

In the fitting portion 32, two recesses 34 having a rectangular planar shape and having an opening 33 on the outer circumferential side surface 32e are formed at two equally spaced locations. This recess 34 functions as a finger rest when taking out the fitting part 32. Both sides of the opening 33 are the same as the opening 3 except for the upper end of the opening 33 of the fitting part 32.
3 is cut off to enlarge the diameter. Therefore, on both sides of the opening 33, a slope 33a facing inward and downward and a vertical surface 33b below the slope 33a are formed ((C)
reference).

When the locking convex portion 23 enters below this slope 33a, the locking convex portion 23 becomes in a locked state as shown in FIG. The distance a from the surface 32a to the lower part of the slope 33a into which the locking projection 23 enters is the same as the distance from the surface 20m to the upper end 23a of the stop projection 23.

For this reason, the fitting part 32 is fitted into the through hole 22 from the back surface 20b side of the grated part main body 20, and the rotary table 30 is attached, and the rotary table 30 is rotated manually or by the operation of the cooking device 10 and engaged. By inserting the convex portion 23 below the slope 33a, the surface 20a of the grated portion main body 20 and the grated blade 21
The surface 32a of the fitting portion 32 can be made substantially flush with the surface 32a of the fitting portion 32 (see FIG. 3).

Next, an example of the operation of the cooking device with the above configuration will be explained.

First, a case will be described in which the radish R to be cooked is cut into large rings without being diced, and the outer diameter is approximately the same as the outer diameter of the grated portion main body 20.

Grate this radish R with a grated cutter 1 as shown in Figure 4.
5 Place it on top. The radish R has an outer diameter that fits within the outer diameter of the grated part main body 20, and the surface 20a of the grated part main body 20 and the surface 32a of the fitting part 32 are substantially flush with each other. The entire lower surface side of R is the grated cutter 15
It comes into contact with the grating blades 21 formed mutually over the entire surface area (see (a)).

The lid 14 is pressed and the grated cutter 15 is rotated by driving the motor. By the rotation of the grated cutter 15,
The radish R in the container 12 is brought down by the grater blade 21 and rotated around the drive shaft 13 while coming into contact with the inner surface of the container 12 or the lid 14 (see (b)). For this reason, the lower surface of the radish R is grated evenly, and in particular, by the grating blade 21 provided on the surface 32m of the fitting part 32, the grating blade 21 is only applied to the grated part main body 20.
Compared to the case with 1, there is no part that is not grated and grated evenly.

Next, a case where the radish R to be cooked is formed to have an outer diameter approximately the same as the radius of the grated portion main body 20 will be described.

Grate this radish R with a grated cutter 1 as shown in Figure 5.
5 Place it on top. The radish R has an outer diameter that fits within the outer diameter of the grated part main body 20, and the surface 20a of the grated part main body 20 and the surface 32a of the fitting part 32 are substantially flush with each other. The entire lower surface side of R is the grated cutter 15
It comes into contact with the grater blade 21 formed over the entire surface of (see (a)).

The lid 14 is pressed and the grated cutter 15 is rotated by driving the motor. By the rotation of the grated cutter 15,
The radish R in the container 12 is grated by the grater blade 21 while moving on the surface of the grater cutter 15 (see arrow (a)) and coming into contact with the inner surface of the container 12 or the lid 14 (see (b)). The number of revolutions is made to rotate around the drive shaft 13 while being rotated. At this time, due to the action of centrifugal force, the radish R is
2, or because it tries to move upward along the inner surface of the lid body 14, the lower surface on the image side is scraped into a curved shape.
(See (b)). Further, since the centrifugal force exceeds the gravity acting on the radish R, the lower surface of the radish R is aligned with the inner surface of the container 12 or the lid 14, and the radish R tends to turn over. The radish R, which is about to turn over, stands up so that the horizontal radial direction becomes the vertical direction (see arrow (b)) and jumps, trying to push the lid body 14 up.

However, from the upper surface of the grated cutter 15 to the recess 16
The height H of the space above the cutter 15 that reaches the back surface 16c of the bottom wall is formed to be approximately the same length as the radius of the grated cutter 15 or longer (larger than the outer diameter of the radish R). It will not come off from the container 12.

In addition, the height of the radish R is regardless of the size of the outer diameter of the radish R.
A radish R is placed on a grated cutter 15, a lid 14 is attached to a container 12, and the lid 14 is further pressed to a height at which a switch can be operated.

By the way, when the radish R is placed in the center of the grated cutter 15 when starting the cooking 9#lO, it moves due to centrifugal force and collides with the inner surface of the container 12 or the lid 14.

The impact of the collision is not large, but before colliding with the inner surface of the container 12 or the lid 14, the lid 14 collides with the curved surface portion or the earthen wall forming between the earth wall of the lid 14 and the side wall. try to lift it. However, in the case of the cooker 10, if the radish R is tall, it will hit the bottom wall rear surface 16c of the recess 16 serving as the oil inlet, and the lid body 4 cannot be attached, so it is difficult to start the cooker 10. It is possible to prevent the use of the radish R that sometimes collides with the corner of the lid body 14.

In addition, in the cooking device 10, other cooking blades such as a slicing blade (not shown) can be attached to the drive shaft 13 in place of the grating cutter 15, so that cooking other than grating can be performed. When replacing the cooking blade, when removing the grated cutter 15 from the drive shaft 13, place your fingers on both recesses 34° 34 of the fitting part 32 and lift it upward. At this time, the engagement convex portion 23 enters below the slope 33a, and the fitting portion 32 and the lowering portion main body 20
Since they are engaged with each other, the grating section main body 20 and the rotary table 30 can be removed as a unit.

After the cooking is finished, the grated cutter 15 is divided into the grated part main body 20 and the rotating table 30, so that the cooking blades and the lid body inside the cooking device 10 can be connected to each other while the other cooking blades are attached to the drive shaft 13. It can be stored in the space between 14 and 14.

[Effects] As explained above, the cooking device according to the present invention has a drive shaft that penetrates the bottom surface of a container placed on the main body, projects into the container, and is rotated by a motor inside the main body. , a cooking device in which a grated cutter or other cooking blade is removably attached and rotated to cook the food in the container, the grated cutter having a grated part main body having a grated blade on its surface; and a rotary table formed on the upper part of the shaft part to be attached to the drive shaft, and a fitting part on which the grater body is attached so that the surface of the grater body and the surface having the grater blade are substantially flush with each other. It is characterized by

Therefore, it is possible to easily cook the food by cutting the food into small pieces in advance, and the grated cutter can be stored in the cooking appliance with other cooking blades attached.
