Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] In the present invention, a cutter is inserted into the output shaft protruding from the main body into the container, and an inlet is provided in a part of the waist cover to input the workpiece.

This invention relates to a push member for a food cooking device that uses a push member to press a workpiece against a cutter blade to cut and grate the workpiece.

Conventionally, in the food cooking device, a protruding piece has been provided on the bottom of the pushing member to bear the frictional load between the cutter and the workpiece during cutting, grating, and the like.

As a result, the minimum thickness of the remaining material was the sum of the thickness corresponding to the depth of the protruding piece pierced into the workpiece and the distance between the blade surface of the cutter and the tip of the protruding piece.

Further, it is difficult to further manually process the leftover material.

It is difficult to make the distance between the blade surface of the guide vine and the tip of the protruding piece zero in terms of manufacturing control of the device, and a certain amount of clearance is required.

The present invention focuses on the above-mentioned drawbacks and aims to eliminate waste of leftovers through easy operation.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 is a food cooking device.

The output of the electric motor M built in the main body 2 is gear 3.3
', 3'' to the output shaft 4.

A container 5 is placed on the main body 2, and a lid 6 is placed on the container 5.

On the other hand, the cutter 7 fitted into the output shaft 4 is positioned inside the container 5.

The lid 6 is provided with an input port 8, and the workpiece N is input into the container 5.

In the food cooking device 1 in which the pushing member 9 is inserted through the input port 8, a plurality of protruding pieces 10 are protruded from the bottom of the pushing member 9 on the workpiece N side for holding the workpiece.

A press plate 11 is fixed to the bottom part with a spring 12 and a screw 13.

The push plate 11 has a hole 14 through which the protrusion piece 10 is inserted, and the protrusion piece 10 can be partially rotated circumferentially by rotation of the push member 9.

Further, the push plate 11 has a chevron-shaped protrusion 1 on the surface facing the push member 9.
A groove 16 with a slope facing the chevron-shaped protrusion 15 of the push plate 11 is carved in a part of the bottom or outer periphery of the pusher member 9.

The outer periphery of the push plate 11 is provided with a retaining portion 18 that engages with the engagement portion 17 on the inner periphery of the input port 8, prevents rotation of the push plate 11, and allows the push member 9 to be inserted from the input port 8. ing.

N is the workpiece. In addition, it is also possible to bend the engagement portion at the lower end of the input port 8 in the direction of rotation.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

When a switch (not shown) is turned on to rotate the electric motor M, the cutter 7 fitted into the output shaft 4 rotates within the container 5.

The workpiece N is inputted through the input port 8 of the lid 6, and the pushing member 9 is pressed to press the workpiece N against the blade surface of the cutter 7 to perform cutting or grating.

As the machining continues, the thickness of the workpiece N becomes thinner, and the distance between the blade surface of the cutter and the tip of the protruding piece of the pushing member becomes minimum.

At this time, you can clearly determine that the load is lighter, so
Push the head of the push member 9 that is being touched by the hand.

As a result, since the push plate 11 cannot rotate relative to the input port 8, the push member 9 rotates relative to the push plate 11.

Due to the rotation, the groove 16 of the push member 9 and the chevron-shaped protrusion 15 of the push plate 11 are in close contact with each other, and while sliding, the surface of the push member 9 on the push plate 11 side and the surface of the push plate 11 on the push member 9 side are brought into contact with each other. Move in a direction that increases the distance.

The push plate 11 further pushes the workpiece N in one direction of the cutter by the distance between the expanded push member and the push plate, and the protruding piece 10 that has pierced the workpiece N comes out of the workpiece N, and processing is continued. Ru.

In addition, by bending the lower end engagement part of the input slot 8 in the rotational direction as described in the configuration section, the user can push the input slot with his/her hand from above to prevent the push member from rotating. The same effect as applying the above rotation manually from the bent part of the fixed part is obtained.

Therefore, without checking the degree of cutting, continuous cutting, grating, etc. can be performed from a certain position of the input port reliably to achieve the desired purpose.

As a result of the above, the residue P of the workpiece N is machined to a thickness that is at least the greater of the distance between the workpiece side surface of the press plate and the cutter's cutting edge, or the distance between the tip of the protruding piece and the cutter's cutting edge. Can be done.

Furthermore, although the rotation of the pushing member relative to the pushing plate is restricted by the protruding piece, the thickness of the residue P is limited to the distance between the cutting edge surface of the cutter and the tip of the protruding piece due to the height and depth of the chevron-shaped protrusion 15 and the groove 16. Processing is possible.

The relationship between the chevron-shaped protrusion 15 and the groove 16 is to increase the distance between the push plate 11 and the push member 9. It is also possible to provide the groove on the push plate side and the protrusion on the push member side, thereby increasing the distance between the two. The means to the end is an extension of this idea.

With the above-described configuration and operation, it is possible to eliminate waste of leftover workpieces and obtain a high processing yield with easy operation.
