ABSTRACT:
A nut cracking device commprising a hammer having an opening for receiving the end of a nut and applying columnar pressure thereon and a plate which faces the hammer for receiving the opposite end of the nut and applying columnar pressure thereon. A spring urges the hammer toward the plate in a cracking process wherein a rotating shaft repeatedly draws and releases the hammer. A turntable, also motivated by the rotating shaft, has an opening for receiving a nut from a reservoir of nuts and transferring that nut to a rest disposed between the hammer and the plate. The rotating shaft also motivates the rest to pivot allowing the nut to fall from the rest after it has been cracked.
