VEGETABLE-CUTTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 509,564, dated November 28, 1893.
Serial No. 465,927. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRED. K. ZEHE, a citizen of the Uhited States, residing at Ashland, in the county of Ashland and State of Wisconsin, have invented a new and useful Vegetable-Cutter, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in that class of inventions known as vegetable cutters or crushers; and the objects in view are to provide a machine of this class of cheap, simple and economical construction adapted to out or shred with facility cabbages and other vegetables.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will appear in the following description and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the claim.
Referring to the drawings:-Figure 1 is a perspective view of a machine embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view. Fig. 3 is a detail in perspective of the stationary knife-carrying plate. Fig. 4: is a top plan View. Fig. 5 is a transverse section of the cutter-plate.
Like numerals of reference indicate like parts in all the figures of the drawings.
In practicing my invention I employ a pair of opposite, preferably cast-metal, standards, the same being formed in upper and lower sections designated as 1 and 2 respectively, the said sections terminating at their adjacent ends in meeting flanges 3 which are bolted together as shown. The sections form continuations of each other, and the upper section of the standard thus constructed is provided with a journal box 4. In the journalbox 4 is journaled a transverse power-shaft 5, the same at one end being provided with a suitable operating-crank 6 located beyond the adjacent standard, and at the inner side of the opposite standard being provided with or having mounted thereon for movement therewith a beveled master-gear 7.
Interposed between the meeting flanges 3 of the standard-sections heretofore described and securelyclamped by the same and through the medium of bolts 8 which pass through the meeting flanges is a circular cutter-plate 9. The cutter-plate 9 is provided at opposite sides with horizontal flanges 10 having boltholes 11 for the reception of the bolts 8, the
said flanges taking between the meeting fiauges3 as heretofore mentioned. The plate is provided with a series of radial slots 12, at one edge of each of which an inclined shoulder 12 is formed, and adjacent to the ends of the slots an annular rib 13 is formed.
14 designates a cylindrical hopper, the same being mounted upon the plate 9 and Within the rib 13, the said hopper having formed upon its exterior or secured thereto a beveled toothed-ring 15, which ring is engaged by the teeth of the mastengear 7 through the medium of which, as will be obvious, the ring and hopper may revolve upon the plate 9. The hopper has its exterior provided with a shallow recess formed near its upper end and designated as 16, and surrounding the hopper and seated in the recess is an extension-wall 17 of said hopper so that the same is given a proper depth and may be thereby made lighter that the hopper proper 1-1.
At the center of the plate 9 a depending hollow-stud 19 is located, through which extends a pin 20, the upper end of the pin being slightly larger than its lower end, thereby producing a shoulder 21 at its middle which rests upon the upper end of the hollow-stud 19. Enciroling the stud is a hub 22, and radiating from the hub is aseries of inclined sweepblades 23, Whose outer extremities are bolted as at 24 to the Wall of the hopper 14, and whose lower edges are just above the bottom or cutter-plate 9. Secured to the under side of the cutter-plate 9 is a depending dischargespout 25, and secured to each of the inclined shoulders 12 is an inclined blade or knife 26, each of which is provided with a pair of slots 27 through which set-screws 28 pass into said shoulders and serve to adjust the upper or cutting-edges of the knives through the slots in the plate 9.
This concludes the construction of the machine and the same operates as follows: It will be obvious that the shaft 15 may be rotated either by hand or mechanicalpower, and in either instance motion will be communicated by the master-gear 7 through the ring 15 to the hopper, which will thus be rotated upon the plate 9 carrying with it the series of inclined radial sweep-arms 23. In order to slice or cut vegetables, roots, &c.,it is simply necessary to deposit the same in the extension 17 of the hopper and they will be gradually fed as the knives consume them between the sweep-arms, which being inclined forces them against the knives as the hopper revolves car- 5 rying them over and over the same until they are sliced or cut, and in such condition they are dropped through the spout 25.
The device is particularly adapted for sh redding or cutting cabbages, though as will be obvious, it may be employed for cutting other vegetables as willtas roots. However, in order to provide for a more perfect shredding and cutting of cabbages I prefer to provide the bottom or plate 9 of the hopper with a series of radial openings 29 between the slots, through which the knives pass, and in each of these perforations extends a small vertical knife or blade 30 so that the. cabbage is first scarred or slit in one direction and afterward by the cutters or blades 26 cut in the opposite direction, whereby a more complete shredding or disintegration takes place.
Changes in the details of construction will readily suggest themselves to those skilled in this class of improvements, and I therefore do not limit the invention to such details as I have herein shown, but hold that I may vary the same to any degree and extent found necessary in order to accomplish the ends and objects of the invention.
Having described my invention, what I claim is In a machine of the class described, the combination with the opposite standards, each consisting of upper and lower sections forming continuations and terminating at their inner ends in securing flanges, a plate inter- FRED. K. ZEHE. Witnesses:
