ABSTRACT:
A fruit and vegetable peeler which is suitably used in general homes for peeling a small amount of fruits and vegetables, which is small-sized and light-weight, and which is further convenient in carrying and storage. A pair of clamp members are supported by a housing to lie in opposed relation, and a handle is fixed to a handle shaft extended externally of the housing. The housing accommodates a speed increasing gear mechanism for transmitting rotation of the handle shaft to a cup-shaped rotating blade, a transmission gear mechanism for transmitting the rotation of the handle shaft to the rotary shaft of the clamp member, and a rotating-blade swinging mechanism for converting the rotation of the handle shaft into a swing motion of the rotating blade along the circumference of a fruit/vegetable. The housing, a support frame for supporting the speed increasing gear mechanism, the transmission gear mechanism, and the rotating-blade swinging mechanism, and gears constituting those mechanisms are made of synthetic resin.
