AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing food slicers need to maintain close tolerances between the blade and the knife cover to ensure slice quality, but this requires fine adjustment of the guard ring, and the machine lacking this adjustment is ineffective.
Method used
The integrated mounting component is adopted, through which the relative axial position of the knife drive shaft and the knife cover plate of the knife is defined, tight tolerances are established, and the adjustment requirement for the guard ring is reduced.
Benefits of technology
It enables effective slice performance without fine adjustment of the guardrail, reducing component count and assembly steps, and reducing cost and maintenance complexity.

Abstract
A food slicer comprises: a base; a knife mounted to rotate about an axis relative to the base via a knife drive shaft; and a blade cover plate covering an area of the blade. A monolithic mounting component is provided that defines a first mounting portion to which a knife drive shaft of a knife is mounted and a second mounting portion to which a knife cover plate is mounted so as to establish a relative axial position between the knife and the knife cover plate.
