[0026] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0027] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the orientation descriptions, such as up, down, etc., are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0028] In the description of this utility model, "multiple" refers to two or more. The use of "first" and "second" is for distinguishing technical features only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, or implicitly indicating the number of technical features or their sequential relationship.

[0029] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The peeler according to this utility model includes a base 100 and a blade 200. The base 100 is provided with a mounting hole group, which includes two oppositely arranged mounting holes 110. The two mounting holes 110 are spaced apart and their openings face each other. The blade 200 is provided with rotating connecting parts 210 at both ends. The rotating connecting parts 210 are inserted into the mounting holes 110 one by one, and the blade 200 can rotate relative to the base 100 through the rotating connecting parts 210. The base 100 is provided with a limiting structure, which is used to limit the rotation range of the blade 200. The limiting structure is located within the mounting holes 110.

[0031] The blade 200 is rotatably inserted into the mounting hole 110 via the rotating connection 210, allowing the blade 200 to rotate relative to the base 100. The base 100 limits the rotation range of the blade 200 through a limiting structure, allowing the blade 200 to rotate within a predetermined angle range. Since the limiting structure is located inside the mounting hole 110, it does not need to protrude outward, thus avoiding obstructing the exposed area of ​​the blade 200. This makes the exposed area of ​​the blade 200 easier to clean, and the cleaning process is simpler.

[0032] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 5The mounting hole 110 has a limiting hole section 111 along the depth direction. The cross-section of the limiting hole section 111 is fan-shaped. The rotating connecting part 210 is a plate, and the hole wall of the limiting hole section 111 forms a limiting structure. Through the limiting hole section 111 with its fan-shaped cross-section, when the rotating connecting part 210 rotates to abut against the boundary of the fan shape, the rotation of the cutting edge 200 can be restricted, thereby generating a limiting function. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0033] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The limiting hole section 111 has a semi-circular cross-section. The sidewall of the limiting hole section 111 includes an arc-shaped part 1111 and a flat part 1112. The two ends of the arc-shaped part 1111 are aligned with the two ends of the flat part 1112. The rotating connecting part 210 is an arc-shaped plate. The middle part of the arc-shaped plate abuts against the flat part 1112, and both ends of the arc-shaped plate abut against the arc-shaped part 1111. The rotating connecting part 210 is an arc-shaped plate. The middle part abuts against the flat part 1112, and the two ends abut against the arc-shaped part 1111 respectively, forming a three-point contact positioning. When the blade 200 rotates, the arc-shaped plate always maintains three-point contact with the sidewall of the limiting hole section 111, thereby avoiding the risk of the blade 200 loosening, and making the rotation of the blade 200 more stable and reliable.

[0034] It is understandable that a semicircle is a sector with a central angle of 180°. It is conceivable that in other embodiments, the limiting hole segment 111 can also be a sector with a central angle of other sizes, and the rotating connection portion 210 can also be a block with a sector-shaped cross-section. Furthermore, the central angle of the rotating connection portion 210 is smaller than the central angle of the limiting hole segment 111, allowing the rotating connection portion 210 to rotate within the limiting hole segment 111, and restricting its rotation angle range by the limiting hole segment 111.

[0035] It is conceivable that in other embodiments, the limiting structure can be in other forms. For example, the rotating connection 210 is a rotating shaft, the mounting hole 110 is a circular hole, and the limiting structure includes a limiting groove and a limiting block. The limiting groove is disposed on the bottom wall of the mounting hole 110, the limiting block protrudes from the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the mounting hole 110, and the limiting block is inserted into the limiting groove. When the cutting edge 200 rotates until the end of the limiting block abuts against the limiting groove, the rotation angle of the cutting edge 200 is limited.

[0036] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 The mounting hole 110 is also provided with a circular hole section 112 along the depth direction. The circular hole section 112 is located between the limiting hole section 111 and the opening of the mounting hole 110. The cross-section of the circular hole section 112 is circular, which facilitates the manufacturing and forming of the mounting hole 110 and the alignment and assembly of the base 100 and the blade 200.

[0037] It is conceivable that in some other embodiments, the mounting hole 110 may also be an integral limiting hole segment 111, that is, an integral semi-circular hole.

[0038] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figures 1 to 4 The base 100 includes a cutter head holder 120 and a connecting frame 130. The cutter head holder 120 is rotatably mounted on the connecting frame 130. The mounting hole 110 is provided on the cutter head holder 120. The cutting edge 200 is rotatably connected to the cutter head holder 120. The cutter head holder 120 is provided with at least two sets of mounting holes. The cutting edge 200 is provided with at least two sets of mounting holes, each corresponding to one of the sets of mounting holes.

[0039] Specifically, the blade holder 120 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 130 through a hole shaft structure. The peeler is equipped with a plurality of blades 200, each blade 200 having a different blade shape. By rotating the blade holder 120, different blades 200 can be used, thereby adapting to different peeling needs and improving the flexibility of the peeler.

[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment, the cutter head holder 120 is provided with two sets of mounting holes, and the cutting edge 200 is provided with two. It is conceivable that in other embodiments, the cutter head holder 120 may also be provided with one, three or more sets of mounting holes, with each set of mounting holes used to install one cutting edge 200.

[0041] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 It also includes a reverse-rotation mechanism 300, which is disposed between the blade holder 120 and the connecting frame 130. The reverse-rotation mechanism 300 is used to limit the blade holder 120 to rotate unidirectionally relative to the connecting frame 130. By using the reverse-rotation mechanism 300, the blade holder 120 can only rotate unidirectionally relative to the connecting frame 130, making it convenient for users to apply force to peel fruits and vegetables and preventing the blade holder 120 from rotating arbitrarily during the peeling process.

[0042] Specifically, the anti-reverse mechanism 300 includes two opposing anti-reverse bodies. Each anti-reverse body includes two or more protruding teeth 310 arranged around the rotation axis of the cutter head holder 120. One side of each protruding tooth 310 has a guide surface 320, and the other side has a stop surface 330. One anti-reverse body is connected to the cutter head holder 120, and the other anti-reverse body is connected to the connecting frame 130. The connecting frame 130 is arc-shaped. When the cutter head holder 120 is subjected to a forward rotational force, the guide surfaces 320 of the two anti-reverse bodies push against each other, causing the connecting frame 130 to undergo a slight elastic deformation, allowing the cutter head holder 120 to rotate forward. When the cutter head holder 120 is subjected to a reverse rotational force, the stop surfaces 330 of the two anti-reverse bodies abut against each other, restricting the reverse rotation of the cutter head holder 120.

[0043] It is conceivable that in some other embodiments, the anti-reverse mechanism 300 may also adopt a ratchet and pawl structure to limit the unidirectional rotation of the cutter head holder 120.

[0044] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 The cutter head holder 120 is equipped with a dial 121 around its rotation axis, which facilitates the user to apply force to rotate the cutter head holder 120. The process of rotating the cutter head holder 120 is relatively convenient and reliable. Specifically, the cutter head holder 120 has two dials 121 arranged along its rotation axis.

[0045] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4 The base 100 includes a connecting frame 130, a handle 140, and a locking mechanism 150. The connecting frame 130 is rotatably connected to one end of the handle 140. The locking mechanism 150 is disposed between the handle 140 and the connecting frame 130 and is used to lock or unlock the position of the connecting frame 130 relative to the handle 140.

[0046] When the user holds the handle 140, the angle of the connecting bracket 130 relative to the handle 140 can be adjusted, so that the position of the blade 200 relative to the handle 140 can be formed in different specifications to adapt to different user habits and make the use more flexible.

[0047] Specifically, when the locking mechanism 150 is unlocked, the connecting bracket 130 can rotate relative to the handle 140. Then, the locking mechanism 150 relocks the angle position of the connecting bracket 130 relative to the handle 140, thereby realizing the adjustment of the angle of the connecting bracket 130 relative to the handle 140.

[0048] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4 The locking mechanism 150 includes a locking member 151, at least two shift slots 152, and an elastic reset member 153. The shift slots 152 are disposed on the connecting frame 130, and each shift slot 152 is evenly arranged around the rotation axis of the connecting frame 130. The locking member 151 is provided with the same number of shift blocks 1511 as the shift slots 152. Each shift block 1511 is evenly arranged around the rotation axis of the connecting frame 130. The shift blocks 1511 are adapted to the shift slots 152. The locking member 151 is movably disposed on the handle 140 and can engage or disengage the shift blocks 1511 from the shift slots 152. The elastic reset member 153 is used to drive the shift blocks 1511 to engage with the shift slots 152.

[0049] When the user drives the locking block 1511 of the locking member 151 to disengage from the gear slot 152, the connecting frame 130 can rotate relative to the handle 140. Then, when the user stops pushing the locking member 151, the elastic reset member 153 can drive the locking member 151 to reset, so that the locking block 1511 of the locking member 151 re-engages with the gear slot 152 to lock the angular position of the connecting frame 130.

[0050] Specifically, the gear slot 152 is provided with eight slots, and the locking member 151 is also provided with eight gear blocks 1511. It is conceivable that in some other embodiments, the gear slot 152 may be provided with two or more slots, and those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs.

[0051] Specifically, the elastic reset element 153 is a spring. It is conceivable that the elastic reset element 153 could also be a sheet spring or an elastic rubber block, etc.

[0052] It is conceivable that in other embodiments, the locking mechanism 150 may also be other structures. For example, the locking mechanism 150 may include a pin, a first pin hole, and a plurality of second pin holes. The first pin hole is disposed on the handle 140, and all the second pin holes are evenly arranged on the connecting frame 130 around the axis of rotation of the connecting frame 130 relative to the handle 140. When the pin is inserted into the first pin hole and one of the second pin holes, the angular position of the connecting frame 130 can be locked. When the pin is pulled out, the connecting frame 130 can rotate relative to the handle 140.

[0053] In the embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4 The locking mechanism 150 also includes a button 154. The locking member 151 is slidably disposed on the handle 140 along the rotation axis of the connecting frame 130, and the button 154 is connected to the locking member 151. The button 154 is provided to facilitate the user to press and move the locking member 151. The structure is simple and easy to use.

[0054] Specifically, the connecting frame 130 is rotatably connected to the handle 140 through a hole shaft structure. The handle 140 is provided with a sliding hole, and the locking member 151 is slidably connected to the sliding hole.
