Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to food processing appliances, and in particular to a slicer for slicing and shredding. Background Technology

[0002] When cooking, ingredients may need to be cut into chunks, slices, or shreds. These processing methods require a high level of knife skill and are less effective. Therefore, more and more people prefer to use a slicer to assist in the process. A slicer, also called a grater or shredder, mainly consists of a handheld grating board and grating blades mounted on the grating board. The user holds the grating board firmly with one hand and grasps the food with the other, pressing the food firmly against the grating board and scraping it back and forth across the grater blades to cut the food into the desired slices or shreds. However, as the volume of the food gradually decreases during processing, the remaining small portion of food is not only difficult to hold but can also easily scratch the hand. In view of this, many people use hand guards to assist in slicing. Existing hand guards include a fork plate with a fork attached and a sleeve that can move relative to the fork plate. When using it, the fork is used to hold the food in place, then it is pressed against the slicer, and the sleeve is used to gradually press the food towards the slicer to process it. This can effectively protect users from hand injuries, but these hand guards still have shortcomings. For example, a relatively large amount of force must be applied to accurately press the food onto the grater, and they can only be used for food with moderate hardness, such as potatoes. Otherwise, when the guard presses down on the food, it is easy to crush the food, making it impossible to slice effectively, and the crushed food will be difficult to clean from the fork. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a hand guard device for a slicer that is more convenient to operate and more applicable, and a slicer using such a hand guard device, so as to reduce the difficulty of operation and meet the processing needs of different ingredients.

[0004] The slicer hand guard device of this utility model includes a guard plate with a food placement opening in the middle and a pressure plate opposite to the food placement opening; the pressure plate includes a connecting plate hinged to the guard plate and several rotating plates that are sequentially hinged to the connecting plate.

[0005] The planer described in this utility model includes a wiping plate equipped with planer blades and a planer hand guard device as described above.

[0006] The present invention relates to a hand guard device for a slicer and a slicer. The guard plate has an opening in the middle connecting both sides, which serves as a food placement opening. This opening is opposite to the slicer blades and is used to place food. A pressure plate is opposite to the food placement opening and presses the food onto the slicer's grating plate. The pressure plate includes a connecting plate and a rotating plate. The connecting plate is hinged to the guard plate. The rotating plate can be a single piece hinged to the connecting plate, or multiple rotating plates can be hinged sequentially, with one rotating plate hinged to the connecting plate. Besides connecting the guard plate and the rotating plate, the connecting plate also prevents food from falling out of the food placement opening and protects the user's hands. The rotating plate can rotate to different angles relative to the slicer's grating plate, thus stably pressing the food onto the slicer's grating plate. When processing food, the user holds the guard plate and pressure plate and presses them onto the slicer's grating plate, then scrapes the food back and forth across the slicer blades. As the food is cut and its volume decreases, the connecting plate and rotating plate gradually align with the food placement opening, thus completing the processing of the remaining food and preventing the user's hands from contacting the slicer blades. This slicer's hand protection device is not only convenient but also effectively protects the user. The design of the connecting plate and rotating plate also allows it to be used for different types and sizes of food, greatly expanding its applicability and meeting the processing needs of various ingredients.

[0007] Preferably, two rotating plates are hinged sequentially on the connecting plate of the pressure plate.

[0008] Preferably, a protective plate is provided around the perimeter of the food placement opening, and the inner side of the pressure plate contacts the portion of the protective plate within the range of the protective plate.

[0009] Preferably, the inner side of the pressure plate is provided with a grid that allows food placement openings to pass through.

[0010] Preferably, the guard plate is mounted on both sides of the grating plate of the grater and can move along the grating plate.

[0011] Preferably, at least one rotating plate is provided with a handle for hand grip.

[0012] Preferably, a guide assembly that can move relative to each other is installed between the two sides of the wiping plate and the two sides of the guard plate.

[0013] Preferably, the guide assembly includes guide strips that are disposed on both sides of the wiping plate and protrude therefrom, and clamping parts that extend from both sides of the guard plate, the clamping parts being bracket-shaped and fitted onto the guide strips.

[0014] Preferably, the guide assembly includes guide grooves disposed on both sides of the wiping plate, and insert plates disposed on both sides of the guard plate and movable within the guide grooves.

[0015] The hand guard device and the slicer itself improve the convenience and comfort of food processing and meet the processing needs of various food ingredients. Attached Figure Description

[0023] This utility model proposes a hand guard device for a slicer.

[0024] The slicer hand guard device of this embodiment includes a guard plate 1 with a food placement opening 11 in the middle and a pressure plate 2 opposite to the food placement opening; the pressure plate includes a connecting plate 21 hinged to the guard plate and a plurality of rotating plates 22 sequentially hinged to the connecting plate.

[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the guard plate has an opening in the middle connecting the two sides, which is the food placement opening. It is opposite to the shaving blade on the slicer and is used to place the food. The pressure plate is opposite to the food placement opening and can press the food onto the shaving plate of the slicer. Figure 1 , 3 The pressure plate in the slicer consists of a connecting plate and two rotating plates. The connecting plate is hinged to the guard plate, and one rotating plate is hinged to the connecting plate, while the other rotating plate is hinged to the first rotating plate. The connecting plate, besides connecting the guard plate and the rotating plates, also prevents food from falling out of the food placement area and protects the user's hands. The two rotating plates allow for easy switching between different positions, stably pressing the food onto the slicer's grating plate, and reduce the operational inconvenience, structural complexity, and high damage rate associated with too many rotating plates. When processing food, the user holds the guard plate and pressure plate and presses them onto the slicer's grating plate, then scrapes the food back and forth across the slicer blades. As the food is cut and its volume decreases, the connecting plate and rotating plates gradually overlap with the food placement area, thus completing the processing of the remaining food and preventing the user's hands from contacting the slicer blades. This slicer's hand guard is not only convenient but also effectively protects the user. The design of the connecting plate and rotating plate also makes it suitable for different types and sizes of ingredients, greatly expanding its applicability and meeting the processing needs of different ingredients.

[0026] The aforementioned hand guard device for the slicer includes a guard plate 12 surrounding the food placement opening 11. The inner side of the pressure plate 2 contacts the guard plate portion within the guard plate area. This not only prevents food from falling but also prevents the pressure plate from moving excessively and contacting the slicer's grating plate, thus avoiding damage to the slicer blade. However, this increases the gap between the pressure plate and the slicer's grating plate, making it impossible to fully process the food. Therefore, a grid plate 23 that can pass through the food placement opening 11 can be provided on the inner side of the pressure plate 2. By controlling the thickness of the grid plate, the food can be pressed against the slicer's grating plate to a greater extent, ensuring complete processing. Figure 2 , 3 As shown, grid plates 23 are provided on the connecting plate 21 and all rotating plates 22. These grid plates are set with appropriate thickness, length and width so that they can press down the food while not hindering the connecting plate and rotating plate from rotating to different angles.

[0027] The aforementioned hand guard device for the grater has guard plates 1 mounted on both sides of the grater's grating plate and movable along the grating plate. This prevents the hand guard device from falling off, and allows the user to simply press the pressure plate while processing food, eliminating the need to spread their palms wide to simultaneously hold both the guard plate and the pressure plate. This effectively improves the convenience and comfort of operation. Furthermore, at least one of the rotating plates 22 is equipped with a handle 24 for hand gripping, further enhancing operational convenience.

[0028] This utility model also proposes a slicer.

[0029] The slicer of this embodiment includes a grating plate 3 equipped with a slicer blade 4, a guard plate 1 with a food placement opening 11 in the middle, and a pressure plate 2 opposite to the food placement opening; the pressure plate includes a connecting plate 21 hinged to the guard plate, and several rotating plates 22 sequentially hinged to the connecting plate.

[0030] like Figure 4 , 5 As shown, a relatively movable guide assembly is installed between the two sides of the wiping plate 3 and the two sides of the guard plate 1, allowing the hand guard device to move stably along the wiping plate, preventing it from falling off, increasing user convenience, and reducing labor intensity. The guide assembly can be a guide groove on both sides of the wiping plate 3, and an insert plate on both sides of the guard plate 1 that can be engaged and moved within the guide groove; or it can be as follows... Figure 2 , 5 As shown, it includes guide strips 31 that are set on both sides of the wiping plate 3 and protrude therefrom, and clamping parts 13 that extend from both sides of the guard plate 1. The clamping parts are bracket-shaped and fit on the guide strips. This not only ensures working stability, but also facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the hand guard device and the wiping plate. When disassembling the hand guard device, the guard plate can be moved along the guide strip to the end and then removed.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
