AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is an egg peeler device that includes a peeler portion, a cracker portion, an impact end, and a handle. The peeler portion has a concave surface that matches the shape of an egg, while the cracker portion has a concave surface with a cracker blade embedded within it. The impact end is connected to the cracker portion. The handle is located between the peeler and cracker portions. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a device that allows for easy and efficient peeling of eggs without causing any damage to the egg's shape or quality.

Problems solved by technology

While at times this may be a simple task, often the shell does not remove easily, creating a situation where a multitude of shell fragments are simultaneously stuck on the egg and scattered about.
While not being bound to any particular theory, it has been said that fresh eggs represent more of a challenge to peel than older eggs due to an ever expanding air space in the egg between the shell and the white.

Embodiment Construction

[0019]An Egg Peeler Device is described and depicted by way of this specification and the attached drawings. For a general understanding of the present invention, reference is made to the drawings. In the drawings, like reference numerals have been used throughout to designate identical elements.

[0020]FIG. 1 is a top perspective view of the Egg Peeler Device that shows the general overall appearance and features of the device. The Egg Peeler Device 100 has a peeler portion 101 that has a concave surface that generally conforms to an egg along the eggs longitudinal axis. The peeler portion 101 is thin, and in some embodiments is thinner at the edges than toward the center, creating a taper that allows for easy removal of an eggshell from an egg. The peeler portion as such is sharp for its intended purpose, but with a proper choice of materials, such as the various plastics described and suggested herein, represents little risk of harm to the user. Looking now at the opposing end of t...

Abstract

An Egg Peeler Device is disclosed that has an end that facilitates ease of cracking of an egg such as a hard boiled egg through a novel blade arrangement, and an end that facilitates ease of removal of the cracked egg shell through an eggshell peeler arrangement. A handle is provided between each end for ease of use.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the Invention[0001]This invention relates generally to food preparation utensils, and more specifically to an egg peeler device.2. Description of Related Art[0002]Hard boiled eggs require removal of their hard shell prior to consumption or additional preparation. While at times this may be a simple task, often the shell does not remove easily, creating a situation where a multitude of shell fragments are simultaneously stuck on the egg and scattered about. While not being bound to any particular theory, it has been said that fresh eggs represent more of a challenge to peel than older eggs due to an ever expanding air space in the egg between the shell and the white. Of course most consumers wish to purchase the freshest eggs possible irregardless of the peeling challenges that may lie ahead. Traditional egg peeling techniques involve striking the hard boiled egg on a hard surface or striking it with a spoon, and then removing the shell by hand—...
