Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bread slicers, specifically a bread slicer. Background Technology
[0002] A bread slicer is a device specifically designed to slice bread into even, thin slices. It is ingeniously designed, has an attractive exterior that meets hygiene standards, and uses sharp blades to cut bread quickly and evenly with minimal crumbs and neat cuts. This machine is not only suitable for home use but is also an essential piece of equipment for commercial establishments such as bakeries and cake shops. Its emergence has greatly simplified the bread processing process, improved production efficiency, and made sliced bread a common food on family tables in the industrial age.
[0003] However, existing bread slicers (such as...) Figure 12 The following problems exist:
[0004] 1. Its handle has an arc design, with the upper end of the handle (towards...) Figure 12 For example, if the handle is too close to the blade holder, the rotating handle can easily interfere with the guide frame. More importantly, because the handle glove is installed inside the handle's hole, the line of force is linear during hand cranking. The curved handle experiences force transmission loss, which is transmitted to area B of the curved handle (e.g.,...). Figure 12 The force is relatively small, and the force is mainly concentrated in the area where the glove is installed ( ). Figure 12 Area A of the casting makes the end of the handle, i.e., the area of the glove mounting hole, prone to chipping. Figure 12 Area A, which is the mounting hole area, has poor load-bearing capacity due to the mounting holes. In addition, the force is concentrated here, making it more prone to cracking.
[0005] 2. Because the bottom of the existing blade holder is fixed at two points (e.g. Figure 11 It has poor stability, requires a lot of force to crank by hand, and the blade holder is prone to loosening and shaking.
[0006] 3. The blade of the sliced bread is exposed on the outside (e.g., Figure 12 It is easy to touch the blade, contaminate the blade, and get injured by touching the blade.
[0007] 4. The knob's rotating bar is linear (e.g., ...). Figure 10 It is not ergonomic, lacks a point of force for the fingers, and is difficult to rotate and easy to slip. Utility Model Content
[0008] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a bread slicer. Through three triangular first mounting holes and corresponding internal bolts, the load-bearing capacity of the blade holder and the stability of its position when rotating the handle can be improved, preventing the blade holder from loosening. Furthermore, a recessed rotating bar is provided at the upper end of the knob, and both the front and rear ends of the upper outer part of the rotating bar are provided with corresponding directional arrows. The recessed rotating bar facilitates manual turning by the user, and the pointer provided by the arrows allows for reference during rotation and reduces effort. Additionally, a storage groove is recessed inside the blade holder towards the blade position, which facilitates the storage of blades in both rotating and stationary states, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a bread slicer, including a base, with guide plates and a blade holder respectively provided on both sides of the upper end of the base, blades inside the blade holder, and a storage groove recessed on the side of the blade holder facing the blades. Three first mounting holes are provided on the other side of the lower end of the blade holder facing the base, and the three first mounting holes are arranged in a triangle at the lower end of the blade holder. A handle is provided at the front end of the blade holder, and the handle is perpendicular to the blade holder. The three first mounting holes can provide stable support, improve the stability of the blade holder after installation, and prevent the blade holder from shaking.
[0010] Preferably, the main body of the handle is linear.
[0011] Preferably, the guide plate has a slider at its front end, a movable rail inside the slider, and a knob at the upper end of the movable rail. Turning the knob can easily drive the third gear at the lower end to rotate.
[0012] Preferably, the knob has a strip-shaped rotating bar at the middle of its upper end, and the rotating bar and the knob are an integral structure. Both sides of the outer side of the rotating bar are concave arc-shaped towards the middle position of the rotating bar. The concave rotating bar makes it easy for the user to manually turn it, and the pointer can be referenced when rotating, and the rotation is less strenuous.
[0013] Preferably, indicator arrows are welded to both sides of the upper end of the swivel bar.
[0014] Preferably, the first mounting hole penetrates the base and is embedded inside the blade holder, and both the front and rear ends of the upper outer part of the swivel are provided with corresponding direction-indicating arrows, with the direction indicated by the arrows.
[0015] Preferably, a first gear is provided at the center position of the blade facing the blade holder, and the first gear is fixedly connected to the blade by bolts. A second gear is provided at the upper end of the outside of the first gear, and the outside of the second gear is meshed with the outside of the first gear. This meshing connection facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the blade, as well as the rotation and cutting of the blade.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0017] 1. This utility model sets the main part of the handle to be straight, which makes the force transmission more even. The force is distributed throughout the straight handle and will not concentrate the force in the mounting hole area of the handle glove. It replaces the traditional curved handle and avoids the defect of uneven force distribution and cracking at the mounting hole caused by the traditional curved handle. In addition, the straight handle of this utility model can increase the distance between the handle and the blade holder, providing more room for the guide frame to move. It avoids the protruding guide frame from affecting the normal rotation of the handle when the knob is rotated to adjust the guide frame and guide plate laterally, and avoids interference between the adjusting and moving guide frame and the rotating handle.
[0018] 2. The base of this utility model has a first mounting hole for connecting bolts extending through and through the lower end of the handle. There are three first mounting holes arranged in a triangle, which improves stability. The blade holder is fixed by passing bolts through the three first mounting holes and having the bolts inside the first mounting holes embedded in the lower end of the blade holder. The three triangular first mounting holes and the corresponding bolts inside can improve the load-bearing capacity of the blade holder and the stability of the blade holder position when rotating the handle, thus preventing the blade holder from loosening.
[0019] 3. This utility model features a recessed rotating bar at the top of the knob, with corresponding directional arrows at both ends of the upper outer part of the rotating bar. The recessed rotating bar allows the user to easily turn it manually, making it easier to determine the point of force. Combined with the direction provided by the directional arrows, the user can refer to the directional arrows when rotating and it is less strenuous.
[0020] 4. This utility model has a storage groove recessed inside the blade holder towards the blade position. The reserved storage groove can easily store the blade in both rotating and stationary states. The blade is clamped between the first connecting piece and the connecting block by the through bolt. The blade holder can directly wrap and protect the outside of the blade and the second and first gears that drive the blade, avoiding the situation of accidental injury to the operator caused by the traditional blade being located outside the blade holder.
[0021] 5. This utility model has guide plates of different shapes connected to one end of the slider, which makes the whole device have a variety of shape elements and more beautiful. Attached Figure Description

[0037] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0038] Example 1, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a bread slicer of this embodiment includes a base 1. A guide plate 2 is provided on one side of the upper end of the base 1. A scale bar is provided on the front of the guide plate 2 to indicate the adjustment distance of the guide plate 2. A blade holder 5 is provided on the other side of the upper end of the base 1. A blade 8 is provided at one end inside the blade holder 5. One side of the bread moves towards the blade holder 5 while adhering to the guide plate 2. After moving towards the blade holder 5, the bread comes into contact with the rotating blade 8, and the contact with the rotating blade 8 achieves bread slicing.
[0039] The blade holder 5 has a recessed storage groove 12 on the side facing the blade 8. The storage groove 12 can wrap the blade 8. The first gear 13, the second gear 15 and the connecting block 14 used to drive the blade 8 can store the storage groove 12.
[0040] To improve the stability of the blade holder 5, a first mounting hole 16 is provided on the other side of the lower end of the blade holder 5 facing the base 1. The first mounting hole 16 penetrates the base 1 and is embedded inside the blade holder 5. Bolts can be inserted through the reserved first mounting hole 16, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the bolt is threaded into the first mounting hole 16 recessed inside the second gear 15, and the blade holder 5 can be fixed by the bolt passing through and being inserted.
[0041] In addition, such as Figure 4 As shown, there are three first mounting holes 16. The three first mounting holes 16 are arranged in a triangle at the lower end of the blade holder 5. The blade holder 5 can be fixed after the bolts are inserted through the triangular distribution of the first mounting holes 16. The triangular first mounting holes 16 and the bolts inside the first mounting holes 16 can improve the stability of the blade holder 5 installation.
[0042] A first gear 13 is provided at the center of the blade 8 facing the blade holder 5, and the first gear 13 is fixedly connected to the blade 8 by bolts. A second gear 15 is provided at the upper end of the outside of the first gear 13, and the outside of the second gear 15 is meshed with the outside of the first gear 13. By driving the second gear 15 to rotate, the first gear 13 can drive the blade 8 to rotate, and the rotation of the blade 8 can cut bread.
[0043] A first connecting piece 11 is provided at the front end of the blade 8. A connecting block 14 is provided on the outside of the first gear 13 facing the blade holder 5, and the connecting block 14 is welded and fixed to the blade holder 5. The connecting block 14 and the first connecting piece 11 are fixedly connected by bolts. The bolts pass through the first connecting piece 11 and drive the first connecting piece 11 to move toward the connecting block 14. After the bolts are embedded in the connecting block 14, the rotatable first gear 13 and the blade 8 are fixed between the first connecting piece 11 and the connecting block 14. The first connecting piece 11 and the connecting block 14 are not in close contact with the first gear 13 and the blade 8, but only to prevent the first gear 13 and the blade 8 from falling off and affecting the rotation of the first gear 13 and the blade 8.
[0044] Furthermore, a handle 6 is provided at the front end of the blade holder 5. The main body of the handle 6 is straight. The handle glove 30 is rotatably installed in the mounting hole at one end of the handle 6. In practice, the straight handle 6 distributes the force more evenly, and the force is not too concentrated in the mounting hole area of the handle glove 30. The force is distributed along the straight handle 6, thus avoiding the problem of the mounting hole area of the handle glove 30 being congested due to force concentration, as is the case with traditional curved handles 6. Figure 12 In the case of cracking in area A, the handle 6 is inserted through the blade holder 5 and welded to the center of the second gear 15. By rotating the handle 6, the second gear 15 can be directly driven to rotate, thus actively driving the blade 8 to rotate.
[0045] In this embodiment, the main body of the handle 6 is designed as a straight line. This ensures that the main body of the handle 6 is subjected to uniform force when shaken. The main body of the handle 6 is nearly parallel to the blade holder 5, and the distance between the main body of the handle 6 and the blade holder 5 is increased. The straight main body of the handle 6 provides more room for movement for the guide plate 2 and the guide frame 7. This avoids the defects of the traditional curved handle 6, where the different thicknesses of the main body lead to uneven force distribution and easy breakage. Also, the closer end to the pivot is to the blade holder 5, which causes interference between the handle 6 and the guide frame 7 when the guide frame 7 is adjusted to the outermost edge (when the distance between the guide frame 7 and the blade holder 5 is the farthest).
[0046] It is worth mentioning that a guide frame 7 is provided at the front end of the guide plate 2, and the guide frame 7 is welded and fixed to the guide plate 2. The guide frame 7 extends from the front end of the guide plate 2 to the front end of the blade holder 5. The welded guide frame 7 can adjust its lateral position along with the guide plate 2. The bread cut by the blade 8 can be guided by the guide frame 7. The guide frame 7 can protect the bread and prevent it from spreading to both sides due to its own weight and inertia, and prevent the bread from colliding with the handle 6 during the rotation process.
[0047] To facilitate the lateral adjustment of the guide plate 2 and guide frame 7, and to adjust the distance between the guide plate 2 and the blade 8 to adapt to different cutting requirements, a slider 3 is provided at the front end of the guide plate 2, and the slider 3 is welded and fixed to the guide plate 2. A movable rail 18 for connecting the knob 4 and the third gear 17 is provided through the inside of the slider 3. A knob 4 is provided at the upper end of the movable rail 18, and a third gear 17 is provided at the lower end of the movable rail 18. The center of the third gear 17 is welded and fixed to the center of the knob 4, and the third gear 17 can be directly driven to rotate by the knob 4.
[0048] In addition, such as Figure 5 As shown, a transmission bar 19 is provided on one side of the outer side of the third gear 17, and the side of the transmission bar 19 facing the third gear 17 is provided with a tooth groove. The transmission bar 19 is meshed with the outer side of the third gear 17 through the tooth groove. The transmission bar 19 is welded and fixed to the lower end of the slider 3. By rotating the position of the third gear 17, the transmission bar 19 can be moved laterally through the meshing connection.
[0049] To limit the transmission bar 19 and fix the slider 3 so that the slider 3 can move laterally on the upper end of the base 1, a connecting rod 26 is provided at the center of the lower end of the third gear 17, and the connecting rod 26 is rotatably connected to the center of the lower end of the third gear 17. A plate-shaped second connecting piece 20 is provided at the lower end of the connecting rod 26. A second mounting hole 22 for connection and fixation is provided inside the base 1 facing the position of the second connecting piece 20. The connecting rod 26 passes through the second connecting piece 20 and extends into the second mounting hole 22. The lower end of the second connecting piece 20 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the base 1 with glue. When fixing the third gear 17 and the upper knob 4, after the connecting rod 26 passes through the second connecting piece 20 and is embedded in the second mounting hole 22, the connecting rod 26 and the upper third gear 17 are fixed by rotating the nut to the position of the connecting rod 26 and fitting the second connecting piece 20.
[0050] It is worth mentioning that when rotating the nut to the outer wall of the connecting rod 26, it is necessary to additionally pinch and fix the rotatable connecting rod 26. The connecting rod 26 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the third gear 17 in order to prevent the rotation of the third gear 17 from being affected after the connecting rod 26 is fixed.
[0051] In order to improve the stability of the lateral movement of the slider 3, guide bars 21 are provided on one side of the third gear 17 and the other side of the transmission bar 19. The guide bars 21 are welded and fixed to the upper end of the second connecting piece 20. The guide bars 21 on the other side of the transmission bar 19 are attached to the transmission bar 19. The attachment of the copper drum transmission bar 19 and the guide bars 21 can restrict the movement trajectory of the slider 3, so that the slider 3 can only move laterally.
[0052] To make it easier to turn knob 4, such as Figure 13 As shown, a strip-shaped rotating bar 9 is provided at the middle position of the upper end of the knob 4, and the rotating bar 9 and the knob 4 are an integral structure. The protruding rotating bar 9 makes it easy to turn the knob 4. The outer sides of the rotating bar 9 are concave arcs facing the middle position of the rotating bar 9, which fits the fingers better and has a clear point of force application for the fingers. The concave arc makes it easy to turn the rotating bar 9 and rotate the knob 4 at the lower end, making operation more convenient and less strenuous. It avoids the defects of traditional straight rotating bars 9 that slip and require more effort when rotating. The upper ends of the rotating bar 9 are provided with indicator arrows 10 on both sides, and the indicator arrows 10 are welded and fixed to the rotating bar 9. The reserved indicator arrows 10 make it easy for the user to know the current orientation.
[0053] To improve the stability of the base 1, a first suction cup 25 is provided at each of the four corners of the lower end of the base 1. The first suction cup 25 is fixedly connected to the base 1 by bolts. The bolts make it easy to install and remove the first suction cup 25. The fixed first suction cup 25 can temporarily fix the entire bread slicer.
[0054] In this embodiment, the upper part of the outer side of the guide piece 2 is wavy, and the wavy guide piece 2 is like a peaceful force that transcends boundaries.
[0055] Example 2, as Figure 6 As shown, the upper part of the guide piece 2 is arc-shaped, which symbolizes love and embrace. The circular guide piece 2 is like carrying a gentle power.
[0056] Example 3, as Figure 7 As shown, the outer upper part of the guide plate 2 is shaped like two intersecting straight lines. The angle between the two straight lines and the knob 4 is an obtuse angle. The intersecting straight lines are a metaphor for the harmony between the blade and the bread cutting motion, the unwavering emotional connection, and ancient wisdom and spiritual enlightenment.
[0057] Example 4, as Figure 8 As shown, the upper part of the outer side of the guide plate 2 is shaped like an eagle, expressing the extraordinary strength and courage of an eagle spreading its wings, the pursuit of freedom and independence, and the vision and insight of foresight.
[0058] Example 5, as Figure 9As shown, a fixing plate 23 is provided on one side of the base 1. A hanging hole 24 is provided through the inside of the fixing plate 23. The pre-reserved hanging hole 24 makes it easy to hang on the wall and for the first suction cup 25 to be attached to the wall for use. In this embodiment, the upper part of the guide plate 2 can present any shape mentioned in Embodiments 1 to 4.
[0059] Example 6, as Figure 14 As shown, an extension plate 27 is provided at one end of the base 1. The extension plate 27 is connected to the base 1 by a hinge 28. A second suction cup 29 is provided on both sides of the lower end of the extension plate 27, and the second suction cup 29 is fixedly connected to the extension plate 27 by bolts. The hinge 28 facilitates the flipping of the extension plate 27. When the extension plate 27 is not needed, it can be flipped onto the base 1. The base 1 has enough space for the extension plate 27 to be flipped. If it is necessary to increase the stability of the entire device, the extension plate 27 can be flipped off the base 1 and fixed by the second suction cup 29. The extension plate 27 can increase the work surface and also increase the stability of the device.
[0060] Working principle: When using the device to cut bread, the position of the rotating bar 9 is rotated according to the required thickness of the bread. The rotation of the rotating bar 9 drives the third gear 17 at the lower end to rotate through the knob 4. The rotation of the third gear 17 will mesh with the transmission bar 19. When the guide bar 21 is in contact with the transmission bar 19, the slider 3, guide plate 2 and guide frame 7 are adjusted laterally, pushing the bread. The bread contacts the blade 8 and holds the handle 6. The rotation of the handle 6 drives the first gear 13 to rotate through the second gear 15. The rotation of the first gear 13 drives the blade 8 to rotate between the first connecting plate 11 and the connecting block 14, rotating and cutting the bread. The cut bread is discharged from between the guide frame 7 and the blade holder 5.
