Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a grater for grabbing radish, ginger and the like that are seasoned.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Various graters for grabbing radish and the like have been proposed since ancient times, but the most commonly used grater in recent years is a grater plate separate from this. It is placed on the case and dropped on the grater plate into the case.
According to this structure, the grated product can be reliably taken out, and the grater plate and the case after use can be easily washed, which is convenient.

However, when the radish to be grated is limited to the radish, the grated radish falls into the case while containing a large amount of water, so if you try to season it, the amount of water will dilute the seasoning amount. You will be endangered. Also, if you want to use the grated radish as a seasoning for tempura soup, you must squeeze the grated radish to remove water.

Therefore, the present inventor has conducted various studies as to how to automatically divide the water when the radish is grated so as to make grated radish with sufficiently drained water. The present invention has been completed.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the problems to be solved are as follows.
It is the removal of water when grated radish.

An object of the present invention is to provide a grater having a simple structure, which can automatically separate the water content when radish is grated.

[0007]

Means for Solving the Problems To solve the above problems, the means adopted by the invention according to claim 1 will be described with reference to the reference numerals used in the embodiments. A grater that continuously forms a collecting groove 12 that collects the grated product in the grater 11 around the entire circumference of the part 11 and forms an outlet 14 in a part of an enclosure wall 13 that constitutes the collecting groove 12. 10, the outlet 1 of the grater 11
4, the radish grated part 11a is formed on the opposite side, and the bottom of the collecting groove 12 on the opposite side to the outlet 14 is set to the maximum height, and the collecting groove 12 located near the outlet 14 is formed. Is the lowest height, and the bottoms of both parts are smoothly continuous. It is a grater 10 ".

The means adopted by the invention according to claim 2 is that, in the grater 10 according to claim 1, the radish grater portion 11a is inclined so as to be gradually lowered with respect to the collecting groove 12 side. .

[0009]

The operation of the grater 10 according to each of the claims constructed as above will be described together with the mode of use thereof. First, the grater 10 is integrally formed, for example, as one made of ceramics. Therefore, it can be easily used and washed.

Further, in this grater 10, a grater portion 11 is formed in the center thereof, and a collecting groove 12 is formed all around the grater portion 11, so that the grater portion 11 is slightly formed at the outermost periphery from the upper surface of the grater portion 11. Since the high enclosure wall 13 is formed, the grater work in the grater part 11 can be easily performed. In other words, in this grater 10, whether it is radish or spice, when grabbing it, you have to hold the radish etc. in your hand to perform the grater work, but there is no protrusion around the grater 11. No collection groove 1
In addition, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, since the surrounding wall 13 is formed slightly higher than the upper surface of the grater portion 11 at the outermost circumference, the hand during grater work is There is nothing to touch.

In the embodiment described below, the grater 1
Since 1 is divided into a large radish grated part 11a and a fine condiment grated part 11b, grated products suitable for different kinds of materials can be freely selected and used.

Now, in this grater 10, the grater 1
1 radish grated part 1 on the side opposite to the outlet 14
1a is formed, the portion of the collecting groove 12 opposite to the outlet 14 is the highest portion 12a, and the outlet 14 side is the lowest portion 12b.
Moreover, since the highest part 12a and the lowest part 12b are smoothly continuous, the water content of the radish grated in the grated radish part 11a is reliably separated. That is, when the radish is grated in the grated radish part 11a, the grated radish is collected in the collecting groove 12 adjacent to this, but since this collecting groove 12 is the highest part 12a. So, the water in grated radish is the highest part 1
It flows out from 2a to the lowest part 12b side.

In other words, if the radish is grated in the grated radish 11a, the grated radish will collect near the highest part 12a of the collecting groove 12 and the water of the grated radish will collect near the lowest part 12b of the collecting groove 12. is there.

Of course, as shown in FIG. 3, since the entire collecting groove 12 is visible to the eyes of the grater operator, the amount of accumulated water near the lowest portion 12b of the collecting groove 12 is also large. It is easy to separate. Therefore, if the amount of water near the lowest portion 12b of the collecting groove 12 becomes large,
If the operator holds the grater 10 so that the outlet 14 is on the lower side, only the water accumulated near the lowest portion 12b is removed. This is because the grated radish remains accumulated on the highest portion 12a of the collecting groove 12. Repeating the above steps will give you grated daikon radish with sufficient water removed.

By the way, in the grater 10 according to the second aspect, since the radish grazing portion 11a is inclined so as to become gradually lower with respect to the collecting groove 12 side, the radish grazing portion 11a.
Body and water are already separated during the grate work. That is, if the radish is grated on the radish grated part 11a, the water will be slightly inclined and the water will be collected from the radish grated part 11a to the collecting groove 1.
Since it flows into the inside of 2, and the place where this flows is near the highest part 12a, the body of the grated radish remains on the radish grated part 11a, and the water collects in the lowest part 12b of the collecting groove 12. If there is more body on the radish-grated part 11a, it can be dropped on the highest part 12a of the collecting groove 12.
In this case, since the water in the body is sufficiently drained, the dropping work can be easily performed.
