Abstract

PURPOSE:To make uniform the fineness of grated particles and increase an efficiency by providing a protrusive bank, crossing the periphery of a rotary disc at the upperface thereof, higher than a number of grating blades on the surface and by forming the section in which the front face of the rotary direction defines an ascending slope backward side. CONSTITUTION:Foodstuffs previously prepared to be appropriate lumps are fed in a cooking vessel 4 and covered with a lid 9. And then a grating cutter 12 is rotated. The foodstuffs collide with the protrusive bank to splash up, fall down on a disc 15, roll on the disc and at the same time they are grated by the grating blade 17 to be contained in the lower space F. Since the protrusive bank 18 crosses the periphery direction of the disc 15, the foodstuffs at any positions splash up. And the section is formed so that the foodstuffs rise on the front face 18a of the rotary direction of the protrusive bank 18, As a result, the foodstuffs splash both upward and backward against the rotary direction and diagonally fall down on the disc 15 and further, roll on the disc to increase the grating efficiency. Moreover, the foodstuffs are not scattered and the particles are made uniform.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a grating cutter for a cooker, which is a part attached to a cooker such as a food processor, and is used to grate food materials such as radish. .

[Prior Art] A food processor has a rotating drive shaft rotated by a motor that passes through the center of the bottom wall of a cooking container with an open top, and a chopping cutter, a grating cutter, a slicing cutter, and a whisking plate are attached to this drive shaft. A desired food material is cooked by selectively attaching a device such as a device and rotating the device along with a rotational drive shaft within a cooking container.

The grating cutter used in this food processor not only has a large number of grating blades protruding from the top surface of the disc part, but also has a collision part higher than the grating blades located around the circumference of the disc part. It is known what has been set up. (Tokuko Showa 5
(Refer to Japanese Patent No. 9-45377) According to the structure having such a collision part, the radish mass is bounced up at the collision part and dropped onto the disk part again, so that it can be automatically taken down.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the conventional configuration in which the collision part is provided protruding only on the circumference of the disk part as described above, a part of the radish mass that is thrown up,
The fragments are easily scattered by the collision part, and the fragments that are scattered are
It is mixed into the grated portion that is grated with a grating blade. Therefore, there is a problem that the grated particles are not uniform. In addition, since the radish mass is lifted only by the circumference of the disc, the lifting effect is not good, and therefore, there is a problem that the time required to complete grating is relatively long.

An object of the present invention is to obtain a grate cutter for a cooker that can uniformize grated particles and grate efficiently.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, in the grated cutter for a cooker of the present invention, a large number of grated blades are provided on the upper surface of the disc part, which is higher than the grated blades. A protruding strip is formed and extends in a direction intersecting the circumferential direction of the disk portion, and the surface of the protruding strip on the front side in the rotational direction is formed as a sloped surface that ascends toward the rear in the rotational direction. .

[Function] According to the present invention, as the grating cutter rotates, the protruding stripes flip up the lump-like material to be grated supplied onto the disk portion. Since the protrusions extend in a direction intersecting the circumferential direction of the disc part, the above-mentioned flip-up can be performed on the material to be grated at any position on the disc part. The material to be grated that has been thrown up falls onto the upper surface of the disc portion, comes into contact with the grating blade, and is grated. Moreover, since the front surface of the protrusion in the rotational direction is formed with a rising slope, the material to be grated that is thrown up by this slope can be rolled easily after falling onto the upper surface of the disc part. . As mentioned above, the front surface of the protrusion in the rotational direction is formed by an ascending slope.
When the material to be grated that collides with this surface is thrown up, the material is less likely to be crushed and scattered, and the material to be grated can be thrown up smoothly.

[Embodiment] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4.

In Fig. 4, reference numeral 1 denotes the main body case of a food processor that has a built-in motor (not shown), and in the center of the base part 1a, a rotary drive shaft 2 that interlocks with the motor passes vertically through the base part 1a. It is provided.

A draining disc 3 is fixed to this rotary drive shaft 2.

A cooking container 4 is removably attached to the base portion 1a. The cooking container 4 includes a transparent glass container body 5 with an open top surface, and a container stand 6 attached to the lower surface of the bottom wall of the main body 5.
It is formed from. The container stand 6 has at its center an upright cylindrical portion 6a that passes upward through the center of the bottom wall of the container body 5.

An upright cylindrical body 7 is screwed into this cylindrical portion 6a, and a waterproof packing 8 is sandwiched between the lower end of this cylindrical body 7 and the bottom wall. By attaching the cooking container 4 to the platform 1a, the rotary drive shaft 2 passes through the upright cylinder 6a and the upright cylinder 7.

A lid 9 is removably attached to the cooking container 4 to close the top opening thereof. The lid 9 has a fitting part 9a that fits into the upright part 1b of the main case 1 located above the base part 1a, and a downward switch pressing part 10 is integrally provided on the inner surface of the fitting part 9a.

This push part 10 is provided to close a safety switch 11 provided in the upright part 1b when the lid 9 is placed over the cooking container 4 and the upright part 1b. Safety switch 1
Reference numeral 1 is provided separately from a main switch (not shown), and the motor is operated when both of these switches are closed.

A grated cutter 12 made of synthetic resin is attached to the rotary drive shaft 2 and rotated together with the rotary drive shaft 2. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, this cutter 12 has an attachment portion 13, a cover portion 14, a disc portion 15, and a knob portion 1.
6.

The attachment part 13 is removably fitted onto the rotary drive shaft 2 and has a cylindrical shape with an open bottom. On the upper surface of the attachment section 13, a flat plate-like knob section 16 for operating the entire grated cutter 12 for attachment and detachment is integrally formed.

The attachment part 13 is fixed in the axial direction of the rotary drive shaft 2 by a plurality of protrusions (not shown) provided extending in the axial direction on either one of the rotary drive shaft 2 and the attachment part 13, and the other. This is achieved by fitting into a plurality of recesses (not shown) provided extending in the axial direction.

The cover part 14 is integrally formed on the upper part of the mounting part 13, and this cover part 14 covers the upper part of the upright cylindrical body 7.

The disk part 15 has the mounting part 13 and the cover part 14 disposed in its center, and is integrally connected to the lower end of the cover part 14. A large number of grating blades 17 are integrally protruded from the upper surface of the disc portion 15 over the entire surface. These grating blades 17 have a triangular pyramid shape with a surface located on the front side in the direction of rotation of the disc part 15 (indicated by the arrow in FIG. 1) standing approximately perpendicular to the disc part 15. The protrusion height A (see FIG. 2) is approximately 1 length.

A protruding strip 18 is integrally provided on the upper surface of the disc portion 15 . The protruding strip 18 is provided to extend in a direction intersecting the circumferential direction of the disk portion 15, for example, in the radial direction, and a surface 18a on the front side in the rotation direction ascends as it moves toward the rear in the rotation direction of the disk portion 15. It is formed by a slanted surface. Note that the slanted surface is not limited to a flat surface as shown in FIG. 2, but may be formed as a concave curved surface as shown in FIG.
The angle θ of this inclined surface is preferably 45 degrees or less. Moreover, the height B of the protruding strip 18 is formed higher than the grating blade 17, and is approximately 2.5 mm, for example.

When the grated cutter 12 configured as described above is fitted to the rotary drive shaft 2, the grated cutter 12 has its disk portion 15 positioned at a height approximately half the depth of the cooking container 4, as shown in FIG. and is attached to the rotary drive shaft 2. Therefore, the disc part 15 stores lump-like grated materials such as radish lumps above, partitions an upper space E in which these materials can freely bounce upward, and stores grated materials below. The cooking container 4 is separated from the lower space F where the
located within.

In this state, ingredients to be grated, such as radish, carrot, and apple, which have been prepared in advance into chunks of appropriate size, are put into the cooking container 4, and then the lid 9 is placed on the cooking container 4.
When pressed and held, a motor (not shown) is driven and the grating cutter 12 is rotated together with the rotary drive shaft 2, so that the material to be grated can be automatically grated.

That is, when the grating cutter 12 rotates, the material to be grated collides with the protrusion 18 and is thrown up, falls onto the upper surface of the disk portion 15 and rolls, and is simultaneously grated by the grated blade 17. By repeating this grating operation, it is possible to grate to the end. Then, the grated material (grated portion) flows down through the gap between the circumference of the disk portion 15 and the inner circumferential surface of the cooking container 4, and is stored in the lower space F.

By the way, since the protrusions 18 extend in a direction intersecting the circumferential direction of the disc part 15, in the above grating operation, the material to be grated at any position on the disc part 15 is not bounced up. can be carried out.

Therefore, all of the input material to be grated can be reliably thrown up, dropped onto the upper surface of the disk portion 15, rolled, and grated at the same time.

Moreover, since the surface 18a on the front side in the rotational direction of the protruding strip 18 is formed with an upwardly sloped surface, the material to be grated is not directly above the protruding strip 18 or diagonally above the front side in the rotational direction, but diagonally on the rear side in the rotational direction. be thrown upwards. Therefore, the material to be grated can be dropped from an oblique direction onto the upper surface of the disc part 15, and the material to be grated can be easily rolled on the disc part 15.

That is, the grating efficiency can be improved for the above two reasons.

Furthermore, as described above, the front surface 18a of the protrusion 18 in the rotational direction
Since this is a rising slope, when the material to be grated that collides with this surface 18a is thrown up, the material to be grated is less likely to be broken into pieces, and the material to be grated can be thrown up smoothly. Therefore, since the crushed particles are scattered, crushed pieces whose size is not constant are less likely to be mixed into the grated portion, so that the particles of the grated portion can be made uniform.

[Effects of the Invention] In the cooking device grater cutter of the present invention as described above, a large number of grater blades are formed on the upper surface of the disc portion provided on the upper surface and are higher than the grater blades. By providing a protruding strip extending in a direction intersecting the circumferential direction, and forming the front surface of the protruding strip with an inclined surface that ascends toward the rear in the rotating direction, the material to be grated is crushed with less scattering. This allows the particles of the grated portion to be made uniform,
In addition, the material to be grated can be easily thrown up and rolled, and can be grated efficiently.
