U.S. Pat. No. 6,018,883 to Mulhauser discloses a manually-driven centrifugal drying device with a handle that is oriented for movement perpendicular to the lid assembly, but the mechanism does not provide leverage attain rapid movement of the spinner. U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2006/0144257 to Cheng et. al. discloses a manually-driven centrifugal drying device with a pull-cord drive that generates leverage but is oriented for movement not perpendicular to the lid assembly.
- A pivotally-leveraged manual centrifugal drive according to a preferred embodiment of the invention for use with a bowl and a basket formed to nest within the bowl comprises: a) a housing formed to mate with the bowl; b) a rotation wheel rotatably connected to the housing, formed to mate with the basket, and having a plane of rotation; c) a handle pivotally attached to the housing and oriented to move in a plane that is substantially perpendicular to the plane of rotation of the rotation wheel; and d) gears connecting the handle to the rotation wheel. The device may also include an automatic clutch that engages the rotation wheel only when the handle is moved in one direction. A further optional feature is a mechanism for decelerating the rotation wheel, which includes a disk having a diameter substantially smaller than the rotation wheel.

FIGS. 1-8 b depict an embodiment of the present invention of a pivotally leveraged manualcentrifugal drive 20 for use with abowl 86 andbasket 92 nested within the bowl so as to form a manually-drivencentrifugal drying device 10. As shown inFIG. 6 , the pivotally-leveraged manualcentrifugal drive 20 mates with abowl 86 having solid walls and aconical protuberance 90 at its bottom, upon which the basket 92 (which is perforated and nests within the bowl 86) can spin during use. Thebowl 86 may also include an annular high-friction footing 88 at its base. As manually-driven centrifugal drying devices generally including a spinning basket nested within a bowl are well-known, the present. drawings and description are directed to the inventive pivotally-leveraged manualcentrifugal drive 20 that spins thebasket 92. -
FIGS. 1 and 2 show a top perspective view of the pivotally-leveraged manualcentrifugal drive 20, which primarily consists of a generallyflat housing 21 and ahandle 24 pivotally attached to the pivotally-leveraged manualcentrifugal drive 20. Alocking button 30 slides forward and backward on thehandle 24 and includes a protruding pin (not shown) that inserts (when thehandle 24 is in the down position as shown inFIG. 1 and thebutton 30 is moved forward) in a corresponding notch in theabutment 94, so as to lock the handle in the down position shown inFIG. 1 . In the preferred embodiment, the handle can pivot further upwardly than shown inFIG. 2 , such as to approximately a 90 degree angle with thehousing 21. The pivotally-leveraged manualcentrifugal drive 20 also includes abrake button 26, further described below. As best seen inFIGS. 3 and 7 , thehandle 24 is biased toward the fully upwardly pivoted position by aspring 34. (The straight end of thespring 34 is engaged within a corresponding hole in the cylindrical opening in the end of thehandle 24 while the longer, curved end is retained on ascrew 40 along with a ring 42). Thehandle 24 pivots on a shaft 38 (which is affixed at each end within corresponding holes formed instanchion 43 anddome 45, with abushing 84 placed on theshaft 38 to bear the central portion of spring 34), and aspring 34 urges thehandle 24 upwardly so that as soon as a user stops pushing thehandle 24 downwardly towards the pivotally-leveraged manualcentrifugal drive 20, thehandle 24 pivots upwardly back to an extended position.Rotation wheel 58 is driver un-directionally by manual operation of thehandle 24, and itsfins 100 engage thebasket 92 so that it rotates within thebowl 86. (Fins 102 are adapted to engage an optional, smaller-diameter “berry basket”—not shown—that can be nested within the basket. 92). - With particular reference to
FIGS. 3-5B and 7, the transfer of force from manual operation of thehandle 24 into therotation wheel 58 is described. Theteeth 25 at thepinion end 82 of the handle 24 (seeFIGS. 5A and 5B ), which are engaged with the teeth. 78 of arack 72, drive the rack 72 (which is free to slide ontracks 77 until hitting an abutment 79) in the direction away fromaxle 51 when thehandle 24 is pushed downwardly toward the position shown inFIG. 5A . As seen inFIGS. 3 and 7 ,teeth 73 of therack 72 engage (through aperture 75 in dome 45)pinion 70, which is fixedly attached to adrive wheel 68 and is stabilized on an axle 62 (which is received. in a corresponding hole in the top interior ofgear housing 74 such that theaxle 62 can rotate within the hole). (Housing closure 60 is fixedly attached tohousing 21 such as by locatingpegs 106 inguide holes 96 and screws (not shown) inguides 98 and internally--threadedstanchions 104, andgear housing 74 is in turn fixedly attached tohousing closure 60 such as by screws and stanchions). Thus downward and upward pivoting of thehandle 24 produce forward and backward motion of therack 72, producing resulting clockwise and counterclockwise rotation of thedrive wheel 68. Clutchcog 44clutches gear 50 only whendrive wheel 68 is rotated clockwise as viewed inFIGS. 7-8B , however, because the ends of its axle are free to move within a slightlyarcuate path 108 defined in housing closure 60 (and a corresponding slightly arcuate path defined in the opposing portion of thegear housing 74, the reverse outline of which is visible on the other side ofgear housing 74 inFIGS. 3 and 7 ). Counterclockwise rotation ofdrive wheel 68urges clutch cog 44 along slightlyarcuate path 108 in the direction away fromgear 50 andaxle 51, and clockwise rotation urges it towardgear 50. As shown inFIG. 8B , whenclutch cog 44 is clutching gear 50 (i.e., during clockwise rotation of thedrive wheel 68 as viewed inFIGS. 7-8B ), the “drive-train” shown in FIG. 7 is fully connected and produces leveraged revolution ofgear 50 androtation wheel 58 to whichaxle 51 is fixedly attached by endcap 56 (with abushing 46 provided between theaxle 51 and housing closure 60). As shown inFIG. 8A , whenclutch cog 44 is not clutching gear 50 (i.e., during and after counterclockwise rotation of thedrive wheel 68 as viewed inFIGS. 7-8B ), the “drive-train” shown inFIG. 7 is not connected such that rotation wheel 58 (to whichaxle 51 is fixedly attached) is therefore free to spin irrespective of the motion of the rest of the drive-train and gears. Preferably for added stability (not shown), instead of asingle drive gear 68, a symmetric, counter-rotating double-drive gear may be used, each having a pinion driven by teeth on opposing sides of a wider rack. One of ordinary skill also of course will recognize that a variety of other suitable mechanisms known in the art readily could be adapted as an alternative means of transferring the pivotal motion of thehandle 24 into rotation ofrotation wheel 58. - In a further optional feature, a brake means including a
brake disk 54 can be employed to indirectly decelerate therotation wheel 58. In the embodiment shown in the Figures, thebrake disk 54 includes a high-friction tire 52 and is indirectly fixedly attached to the rotation wheel 58 (e.g., by endcap 56 screwed ontoaxle 51 or other suitable means such as a snap-lock). Thetire 52 is slowed when theram 64 impinges upon it. Theram 64 is biased against contact with thetire 52 by aspring 48, and is activated by manual pressure on thebrake button 26. Manual pressure on thebrake button 26 plunges arod 36 downwardly against the bias of thespring 76, moving awedge 66 downwardly. Downward movement of thewedge 66 forces the complementary wedge-shaped face on theram 64 to drive the other end of theram 64 into contact with thetire 52, slowing thedisk 54, and thus theaxle 51, and thus therotation wheel 58. - It is noted that the majority of the parts of the described embodiment of a pivotally-leveraged manual centrifugal drive preferably can be made of plastics that are suitably hard, strong, and durable, with only limited parts (such as the
axle 62,gear 50,teeth 73, screws, springs, etc.) being optionally or preferably made of metals such as steel and/or zinc. - Although the present invention has been described in detail in the context of a preferred embodiment of a pivotally-leveraged manual centrifugal drive for use with a nested basket and bowl so as to form a manually-driven centrifugal drying device, one skilled in the art will appreciate that numerous variations, modifications, and other applications are also within the scope of the present invention. Thus, the foregoing detailed description is not intended to limit the invention in any way, which is limited only by the following claims and the legal equivalents.
