Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention mainly relates to a peeler for peeling sweet chestnuts prepared by roasting chestnuts.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As a peeler for peeling chestnut seeds, a peeler is used which is composed of a spatula blade, and the spatula blade is inserted between the fruit portion and the skin (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 50-76281 and 59-207115, (No. 62-69938, No. 62-69938), a nail-cutting type in which the skin is cut off with a sandwiching blade (No. 59-22616, No. 59-22616), scissors-like one of the swords is used as the cutting blade and the other is used as the restraining blade. The thing (Jitsukaihei 1-62722) etc. are known.

However, these devices are used for peeling raw chestnuts and are not suitable for directly peeling sweet chestnuts.

As a device for peeling sweet chestnut, a device for scratching the skin of sweet chestnut is known as shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-129520.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the conventional sweet chestnut peeling device described above, holding the device and chestnut with both hands, if you scratch the chestnut skin, you will put the device once and peel with both hands, which is not always easy to use. .

Therefore, the present invention proposes a peeling device that can be continuously used while holding the instrument without placing the instrument one by one.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 A sweet chestnut peeler according to the present invention pivotally connects an intermediate portion of a pair of actuating members, a distal end is a clamping portion, a proximal end is an operating portion, and a spring body for urging in a clamping direction is interposed. The sandwiching body is characterized in that the sandwiching portion is provided with serrated blades facing each other in parallel to the pivot axis direction.

Further, in the above-mentioned sweet chestnut peeling device, a blocking portion is provided between the pivotal portion and the sandwiching portion, the blocking portion having substantially the same width as that of the actuating member and capable of coping with the operation of the actuating member. It is characterized in that the blocking portion is formed of a flexible thin plate-like member and is bent in a U shape so that its end portion is slidably mounted on the opposite back surface of the operating member.

Further, in the above-mentioned sweet chestnut peeling device, the saw blades of the sandwiching portion are formed so as to be inclined so as to be flat when properly opened, or the saw blades are made to face each other so as to be staggered back and forth. And are characterized by.

Further, the sandwiching body is formed by intersecting the intermediate portion of the actuating member and pivotally connecting the intersecting portion.

[0011]

[Action]

 Press the operating part with one hand to open the sandwiching part and sandwich the sweet chestnut in the sandwiching part, or sandwich the sweet chestnut in the open sandwiching part and firmly grasp the operating part to firmly sandwich the sweet chestnut, and the chestnut skin The saw blade cuts into a part of the skin, and when the chestnut outside the sandwiching part is gently pulled with the other hand, part of the skin is peeled off by the device.

[0012]

【Example】

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. The chestnut peeler shown in the embodiment is a sandwiching body in which the middle portion of the pair of actuating members 1, 1a is pivotally connected 11 and the distal end side is the sandwiching portion 12 and the proximal end side is the operating portion 13. In addition, the spring body 2 for urging the holding portion 12 in the holding direction is interposed in the connecting portion 11, and the holding portion 12 is provided with a serrated blade 14 facing in parallel with the connecting shaft.

The saw blades 14 are designed so that the blades facing each other do not mesh with each other and are not formed symmetrically. For example, the saw blades of the operating member 1 have a sandwiching portion surface. Is bent so as to form an acute angle, and the serrated blade of the other actuating member 1a is formed so as to be inclined so as to form a right angle with the holding portion surface.

Further, the blocking portion 3 is provided between the pivotal portion 11 and the sandwiching portion 12. The blocking portion 3 is a flexible thin plate member made of synthetic resin and having substantially the same width as that of the actuating member 1. Is interposed between the back surfaces of the actuating members 1 and 1a that are bent and face each other, and one end is fixed to the actuating member 1 and the other end is formed on the back surface of the other actuating member 1a. It is slidably attached to 15.

In order to peel the sweet chestnut A using the above-mentioned device, the manipulating part 13 is strongly pressed with one hand to open the sandwiching part 12, and the sweet chestnut A is sandwiched between the sandwiching parts 12, and the saws facing each other are removed. Since the inclination angle of the blade is unbalanced, the state of pinch of the sweet chestnut (pinching state) changes slightly from the sandwiched state, and the serrated blade 14 bites into the skin of the sweet chestnut A at that time. Then, when the chestnut skin on the outer part of the holding part 12 is lightly pulled with the other hand, the saw blade 14 on the side of the actuating member 1 hooks the sweet chestnut skin easily, so that the skin is easily peeled off. Only a part of the skin A0 is pinched and left in the device, and it is possible to obtain the sweet chestnut A1 with a part of the skin removed, and the remaining skin can be easily removed by hand (Fig. 4).

Alternatively, if the sweet chestnut A is pulled from the sandwiching portion 12 while the sweet chestnut A is sandwiched, only the skin may be peeled off. In that case, the chestnut meat is removed from the sandwiching portion 12 and used for eating.

In particular, since the appliance is provided with the blocking portion 3, a part of the skin peeled from the chestnut does not enter the pivotal portion 11 and is removed from the appliance through the side opening of the holding portion 12. It is something that can be put out.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and the blocking portion may be a rubber band having elasticity or a thin spring steel plate having a strong elastic force, and FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, the clamping body is also configured such that the intermediate portions of the operating members 1A and 1B are intersected, the intersections are pivotally connected 11A, the distal end side is the clamping portion 12A, and the proximal end side is the operation portion 13A. The tool may be formed by adopting the above-mentioned one, by providing the sandwiching portion 12A with saw blades 14A facing in parallel to the direction of the pivot shaft 11A, and by providing the spring body 2A biased in the opening direction of the sandwiching portion 12A. It is a thing.

Further, with respect to the shape of the saw blade of the above-mentioned peeling machine, if the saw blade 14 is made to face the pivot axis in an inclined state, the blade is properly opened when opening, that is, pinching the sweet chestnut A. By facing each other, it is possible to more efficiently realize the biting of the blade 14 into the chestnut skin.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the saw blades are made to face each other so that they are staggered in the front and back, or a blade body 14b which is not inclined is employed, and further, a part of the skin is removed. A spatula plate 16 used to peel off the remaining skin when it is removed may be provided at one end of the sandwiching portion 12.

[0021]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, the intermediate portion of the pair of actuating members is pivotally connected to each other, and the front and rear of the pivotal portion are used as a holding body having a holding portion and an operating portion, and a spring body for biasing in the holding direction is interposed. It was possible to provide a device for peeling sweet chestnut easily with a sweet chestnut peeling device provided with a saw-shaped blade facing the holding part.
