FOOD CUTTER AND METHOD OF CUTTING FOOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240025071 titled 'FOOD CUTTER AND METHOD OF CUTTING FOOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a food cutter that consists of a blade carrier and multiple disc blades. Each disc blade has its own rotation axis, perpendicular to the food travel axis, and can rotate around it. The disc blades have a constant radius from their rotation axis and a perimeter edge with alternating peaks and valleys.

  • The food cutter has a blade carrier and multiple disc blades.
  • Each disc blade has its own rotation axis.
  • The disc blades can rotate around their rotation axis.
  • The rotation axis is perpendicular to the food travel axis.
  • The disc blades have a constant radius from their rotation axis.
  • The perimeter edge of each disc blade has alternating peaks and valleys.
  • The peaks and valleys have an amplitude parallel to the rotation axis.

Potential Applications:

  • Food processing industry
  • Commercial kitchens
  • Home cooking appliances

Problems Solved:

  • Efficient and precise cutting of food items
  • Versatile cutting options with different disc blades
  • Improved control and consistency in cutting results

Benefits:

  • Increased productivity in food preparation
  • Enhanced precision and accuracy in cutting
  • Versatility in cutting different types of food items


Original Abstract Submitted

a food cutter has a food travel axis, a blade carrier, and a plurality of disc blades mounted to the blade carrier. each of the plurality of disc blades defines a corresponding blade rotation axis. each disc blade is rotatable relative to the blade carrier about the corresponding blade rotation axis, which is perpendicular to and offset from the food travel axis. each disc blade has a perimeter edge at a constant radius from the corresponding blade rotation axis. the perimeter edge of each disc blade has a series of alternating peaks and valleys, which have an amplitude in a direction parallel to the corresponding blade rotation axis. other methods and apparatus are also disclosed.
