Description
March 20, 1934. 1 R. ALEXANDER VEGETABLE SLICING HOLDER Filed Dec. 25, 1932 Patented Mar. 20, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention relates to a vegetable slicing holder, and the main object is to provide a simple and convenient device for holding vegetables or fruits, While they are sliced, either in a slicer or by hand.
Another object is to provide a device of this kind, comprising simply a base and handle, the base being recessed in its lower or working face and provided with prongs upon which the vegetable or fruit may be impaled and held while it is sliced, the remaining part of the vegetable after it has been sliced oil flush with the base being pushed outward from the prongs for slicing by means of an extractor rod slidably mounted through the base and handle and communicating with the said recess,
With these and other objects in view, the invention resides in the novel construction and arrangement of parts as hereinafter set forth and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawing wherein Figure 1 is a plan view of the holder.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the underside or working face of the holder.
Figure 3 is a central cross section through the holder, showing a vegetable held in place for slicing upon a conventional form of slicer, the latter being shown in longitudinal cross section.
Referring now with more particularity to the drawing, my invention comprises a body or block designated generally at 5 and including a relatively large and flat base 6 and a reduced and rounded handle 7 extended centrally from one face 8 of the base, the body being preferably formed or turned from wood though any other suitable Inaterial may be employed. The base 6 has a recess 9 cut in its extended underside or working face 10, as shown, and a bore 11 is extended axially through the handle 7 and base and opens centrally into the recess. Around this opening a plurality of sharpened prongs or pins 12 are set or driven into the block within the recess 9 in any suitable arrangement as for instance, in two concentric circular rows as here shown.
An extractor or push rod 13 is slidably mounted through the bore 11 and diametrically enlarged circular push plates 14 and 15 are secured on each end of this rod, one being disposed within the recess 9 and the other at the end of the handle 7. Normally the push plate 15 in the recess 9 is adapted to lie in an annular socket or recess 16 formed around the mouth of the opening of the bore 11, and thus lie flush with the face of the recess and the length of the push rod 13 is such that in this position the other end of the rod and the associated push plate 14. projects some distance from the end of the handle, as shown in Figure 3.
In use, the vegetable as designated at A is mpaled on the prongs 12 in the manner shown,. where it is conveniently held for slicing either by hand or by the conventional and well known form of slicer as designated at B, same comprising a frame C and a sliding board D therein, on which the vegetable is placed and carried into engagement with the knife or blade, as will be understood. When the vegetable has been sliced off ush with the face 1D of Vthe block 5, the push rod 13 is pushed downward through the handle so that the push plate 15 will force the remainder of the vegetable outward from the prongs as it is sliced. The prongs 12, of course, do not extend beyond the plane of the face 1G, but are prefer ably terminated just short thereof, It is thought that further details of the utility and advantages of the device will be readily apparent, it being obvious that the block in use is grasped by the handle 7, and the hand is thus in no danger of coming in contact with the knife or slicer.
While I have herein set forth a certain preferred embodiment of my invention, it is understood that I may vary from the same in minor details, so as best to construct a practical device for the purpose intended, not departing from the spirit of the invention and within the scope of the appended claim.
I claim:
In a device of the kind described, a body portion comprising a flat base and a reduced and rounded handle extended from one face of the base, the base having a circular recess cut in its working face remote from the handle and the body portion having a central bore extending from the recess through the handle, the mouth of the bore in the said recess being cut away to form a surrounding annular socket, a push rod slidably mounted through the bore, diametrically enlarged push plates on each end of the push rod and one adapted to normally lie in the said socket and the other to project beyond the end of the handle, and a plurality of sharpened prongs seated in concentric rows in the said recess in the base and terminating at their free ends just short of the working face of the base.
JOHN R. ALEXANDER.
