ABSTRACT:
A machine for cutting strips of peel from citrus fruit, particularly for the purpose of producing "twists" of lemon and lime, employs a cutting assembly with a circular array of cutters. The cutters have upwardly oriented, transversely extending cutting edges to simultaneously produce a multiplicity of peel strips; they are biased to radially inward positions, and are automatically retractable so as to accommodate passage of the fruit axially between them. The machine includes a cup for receiving and permitting the convenient retrieval of the fruit and strips from the machine, and normally a plunger mechanism will be provided for manually forcing the fruit through the array of cutters.
