Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of kitchen utensil technology, and in particular to a grater with a support. Background Technology

[0002] A grater, also known as a shredder, is a common kitchen tool widely used to shred or slice vegetables, fruits, cheese, and other ingredients. Traditional graters are usually plate-shaped with blades. To use them, the user holds the grater at an angle to the countertop or container opening with one hand, while using the other hand to hold the food and move it back and forth across the grater's surface to complete the shredding process.

[0003] However, existing wire graters have many inconveniences in practical use: First, traditional plate graters require users to hold the device suspended in the air or brace it for extended periods with one hand. This is not only strenuous but also prone to slipping during operation, posing a safety hazard and affecting grating efficiency and uniformity. To address this issue, some graters with fixed supports have emerged on the market. However, these supports typically have a simple structure: either a fixed angle that cannot be adjusted, or a foldable structure that is designed solely for support, increasing the overall complexity and cost.

[0004] Secondly, to protect users' fingers from cuts when food becomes very small, graters are usually equipped with a hand guard. Current technology mainly addresses hand guards in two ways: one is to completely separate the hand guard from the grater body. The drawback of this is that, as a small accessory, the hand guard is easily lost in the kitchen environment, making it difficult to find when needed, causing great inconvenience to users; the other is to integrate the hand guard into the grater body via a sliding rail or similar method. While this design avoids the problem of loss, the complex sliding rail or snap-fit ​​structure easily traps dirt and grime, making cleaning very difficult, especially after processing juicy ingredients, creating unsanitary areas. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a rack-mounted grater that is easy to hang, store, and clean.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the shredder with support designed in this application includes: The shredder body has a storage hole on it; A hand protector, wherein at least a portion of the outline of the hand protector is adapted to the inner outline of the storage hole, so that the hand protector can be detachably stored in the storage hole; A handle, which is pivotally connected to one end of the shredder body, allowing the handle to rotate between a gripping position and a supporting position; In the gripping position, the handle is adapted to be held by a user to operate the grater; in the supporting position, the handle forms an angle with the grater body to support the grater body on a working plane.

[0007] Preferably, in the gripping position, the length direction of the handle is parallel or collinear with the length direction of the grater body.

[0008] Preferably, the storage hole is a suspension hole located at the other end of the shredder body.

[0009] Preferably, the cross-section of the storage hole is elliptical, and the hand guard is made of a flexible material.

[0010] Preferably, the hand guard includes a face that contacts the food to be grated, and a protrusion suitable for being held by the user, wherein the face has a plurality of protruding teeth on the side opposite to the protrusion.

[0011] Preferably, the hand guard is provided with a hook.

[0012] Preferably, when the hand guard is stored in the storage hole, the hook is exposed outside the grater body for suspending the grater.

[0013] Preferably, the hook forms the protrusion.

[0014] Preferably, the end of the handle opposite to the grater body is provided with a supporting inclined surface; in the supporting position, the supporting inclined surface abuts against the working plane.

[0015] Preferably, the grater body includes a grating surface with a cutting edge.

[0016] The shredder holder designed in this application combines the functions of gripping and supporting by pivoting the handle to the shredder body, improving stability and convenience during operation. Simultaneously, the suspension holes on the body serve as storage slots, allowing for the detachable storage of a hand protector that matches its shape. This structure avoids the problem of the hand protector being easily lost as a separate accessory, and its detachable nature facilitates thorough cleaning, solving the hygiene dead spots of traditional integrated designs. Furthermore, the hooks on the hand protector can be used to hang the entire device when stored, achieving a high degree of component integration, simplifying the storage process, and effectively saving storage space.

[0019] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the use of the bracket wire scraper provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0020] The components include: 10 grater body, 11 storage hole, 12 grating surface, 20 hand guard, 21 face, 22 protrusion, 23 protruding teeth, 24 hook, 30 handle, and 31 support slope. Detailed Implementation

[0021] The preferred embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this application.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a shredder with a support, which aims to solve the problems of unstable operation, easy loss of accessories, inconvenient cleaning, and storage in the prior art. The shredder with a support mainly includes three parts: a shredder body 10, a hand guard 20, and a handle 30.

[0023] Specifically, the grater body 10 is a basically long plate-shaped structure. Its upper surface is provided with a grating surface 12 for processing food ingredients. Several sharp blades are distributed on the grating surface 12. At the same time, a storage hole 11 is provided at the end of the grater body 10 away from the handle 30. In this preferred embodiment, the storage hole 11 is the product's suspension hole, and its cross-sectional shape can be designed as an ellipse or a racetrack shape, realizing the reuse of structural functions.

[0024] The main function of the hand protector 20 is to press down small pieces of food to protect the user's fingers during the final stage of the grating operation. To address the storage issue, in this embodiment, the overall or at least part of the outline of the hand protector 20 is adapted to the inner contour of the storage hole 11, allowing the hand protector 20 to be detachably stored in the storage hole 11. This means that the hand protector 20 can be detachably embedded and stored in the storage hole 11 like a plug. When the hand protector 20 is stored in the storage hole 11, the hook 24 is exposed outside the grater body 10. At this time, the entire grater can be conveniently hung on a kitchen rack or hook using the hook 24, achieving compact and integrated storage.

[0025] In practice, to achieve stable assembly and convenient placement, the hand protector 20 is preferably made of a flexible material with a certain degree of elasticity, such as food-grade silicone. Thus, when the hand protector 20 is pressed into the storage hole 11, it undergoes slight elastic deformation, thereby creating an interference fit with the inner wall of the storage hole 11. This allows for reliable fixation through friction, preventing accidental detachment.

[0026] The handle 30 is located at one end of the grater body 10 and is pivotally connected to the body 10, for example, by a pin or an integrally formed flexible hinge. This pivoting structure allows the handle 30 to rotate between at least two functional positions, that is, the handle 30 can rotate between a gripping position and a supporting position.

[0027] Wherein, in the gripping position, such as Figure 1 As shown, the length direction of the handle 30 is approximately parallel or collinear with the length direction of the grater body 10. In this case, the handle 30 is suitable for the user to hold and operate the grater. This state is both the state when the user holds the grater for regular grating operations and the compact state when the product is stored away.

[0028] At the support location, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the handle 30 forms an angle with the grater body 10 to support the grater body 10 on a working surface. When the user requires a more effortless operation, the handle 30 can be flipped downwards to form a preset angle, such as 30-45 degrees, with the grating surface 12 of the grater body 10. In this case, the handle 30 acts as a support, stably supporting one end of the grater body 10 on the working surface, such as a cutting board or table.

[0029] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the hand guard 20 includes a face 21 that contacts the food to be grated, and a protrusion 22 suitable for being held by the user. The face 21 has multiple protruding teeth 23 on the side opposite to the protrusion to effectively grip the food. In specific implementations, to achieve hanging storage of the product, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the hand guard 20 is provided with a hook 24.

[0030] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the hook 24 forms the protrusion 22. This integrates the gripping and suspension functions into the same structure, greatly simplifying the design.

[0031] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, to enhance the stability of the support, a support slope 31 is provided at the end of the handle 30 away from the grater body 10; in the support position, the support slope 31 abuts against the working plane. In this way, in the support position, the support slope 31 abuts against the working plane, providing a stable contact surface and avoiding shaking caused by point contact or line contact.

[0032] The workflow and beneficial effects of the grater described in this embodiment are obvious: When stored, the handle 30 is folded, the hand guard 20 is embedded in the suspension hole, and the entire unit is suspended via the hook 24 on the hand guard 20. All components are integrated and will not be lost. In use, the user can choose to operate it by hand or flip the handle 30 to use it as a support for effortless operation. The hand guard 20 can be removed for use when needed. After use, since the hand guard 20 is completely detachable, the user can separate it from the grater body 10 for thorough cleaning without dead angles, ensuring food hygiene.

[0033] The shredder with a support provided in this application embodiment combines the functions of gripping and supporting by pivoting the handle to the shredder body, improving stability and convenience during operation. Simultaneously, the suspension holes on the body serve as storage slots, allowing for the detachable storage of a hand protector that matches its shape. This structure avoids the problem of the hand protector being easily lost as a separate accessory, and its detachable nature facilitates thorough cleaning, solving the hygiene dead spots of traditional integrated designs. Furthermore, the hooks on the hand protector can be used to hang the entire device when stored, achieving a high degree of component integration, simplifying the storage process, and effectively saving storage space.
