Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable material to be cooked, to be cooked in a short time even if the diameter of the material to be cooked is larger than the radius of a grating cutter, by arranging cutting edges within a specified area from the center of a rotary disc, so that the quantity of the cutting edges may be less than the quantity of cutting edges per unit area on the external side periphery. CONSTITUTION:When a grating cutter 20 starts rotating, then a radish 35 is moved to the external side by a centrifugal force and is brought into contact with the inner peripheral wall of 12a of a vessel 12, and when the grating cutter 20 is turned clockwise for example, then the radish 35 is rotated round the grating cutter 20 with the fulcrum of the rotational center, clockwise U and is rotated on its axis counter-clockwise V with the fulcrum of a radish center Q. By the way, the quantity of cutting edges per unit area for a rotary base 21 is made smaller than the quantity of cutting edges per unit area for a peripheral section on the upper surface of a disc section 26, and so moment M clockwise to be generated by the cutting edges 25 the right half section S of a top board section is small. In other words, moment for preventing the radish 35 from being rotated on its axis counter-clockwise is made less, and the radish 35 is rotated on its axis counter-clockwise V at a high speed and is uniformly grated in a short time.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cooking device for cooking food in a container by attaching a grating cutter having a plurality of blades provided on the upper surface of a rotating disk to a drive shaft.

0002

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a cooking device shown in FIG. 4 has been known as such a cooking device. In FIG. 4, reference numeral 1 denotes a main body incorporating a drive motor (not shown), and a container 3 is removably placed on the upper surface 2 of this main body 1. The main body 1 is rotatably provided with a drive shaft 4 that is rotatably driven by the drive motor, and the drive shaft 4 protrudes from the top surface 2 and rotates around the container 3.
It penetrates the bottom 5 of the container 3 and enters the container 3. A grated cutter 6 that is rotated by a drive shaft 4 is provided in the container 3, and this grated cutter 6 includes a rotary table 7 that is detachably attached to the drive shaft 4 and has a circular upper surface 7a; It has a grating section main body 8 which is removably attached to the rotary table 7 and whose upper surface 8a is a doughnut-shaped flat surface.

[0003] The upper surface 7a of the rotary table 7 and the upper surface 8a of the grate section main body 8 are almost flush with each other.
Blades 9 of the same blade height are provided radially as shown in FIG. 10 is a lid.

[0004] For example, when making grated radish, cut the radish into rounds of appropriate size, place the slices in the container 3, and rotate the grated cutter 6.
b slides through the radish, and the radish can be grated in a short time.

When the grated cutter 6 rotates, the sliced radish D comes into contact with the inner circumferential wall 3a of the container 3 as shown in FIG. 5 due to centrifugal force, and as the grated cutter 6 rotates clockwise. Radish D rotates counterclockwise while revolving clockwise. During this rotation, the blades 9a and 9b (the left half blade of the grated cutter 6 in FIG. 5) that cut the radish D rotate in the direction of arrow G, and the radish D comes into contact with the inner circumferential wall 3a in the container 3, and this Blade 9a using the part as a fulcrum
, 9b, the material receives force from them, so the direction is counterclockwise. The faster the rotation, the more the radish D has blades 9a, 9.
A large amount of force is applied from b, and grated daikon radish is made in a short time.

[0006]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, when the diameter of the radish F becomes larger than the radius of the grated cutter 6, as shown by the chain line in FIG. Since the radish F is rotated in the direction to shave the radish F, a moment is generated in a direction that cancels out the counterclockwise rotation of the radish F, and the rotation of the radish F is slowed down by the moment. For this reason, there was a problem in that it took time to grate the radish F.

The present invention was made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a cooking device that can cook food in a short time even if the diameter of the material to be cooked is larger than the radius of the grating cutter. Our goal is to provide the following.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes a main body incorporating a drive motor, and a container that is removably placed on a mounting surface of the main body. A drive shaft that is rotationally driven by the drive motor when placed on the mounting surface of the main body protrudes into the container, and the drive shaft has a plurality of blades provided on the upper surface of a rotating disk. A cooking device that cooks the food to be cooked in a container by detachably attaching and rotating a cutter, wherein the cutter is installed within a predetermined range from the center of the rotary disk, and the cutter per unit area around the outside of the predetermined range. It is characterized by having fewer blades than the number of blades.

[0009]

[Operation] When the grated cutter rotates, one end of the material to be cooked placed in the container comes into contact with the inner wall of the container due to centrifugal force, and as the grated cutter rotates, it rotates around its axis. If the diameter of the material to be cooked is larger than the radius of the rotating disk, a portion of the material to be cooked will protrude from the center of the rotating disk, and a moment will act on this protruding portion to prevent the material from rotating. Within a certain range from the center of the rotating disk, the number of teeth per unit area is small, so the moment is small.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of the cooking appliance according to the present invention will be explained based on the drawings.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 11 denotes a main body incorporating a drive motor (not shown), and this main body 11 is formed with a mounting surface 13 on which a container 12 is removably mounted. Main body 11
a drive shaft 14 rotatably driven by the drive motor;
is rotatably provided, and its drive shaft 14 protrudes from the mounting surface 13 and penetrates the bottom 15 of the container 12.
is entering inside. A grated cutter 20 that is rotated by a drive shaft 14 is detachably mounted inside the container 13, and this grated cutter 20 has a rotary table 21 and a grated portion main body 22.

The rotary table 21 is integrally formed with a cylindrical portion 24 having a circular top plate portion 23 and a lower surface of the top plate portion 23, and
It has a bearing portion 23b that is detachably attached to the drive shaft 14. As shown in FIG. 2, on the upper surface 23a of the top plate part 23, a row of blades 25 are formed in the radial direction at equal pitches, and the number of blades per unit area is small. The blade height is also lower.

[0013] The grated part main body 22 is connected to the cylindrical part 2 of the rotary table 21.
4, and a donut-shaped disk portion 26 continuously formed on the top of the cylinder 27. This disk portion 26 and the top plate portion 23 of the rotary table 21 are substantially flush with each other, and blades 29 are formed radially on the top surface 26a of the disk portion 26 as shown in FIG.
The number of blades per unit area around the rotary table 21 is
The number of blades per unit is higher than that of . Also, blade 29
is higher than the height of the blade 25. A rotary disk 27 is constituted by the disk portion 26 and the top plate portion 23 of the rotary table 21. 30 is a recess into which a finger is inserted when removing the grated cutter 20.

Further, in FIG. 1, reference numeral 31 denotes a lid, and when the lid 31 is pressed, a switch (not shown) provided in the convex portion 32 of the main body 11 is turned on, and the drive motor is driven. is set to rotate.

Next, the operation of the cooking device constructed as described above will be explained.

First, 35 sliced radish (material to be cooked)
into the container 12 (see Figure 3). Next, when the lid 31 is pressed, a switch (not shown) is turned on, and a drive motor (not shown) is driven to rotate the grated cutter 20. When the grated cutter 20 begins to rotate, the radish 35 moves outward due to centrifugal force and comes into contact with the inner circumferential wall 12a of the container 12, as shown in FIG. When the grated cutter 20 rotates, for example, clockwise, the radish 35 revolves in the clockwise direction U using the rotation center of the grated cutter 20 as a fulcrum, and counterclockwise V using the radish center Q as a fulcrum. It rotates on its own axis.

By the way, the number of blades per unit area of the rotary table 21 is smaller than the number of blades per unit area of the peripheral part of the rotary table 21 on the upper surface 26a of the disc part 26, so the right side of the top plate part 23 The clockwise moment M caused by the blade 25 of half part S (in FIG. 3) is small. Furthermore, since the height of the blade 25 is low, its moment becomes even smaller. That is, the moment that prevents the rotation of the radish 35 in the counterclockwise direction becomes smaller, and the radish 35 rotates in the counterclockwise direction V at a high speed and is evenly ground in a short time.

[0018] When the diameter of the material is small, no moment acts in a direction that prevents the material from rotating, so
There are no problems mentioned above.

By the way, if the blade is not provided within a predetermined range, the rotation will be further promoted, but since the radish D will not be grated in the area where the blade is not present, the grating efficiency as a whole will be reduced. If the diameter of the radish D is large, there will be parts where the material only comes into contact with the part without the blade when it revolves.
The aforementioned phenomenon is more pronounced.

In the above embodiment, a row of blades 2 are mounted on the rotary table 21.
Since only the blades 5 are provided, the moment that hinders the rotation is small, and since the blades 25 are provided in a row at an equal pitch throughout the radial direction, the radish 35 can be grated evenly.

In the above embodiment, the grating cutter 20 has a rotary table 21 and a grating section main body 22 which are separate bodies.
Of course, it may also be an integrated disc-shaped one. In this case, the number of teeth per unit area within a predetermined range from the center of rotation, preferably within a range of 1/3 to 1/2 of the radius of the rotating disk, is smaller than the number of teeth per unit area around the range. do it. Further, the height of the blade 25 may be made the same as the height of the blade 29. Even in this case, it is possible to reduce the moment that prevents the material to be cooked from rotating.

[0022]

As explained above, according to the present invention, even if the diameter of the material to be cooked is larger than the radius of the grating cutter, the moment that prevents the rotation of the material to be cooked is small. It can be cooked in a short time.
