Description

Title of the invention: FOOD CUTTERS, GRILL TYPE KNIVES, ALL FLAT SHAPES OR CURVES

[0001] CUTTERS CURVED KNIVES (1) CUTTERS WITH FLAT KNIVES (11)

[0002] The invention allows rapid and precise cutting of portions in plates or trays (GN = gastronorm) GN 1 / 1 (530 by 325 mm) and GN 1 / 2 (325 by 365 mm) and any format of GN gastronorm plates and trays.

[0003] The invention comprises two handles for either cutting food or making an impression so as to pre-cut portions in a Gastronorm GN tray or plate.

[0004] Appearance of curved and flat cookie cutters in all materials for GASTRONORM GN 1 / 1 (530 by 325 mm) and 1 / 2 (325 by 365 mm) trays and ALL GN TRAY AND TRAY SIZES

[0005] According to particular embodiments:

[0006] The handles are inclined but straight on the grid for the curved model [Fig. 1] so as to have more support when cutting.

[0007] The handles are not inclined on the flat model [Fig.l 1] because the grid is more intended to “print” a grid to define portions.

[0008] The handles as well as the blades will be produced in durable materials, stainless steel or other.

[0009] The number of grids and shapes per cookie cutter are all possible at the request of customers.

[0010] The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: figures [Fig.l][Fig.2][Fig.3][Fig.4][Fig.5] [Fig.6][Fig.7][Fig.8][Fig.9][Fig.l0][Fig.ll][Fig.l2][Fig.l3][Fig.l4][Fig.l5][Fig.l6][Fi g.l7][Fig.l8][Fig.l9][Fig.20][Fig.21]

[0011] [Fig.l] represents in section, the device of the invention. Presentation of the invention and its characteristics. Reasons why the invention can solve the technical problem raised. Description of the figures. 3 [Fig.l] ATTENTION the width is greater than the length to allow visualization of the positions of the handles. The tool can cut half of a GN plate of 530 mm by 325 mm (The values ​​indicated have taken into account 30 mm of withdrawal at the periphery of the plate (Edge with 45° chamfers) Front and right side of the sketch is in "alpha layer" semi-transparent at 50% in order to visualize the grid.

[0012] (11) represents in section, a variant of this device.

[0013] With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a grid (1), one of the small faces (2) of which has a shape corresponding to a GN 1 / 1 plate. The knives of the grids are the internal dimension of the GN 1 / 1 plate (3). They are fixed on a rigid frame (1-11).

[0014] The length of the blades (3) and the position (1-11-12) relative to the articulation (6) are such that a low pressure exerted by the user on the handles (4) is multiplied and allows the food to be cut (1). Dimensions of the cookie cutter grids (5-6-7-8-9-10)

[0015] For the flat cookie cutter (11) a single pressure on a food in a gastronorm GN tray or container allows "printing" positions to facilitate their cutting or pre-cutting. Two formations are possible for this cookie cutter (11-12) The blades are curved in width so as to reach the bottom of gastronorm GN containers (14) The design of the frame of the flat cookie cutter (15). Dimensions of the grids of the cookie cutters (16-17-18-19-20-21)

[0016] The handles are curved to facilitate a stable grip (4)

[0017] The handles have a numbering according to the grid formats (4) Numbers (5-6-7-8-9-10) and (16-17-18-19-20-21)

[0018] The blades have a thickness of 2 millimeters (3-14)

[0019] According to a variant not illustrated, the shapes of the grids may be various (square, rectangle, round, oval, geometric figure type and character.)

[0020] As a non-limiting example, the rigid material housing will have dimensions of the order of 2.5 cm for the width and height and 2.5 cm for the length in addition to the templates of the cutters. Protective foam will be provided to stabilize and protect the blades of the cutters for their transport.

[0021] The device according to the invention is particularly intended for cutting food before or after cooking.
