Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a manual cooking device that cuts fruits and vegetables in a container using a cutter member for hand rotation. Even though the cooking device cuts the vegetables into shapes, it also turns the vegetables into a soup like jujusa.

[Conventional technology]

In addition to the Juyusa, which has been widely used as a cooking device for cutting vegetables, there are also devices for cutting vegetables in the shape of dice, such as Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 59-135033 for the electric type, and for manual use. Publications such as Utility Model Application Publication No. 52-65659 and Utility Model Application Publication No. 61-139742 are known as such.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

By the way, the above-mentioned cooker for juicing and the cooker for cutting dice-shaped cutters not only differ in the size of the cutter member and its rotation speed, but also have a marked difference in the shape, size, etc. of the container in which the vegetables are stored. That's what I'm doing.

That is, the above-mentioned known electric or manual cooking appliances are all intended for cutting into dice shapes, and therefore the cutter member rotates at a low speed. On the other hand, in order to turn it into a soup like Juyusa, the cutter member needs to be rotated at high speed, so if you use a cooker that cuts the dice shape mentioned above and rotate the cutter member at high speed, it will be like Juyusa. It should be possible to turn vegetables into a soup, but this is not the case.

The reason for this is that the cutter member of the above-mentioned manual cooker is larger than that of the juicer, and the bottom of the container is flat, so the cutter member simply rotates at a high speed. If this happens, excessive resistance will be applied to the cutting or driving parts, making it impossible to turn the vegetables into a soup.

The purpose of the present invention is to use a manual cooker having a large container and a cutter member as described above to cut vegetables into minced meat and turn them into a soup like juice.

[Means for solving problems]

The manual cooker of the present invention is equipped with a lid body that is detachably attached to the top of a cylindrical container with a flat bottom surface and has a bottom lid on the bottom surface, and further has a lid body that protrudes above the lid body. In a cooking appliance in which a cutter member is horizontally supported on a rotating shaft that hangs down toward the center of the container so that it can be rotated by a supported hand handle via a gear mechanism provided in the lid body. The gear mechanism is characterized in that the rotating shaft can be switched between high and low speeds by moving a part of the intermediate shaft in the gear mechanism up and down using a knob on the lid.

[Effect]

In the cooking device of the present invention, a suitably sized chunk of vegetables is stored in a container, a lid is attached, and then the gear mechanism inside the lid is rotated at a low speed by first picking it up and lowering it. When the switch is switched and the handle is manually rotated, the vegetables in the container are shredded (middle cut) into the required dice shape by the cutter member. Next, by pulling up the knob, the transmission mechanism is switched to a high speed, and the handle is rotated at approximately the same speed as above, and the cutter member is rotated at a high speed, resulting in the above-mentioned dice shape. Vegetables are cut into extremely small pieces and turned into a soup.

Therefore, if you want to dice vegetables, you can do it before switching, and if you want to make it into a soup like you put it on jujusa, first process it at low speed as described above, then pick it. By pulling up, the rotation of the cutter member can be switched to high speed.

is a gear mechanism for speed change housed in the lid 7, and this mechanism 9 controls the rotation of the drive shaft 11 that penetrates the eccentric part of the lid 7 and projects upward, and directs the rotation of the drive shaft 11 downward from the center of the bottom lid 7'. When the lid 7 is fitted onto the container 1, the driven shaft 12 and the rotating shaft 4 are connected. 13 is drive shaft 1
It is a handle for hand rotation provided on the top of 1.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 3, and 4, the gear mechanism 9 for speed change includes, in addition to a drive shaft 11 and a driven shaft 12, three
It has parallel intermediate shafts 14, 15, 16, and the drive shaft 11 has an original gear A, and the intermediate shaft 1
4 and 15 are provided with small and large gears B, B', C and C' in upper and lower stages, respectively, and the other intermediate shaft 16 has upper and lower large and small gears N' and D, and the driven shaft 12 is provided with large and small gears N' and D. A follower gear is provided on each axis. The intermediate shaft 14 is projected from the upper part of the lid 7 (Fig. 5), and can be switched up and down in two stages by a knob 17 at the upper end, and the pinion of the shaft is formed wide. As a result, when the knob moves up and down, it is always in mesh with the original gear A of the drive shaft 11, whereas the other large gear B' is in mesh with the intermediate shaft 14 on which the large gear is mounted. When is in the lower position, the next intermediate shaft 15 is located in the intermediate part where there are no teeth between large and small gears C and C' (Fig. 4 A), and the above intermediate shaft 1

When the handle 13 is rotated with the drive shaft 11 set at the lower position as shown by the solid line in FIG. In the state, the large gear
is located at the part where there are no teeth between gears C and C' as described above, and at the same time gear R' is located at the portion where there are no teeth between gears C and C'
By directly meshing with the driven gear E, the rotary shaft 4 rotates at a low speed to cut the vegetables into dice shapes. At this time, the large gear N' of the intermediate shaft 16 is in mesh with the driven gear E, so that the intermediate shafts 16 and 15 are idled by the driven gear E.

When cutting vegetables into dice like this, you can take them out of the container 1 in the above state, but if you want to cut them into smaller pieces and turn them into a soup, pull up the knob 17. By slightly rotating the lower stopper 18 so that it is received in the recess 19, the intermediate shaft 14 moves from A in Fig. 4 to the upper stage shown in B, so that it moves from the original gear A to the upper stage shown in B in Fig. 4. , through the respective gears B, B', C, C', D, and D' of the intermediate shafts 14, 15, and 16, and the rotational shaft 4 is As the speed is increased several steps, the cutter member 5 is rotated at a high speed and the dice-shaped cut material is turned into a liquid.

[Effect of idea]

According to the present invention, the cutter member is supported in a manual cooker in which the shape, size, and other configurations of the container and the cutter member are suitable for cutting vegetables into dice. By incorporating a gear mechanism for switching between high and low speeds on the rotating shaft, it is possible to further divide the dice-shaped cuttings into smaller pieces and turn the vegetables into a soup like jujusa. A single cooker can be used for two purposes. In addition, in the present invention, the above-mentioned gear mechanism can be switched by pulling up the knob, and even if it is to be made into a soup, it is necessary to cut the dice first, so whether the cooking is done in the form of dice or soup. This will eliminate the negative effects of making incorrect choices.
