Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of kitchen tool technology, specifically relating to an adjustable-thickness fruit and vegetable peeler. Background Technology

[0002] A fruit and vegetable slicer is a cutting tool used to cut food (such as potatoes, radishes, etc.) into slices, shreds, or other shapes. For example, Chinese Utility Model Patent Publication No. CN214341974U discloses an adjustable thickness slicer, including a frame with an adjusting plate slidingly within it. The adjusting plate has a slicing groove, and a cutter is fixedly connected to the frame at the corresponding position of the slicing groove, with a clearance fit between the cutter and the slicing groove. The frame has a height adjustment mechanism for supporting the adjusting plate, which includes a rotating shaft, a cam, and a multi-position adjustment component for fixing the cam to the rotating shaft. In this slicer, the thickness is adjustable by rotating the rotating shaft to drive different convex surfaces of the cam to support the adjusting plate. The multi-position adjustment component controls the rotation of the rotating shaft by a predetermined arc to fix the cam, allowing for multiple thickness adjustments of the sliced ​​food. Users can adjust the thickness according to their actual needs, making it convenient to use.

[0003] However, the aforementioned scraper also has shortcomings. The cam can only be fixed when the rotating shaft is rotated to a predetermined arc; otherwise, the cam will rotate automatically, causing a change in the height of the adjusting plate and resulting in errors in the thickness of the sliced ​​food. Essentially, the scraper is limited to a predetermined setting for adjustment, restricting its range of adjustment for food cutting thickness. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a fruit and vegetable peeler with adjustable thickness that is not limited by gear settings.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an adjustable thickness fruit and vegetable peeler, including a frame, a fixed pad and a movable pad on the frame, a blade on the side of the fixed pad near the movable pad, and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the height of the movable pad. There is a gap between the movable pad and the blade. The adjustment mechanism includes a base and an adjustment column on the frame. The base has a threaded hole, and the adjustment column is threaded to the threaded hole. The upper end face of the adjustment column abuts against the lower surface of the movable pad. Rotating the adjustment column can push the end of the movable pad near the blade to move up and down.

[0006] In the above scheme, the adjusting column is screwed on the base, and rotating the adjusting column can push the movable base plate to move up and down on one end of the blade, thereby changing the distance between the upper surface of the movable base plate and the lower surface of the blade. Thus, the cutting thickness of the fruit and vegetable planer on food can be adjusted, and the adjustment operation is convenient. The structure and function of adjusting the thickness by pushing the base plate with the adjusting column. Since the adjusting column is screwed with the base, the adjusting column will not naturally rotate at any position, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of thickness error caused by the natural rotation of the adjusting column. Also, the adjustment of the adjusting column will not be limited by the gear position, making the user's thickness adjustment of food cutting more accurate.

[0007] Further, the movable base plate includes a base plate fixed on the frame body and an elastic plate connected with the base plate. The upper end surface of the adjusting column abuts against the lower surface of the elastic plate, and rotating the adjusting column can push the elastic plate to deform upward. When the adjusting column is rotated forward in use, the adjusting column will move upward along the threaded hole of the base to push the elastic plate to deform upward, thereby reducing the distance between the upper surface of the movable base plate and the lower surface of the blade, which is equivalent to adjusting the cutting thickness of the fruit and vegetable planer on food. When the adjusting column is rotated in reverse, the adjusting column will move downward along the threaded hole of the base, and at the same time, the elastic plate will recover downward, thereby increasing the distance between the upper surface of the movable base plate and the lower surface of the blade, which is equivalent to adjusting the cutting thickness of the fruit and vegetable planer on food.

[0008] Further, the elastic plate and the base plate are an integral structure to ensure the stability of the connection between the elastic plate and the base plate. The connection between the elastic plate and the base plate has a fracture opening, which can make the elastic plate deform better, so that the adjusting column can more easily push the elastic plate to deform upward, and the adjustment is more flexible.

[0009] Further, the upper end of the adjusting column is provided with a rubber pad, and the upper surface of the rubber pad abuts against the lower surface of the movable base plate. In this scheme, the adjusting column contacts the movable base plate through the rubber pad, which can increase the contact area between the two, and the rubber pad will better fit with the movable base plate, so that the adjusting column can more easily push the movable base plate to move up and down.

[0010] Further, the upper surface of the rubber pad is provided with a groove, and the lower surface of the movable base plate is provided with a protrusion corresponding to the groove position. The protrusion of the movable base plate cooperates with the groove of the rubber pad, which can improve the connection stability of the rubber pad and the movable base plate, and prevent the rubber pad from moving left and right along the lower surface of the movable base plate.

[0011] Further, the upper end of the adjusting column is provided with an annular groove, and the rubber pad has a U-shaped plug. The U-shaped plug of the rubber pad is inserted into the annular groove of the adjusting column, which can improve the connection stability of the rubber pad and the adjusting column, and facilitate the disassembly and assembly operation of the rubber pad.

[0012] Further, the lower end of the adjusting column is provided with a column cap, the column cap is located below the base, and cap rods are arranged on opposite sides of the column cap, so that the adjusting column can be conveniently rotated through the cap rods, and the adjusting operation is more convenient.

[0013] Further, the end of the frame body is provided with a handle, the handle can be conveniently gripped to cut and use the fruit and vegetable planer, and the use is more convenient.

[0014] Further, the fruit and vegetable planer further comprises a hollow structure cartridge, the cartridge is located above the movable base plate, and the cartridge can better fix food by being additionally arranged.

[0015] Further, the cartridge is provided with a plug, the bottom of the plug is provided with an anti-skid convex column, the cartridge can be sealed by the plug when not in use, and the cartridge can be pressed by the anti-skid convex column of the plug when in use, so that the food is more stably fixed, and the cutting operation is more convenient.

[0016] The fruit and vegetable planer can adjust the cutting thickness of the fruit and vegetable planer by rotating the adjusting column to push the elastic plate to deform, so that the distance between the upper surface of the movable base plate and the lower surface of the blade is changed, the adjusting operation is convenient, and the adjusting column is not naturally rotated under the action of no external force, so that the adjusting column is not naturally rotated at any position, the phenomenon of thickness error caused by natural rotation of the adjusting column is avoided, the adjusting range is wide, and the technical problem that the existing adjustable thickness planer is limited by the gear position is solved.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present application will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments, and in conjunction with the figures:

[0029] Embodiment one

[0030] As Figure 1 , 2As shown, the embodiment provides a fruit and vegetable slicer with adjustable thickness, which comprises a frame body 1, a fixed base plate 2 and a movable base plate 3 arranged on the frame body 1, a blade 21 arranged at the rear side of the fixed base plate 2, and an adjusting mechanism for adjusting the height of the movable base plate 3, and the movable base plate 3 has a gap with the blade 21. In use, the user can hold the frame body 1 with one hand and place the food to be cut on the movable base plate 3 with the other hand, and then push the food forward so that the food passes through the blade 21 and is cut into pieces by the blade 21 and discharged from the gap between the movable base plate 3 and the blade 21, thereby completing the cutting process of the food, which is simple and convenient to operate.

[0031] As shown in Figure 1 、 3 , 4, the adjusting mechanism comprises a base 41 arranged on the frame body 1 and an adjusting column 42, the middle position of the base 41 is provided with a threaded hole 410, the outer side of the adjusting column 42 is provided with an external thread which is threadedly connected with the threaded hole 410, rotating the adjusting column 42 can make the adjusting column 42 move up and down along the threaded hole 410, and the upper end surface of the adjusting column 42 abuts against the lower surface of the movable base plate 3, so that rotating the adjusting column 42 can push the front end of the movable base plate 3 to move up and down.

[0032] The fruit and vegetable slicer of the embodiment can change the distance between the upper surface of the movable base plate 3 and the lower surface of the blade 21 by threadedly connecting the adjusting column 42 with the base 41 and rotating the adjusting column 42 to push the front end of the movable base plate 3 to move up and down, so that the thickness of the food cut out is different when the distance between the upper surface of the movable base plate 3 and the lower surface of the blade 21 is different, which can adjust the cutting thickness of the fruit and vegetable slicer and the adjusting operation is convenient.

[0033] In addition, the structure for adjusting the thickness by pushing the movable base plate 3 with the adjusting column 42 can avoid the phenomenon of thickness error caused by the natural rotation of the adjusting column 42 because the adjusting column 42 is threadedly connected with the base 41 and will not naturally rotate at any position, and can also make the adjustment of the adjusting column 42 not be limited by the gear position, so that the user can adjust the cutting thickness of the food more accurately.

[0034] Embodiment Two

[0035] The embodiment is a further improvement on the basis of the fruit and vegetable slicer with adjustable thickness of embodiment one, and the improvement is that, as shown in Figure 1 、 2 , the movable base plate 3 comprises a base plate 31 fixed on the frame body 1 and an elastic plate 32 connected to the front side of the base plate 31, the upper end surface of the adjusting column 42 abuts against the lower surface of the elastic plate 32, and rotating the adjusting column 42 can push the elastic plate 32 to deform upward.

[0036] Specifically, the elastic plate 32 and the base plate 31 are in an integrated structure to ensure the stability of the connection between the elastic plate 32 and the base plate 31. The elastic plate 32 and the base plate 31 are made of stainless steel, which has good elasticity, so that the deformation of the elastic plate 32 is better, and the durability is good. The connection between the elastic plate 32 and the base plate 31 has a fracture 33, which can make the elastic plate 32 deform better, so that the adjusting column 42 can more easily push the elastic plate 32 to deform upward, and the adjustment is more flexible.
