Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable the cutting of a material by position rotation by designing a processor in such a manner that even when one of plural protruding parts slips over the upper face of the material to form a groove, another protruding part arrangement at a position where a diameter is different does not pass on the same track as does the protruding part which slips and therefore, that the other protruding part fits into the material to stop it rotation without being trapped into the groove formed by the protruding part which slips. SOLUTION: This processor is of such a construction that a processor body 9 incorporating a motor 10 is arranged with a base table 5 with a cutting blade 8 in such a manner that the processor body 9 is freely movable vertically and a material A is held by a material holding plate 17 attached to the output shaft 12 of the motor 10 and then is cut by causing the material A to rotate. In this case, plural protruding parts 18 to be fitted to the material A are formed on the material holding plate 17 in such a way that the protruding parts 18 are arranged non-concentrically with the rotating center of the material holding plate 17.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a cooker for cutting ice, radish and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a cooking device for cutting ice or radish, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 3-149018 (A47J 43/25) and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open
2. Description of the Related Art A cooker disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 23 (A47J 43/04) is known.

In this cooker, a main body containing a motor is vertically movable on a base having a cutting blade, and a material pressing plate is attached to a rotating shaft of the motor facing a lower part of the main body. When the material is held by the holding plate and the electric motor is rotated, the material holding plate rotates and the material is cut, and the body is gradually moved downward by its own weight or the force of pressing the body with the cutting of the material. It is designed to descend.

[0004] On the lower surface of the material holding plate, a projection is formed to stop the material from rotating. However, since this projection is formed at right angles to the material holding plate, the rotation of the material holding plate is started. Sometimes, the projections are difficult to engage with ice, and the material holding plate may run idle.

In the case where the projection does not engage with the material and slips and the upper surface of the material is shaved by the projection to form a groove, the projection is arranged concentrically with the rotation center of the material holding plate. Therefore, the plurality of protrusions follow the same trajectory, the other protrusions fit into the grooves formed by the slipped protrusions, so that the material cannot be rotated, and ice may not be cut.

Further, the material holding plate is generally made of metal (stainless steel), and especially when shaved ice is made, the material holding plate is at room temperature for the first time, so that the protrusions bite into the ice and surely. Although ice can be retained, if the ice is cut continuously, the material holding plate is cooled from the second time, so when the ice is placed, the protrusion does not engage with the ice and the material holding plate slips. Therefore, there was a possibility that the ice could not be rotated, and thus the ice could not be cut.
