Embodiment Construction

[0104] Referring first to Figures 1-15A of the drawings, there is shown a first food processing apparatus embodying the present invention in the form of a salad dehydrator 10 comprising a round bowl 100 serving as A housing with a circular top cover 110; a circular basket 200 as an operating accessory housed in the bowl 100 and supported for rotation around a vertical central axis X; and a drive mechanism 300, the The drive mechanism 300 is supported by the lid 110 for rotating the basket 200 to shake water from the salad contained in the basket 200 .

[0105] The basket 200 can be closed by its own circular lid 210 and comprises a row of longitudinal ribs 201 on its inner surface. The lid 210 has eight depending lugs 211 along its periphery for laterally engaging the upper ends of the basket ribs 201 (see FIGS. 5A and 5B ) so that when the basket 200 is closed, the basket 200 can Rotated by the cover 210 .

[0106] Basket 200 with lid 210 is slightly smaller than bowl 100 w...

Abstract

A food processing device (10) has a housing (100) with a lid (110), a rotatable attachment [e.g. a basket (200) or beater (200'')] therein, and a drive mechanism (300) in the lid (110) for rotating the attachment (200) to process food in the housing (100). The drive mechanism (300) has a manual actuator (310) and a gear train (320) for transmitting drive from the actuator (310) to rotate the attachment (200). The actuator (310) lies on an outer surface (116) of the lid (110) and is movable along the lid surface (116) in opposite directions between two positions to rotate the attachment (200) in one single direction. A ratchet assembly (400) in drive engagement with the gear train (320) enables transmission of rotational drive only in one single direction. A braking mechanism (500) is included for braking the attachment (200), which has a manual operator (310) and two braking shoes (510 & 520) for movement by the operator (310) to brake the attachment (200) by friction.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a manually operated food processing device which operates using a rotary motion. Background technique [0002] Food processing devices of this type, such as food dehydrators and mixers, are commonly used in kitchens for processing food, such as dry food (salad or vegetables) or mixing condiments or sauces therefor. In a typical construction, they include: a housing with a cover; an operating accessory, such as a basket or stirrer, supported for rotation within the housing; and a drive mechanism for rotating the accessory to process food. The drive mechanism typically has a handle on the crank for turning by the user. [0003] These food processing devices often require the use of both hands of the user. Although the rotation of the basket or agitator can be accelerated by using a higher gear ratio gear train, the rotation of the handle is still cumbersome. Contents of the invention [0004] The present invention s...
