Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention relates to a straining device that grinds and purees cooking ingredients such as potatoes and potatoes, and more specifically relates to the structure of a pressing blade that grinds cooking ingredients.

[Prior Art] In a conventional strainer for cooking materials, a rotating body having pressing blades is rotatably housed in a container body provided with a net covering a lower end opening.

The pressing blade has a shape that gradually slopes downward in the counter-rotation direction between an upper position away from the net and a lower position contacting the upper surface of the net. The pressing blade presses the cooking material put into the container main body against the mesh body as it rotates, thereby grinding the cooking material in cooperation with the mesh body.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] However, since the above-mentioned pressing blades for cooking ingredients have a shape that gradually slopes downward toward the net body,
The rotation and pressing force of the pressing blades directly acted on the cooking material, creating rotational resistance. For this reason, a large amount of force was required to grind the cooking ingredients, and the straining work could not be performed smoothly.

[Purpose of the invention] In view of the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, the purpose of the invention is to
To provide a cooking material pureeing device having pressing blades capable of smoothly grinding the cooking material.

[Means for Solving the Problems] Therefore, the present invention scrapes the cooking ingredients inside the container body as the rotating body rotatably supported within the container body has a mesh attached to the lower end. In the device for pureeing cooking materials to be crushed, the rotary body includes a first rotor that slopes downward in a direction opposite to the rotation direction of the rotary body.
a pressing piece, a second pressing piece that faces the net body at a predetermined distance from the counter-rotational direction of the first pressing piece and extends in the counter-rotating direction, and a second pressing piece that extends from the opposite-rotating direction end of the second pressing piece; A device for pureeing cooking materials is constituted by having a pressing blade consisting of a third pressing piece that comes into contact with the upper surface of the net after being tilted downward.

[Function of the device] Since the present invention is configured as described above, the cooking material is pressed against the mesh body by the first to third pressing pieces according to the size of the cooking material as the pureeing process progresses. It can be crushed by force. This reduces the rotational resistance of the rotating body and allows smooth straining work.

Next, the straining action of the strainer 1 assembled as described above will be explained with reference to FIG. 4. Furthermore, the fourth
The figure shows the direction of rotation in a straight line.

In FIG. 4, from the upper end opening 33 of the container body 3 to which the rotating body 9 is attached, for example,
After the cooking material 35 such as corn is put into the container body 3, when the pressing blade 27 is rotated in a desired direction by rotating the handle 29, the cooking material 35 is first pushed to some extent by the first pressing piece 27a. After being ground to a size of , it is introduced between the second pressing piece 27b and the upper surface of the net body 5. and pressing blade 27
As the cooking material 35 rotates, the second pressing piece 27
When the cooking material 35 is ground to a certain size by the cooperation of the cooking material 35 and the mesh body 5, the cooking material 35 is then introduced between the third pressing piece 27c and the mesh body 5 and ground. At this time, since the pressing blade 27 is urged downward by the elastic force of the compression spring 25, the cooking material 35 is crushed while being pressed toward the mesh body 5 side by the elastic force of the compression spring 25. The cooking material 35 ground by the above action is accommodated in the bottle part 11 through the mesh of the mesh body 5.

In this way, in this embodiment, the pressing blade 27 includes the first pressing piece 27a, the second pressing piece 27b, and the third pressing piece 2.
7c are integrally molded, and these first pressing pieces 27a
Since the second pressing piece 27b and the third pressing piece 27c can gradually grind the input cooking material 35 in cooperation with the net body 5, the pressing blade 2
By reducing the rotational resistance of the cooking material 35, the pureing work of the cooking material 35 can be performed smoothly.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the present invention can provide a cooking material puree device that has pressing blades that can smoothly grind the cooking material.
